Article: Are You A Desperate Dater?

I have to agree that the guy who brought the rose is desperate and she was right to be afraid. I would have been under similar circumstances.

Wow, I need to meet more women like you. I'm of a similar mindset as you, and women tell me they don't want to date a "poly" or a "harem builder."

(edit: I deleted the stuff about the rose after reading the article... a rose by itself sounds nice, I wouldn't mind getting one, but yeah, the guy sounds like a problem).

Thank you for posting this article, i agree with it and emailed it to a single friend who tends to come across very desperate in her first few dates...she just got dumped by a divorced guy after 1 month because she started talking about having babies and daycare, and he didnt want to think that far ahead so soon!

I would think he wouldn't want think about marriage and babies at 50 with a divorce under his belt.

Pretty much a "duh", moment.
