That is true, rushing things is never a good idea.

I didn't sneak in, lol, been here all along.

how can a guy be more than just friends with women?


I'm not saying it can't happen for some there are Men and Women out there that are friends...

but I so agree with Billy Crystal in the movie "When Harry met Sally"

if a man is attracted to a Woman on some kind of lever or another he's gonna want to have sex with Her.

it takes a lot of respect to make it happen.

awww 50 yeah its great just had my folks 40 bout 2yrs ago just be freinds an u never know what happens after that i always relay on me an my recent ex how long we were together it was all cause of the friendship we developed over the years:) true friends are true friends friends are friends that maybe come around once a year lol

50 wow congrats that is great.
i will not rush things good advise thanks

My mother and stepfather have been married for 36 years (sometimes I wonder why they are still married). I want that, (want a better relationship than they have, but I want the long lasting relationship with someone).

so lonely how is kentucky these days i have family out that way:) funny thing is most of my friends growing up were actually all guys, i guess that why people always thought of me as a tomboy even though i don't think i really im lol

silk i just want a realtionship again too but its tough my friend to find that new person again trust me i haven't been signle that long but i been looking for awhile now its hard

I want that too, but thats why I think I'm so picky with who I decide to meet or go on a second or third date with. dont want to spend another 5 yrs with the wrong guy and I have 2 kids to think about too. dont want them meeting to many people either!

yes nay i like that now very picky well last guy i was with was little older family hated him lol so i think this year i want someone little closer to my age an area but its hard with a big city like boston around lol

kentucky i great would never leave it where is your family at

picky???

well shut my moutho---

i got family in louisville richmond shelby mom was born an raised there

I have a 6 yr old, I understand the not wanting her too meet too many people either. The last one (we went out for 4 1/2 months), she got attached to him. He broke her heart. I won't be letting that happen again. Until I know someone is going to go the long term, she ain't meeting them too early.

ok i live near newport 5minutes from cincinnati

yep i know were both places are been there a few times on my way to kentucky. actually i just got back from a trip to VA a few weeks ago

it's hard to date some one and get to know them well enough before they meet the kids. I dont want to leave my kids to go out all the time. I have them full time and I work all day so I want my time with them at the end of the day! so hopefully I will meet someone in a similar situation who has the same family values as me. if not thats ok too, I'm happy in my life just would be nice to sare it with some one :)

well after reading all the replys i realize that you have to start as friends and can't start as lovers so to speak.
thanks will keep them in mindthey really helped

i think its harder for me were i had to move back home with the folks an my older sister lives here with her 3 kids an having no car makes it hard for but i got my computer for my communication an my group of online friends i talk with but i do wish some day i find that right person again soon :) just like my friend did he found his after 35yrs an they were highschool sweethearts i told him if that was his choice then i m happy for you. an yes im

I think you also need to read the signals. Sometimes a woman wants it to be more than friends but thinks it'a all HE wants so plays it cool so as to not scare him away. Start as friends though it will last longer. After awhile if she seems really comfortable around you "accidently" touch her hand or something like that to see how she responds. Above all else though take things slowly. Most of us females are so sick of all the Octopi that we've met over the years that rushing anything is a major turn off both as a date and a friend. Good luck!

canubetheone i would be glad to add you as a friend and if you ever want to chat let me know i would be glad to
