Hmmmm
A few posts ago I stated I was going to start dating. Here is how it is going. I haven't gone on one date yet. There is a very good reason for this. Since I've said this, I have on average met and exchanged numbers with 2 guys a week depending on how many times I go out. Here is what happens. They call, they ask me out, I say yes, we make plans and I break them the last minute. I think, I met them in a bar, how nice or good can they be? Isn't this rotten? I do know a lot of people have met and hooked up in a bar. I tell them upfront, look, if sex is what you want..keep going because that is not going to happen with me. Yet, they still buy me drinks and call me and I keep no showing. I know that my luck is going to end and men are going to stop asking, and then I'll be complaining about how miserable I am. So...how can I fix this? Any ideas?

How about going out with the guys? You don't know what they are going to be like until you actually date them, and if you don't plan on dating them stop giving out your number!

I think you are afraid to go out because as all of us know, sometimes, those spur-of-the-moment too-many-drinks gosh-what-was-I-thinking dates turn out to be really crappy. So I think your problem is where you are meeting your prospective dates. A sober decision might bring you better results. There are places to meet singles, although it isn't easy, it will get you farther down the road then chickening out on what your instincts are telling you would be pointless dates.

Easy! You don't want to go out with guys you've met in bars, right? Stop hanging out in bars. Find other activities where you can meet guys. But then, start going out with them. Of course, if you really do prefer to hide in your shell, that is your choice and it's your life. But if you do it don't come complaining later. ;)

Let's be honest. You know exactly why you are not going out with these guys and it has nothing to do with the above. It's a misplaced loyalty. You'll continue to struggle with this conundrum until you break that tie. And good luck.

I think you all have a little bit of truth..however, I think that Bunnyjo has most of it.
Here is the thing, when I go out and meet them and give them my number I do have every intention of going out with them. If I don't, I mix the numbers up :)
It's easy, all I want is someone who is musical, can make me laugh and has a brain..but not the kind of brain that reminds your body to do the daily stuff, but someone who reads and would like to play Balderdash.
College. I'll meet someone worthy in college :) What is the age of consent again?

Before you put all your emotional stock in finding Mr. "WAY RIGHT" in college, keep in mind that lots of folks are there to keep benifits rolling in. I think I would go to different places, I've yet to meet someone in a bar that seemed "long term".....or "Ever in a million years"

I think Yoobee has some good advice, if only he wasn't so into vampires, you know...

Vampires would not get DUI's, or dirty cracks, they have perfect hair 24/7 and are very cultured.
If you get pulled over, he would just do that hypnosis thing with his eyes and make the cop give someone you don't like a ticket instead, he could take Jame's to a fine restaraunt of any culture, country or ethnicity and speak in the native tongue like a pro.
She could benifit in many areas but go ahead, be a narrow minded Vampiphobe....keep your precious damn blood and ignore all the possibilities a domestic Vampire could bring into her life.
