QUOTE: Well......you should already know that.....and I'd rather not tell you.....considering the weird *** relationship we have formed Cuz I read Hemmingway at the bar? laugh That up there^^^ No idea what it has to do with anything Snark -- But you reading Hemmingway -- that is sexy As to this --"ETA: Billy, why would taking a woman home be easier than asking her on a date? In my expereince, it's the same thing, only asking her on a date is WAY more respectful..." WHAT!?!? If you make yourself not "approachable" for a date and a guy decides to take you "home" that means he wants to have sex ya get it now? respect doesnt have anything to do with it. but where did we veer off? at you making yourself not approachable. and you proved that. by saying, "it's the same thing" that one is WAY more respectful. and guess what? we know that so, miss snarky twain who reads hemmingway, youre smart you think about what i am saying But if I'm approachable for sex, I should also be approachable for a date...? WTF? Men confuse the HELL out of me!   Most of the guys that would approach you for sex wouldn't do so for a date because they have the mistaken impression that anything other than sex obligates them to something more than just getting laid. |

Oh and another thing that all of you ladies should remember...
Guys feel the same way about rejection as you do. It is hard for the to be rejected as well.. You are stuck with a double whammy... One the double standard of the guy being the one who is supossed to be the one to ask, personally I have always hated that and think it is BS... Ladies it is a new century it is OK for you to ask... The second is your beauty, guys tend to see your beauty and think that you must already be with someone. So they won't bother to ask. Especially the "nice guys" that you are looking for. After all they tend to be shy, or they do not want to offend. Not to meantion the fact that they feel insecure and afraid of rejection. It is OK to ask, in fact in a lot of cases you MUST be the one to ask. DO NOT sit around waiting, its a waste of time and you will miss out on a lot... You could very well miss out on someone who is perfect for you. Just because you were both afraid to ask... such a shame... |

There still is decent guys out there. I can proudly and honestly say that I've never cheated on an ex girl before. I still believe in courtship, foreplay and romance. I'm not perfect but at least I know how to treat a lady, I live in Los Angeles. |

The interesting thing is that I've heard men talk about the double standard and wanting women to ask them out or pay for dates or travel to see them, etc... But given that exact situation, they are often uncomfortable with the reality of a woman willing to do that. The means the double edged sword cuts both ways. Rejection stinks no matter which way it's flying... |

I've thought that myself... that a guy must be with someone or too young or out of my league... Sometimes I wonder if getting a divorce was such a good idea... |

But given that exact situation, they are often uncomfortable with the reality of a woman willing to do that. The means the double edged sword cuts both ways. I can't address that, because I've been asked out a lot -- this was primarily back in the days when I was actively involved in music -- but I was never uncomfortable with that particular arrangement. I would have been TOTALLY uncomfortable with any OTHER arrangement, actually! I suppose there probably are guys who are still attached to the old-world mindset about these things -- if I try to imagine my father in that position, I can picture him being shocked and appalled by the very idea! -- but I have no problem with it. Rejection stinks no matter which way it's flying... True enough, but isn't it inevitable if people are asking other people out? Sooner or later, there's a pairing that simply doesn't click right off the bat.... |

You're just so deep!  I used to live in Spokane, I wentto Shadle Park High. Better than Ferris! I'm an LC grad, in case that comment didn't cement that fact.

LOL no I hate rejection as much as anyone. I meant the part about the women who know what they want and are willing to make the first move.
