Yes thats part of it, strength, if I want someone with the same exact strengths, id be with a woman. If hes too wussy to handle it, good luck dude.


Where, exactly, did this deviate into a " strength versus weakness " thing??

Because a dude isn't actively seeking someone on any given night makes him weak???


If hes intrested, but doesnt ask for a date. Yes.

At my age, EVERYONE has baggage. The ide is to use it to one's benefit, not detrement.


nope, i dont enter with baggage.. i work on myself and am very careful with how i enter.


We just all need to try to set the baggage down at the door...
We own it, but check it curbside if at all possible!


Baggage can be good. Like, I learned never to date a man who does drugs. From experience. Now I know what to look for -- the signs to tell -- and that's because of my baggage.



baggage would be accusing every new man you meet of using drugs.



No i dont think baggage exists unless you let it, when someone has learned, or is over it, it is no longer baggage, it is experience.

Maybe, but some baggage is so very deep seeded that it takes a LOT more work to get over it.

Case in point: When a woman never had a good father figure growing up (and, in fact, had a terrible one), she has a very difficult time understanding how to find a good man. After all, if she only knows bad, she's only going to see bad. And that comes from childhood, which is VERY deep-seeded baggage.

YES EXACTLY and THATS why you should STAY SINGLE instead of selfishly dropping your heap on someone else. You WAIT, and HEAL, and WORK ON YOURSELF.

AND THEN you be honest with people who are interested in you.

I don't remember if I ever started a thread like this or not, but I DO know I have mentioned it before.

I have NEVER been asked on a date since WELL before my marriage. I've been divorced almost three years now. Three years of guys hitting on me, but never a date request.

Why is this? Do men not ask ladies on dates anymore? Why not? What the hell happened?

Some guys arn't 'hitting' there building up to ask... My experience.

See a well set up lady... but you don't know her.

Try to strike up a conversaton (but gotta be WAY careful case she's one o the ones that think i'm HITTING on her).

If she don't brush you off with that 'Who the f are YOU - pervert' look.

The minute you talk close to the word 'date'. She finds a quick reason to need distance.bigsmile

"Date" wouldn't make me distance. And a conversation, as in "Hey, that's a cool book you're reading." or "Watcha reading?" would be wonderful. But no. I get "Hey baby, wanna go somewhere private?"

That's not a date. That's BS.
