It works when the truth is upfront and out in the open.

Default This sounds pretty archaic

Looking back on this it sounds pretty extreme. I guess there's no graceful way to back out of it but in hindsight I would exchange the word reproduction with "marriage". If you agreed with me the first time- I respect the hell out of you- but thats not where I was going when I started the original post. sheeesh....

Usually people that have sex with each other should at least be friends or at peace with each other but whatever floats your boat...each of us are different...I prefer to stay friends with my lovers.
You would say that to your heartbroken daughter after she has been used buy her boyfriend?! You shouldn't have kids. What a horrible thing to teach them!

OMG I have made this exact statement I don't know how many times!!!!! How many divorces are caused when a harried wife, with a couple of kids tugging on her skirt, looks around and says.... "This isn't the way I was TOLD it would be" and decides...."Screw it, I'm out of here", and goes off to look for Prince Charming II, only to discover that the fairy tale will NEVER be true and that you can either accept life for what it is, or search forever for something that does not exist.

The romance novel writers of the world have done humanity a huge disservice, IMHO.

Reps to you SanAntoQT!

You're right! I've come to the understanding that the choice pretty much is between wanting to be married or not. The partner doesn't matter as much. With each new one you acquire just a different set of problems to adjust to all over again. If you'd rather be married, better deal with the known devil because the next one may very well have bigger horns....

This thread is supposed to be about the nuts and bolts. We need real ideas that work folks! Not a bunch of moral broo-haha!

I've only had sex on the first date once, and the first date was preceeded by much chatting on the internet.

I like the beer and saying what they want to hear approach, it has promise and has been noted.

The huge amounts of cash suggestion isn't feasible.

OK, get cracking. Let those creative juices flow!

Have you missed the post about the fake ATM receipts not long ago (the guy was writing his phone number on them )?

Well Jefetio either she will or she wont. Go out with women that are looking for a good roll in the hay, let her know what your intentions are then wine and dine her. Its not really that difficult.

Make a lot of deep eye contact and somehow get on a sexual topic of conversation but nothing perverse and stand real close to your potential mate .... after a while just ask if you want to chill back at your place or her place, it worked on me before....
