1) Arrange a trip to Las Vegas.
2) Wear business attire (tie optional).
3) Go to the Island Lounge at Mandalay Bay shortly after midnight on a Friday or Saturday night.
Your problem will be solved in short order. Though the payment arrangements might be a bit problematic. ;)
Well, Paula, I think its important that I be truthful here. To answer your question, what I really want is meet Rose of Sharn in a secluded cabin, sit in front a nice fire and watch Benny Hill reruns all day. And, to get frisky, I would tap the top of her head like Benny did to that old man all the time.
During this time, her husband would be polishing the King Ranch F150 that I would drive off in.
That, Paula, is my greatest fantasy.
Cool weather, yes, but no rain. Where we live, we're going on our 4th month without significant rain.
If I remember right, this is your first post on this thread. Obviously you have given the issue some thought and were just waiting to use that A-bomb.
You are right, of course, and it's almost an unavoidable trap.
Just convince me that it's not also a female failing. Show me the female who also does not gravitate to the "hunks". The arguable difference is that guys tend to learn the value of "other things" more quickly after failure.
The advantage of being fortunate enough to have a genuine second chance benefits both if there are no children involved. Unfortunately, for both sexes, in the overwhelming number of cases, when children are involved, there is no second chance for either to have the traditional family life. Or to date accordingly.
We went to Vegas in 2004. I'm sure it could have been easy to find someone that would approach both of us but we played it safe.
We didn't take advantage of everything Vegas had (or it didn't take advantage of us). We went mostly for the shows. Branson MO is more to our style.
Absolutely not!
...as if ...
Apologies.
Norm!
You mentioned Norm.
I love Norm. OK, even more than Ty Pennington and Andrew Dan-Jumbo. OK, not quite as much as Sparky Bartolomeo (nekkid).
In my next life, I'm marrying Norm Abrams. If Sparky doesn't want me first. Or maybe I could have both!
You take Andrew Dan Jumbo and I'll take Lesile!
I agree with everything Mamzelle said her in post.
I also pointed to that same "phenom" earlier - my date within your species comment... or at least take a realistic assessment of your looks before you think Pam Anderson wants to go out with your pudgy, balding self.
I think women are more likely to look beyond a bald spot and a beer belly - while men still think they 'deserve' the barbie doll.
Pity.
Your "tame me" comment rang true to me.
I have had a lost list of men who think my independence is cool - right up until we start to have a relationship. The next thing you know, they're buying me cookbooks and trying to change me.
Don't try to change me and I promise not to try to change you. Plus, you fell for me because of all these things - and now you want to warp me - and then you tell me that I've changed?
Run... Run FAST!!!
I also think women are more practical in choosing a mate than men, because children are often in her plan. That's where the golddigging comes in.
Maybe a man can't help falling for what his eyes see--"He loves first with his eyes"--but he'd better learn not to love *only* with his eyes. I do get tired of this folly being justified by "nature"--nature is what we're put on earth to rise above.
I believe this is the reason behind all the cheesecake pix on FR. They actually think they might have a chance with (insert name here) if they could just meet her.
LOL!!!
I'm just looking for a sweet guy-next-door who want try to tame me. (plus a few other important attributes like - must like pets, travel, small airplanes, etc. etc.)
;-)
ROFL you are cracking me up! BTW we think we have found our mountain cabin! : )
Could you imagine....
You aren't the first, or in the first thousand...
LOL!!!
Men do tend to let their eyes do too much 'thinking' for them.
You'll hear remarks about "she seemed so sweet!" about a girl they just saw. THEN they get upset later when they do talk to her and she's the complete opposite.
Then you hear "She led to me!".
erm, OK.
