I agree. I hate that about online dating too. You never know how many other people they are seeing and at any time they may decide they like one of their other prospects more than you and poof! Or you do one tiny thing they don't like and they move onto the next always hoping to meet some perfect person.

A little update - He came over for dinner last night. I haven't been feeling well the past couple days and after dinner I started feeling sick again. Not horrible, just not great. He watched a movie with me and rubbed my back, he was so sweet about me feeling bad. It was kinda nice to be taken care of like that! Not used to it!

Yup, this is a perfect example of pretty much exactly how i would treat a woman if i ever had one. Why do women all SAY this is what they want, and yet i am still single? Sooo frustrating.

Anyway, you seem like a nice person, although i haven't read that many of your posts... so i am glad you found someone.

Thank you. You'll find one who will appreciate you do those things for her. In my experience guys who do those kinds of things are pretty rare, so if he is the real deal I have no intention of letting him get away. Most guys probably would have been like well guess you're sick so no sex, I'm outta here!

Totally agree with lpfan921. You represent yourself very well through your posts, so it's not a surprise that men enjoy your company. Hope it works out. Remember: when things are going well, lay low on the sites. They'll be there tomorrow. GL!

LOL! Overheating is likely. As it stands now he is über attentive when I show up in the lobby and he is full of compliments (and jokes and innuendo). He seems like a generally flirty guy but seems to be upping things. I am puzzled. [when he acknowledges other people he talks about the weather and sports, I've been getting personal info from him]


I am on my phone, please forgive the typos.

The great part is he does call and text reliably, so I really wouldn't have to wait anyway. Maybe there is hope yet!

How is everyone else's luck these days?
Sweet. Good for you, kiki.

I had a first date recently and it went well. We're going to FFF fest this weekend. Second date is usually make or break for me.
