He's just being a jerk and trying to get you to regret the breakup. Your better off without him. Find some new guy when you go out.

Yeah been on both sides, neither is easy.

Wow you said it, my day exactly.

Rubix cube, slot cars, TV shows like ALF, A-Team, Murder She Wrote, Johnny Carson's Late Night, and does anybody remember the show Riptide?

Movies: Red Dawn, Dirty Dacing, Three Men and a Baby, Top Gun, Breakfast Club, 16 Candles.

Geez, can't I go back!

I loved the 80's, are you talking the year 1980 or the decade? If the decade, cable TV, MTV and Reaganomics.

You doin alright there jtitol?

Yeah get some water in you the sun has been brutal today! Whatever you were wearing, I'm sure you were stylin in it!

That's good to hear! We both have the trust thing down cause not only do we trade Jeeps now and then but she trusts me with her house and her doggies!

jtitol, bombing around is what her and I call taking our Jeeps and going off road. She let me drive her Liberty for the first time off road and we had a lot of fun. Confession: I have a soft spot for a girl that drives a Jeep or 4X4 Truck.

Ha! I dated a cashier once, went through the same thing. After about a month of going through her line she finally said, "Aren't you a little busy to keep going through my line?" Gesturing to my one item in her long line when the express line was clearly a more logical and faster option. I responded, "I only invest time in what is important to me." I asked her if she was busy and while she was giving me change we set up our first date. Take it on your speed but don't hold back too long or you'll frustrate her and she'll move on. Go for it dude!

Seena, I'm always looking for new friends so don't let the age difference deter you! That goes for all of you! Thanks for the comment on my Jeep, she is sweety and treats me nice. Anybody else out there in Central IL?

Well I went out with her last night, more like bombing around in the country side. We had some good talks and I think most of you are right. It's early yet and she is liking what she sees but wonders if it's going to last. Last thing I want is a re-bound, the last rebound was my ten year marriage! No I have not told her I love her and want to be with her forever, that would be too soon. We are good friends, I think I'll keep it that way and let time do it's thing. If it's meant to be, then it will happen, until then I plan to make as many friends as I can and see what happens. Thanks for some solid advice everyone!

Jim

Crap! I've let her use my Jeep more than once!

Great advice, thanks. Yeah I have become too close and gained too much of her trust to drop her like a bad habit, doing so would be cruel and make her future relationships hell. I love her, but I want HER to be happy. When I laid out my feelings for her, I told her to think about it, don't commit under obligation or what ever other reasons, commit for what is best for you and us. Maybe she is just being quiet thinking things through.

I'm cruising around Champaign IL, anyone want to go off road?

So I'm going through my divorce and I meet a girl at work who is a lot younger than me but is very adult as she lives on her own, works two jobs so she can live in a house with her two dogs and generally has her sh*t together. We connected at a level where I have never been before and I love being with her. Since my divorce is only filed, I have not had sex with her, I'm kind of old fashioned that way When we are on, it is like a drug! We have had so many good times and from what she has said, I'm what she is looking for but she then pushes me away. She has been hurt in her life so I treat her with a lot of respect and let things move at her pace. We have had a lot of talks but she still acts like she doesn't know what she is looking for. Monday she wants to be with me, Tuesday she ignores me. I don't know what to do, she has told me she is the closest with me than any other guy she has had in her life, yet she pushes me away out of the blue and I have no idea what I did wrong. Should I just move on to more mature women? It will be hard, but I can't take this in my life right now

I typically like rocky roads, but not the kind my ex gave me, hell no!!!!!!!!

Hi all, well after 10 years of marriage I'm doing the whole dating thing again. So far I'm liking the single life but still want a woman to spend some time with. Read my profile, I'm really a simple man and I love to have fun. Looking forward in meeting a lot of you.
