I think this good idea for people that feel uncomfortable because of either lack of experience or maybe just want to know why they are failing at getting 2nd dates.I think it would be good thing if it there wasnt any expection of relationship out of the date and maybe at end some sort of conversation on what you think the other might be doing wrong without hurting others feelings.what do yall think of this idea? It wouldnt be based on looks or age

I like jumping in and hoping I can swim, but for some this is a good choice to make. Practice what you want, enough practice and you become a mastersmokin

I think the problem lies more with people expecting too much from a date. You can even see this in some JSH members' profiles- they'll put down "looking for marriage" or something similar as their overall goal while on the site.

While it is admirable to have your goals set from the start, the problem here is that dating is one of those things you simply can't predict in terms of result. You may end up with the person of your dreams, a "friend with benefits", or the both of you might just hate each others' guts. You simply can't expect something, as you'll only set yourself up for disappointment.

But yeah- practice dates would work in certain cases, though.

i'm myself hope to marry but no expection of a date simply put my hope of marraige out there to let people know i'm seious and to warn any man in case he is against marrying.a date is just getting to know a person and maybe having a bit of fun or just making a new friend:wink:

I hate first dates. What is especially hard is that the more I'm interested and attracted to a person, the more awkward and uncomfortable I feel. The less attracted and the more I feel like this is a just friends person, the more relaxed I am and less self conscious. So I think I end up sending confused signals to people.

Well I am planning to meet someone that I met on JSH soon. On the one hand, she wants to meet first before she decides anything, so I am not to go there expecting anything. On the other hand, if I don't go and meet her, I won't ever have a chance with her, and I can't live with that. She definitely wants to see me when I come to town. She's been hurt, and her life is kinda complicated right now (as mine is) but I care a lot for her. So I think that practice dates can provide a possibility that otherwise wouldn't be there.
