MEN!!!!!
I was asked to update everyone on my love life.
Well it seems I went through 4 men, had trouble keeping them straight and now down to one and possibly none.
I do have 2 more possibilities that people want to introduce me to and so I am going to wait and see.
One of my problems is I want not necessiarily a commitment, but to know that someone is interested right now. I have trouble waiting. I am not as patient as I should be.
I also think one saw my Weight Loss folder with my pictures and cancelled the date. Oh well, that is his loss. ( Was not sure about him in the beginning anyways but was willing to meet him.) I do not hide who I am or was from anyone. If they cannot take me as I presently look and the way I was in the past..wrinkles and all, then they do not want me.


Healthy attitude to have about men, Martha! I would be the same way - take it or leave it. I was very fat and am not near as much so.
I remember those days of being impatient....I was the same way before I met my husband. And I met him when I wasn't really looking for once. Weird huh? I don't know what to say except keep true to yourself and eventually someone will love you for who you are!

I have to say I was the same way... I just got out of a long term relationship... once I got past the breakup, I wanted to meet someone so bad. For a year I was hopping from date to date. I finally gave up and 2 months later I met my husband. 4 months after that we got engaged.
When it seems you arent looking, they just stumble on to ya!

Martha,
There are statistics that say that on the average, you will have 13 first dates before you find someone that you want to date a second time. I don't know how true that is, but I know I'm a heck of a lot pickier than I used to be so I've probably raised that average to 25.
I'm having fun just dating and lately have found myself kinda hoping that I don't find "the one" right away. I'd have to give up some of the other things that I like to do to make room for a steady man and I'm not sure I want to do that right now. Of course next week, I'll probably be complaining about another bad date.
Martha, I know this is easier said than done, but just go with the flow and enjoy yourself. My new motto is "Don't settle."
Hugs,
Connie
