The Most Important Dating Lesson
Anatomy of Date: After.

Last night was the season premier of ABC’s The Bachelor. If you, like me, dedicated two hours of your life to the gloriousness that is 30 woman fighting for one man, then you too probably heard a whole lotta, “I’m sorrys.” At first I thought, ok yea, I get it. ABC is just trying to make sure we don’t see Brad as an ass. But after he apologized for what had to be the 100th time, I got annoyed. Ok really, what did he do that was so wrong?! So he dumped two girls. Maybe it was because he wasn’t ready or maybe they just weren’t the right girls for him. But what should he have done differently? Clearly he didn’t go on The Bachelor with the intention of screwing over two girls, so saying he should have never been on the show is a moot point. But once he realized he had made a mistake, how does everyone think he should have handled it? Married one of the poor girls even though he didn’t want to? Uh no. Dumping them really was the only way to go.

The whole Brad situation got me thinking. I think we all need need to get over our dislike of dumping. Don’t get me wrong, I know how much breaking up sucks, believe me I do, but it is part of dating. Sure, I’ve been on a bit of a dumping spree this last year. And yes, that leaves me to many of nights alone with my TV which sometimes kinda sucks. But, I strongly believe that it is better to end something you know isn’t going to work and to end it quickly.

So if you are on the fence, here’s why dumping is awesome:

• It’s challenging to meet someone un-dumpworthy if you are always with another guy. Mr. Right isn’t going to come ask you out while you’re eating dinner with Mr. Wrong.

• In the short time that you are single post-dump, you can focus your attention on yourself. We all know that dating someone takes a lot of your time and energy, so why waste such precious commodities on someone you know isn’t right? Instead you can use that time to get yourself skinny. Or get a raise.

• Once you’ve done the dumping deed, your self esteem will improve. It’s hard to feel awesome about yourself when you are in a relationship that is less awesome.

• Dumping someone is kinder to them (and kinder is always better). Why drag someone along and waste their time if you’ve already decided they aren’t for you?

• And lastly, it’s better to dump than be dumped, right? OK possibly not a reason most people will cop to, but the truth is, the only thing worse than dragging out a relationship that isn’t working, is dragging out a relationship and then getting dumped.

So Brad, please, for the love of God, stop apologizing for dumping the girls. You did the right thing and heck, those girls are doing just fine. (Did anyone see Deanna’s rock??) And ladies, keep dumping in mind the next time you see a whole bunch of red flags pop up. If nothing else, dumping your dude will mean you’ll have more time to watch The Bachelor.

For a woman, cosmetic application is a well thought out ritual during the first breathe of a potential romance.I make a living at painting faces, some more challenging than others, but just about every one could stand to benefit from some kind of brush stroke – if they want strokes in other regions.

But makeup is a powerful sort of magic, and when abused it overwhelms the subject to her detriment . Lash growth serums that make your eye area burgundy, $400 dollar facials and face creams, all kinds of injections, plumpers that make the face look bloated and frankly lips that look like they’ve been subjected to a heavyweight boxers left hook. Then there’s threading, tiny threads wrap around the hair follicle and yanked out, lasers zapping away till you’re raw as well as peels that take off an entire layer of skin. Is this what nature intended?

Sometimes I find myself asking: what did the cavewomen do? Did the cavemen kick them out of the bear skin bed and say “go get a brazilian!” Wave their elephant tusk and say “get a facial!” Perhaps their species became extinct because the neanderthal dudes couldn’t get it up, forcing the evolution of spas and dermatologists, sephoras, salons and tweezers.

Certainly makeup plays a role in instilling a feeling of confidence for a woman, which is high on the list of desirable traits in a mate. As well as a nice fragrant smell and not of a freshly killed bison, silky hair and beardless smooth skin. Flirty eyes that bewitch with a glowing intensity. The lesson here is: enhance just enough to attract, but not so much that you are not being honest. Maybe put the money you are spending on beauty treatments toward some other beneficial treatments, like, say, hypnotism, to see why you are constantly beating yourself up, thinking if only you were prettier you could get the guy. One more coat of mascara and swipe of gloss will not make a difference to a guy who cannot be tied up, bogged down, committed to anything or anyone or can only go as far as a one night stand- no matter how good you look.

A huge thank you goes out to Cinderita for her wonderful blog she dedicated to me today. Her generosity, kindness and support of me are never ending. I really have found a kindred spirit in her and feel so blessed to know her. I am wishing her an early Happy Birthday for tomorrow and hope that the upcoming year bring her nothing but happiness, love, laughter, and beautiful memories!

I constantly try to convince my male friends that good guys really don’t finish last. I am adamant that good guys do get the girl; I tell them this every time they are down. I say it because I want it to be true. I say it because it should be true; I’m just not sure that it is anymore.

Let me explain myself before the torches are lit and the pitchforks are sharpened. What I’m trying to say is that in my experience every woman wants their man to be a bit of a bad boy; at least I know I do. I have already spoken about what I want in a man in other blogs. Click here if you haven’t read it yet. Essentially I want somebody strong, who makes me feel like a woman, who doesn’t back down from a disagreement just because he thinks that will make me happy. I want somebody who challenges me. I need him to respect me though.

So, I guess the real problem for me here is how to I define a bad boy? I guess for me it’s somebody I’m not bringing home to meet the parents. Somebody that I almost don’t want to tell my friends about because I know they will say, “Oh honey, he’s not right for you.” A bad boy is emotionally unavailable (which we already know I find yummy). He could be married, in a relationship, or on the rebound from one. He could be a bit too rough around the edges, a little too eager for a fight and doesn’t have the kind of attitude that encourages a serious commitment. You know the kind, the have fun, live in the moment, make no plans for the future kind of guys.

I want to say that these guys immediately turn me off…they don’t. Sometimes a bad boy is just what the doctor ordered. Sometimes I have no problem with meeting a guy at a bar and by the end of the night kissing him in the corner with no intention of getting his number or seeing him again. I know my moral compass doesn’t always point due north…but sometimes I don’t want it to. Sometimes I want to be a little naughty, a little careless. Sometimes I want to let loose and just stop over thinking. I don’t think this means I am a bad person.

What I am saying is that I like a bad boy now and then. I worry that I like them too much. I keep saying that I want a relationship, that I want to hold out for the respect and treatment I deserve and I do mean it. I want the treatment and respect of not being involved with a man who already has another woman. I want to be “the woman” sans the “other”. However, the kind of man I am attracted to doesn’t really have “a woman”.

What if I really do enjoy the thrill of being a mistress more than the stability of a true relationship? What if that’s why I couldn’t marry Joe? What if that’s why desire men I know I can’t have. What if it’s not really about protecting me from getting involved and thereby getting hurt? What if I just don’t know how to be in a healthy relationship anymore?

I know that I’m being silly. I am a sweet girl, incapable of hurting somebody’s feelings without insane guilt and crying if I let somebody down or upset them. I am incredibly loyal and understanding with my family and friends. I am a giving, loving, forgiving, person. I am good. I am. I know that I have a ton to offer the right guy.

My problem is that the times in my life where I have had the “good guy”. The sweet, respectable, my family loves him, stable, hand holding, “yes dear” kind of guy; I wanted to scream with boredom. I literally wanted to run screaming for the first guy with tattoos and a motorcycle (maybe not literally but you know what I mean). I had the perfect “good guy” in Joe but did I stay with him…nope. There was a part of me that knew I would be loved and cared for, protected for the rest of my life.

A part of me loved that idea, but a bigger, louder part of me was raging inside telling me to run as fast as possible. That part of me knew I wasn’t going to be happy with “nice” and “safe” and “comfortable”. I wanted heat and passion and chaos. I wanted somebody who wasn’t afraid to disagree with me, somebody who pushed me to be more instead of saying, “You are perfect just the way you are.” Because I wasn’t perfect then…I’m not now either.

I want somebody who isn’t afraid of my sarcastic and sometimes acidic tongue. Who can look at me raging, screaming, and yelling and kiss me until I shut up…turning that rage into passion. I want somebody who will let me be moody but after an appropriate amount of time, tell me to suck it up…that my life isn’t bad and I need to stop whining. I need somebody who isn’t going to treat me like I’m made of glass and need to be tip toed around and treated with kid gloves. I’m a strong woman and I need a strong, rough hands, big shoulders, no nonsense kind of guy.

So, when I say that the good guys finish first I’m afraid I may be lying; to them and to myself. I don’t know how or why it happened but I think I am turned off by the “good guy”. Maybe I just haven’t me the right “good guy” yet? I hope that’s what it is. Is there a good guy out there who can be all the things I need but still know that the woman in me wants flowers, for no reason at all, on no special day, once a year? Who knows that subtle possessive movements like the hand on the small of my back absolutely melt me? Who will be strong, aggressive, and stubborn and love that I’m all of those things too? Who won’t want a woman who is timid and acquiesces to his every command?

Is there such a thing a “good” bad boy? If not I’m not sure there is a whole lot of hope for me. Maybe it’s my fate to be in these horrible relationships…bouncing from one unavailable man to the next. I sure hope not, but I’m just not convinced that the man I described actually exists outside of cheesy romance novels featuring rugged a Scottish Chieftain who subdue the wild Scottish lass with a chip on her shoulder. I’m not sure they make men like that anymore. I think men are so afraid that they will be taken as disrespectful or rude that they polish themselves up a bit too much for my taste.

This could just be me. It’s just something I’ve been contemplating a lot as I look at my past relationships and the kinds of men I am attracted to. I look around at the places I go and the men I see and the ones that are ruggedly good looking know it and are so full of themselves it’s not even funny; the others tend to be over polished or preppy and hold no appeal to me. I am starting to feel like that “bad boy” pull is only found in the thrill of being “the other woman” and I honestly don’t want that…I’m just not sure where to find him. And if somebody says, “You’ll find it when you aren’t looking” I swear, I will virtually slap you!

Of course, I’m probably being overly emotional and dramatic about this…but it’s a legitimate fear for me. After some comments by Drake and George, and a males take on an opinionated strong woman scaring away most men I really am worried I’ll never find somebody who appreciated me for who I truly am. I’m worried those kind of rough, ready for a challenge men, have died of and been replaced by the trendy, Starbucks latte drinking, overly sensitive, always agreeable men that make me cringe.

Alright…enough of this rant. I think I got my point across. So, readers, as always I look forward to your take on this. Your feed back is a highlight of my day and I value them highly. Thanks again everyone.

Once again - I've been lax in writing. One, I had a long, stressful work trip last week. Two, I just had nothing to write about. I was even going to write here the other day that I really had nothing going on in the man department.

Well -- some funny / interesting updates as of this week.

First -- some backtracking. I hinted the last time that there was a hot young Brazilian in the picture. And there was -- for a whole three dates. The Carioca was 29, and was really into me - he'd text me how psyched he was that we'd met, he thought I was fun, smart, beautiful, etc. I enjoyed the attention, but also took it with a grain of salt.

Good thing, because after the third date, he texted the next day that he'd had a great time, and I texted back -- then radio silence. Not a peep from him after that, even after I sent one last note a few days later.

Surprise, surprise, that a hot 20-something Brazilian (living in NY) would be flaky -- you don't say??!

Fast-forward to this week -- a date with a guy I'll call Richie Rich (#203). Seemed a bit nebbishy and socially awkward, but I was still willing to get a second drink and give him a shot. He mentioned that he'd been written up in the Times earlier this month - seems he recently came into some money. About five million dollars' worth. Er, thanks, but you can't buy my interest. After the second drink, I knew there wouldn't be a second date.

Don Corleone: (spitting image). There will not even BE a first date with this one, but I had to share this gem of an email from him:
Cancel whatever you were doing Friday night because your plans just got better.

You'll meet me in midtown - there is nothing more enjoyable than Manhattan this time of year. My friend So-And-So just opened BlahBlah restaurant (website) - a really sexy, upscale and intimate place. We'll meet there for a cocktail at 8:00. I'll get us a cozy table where we can sit close to each other, talk, look at each other, touch (a little - or a lot) and get to know one another.

We'll have a couple of drinks and then walk holding hands uptown to Herald Square and check out all the city has to offer this time of year with the holiday spirit. We'll window shop and then go into one of my favorite stores, Victoria Secret. There we can flirt with all of the sexy lingerie and if you play your cards right I may even buy you a little something :)

We'll end the date by me either escorting you to the subway or driving you home. Either way, we will part with the sexiest, hottest, most romantic kiss we've ever had on a first date, and we won't be able to wait to meet again :)

No. No, we won't. Creepy much?

After all this? An awesome first date last night -- #204. (clarification: NOT with Don Corleone!) Cute, smart, fun, open, good chemistry. Before we said goodnight, we had plans in place for this weekend. I'm smiling now, replaying this in my head. Very much looking forward to seeing him again.

But let's wait another date or two before I write any more about him. Managing expectations, and all that. Plus, I still need to come up with an appropriate blog name for him -- it's so much easier to name the bad dates than it is the good ones!

Several months ago, I wrote about an evening out with New Guy (I really need to come up with a better name for him) -- a refresher: he and I dated for a few months last fall, but he was just out of a serious relationship (and a long marriage just before that), and needed to have some solo time. We stopped dating, but remained friends.

On that last night out (platonic, with mutual friends), he mentioned that he was dating someone new, but was clear with her that he absolutely was not looking for anything serious. I realized at that time that I couldn't help myself: I still had feelings for this guy.

He and I have remained friends, but hadn't seen each other since then -- until this weekend. We've been meaning to catch up for ages, but one of us always seems to be traveling lately, so we finally picked a date a month in advance and made plans to cook dinner at his place.

It was a fabulous night, eating in his yard on a perfect, balmy summer evening -- but holy cow -- I realized that I *still* have feelings for him. He's just one of the most remarkable guys I've ever met -- smart, considerate, a great listener, funny (and he happens to be a good cook) -- we just click.

And yet -- very appropriate that the issue of timing has come up on this blog of late -- maybe it's bad timing, maybe he's just not into me. Whatever it is -- it's a sucky feeling that I still care for him (a lot), but he's just not available right now.

Oy… for so long, I had done such a good job of filing him away in the recesses of my mind. Seeing him brought all those feelings back to the surface, maybe more so because I’m in a frustrating place right now. Nothing I can really do about it, except try to stifle these feelings (again) and hope they stay buried. And maybe meet someone equally amazing who IS available.

*
The next day, I had lunch plans with a new J-guy -- let's call him George, since he resembles my high school boyfriend with that name (he's First Date #132 since March 2005). I went into the date feeling physically heartsick over the situation with New Guy, and found myself thinking that if this was a bad date, that would only drive me deeper into the black hole I'd dug for myself.

Thankfully, George was a good distraction. Funny, cute, fun. He expressed interest in seeing me again, so I'm hoping that happens sometime this week.

And then -- another good distraction from New Guy, and the NY dating scene in general -- as of next week, I'm going to be out of town for almost three weeks, on vacation with a good friend to Some Exotic Country. The timing couldn't be better! (for a change)

Over at Simone Grant's dating and relationship blog is a post about having exit interviews with former partners. You might be thinking, what?! But let's read her introduction to the idea first.

Let’s face it, most of us don’t exactly get “closure” when we go through breakups. Sometimes, after much time has passed, it’s hard to even pin point what were the exact reasons for splitsville. For the past year, I’ve been playing around with this idea of an Exit Interview. We have exit interviews when we leave a job, so why don’t we have exit interviews when we leave a person?

The premise of the Exit Interview is to reveal each other’s strengths and weaknesses, reasons for departure, and key takeaways for the next relationship. I know, this all sounds so corporate, but the Exit Interview is most successful when it’s mostly void of emotions. As a dating coach, I recommend all of my clients to first close the ex files for at least 3 months and then conduct the interview. This way, it allows both parties a time to chill out and think (somewhat) rationally.

I'm interested in this experiment in trying to formalize "finishing your business" from the past. On the one hand, it seems too business-like and somewhat unrealistic. I don't think I agree with Simone's view that the best "interview" is one mostly void of emotions. When I consider the few times I have had something like this occur with a partner at the end of the relationship, some kind of emotional release was an important part of the process of letting go. Expression and release on my own, but also expression and release with the other person. Just having a dry and rational analysis feels way too much like an exit interview at a job, which I think is a nice model, but not to be followed to the letter.

On the other hand, I really like the sense of consciously attempting to have closure. To spend time with someone you might have loved, or even still love, and sharing something with each other that could ultimately aid both of you moving forward in a more healthy way.

One of the problems, though, is that often, doing such an interview is either next to impossible, or might simply lead to more damage being done. Some people cut and run and don't look back, and trying to connect with them is pretty pointless. Some relationships end due to physical or emotional patterns of violence, and going back to meet with those folks might lead to more trauma on both ends. And some relationships simply weren't that deep to begin with, and reaching out as part of the closure process might not mean a whole lot to either person, even if seeing each other would be just fine.

The Two-Sided Tale of a One-Night Stand

It seems there is much focus on the male love organ these days (as if there ever wasn’t) when it comes to science. Time Healthland has posted two pieces so far this week about lengthening and strengthening the male member.

The first was about a new condom dubbed the ‘viagra condom‘, which basically contains a gel inside the condom that can keep men at attention for longer periods of time. Researchers note this may be especially beneficial for men where condoms seem to quickly take the wind out of their…well, penis. More up, more safe sex, we all assume.

Today’s article is about supposed techniques, both surgical and non-surgical, to make men hang a little lower, if you know what I’m sayin’ (and of course you do). Yep, some researchers deemed it important enough to actually find out if spam emails have some bite behind their bark. Looks like the best choice is the “traction method,” where a penile extender stretched the phallus daily. (hmm. And ‘ouch’.) Since participants ‘grew’ an average of .67 inches while erect, I’m sure men will be running to their local traction method specialist.

Seriously, guys, just work with what you got. For your sake and ours.

This. It’s a simple escalation, you know, and they know. That they aren’t lying, but because of the attraction already established.. it puts out a “fun” reason to send photos of herself. Hence why it works almost, every single time.

You can use it against her with other things
– I’m sunbaking atm
– Trying on new dresses at store (Girls love to send you photos of potential clothing they can buy to impress, and usually send a sexier photo in the change rooms)
– Just got out of the shower

Anything that involves the girls body, can be used against her basically.

Or you could just be her student… BTW this chick (teacher) was sampling more than one student.

http://dissention.wordpress.com/2012/10/17/anna-michelle-walters-and-justin-foster-oct-17-2012/

I hear about another of these female teachers fucking her students literally every week now. I’m starting to think they’re trying to one-up each other. Sorry, Mary Kay LeTourneau , you were born before your time.

Meanwhile, the witch hunt for the male teacher continues, six months later, despite (or because of) the fact that he didn’t break the law: http://www.news10.net/news/article/212088/2/Former-student-accuses-Modesto-teacher-of-intimate-relationship

8 Facts about Cheating

I’m currently reading a book called, The Law of Attraction, by Michael J. Losier. It’s basically an introduction to NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming).

Anyway, the chapter I’m on now basically talks about how the words you use become part of your vibe.

There’s also another book on a similar subject that my grandfather always recommended called The Power of Positive Thinking. He truly believed in that. Even on his deathbed, when he hadn’t walked in a year and a half, he was telling us what he was going to do “when [he] walks out of here next week.” He could’ve just been crazy on the meds…

That may not be the best example…

Anyway…

There is a lot of truth to this shit though. Go around complaining about shit all of the time and you will really believe your world sucks, and you will be a Debbie Downer type of person who brings other people’s moods down as well.

At my old job, I knew a couple of guys who always complained about everything. They would even call me sometimes to complain about shit in their lives – how our job sucks, how long until the firm goes under?, how long until we all get fired?, they can’t get a date, life is unfair, etc, etc. What I start doing – ignoring their fucking calls! Shit was annoying, all they did was complain. I’d ignore them on Facebook chat, I’d invite groups of guys from work to go out to happy hour and purposely not invite them – it’s not that I didn’t like them as people – I just didn’t want to be around people who complain about every fucking thing and bring me down. Shit’s a real mood killer.

I’ve been out a friend before and been like “I’m going to go approach those two girls over there” and he said shit like “man, naw, don’t do that, they’re not even that hot, they’re probably stuck up too, they don’t deserve your attention.” And straight up make me not want to approach them. Yet, the same dude hasn’t gotten any pussy in years and he’s trying to have high standards saying some legit 7′s aren’t “even that hot”. Fucking mood killer, dude….

You buzz kill ass dudes… don’t blow my high…

For real though.

But, it makes you realize how powerful words are. I’m trying to work on that shit myself. I bum myself out too much by saying shit like “I don’t have any good wings to go out with.” or “this city sucks” or whatever else. And it makes me not want to do shit.

I need to work on that. My goal is to make the best out of any situation. A lot of times when I have a bad experience and get frustrated or pissed off, I look back on it the next day and realize it was my fault. I shouldn’t let little shit get to me. I could’ve just made the best out of a situation and shit would be cool.

So, I’ve decided to work on a list of things I’ve said recently that was either me complaining and/or ruining my own fun time, and then work on phrases that I should’ve/could’ve said instead.

Negative phrases
> Positive switches
Damn, this city sucks
> There’s some cool parts of town worth checking out I don’t have any good wings here
> I could probably meet some cool guys while I’m out too I need someone to daygame with
> It’s cool to roll solo, just do a couple of warm-up approaches and vibe I don’t know if I should approach her, she looks busy
> I’m going to make this bitch’s fucking day I hate living with my parents
> It makes the most sense to stay here temporarily before I go off to grad school I don’t have place to fuck her
> I’ll fuck her in the bathroom or in the car I’m broke
> I got a new job, I’m doing well for myself This place is lame, there’s nobody here
> I’m about to make the most of it and have fun I can’t believe this is happening right now
> I’m comfortable with this I have no idea what I want to do with my life
> I’m about to network my ass off and find something interesting I wonder what she thinks of me
> This chick loves me, I’m the most amazing guy she’s ever met. I played that horribly, I wonder how bad I fucked it up
> No big deal. She’ll get over it These dudes are lame
> I bet these guys are interesting if I give them a chance I hope I don’t lose the attraction she has for me
> She’s cool, but if I’m around her too much, I might get sick of her, I need my space This shit is boring
> I’m going to amuse myself No clothes fit me
> There’s bound to be some cool shit that fits right at one of these stores, I”m going try a bunch of shit on and see. Damn, she’s not as attractive as I thought.
> This chick is real cute, I’m going to fuck the shit out of her

Dr. Damage, who throws nickels around like manhole covers, sees your problem in chiefly economic, as opposed to romantic, terms. If the Doctor were Larry Summers, he’d say you are robbing Peter and robbing Paul, too. In this way, you’re a little like Bernie Madoff, but without polo ponies. But we digress. We see some hope here- by purloining only $20 per visit rather than your ex’s credit card or a c-note, we see restraint and, we dare say, responsibility in your actions. Plus, unless you’re not telling the whole truth, the fact that you are not making surreptitious withdrawals from your new boyfriend is cause for hope. Because, as the good Doctor learned in medical school (he paid attention in this class), it is really up to your boyfriend to make additional withdrawals, if you know what we mean.

As you note, these are hard economic times that require extraordinary measures. Some would suggest that you broaden your revenue-producing activities by involving yet another unwitting former boyfriend. But the Doctor would advise against this. He has been in the unwitting seat before, and would not wish it upon any other males who are as dumb as he was as a young man. To fashion a plan to get back down to one boyfriend at a time, as this is the only sustainable arrangement going forward, the Doctor suggests that rather than spending the ill-gotten gains on things that you don’t really need, that you invest 50% of it in troubled assets and credit-default swaps which are risky (but not more so than having two relationships and stealing from one of the suckers), and the rest in bonds and T-bills. Naturally, as you approach retirement, you’d probably want to adjust those investment ratios, but if you’re sleeping w/ two men now, the Doctor surmises that you’re still a few years away from the dreaded AARP discounts. — DD

Guys know the answer to this! They just don’t want to recognize it. They have no problem buying drinks for girls while they are “shopping” for one to date… but as soon as it becomes dating, for some reason they forget. Dating amnesia.

Haha yes, true Natalie. Dating amnesia seems to be a bit of an epidemic, really…

Thanks for the comment :)
I don’t agree since I don’t buy drinks for girls at bars. I think it’s stupid because I don’t like the concept of buying a girl and making her feel indebted to talk to me. I’m hilarious and witty and she can buy her own drink.

I have no issues paying for girls on dates, but it’s obvious that some women want equality+. ;)

How can it be equality when you expect us also to pay all the time? It gets old after a while.

Buying drinks in a bar is another story and I agree with you there, but I think the whole “it’s obvious some women want equality” is a bit of an urban myth. Sure, we don’t want to be prejudiced against, but I assure you, not one of the ladies I have talked to in my entire life has said, “man, I really wish a guy would let me pay.” Perhaps there is one loud-mouthed girl out there, spreading these lies – but I promise you – 99 percent of girls are hoping the guy will pay. And I also think equality isn’t the right word. Men and women aren’t equal. I think women just want to be seen with equity. As for it getting old after a while, I can think of quite a few female things that get old after a while too… Doesn’t mean we can just abandon them. :)

Thanks for reading!

So I have a question, I have this really good friend that is a girl, and we used to date a while back and have become just really good friends since then. when we were dating I paid for absolutely everything. now that we are just friends, anytime we go out to dinner or a movie or anything its still expected that I pay. is she just spoiled or is this really normal? lol

Oh yes. The “tell him what you think he wants to hear to make him like you more” tactic.

Doesn’t work if you’re into him.

Remember the girl I mentioned in my other post? I have a bullet list in my head of every single thing she told me that she thought I wanted to hear and the corresponding statement she made about what she actually thinks/feels. She was able to keep up the facade for a month but in the end I know what she’s really like.

First thing she told me was that she didn’t believe in marriage, couple weeks later she says she wants to have kids in the future, after formally dating for two weeks she asks me what my idea of the perfect wedding was.

She also said she had a problem with sex before marriage a couple weeks after we met. (My first inkling that she was bullshitting me. Because unless she was asexual, no sex before marriage + not believing in marriage = does not compute.) and shortly after we started going out we were making out in public and I had her sighing my name under her breath.

Now. She isn’t some evil liar. She was just so into me that she told me whatever it was she thought I wanted to hear to make me like her more, but by the same token if you’re into a guy you’re going to slip up and eventually he’s going to find out what you’re really like.

Fifth Horseman, if you’re right about how The Rules will never snag an alpha male, how is it that most alpha males end up getting “snagged” anyway?

By women who are 9s and 10s. Duh…..

No woman who is a 4 can ‘learn some tactics’ to snag her a man who has the option of 9s and 10s.

I focus on all the amazing things my body does that I take for granted and it really does make things like a thinning hairline and the zits totally inconsequential in the face of like, a beating heart, and hands. Dance heals me of that stuff like nothing else.

I still don’t really like my identifiably Jewish nose (especially in profile, where it’s most noticeable), but don’t loathe and despise it nearly as passionately as I once did. I can’t say that I’ll ever be able to rid myself entirely of the influence of internalized Northern European standards of beauty, but at least I no longer believe that my nasal configuration prevents me from being generally perceived as a woman. It may be “Jewish,” but 8 years of experience since my transition tells me that there’s nothing inherently male about it!

Also, like EG, I have never had any negative feelings whatsoever about anyone else’s visibly Jewish noses. Just mine. Recognizing that fact helped me a lot in changing my feelings of self-loathing about it.

If only everyone could reach your glorious heights of self-acceptance and nonchalance in the face of real institutionalized discrimination.

There lies here no attempt to remedy my perplexity. Perhaps, as I suspect, you are not able to tell me why I require a day upon which to celebrate and be proud of my bisexuality.

It is amusing, nevertheless, that you seem here to imply that I face “real institutionalised discrimination” (as opposed to the fictional kind, presumably), whilst simultaneously chiding me for not feeling sufficiently downtrodden. I suggest you think about that for a moment or two.

And also, it’s actually taken a while for me to be proud of my nose given the negative Jewish stereotypes associated with nose size, so I really don’t appreciate your blase above it all attitude OR the example you used to illustrate it.

Description des objectifs Le Mouvement Associatif Centre-Val de Loire, par notre axe de travail sur le champ développement Durable déployé autour du projet "Alimentation durable" s'inscrit sur trois (03) axes principaux.
La Visio conférence organisée par notre partenaire InPACT , permet de mettre en lumière l'axe 3 de notre projet. Cet axe est d'une plus value, car centré sur l'ancrage territorial, et donc vise à favoriser l'intégration des réseaux et des associations dans les Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux (PAT) de notre région.
Les objectifs de cette Visioconférence consiste donc à permettre d'identifier les acteurs associatifs des différents réseaux présents sur les territoires ou se réalisent la dynamique autour des Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux, et de les faire intégrer dans les instances de concertation.
L'objectif est donc de permettre aux associations de trouver leurs places au sein des dynamiques territoriales et de trouver leur place au sein de ces territoires.
Cette visioconférence est aussi une occasion pour des acteurs de vie associative de pouvoir échanger avec les acteurs des collectivités territoriales sur les enjeux de leur PAT.
Afin de cibler les enjeux des PAT, au sein du Mouvement Associatif, deux axes du projet "Alimentation durable" peuvent en ce sens appuyer les réseaux ou structures associatives. Ces deux axes sont cités ci-dessous:
- Axe 1 : Accompagner l'initiative associative en matière d'alimentation durable;
- Axe 2 : Favoriser l'approvisionnement de proximité et de qualité des restaurants associatifs.

(Broken) Laws of Attraction

Most of the relationships I've been in have taught me the same thing: I need a lot of time to myself. The last relationship I was in merely confirmed this fact.

There is a tension between the excitement of meeting someone and feeling that mutual attraction and knowing that I need to protect my time so that I can be happy.

It seems that whenever I've been in a relationship, or even just getting to know someone in a romantic kind of way, all the time that I usually spend on things like keeping the house/car clean and maintained, taking care of myself, reading, catching up with my friends, writing and art projects -- all that time gets eaten up by the new beaux.

And it is great at first, but after a couple months I get angry. I start wondering why I can't get anything done and I start to resent the time spent with said person. I try to draw back and start spending more time doing the things I need to do -- laundry -- for example. But the other person always sees this as a personal affront and the relationship starts to crumble.

What is the solution to this?

Always be single? That is the approach I have been taking for the past few years. But what if I am ready to be open to a functional relationship where I CAN have enough space. What if I've decided that this IS a possibility and that, now, after 2 years of going solo (and sexless) I am warming up to this option.

I've written recently about being an introvert. I think that the main thing I need to find in a potential partner -- from the get go -- is someone who can understand and respect my need for personal time and someone with their own interests and friends and passions. Someone who needs time for his own projects and interests and relationships.

And then, I need to allow things to be slow and easy instead of fast and hard -- which is my usual approach.

The second guy “B” seemed promising but ended up being a total tool. We had two great dates and had pretty much everything in common. We wanted the exact same things out of life, had the same values/view points, and same thoughts. We would literally finish each others sentences and a few times he would say exactly what I was thinking. He was perfect for me. I went to his house and we had all the same movies (except of course some of the chick flicks I have). Heres where it all turns to sh!t. The weekend after our second date he had a business trip so we couldn’t hang out. For two weeks he was calling me non-stop saying he missed me, the following weekend couldn’t come soon enough, I was amazing, I’m the nicest girl, etc. Well the day we were supposed to meet up I text him to see if we were still on for that night. He responded he couldn’t hang out at all cause he had to get his dog! Then before I could respond to that, he sends me a bunch more texts in a row explaining why he couldn’t hang out the next 2 months! All of them were the lamest excuses too. When I texted “It sounds like you don’t want to see me again” his response was “IDK if I do, I don’t like your personality”. Now of course I’m hurt and confused. Afterall he had been saying I was the nicest girl and we had gotten along so well. So I text back “My personality?” His response:” Compatibility might be a better word. We’re not compatible. Besides I’ve realized my attraction to you is purely physical and if thats all there is, then I don’t want to see you again.”
Now I’m even more confused because we had so much in common it was admittedly borderline creepy.

Let me just make it clear that I did not sleep with this guy either, thats the first thing people ask when I tell them this story.

So yeah I’m done with Match and online dating in general for awhile. I’m going to try to find people the old fashioned way for a bit.
