Hey Babs there IS hope!!

My youngest daughter doesn't usually make good choices in her selection of men. She likes the "bad boy" type and wonders why they treat her like dirt, although I do have to admit I have seen her throw dirt as well.

I think she may have found a keeper with the one she is with now. We keep waiting for the other "shoe" to drop and find out he IS a serial killer with the charming personality. They have been together for a few months and she is now living with him and so far she hasn't scared him away. A good sign.

We have always said they switched babies on us at the hospital. You didn't have a daughter in 84 that might possibly be the one I raised? LOL!!

Please Please be careful!!

I think this is now a dead thread.

No email or call from either guy in several days. I think they've found other entertainment.

Me, I'm crawling back out of the dating pool for awhile. The water is COLD!

Cheers,
B.

Thanks Jim.

Well, it's Official. He just sent me an email with a long-winded explanation of why he can't do dinner tonight.

I'm officially dogged.

And while I COULD call Guy #2, he IS 54, a considerable age gap, and he lives 40 miles north of me, and why bother, since he's probably hooked up with someone else anyway?

Sigh.... Maybe I'll just pray the next hormonal surge doesn't involve me and Craigslist.

Thanks for your support. You guys are the best!!!!

Babs have you looked closer to home?

Sometimes the best ones are just lurking around and are right under your nose!!

Just don't get too desperate and go looking during a family reunion -- It would be awful to have a two headed kid running around!!

Honey, if I could meet a man who lived in my zip code, I would.

So far, most of them are MARRIED and looking for a PLAYTHING.

No wonder I date "bad boys." At least they show up for dates, and I'm not surprised when they act like a-holes.

Hey, a couple of cigarrettes, a happy meal from Mickey-D's and a Lyle Lovett CD are easing my pain.

Cheers,
Babs

Yeah you would have to buy two masks and two machines when they inherit your airway.

Or maybe they would get lucky and one of them would have an open airway. During sleep he could breathe for the whole body while the other one choked down.

Hey, at least you know I can't shoot myself - rifle is still in Alabama, and Dad says suicide by shotgun is much more efficient, anyway.

No dissing Lyle Lovett in my hearing.

LOL,

Isn't it a shame there isn't a man for you that is lurking on the forum???

Have you tried any "old" "rich" men? My son dated older women for a while (he was in his early 20's) and they were in their 50's and 60's. Said it was the best sex he ever had and no worries about making babies. They supposedly taught him lots of tricks -- didn't ask questions. On the other hand maybe you want a younger man that has sex on his mind!!

Babette, I am sorry the one guy flaked, but don't discount the older guy. They have often greater respect for women, will remember to hold the door open for you, etc., and good sex doesn't necessarily go out the window at that age. I'm just sayin'...unless you're feeling totally wounded right now, it might not hurt to at least meet the 54-year-old. You just never know where your Mr. Right might be hiding.

Hehe ... the wife was watching a new 70's based show series the other night, last week, called Swingtown. The episode was about this couple having a swinger's party to raise legal fees for some porn star named "Harry Reams". I thought it was funny ... the name that is

Anyway, the wife and I met on Yahoo Personals ... seems to have worked out ok.



Oh, DreamStalker, you haven't seen enough porn films, have you? Click for Harry Reems Bio

I only know his name because of the mainstream porn movie, "Deep Throat," that was shown in "regular" theaters back in my college days. It was the topic of quite a few newspaper columns and movie reviews.


Well according to that link, I was only 12 years old when that movie came out so I have a good excuse
OK dreamstalker...now you both had me pegged good.......because
I didnt even understand WHO he was referencing, as I was only 3 yrs
old when those films were made! No doubt, showing my age! LOL
Thanks for the laugh though all.

Babs...as my Irish father would say "pull yourself up by your bootstraps and move on". Certainly easier said than done, but know there is a reason, could be divine intervention, why you are not meant to meet him. Hang tough girlfriend, tomorrow is a new day!
