This is me. I went out on a date from hell last night. It was so bad that I was telling my friends how terrible it was, while I was on the date. Do I see myself giving up? No way in hades. A bad date tells me I'm one step closer to finding the person that truly wants to spend time with me and vice versa.
I still feel that people who give up on dating are unwilling to change who they are, or what they are attracted too. Maybe you are hurt all the time because you are attracted to people who treat you poorly. Take some time and explore why you find yourself attracted to the same types of people.
Giving up on dating just means you will date the same type of person, you stopped dating to avoid, when you resume dating again.
What do you mean, giving up on dating means you're giving up on dating period. If your running back to the type of people you've dated before than you're not really giving up.

You realize you're suggesting a Leopard trade in it's spots for zebra strips.
And, what makes you think I'm ever going to resume dating? With the women in this part of the country....
I don't think so...

Say you give up dating for a year, because you are tired of dating aholes. You get comfortable with the idea of dating again, and you end up dating another ahole. Sometimes it's not the idea of giving up on dating, but changing the types of people you are attracted too.
Don't we tell people here that all the time when they are getting played by people, to leave them? The only time I ever stopped dating was when I was in a relationship. Otherwise, it's just a date, not a marriage. If it works cool. If it doesn't, yet frustrating, that's cool too.
First of all, there are plenty of non-aholes out there.
They may not be brash or flashy...they may be that ordinary woman in her gym clothes perusing the veggies or that guy with the little scar on his hand pumping gas next to you...
They are there. I know these people. We are these people.
I 'gave up' when I was 12 and realized guys are basically useless to me except for using them for my amusement and entertainment.
And, that is just one of a number of reasons why I'm not amusing and entertaining you. Why I'm not in the circle of fools trying to get your attention.

You have amused me as here you are on page 4 commenting on my post on page 2.
