I particularly liked the mad laughter at the end...... nothing creepy about that... Edited 30-Mar-24 03:09am

Thanks you guys for all the great comments

That would depend on how much they weigh really..I can understand that it might be embarrassing.... some women may even wonder if picking them up at all during a date is entirely reasonable... Edited 30-Mar-24 02:31am

yeah you are probably right

trust is a quality that is disappearing with common sense, i am lucky enough to have been married 38 years now, but from the outside looking in people expect the worst in people now all I can say is be patient i think people window shop for partners instead of befriending them first

To everybody if you celebrate Easter Happy Easter and don't forget the Easter bunny and Easter eggs. Hey what is Easter without the Easter bunny, they go hippity hop and didididididi. They are so cute in the store I have to be careful not to buy out the aisle in the store I would go broke. Kind of cute huh?

Linda C yeah I know it can be scary out there but hopefully not.

Hey Holly cat do have kitty cats?

Thank you Holly cat, I usually meet in a public place first with the lady and see how it goes and if something happens I have my cell phone ready and with me to call 911, but I haven't had to do that.

Holly cat you are right I have been doing that. So I most probably will do that. Hey you never know the woman could be crazy and mean just like men. Kudos to you Holly cat

Good Luck everyone

I know there are nice ladies out there I just have to meet them than you all for the nice comments. Let's try to show some kindness to others in this crazy world I think we all really need it.

A good thing happened to me yesterday at my library there was a young lady with her Dad and they were coming in when I wa I love holding the door for others it is a nice thing to do for another. as going out and I held the door for them and said ok you guys I will hold the door for you and the young lady said you come I like holding the door for people and I said you have very nice manners and I said thank you.

Thank you for all the nice comments and Linda C you are right doing a gig and having a death in the family doesn't apply to the nice ladies. I was just trying to make a point.

LindaC I hear you thank you. I think watching the bachelor caused this.

Women are being careful these days. 100's are being drugged in clubs and hotels, so many are being killed every year, raped, robbed you name it. It is a precaution such as not going out to dinner but to a lunch or coffee to get some sense of the person. Works both ways also. By the way, not all men are gentlemen. Having 2 deaths and doing a gig is sad but nothing to do with dating. Women are being cautious and of course there are terrific guys out there but sometimes it is scary.

Well Gunter L if you don't I am not going to tell you eat my shorts andbeat my coolo

To Lee B, We had Dobermans when I was younger and they are great dogs but that doesn't take away the niceness and nurturing and caring of nice ladies who are truly trying to find someone nice. I have had ladies in the library open the door for me and I then opened the door for them and I said thank you and I also said you have great manners. I have a couple of ladie friends who I talk to all the time, it is not all bleak.

to Holly cat, I had that to and it was terrible. I almost didn't recognize her from a wedding two years ago. I am glad she paid her way and I paid my way as I would of been pissed. You never know what the person is like until you get to know them, and also you don't need to reveal everything to them either.

To Gunter L, I don't do that I disagree with you but thank you for all the nice posts.

Probably the ones I am meeting have terrible baggage and way back hidden pain from a divorce or being cheated on. Then they get scared and freaked out when someone asks them out they don't know what to do with themselves because they are stuck in their ways. don't you watch the bachelor? They are putting themselves out there and being vulnerable and to that dude who says I repeat myself eat my shorts and beat my coolo.

Eat my shorts all of you and for the one who says that I am putting forth something bad blow out your coolo whey

Some women are pretty enough to arouse a man and are liable to be taken right away in no time.

If you want some company get a saint bernard. They are loyal trustworthy and drag you out of a snow avalanche.. you can't say a woman will do that for you

If the date doesn't go well, they can make a quick escape if they met you there in their own car :)

Lawrence haven't you heard of the golden book of rules? It's all about keeping the allure . If she's very interested she won't let you see where she lives on the first date .. nor let you in . Most are not fearing a first kiss it's more a clumsy push and shove over ,, slime attack . Yes it's not what it used to be the quaint gentlemanly dating game,,, although l am sure many still exist , Rock and hard place now isn't it for us damsels in' distress ' ? ;) Talk more ,earn trust ,find a lady who will meet you in the middle somewhere or indeed will let you pick her up .. there are still many with open hearts. Good luck and be patient :)

What a sad scenario from Lawrence. Are you giving vibes that YOU can't be trusted? Every first date, especially when the first flower of youth has long gone is filled with apprehension. On my first date with my now 36 years partner, the poor lad was quivering with anxiety but at least we made it out the gate, had dinner and came home safely. I even let him kiss me goodnight!
