A walking in the park is ok still.

Tell me about it.. I met a woman and went to Spain stayed with her for a week, and she was due to come here on Friday for a week..

But on the bright side, at least I got a holiday and all the trimmings before this crisis kicked in. I guess I'll just have to stay with Pamela until the chaos settles..

Cyber sex is the way forward..

Well New Zealand is in stage 4. Lockdown starts Wednesday night. Dating is out here. Anyone for online Scrabble dates?
At least I am locked in the house with two males

We can repopulate the earth if need be...

I never liked dating either. I've always thought of dating as a way to find suitable candidates for marriage. Not that a first date would lead to marriage, but the whole process of getting to know someone and all, to me has always been geared toward "Is she someone I could marry?".

I'm not looking to settle down and start a family, so I tend to look at suitable women a little different now. I'm already settled down for the most part. I just want to find a place suitable to raise my children now and am focused on that.

Now, I'm not looking, but it would take a very special woman to catch my eye. She would have to accept my children as mine. She would have to be able to love them and care for them almost like a mother, but respect that she's not their mother. She would have to be able to understand and respect that I do still have a relationship with my ex, but not in a romantic sense, although there is some level of love there, it's not the same. That alone is a lot for some one to take on, there's other things as well that I look for. There's things I'm no longer lenient or flexible on mainly for the best interest of my children, but some things I should have been stricter about years ago.

It's always been difficult for me to find suitable women to really talk to, now it's even more so, not really because of the kids themselves, but just being a father has changed the way I seek a mate.

I think knowing what you want kinda makes it more difficult to find people, but I guess it makes it easier interacting with them once you do find them.

Do you finally have custody of your children? You seem much more settled and at peace now...

I'm hoping to get custody before mid-april. Was planning on moving in May then going for custody, but things have changed a bit. We'll see how things go.

Best wishes. You will make such a protective, awesome father of them full time Oh and when raising my daughter, I did not bother with looking for a partner. That was my thing, not everyone else can do that.



.

I was always there for them when I had them, never let them go.

Of course you were. I adore that in you. Take care xxx

Yes if you have your own park ,thousands had the same idea ,now they are shutting some parks

It's certainly not the best time to be starting a relationship, that's for sure . It might provide a golden opportunity for mingle to clean house though.

Indeed it isn't. Higher risk of an influx of bored people who go on a dating-site just to have something to do. So chances of getting in touch with someone who's not serious might become higher now.

Yeah, I really do think...

Yeah, I really hope so.

Actually, I had a first meet yesterday at a state park. Few people around. I liked that there was an opportunity to talk and get acquainted without any pressure or expectation for physical touching. There will be time for that later if we get that far.

Nice Alanis Morissette reference!


I’m taking things in stride. Getting a few things in my life taken care of while I wait. Gosh darn it, I was ready to date! Go figure. *laughing*

On that note, I’ve made tentative dates for October. (Good thing he has a sense of humor.) The weather will be spot on and I’m looking forward to getting out of town.

hii

Nice, and well spotted (the lyric quote)!

Don't know how I missed this quip
Dating on the back burner ?

Here in India nobody wants to date
