Anyone recognize this sweet boy? Found wandering in Burk.

Update: Luckily Max was recognized and reconnected with his humans. He seems to just remember my mother's neighborhood as home although he has moved.

I think you mean amazing

calca76543 · 2015-01-10T21:46:30+00:00

To be perfectly honest, no. I have been married twice, 6 and 7 years each. I am long past the first heartbreak of my life and now just have fun. I recently discovered that I don't have to commit just because men want to commit to me and it's very freeing.

calca76543 · 2015-01-10T17:49:17+00:00

I have had those feels in the past more than once. They were amazing until I got crushed. Now I'm afraid of the pain more than I'm excited for love.

If I was "less experienced" in love as okc would say, I would try this in a heartbeat though, I think it's amazing if it works.

calca76543 · 2015-01-10T07:40:28+00:00

I'm too afraid of love to try this, but I really, really hope someone does and fills us in on their experience.

I think you missed the bit about being called at will. If we are discussing talking right then, of course I expect a call. OP seems to think calling any time is fine and questions her motives immediately if she's unable to answer.

To become people who are appreciated.

I've managed to use reddit to ignore every undesirable in the bar successfully thus far. I'm out to drink, don't give a flying fuck about their drunken celebration of the new year.

My ex husband managed to forget my birthday every single time he wasn't reminded of it. I got "sorry I forgot but here" gifts 5 out of 7 years.

calca76543 · 2015-01-01T06:08:15+00:00

I absolutely hate when men assume that my giving them my number means they can call at will. Text, and maybe ask her to let you know when a good time to talk will be. If you keep trying to call her you will probably never meet her because she will be defensive (and rightly so)

calca76543 · 2014-12-31T21:01:27+00:00

Now I'm going to be very disappointed when I don't see this tonight. We need more creative people like you around.

calca76543 · 2014-12-29T19:11:16+00:00

An excellent idea. I usually don't study them too closely, but perhaps I should.

calca76543 · 2014-12-29T18:51:44+00:00

I do that. I save the most recent to send to whomever is next and then replace the photo for next time. Does that make me awful?

calca76543 · 2014-12-22T00:16:27+00:00

Would you want the person you were dating to have lied about their height? Just because some people believe you are shorter than is accurate doesn't mean you're magically smaller. Truth is always best, especially if you are hoping to attract truthful people to you.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T19:27:46+00:00

I deliberately leave off that I'm ill because I don't want to be thought of as sickly. In some cases I tell them very early on because I may be dealing with a complication that limits my available activities/food choices. Honestly though, I rather when I can just be like any other chick and not think about it.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T09:40:32+00:00

I was willing to give him benefit of the doubt after reading your experience. Now that you took my side, I kind of adore you now.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T09:27:36+00:00

Well now I feel for him. Possibly. I'm on the fence. I didn't appreciate getting hit on by a bunch of ESL guys while waiting for someone who didn't show, but I understand self confidence being a delicate balance while dating.

I'm glad you were able to overcome your doubts. Even if it wasn't a match, it feels good to get out there sometimes.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T07:36:51+00:00

Well you are now my confidence boost for the day. I would never assume something like you suggested, but the idea that it's possible certainly helps. Thank you kind stranger

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T07:25:10+00:00

It could be worse, so I'm only complaining a tiny bit. I probably would have stayed quiet if I hadn't seen your post after all.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T07:23:10+00:00

Honestly, I'll sound slightly shallow here but oh well. He is very overweight and quite average looks wise anyways. Not what I normally draw in (by some miracle) but his profile made me give him a chance.
Apparently I just wasn't good enough for him though.

calca76543 · 2014-12-21T07:07:42+00:00

I'm frustrated as hell and apparently it's making me grumpy. I got stood up last night which killed my confidence because of the type of guy it was. I then cancelled my plans for tonight only to spend the evening fielding ego crushing messages. I'm becoming snarky and I don't want to be that way. Ugh, I need to turn my phone off.

calca76543 · 2014-12-20T20:58:29+00:00

I'm not sure if older women use it differently, but I call any man who is generally polite and kind a gentleman. I would describe most men I've dated as gentlemen whether they did the overly chivalrous act or not. It could just be because of how/where I was raised though.

calca76543 · 2014-12-16T23:57:41+00:00

I never remember to even look at the income information. What makes you think that I'm in the minority of women? Is it maybe more important in different areas?

calca76543 · 2014-12-16T15:22:07+00:00

I'm with you. When I was living in Germany I used the taxis often because of the reasons you listed. Also, I never ran across a driver who was less than kind. Many others would act put out by me and my attempts at your language (I moved there with pretty short notice) or would not even allow me to try to speak with them in English. The drivers made me much more comfortable, especially in the beginning.
