Honestly. I hate that when I go on a date with a guy, he's looking for the girl he's going to 'hook up with' and I'm looking for the guy that I get to laugh and chill with.

Keep your hand off my leg and don't try to sleep with me on the first date... or within the first few dates. Lets make sure that we're actually compatible as friends first, yes?

It's the reason I hate dating. I want to meet people. People. Friends.

this is why i am kind of glad i met someone online, Because it gave us months to just talk and see each other sense of humor. I didnt have to worry about whether he really liked me or whether he was just trying to score....

Guys are PIGS plain n simple. Once in a while you will find a nice one, once in awhile.

Easier said than done, I'm afraid. I have a rule against dating guys at work... and I am friends (strictly platonic) with most in my neighborhood (I currently have an interesting 'relationship' with one, so every single one of his friends... and that's a lot of people... are off limits).

I don't know where else to meet people besides dating sites... and then...

...refer to post no. 1.

Find activities you enjoy doing outside of work. Look for groups that do these activities and you're likely to meet people with similar interests.

haha... he's wonderful. I adore him. BUT-- he assures me that there is nothing there. He's leaving (at some point) so won't commit. He has a son on the east coast, so he'll be leaving me one day, and is decidedly NOT my boyfriend. But he happens to be one of the most well-known guys in my neighborhood. His friends are off limits, of course... so I need to look elsewhere.

Again with the pigs comment!! :-) Men are not pigs. My pigs are well-behaved and sweet. Rocky will happily curl up next to you, not try and jump you, and he understands no. I might give you men are like goats, though. I hate October with goats.

I have friends... I guess you make a valid point though. I have friends, I want to date, but I just want things to move a bit slower. Uh... no... scratch that... A LOT slower. I like a guy to be my friend first... then more.

Dating inherently presumes that the meeting leads immediately to romance... and I'm just not ok with that.

Ok, i take it back, men are slugs, they are slow with their responses commitments and often leave a slimy trail behind them...

Well i say, if he is not committed, then his friends are not off limits. LOL
