Good for you! Finally a decent man who can admit he wants a meaningful relationship and not just a romp in the sack. There are others out there, but not too many that will openly admit it. I think the idea of a dog is great, if your not a dog person and don't have the time, how bout a cat? They are independed and a pet can really add a lot to your life. I say adopt one and give it chance, many guys who think they aren't cat people end up loving them. Cherish this time, maybe travel or hit the town on your own. Be outgoing and friendly, just take your time and the right person will come along..

I am hot, intelligent, and tons of fun. But the guys just don't want to take hold of what could be a true blessing (a relationship with me). Oh well, their loss. I am having fun being single, taking care of myself, and having fun (most of the time all alone).
And you are apparently a snippy, bitter queen

I'm hardly ever needy and WTF does baby-like mean? I go through a brief spell of lonliness and you jump all over me? That tells me more about your own insecurity and neediness.

He's been a bit of drama lately only cause a few of his friends are moving back to WA and his ex (who messes with his head) is coming for a visit in August. Me and "J" are going to take him out this weekend and cheer him up Plus, he's going to Miami memorial day weekend and that'll really get him out of his funk. The boys in Miami will love him. He's H-O-T!!!!
HA! I swear I was going to tell Angel not to give up and tell him to read your posts about "J"! Guess I don't have to now.

Hope things with you and "J" are still going strong. Miss reading your adventures.

Angel, Give the kid a break! He's young and I don't think he meant his post to be "snippy" (is that a word?) I think he was saying in his own way to just get over yourself and move on with life (sound familiar..lol)?

Hey there! I've been "lurking" but not really posting.

Yep -- Angel lives one door down from me in "Melrose Place" and knows all about me and "J". He's the one that coined the "Gerard Butler with Zac Efron" thing His response to my romance of late is "I want one too"

"J" and I are in bliss. Life is life and it's not without uphill climbs, but all in all we are quite happy. He just feels like home to me

I've been single for about two months now (not the longest stretch) and I guess I'm just lonely It wasn't like that before when I've been single. I partied down and flirted, etc., and had a great time. Maybe since I'm older now (33) it's different. I miss the comfort of a relationship and sharing my life. I miss the playfulness and romance.

Okay -- no adivce needed here. I just really needed to get that out and my friends see me as "Mr. Independent" and didn't want to let them see this side of me
On one hand I see that you aren't asking for advice. On the other a post like this begs for it.

You're 33 man. This is the time in your life that you should enjoy life to the fullest. You've passed 30 3years ago. You know what I would do if I was your age and didn't have ties to anything? I'd go on about 4 crazy vacations a year. Europe (I've always wanted to cross Europe on a bike), Austrailia, Mexico, etc.

You don't want to wake up alone and drink your one cup etc etc etc. OK don't do that. Get up and go to the local coffee shop and talk politics with the local loud mouths. After work don't go right home. Go to the gym or buy a bike and go riding with a group of guys. Or go to a bar where you can BS with the locals.

You don't miss romance dude! You miss getting laid! And after all....getting laid and romance is the same to us, no?

omg. do not take this guys advice. having ties to somebody shouldn't be torment and torture , it is wonderful if you are with the right person. You should still be able to do stuff alone and have your individuality though...a perfect balance...ya know.

Other than that your 20s are over with. By your 30s you need to start forming real relationships with people. I don't see anything wrong with riding your bike or talking it up at a local bar but in your 30s you should be more serious and matured.

. You should be glad to have friends and people to go out with. I hope that i do not seem mean. I do not have any close friends. I have my boyfriend of 7 years and 2 teenage kids.. and that is the way that i like it. When i was 13years old. I had a close friend. I loved her and she took my boyfriend. So i do not how to make friends. I talk to females but will never get close. You will be okay so just enjoy herself.
