Topic: Do you follow any dating rules? | |
---|---|
For example, do you wait a certain amount of time before calling someone after a date?
If so, what rules do you follow? Do you expect your dates to follow the same rules? |

Yes, I follow my own rules. I like for the man to give me his number first then I will make the first call whenever I choose too. After I make the first call I like for the man to call me more than I call him, if that happens I feel he has more of an interest in me. I usually have a date with men outside my city, so talking online often and then on the phone plays a huge part in if I choose to meet the man inperson. It has worked out well for me so far.

I never know what the rules are. I think they all just passed me by.

Dating means there's a possibility of sex.
I don't date single mothers. I don't spend more than $30. If she answers her cell phone I end the date. I never make date during daylight hours. I don't ever want to meet her friends or family. |

No rules.
I just let them chase me. Til I finally catch them. |

I don’t know any rules. I play it by ear and pray I don’t screw up.

What does the sweater have to do with this thread? Do you have a rule that your dates must wear it?

Back when I dated a lot I made a few rules for myself. For instance, I would not go out with the same man more than twice a week for the first few months I knew him. Before I made that decision, it seemed like every man I dated tried to monopolize my time too quickly. There’s no time to consider how you feel about someone when he’s always around, and when he's the only one you're out haveing fun with.

Having a set of rules for dating is for people who don't like dating.

I don't date married women. I don't like to call more than once a day at first I don't want to be pushy. Those are my rules. The other person can do what they want they might have their own rules.Oh and If you don't like pets it might not work I'm not going to get rid of my dog.

My main rule is, if a woman has so many rules that a good man can't find his way through her "filters", then that's a sad thing for both!
:-) ...and don't think I haven't had to work at lightening up on my rules, it's not as easy as it sounds --- do we want to have everyone fit our rules, our do we want to be happy... It's not always possible to have both... :-) |

Having a set of rules for dating is for people who don't like dating. Can't rules be put in place to help us streamline straight to who we do like to date? For instance if I know I don't like dating married men, then holding myself to a "no dating married men" rule, will allow me more time to date unmarried men. |

I don't date married men or coworkers... I don't date married men either, but I never really considered it a rule. I meant more along the lines of waiting three days to call, making sure he's the one who calls more often, he must pay, there must be five dates before sex and so on. |

You might find an amazing and fun new adventure you'd have never imagined! Kudos! |

Well, if a guy doesn't call me within 3 or 4 days after promising to call me; then I just move on and forget him as he obviously is not interested. I won't chase after him as he is not worth my time.
