I really don't want to be this way but it seems uncontrollable and I notice I only go online when I'm in that type of mood and care nothing about dating. It's like omnce a woman to come over to meet me and we have our fun, I want her to quickly leave so I can get back to the things below I love

sports
internet
tv
reading
friends
music

UNTIL I get that feeling again and then I'm back on the hunt. Is this confirmation that I have lost interest in finding love? Or do you think that because it is soooooooooooo had finding someone you want to date that it's a lot easier to have a FWB?

Any other guy ever get this feeling or am I the only one on the planet that feels this way which may mean I'm not normal?
Ummm...I'm just going by your posts here, but you've never exactly struck me as all that interested in dating in the first place. And from what you've written before, it never sounded like you had, or wanted, a FWB. You might have had FBs, but not a FWB.

Maybe I'm jumping to conclusions here, and I may have you wrong, but were you EVER looking for love? You've always seemed to me to be a sex-addicted teenager with the impulse control of a 5-year-old tweaking on meth and the gender sensitivities of a Viking attack. I can get wanting a playmate that fits your fetishes, and Philly women can be tough when it comes to dating--I live near Philly, so I have some experience in this. But it never seemed like you were actually looking for a real, genuine emotional connection. Maybe you're playing a persona on here, but I just don't see any attempt on your part to actually look for love.

Just a stage that you are going through. All men have stages that we go through before we are ready to settle down. Just be honest with yourself and with the ladies that you hookup with. Will make life a little more easier for you.

happens more often than guys would admit. this is just a guess, but I think many guys see a "loving relationship" as simply companionship, sex, caring partner, and hopefully a good mother of their children. And, yes, an LTR or marriage is not always blissful, you take the good with the bad --and every guy knows there is some bad they would rather not live with (and i'm sure it's the same for women).

However, i'm not sure how old you are but you will reach an age >30yo where you will end up with fewer single male friends to hang out with. many will be married and have kids, and you will want at least a cool cute live-in partner.

Finally, there is a point where you have had enough break ups or a divorce, as in my case, where the heart just doesn't "fall in love" as easily as it once did. Sure, you will experience the euphoria of connecting with someone new, but after a while it's just two ppl with different lives, backgrounds and challenges trying to create a common life plan where at least you mutually get your needs met and hopefully enjoy the ride while doing so.

So if you are getting your needs met and enjoying life as it is with your current situation, you have nothing to worry about.

If his alias is his birthdate, he's about 33, (but he sounds more like 23 judging by his posts).

I love doing many of those same general things. I find I love them even more when I can experience and do them with my friends and particularly with my best friend

My best friend is my wife.

Being with the right woman should be enhancing your enjoyment of everything in your life, not detracting from them. If it is detracting, she isn't the right woman.

No. It means you've had too long a dry spell.
