Second Bite at the Tinder is not Biting me Back

Am I really over 40 or is it all a dream.  I feel like I am back in high school with all the boys trying to slip their hand under my shirt just to cop a brief feel.  Of course in those virginal days I was quick to scoff at the idea and gently take their hand and place it back on their lap.  Which probably was not a good idea but you get the picture.  Fast Forward to the present with my plethora of dates and it is the same damn thing allover again.  I really got zinged with Chance and no guy is going to cop a feel or anything else until I am in a relationship, period.  So I put the theory to work that CJ was just looking for a romp in the hay.  After Friday night I knew CJ would not be his old charming pushy self. Why?  Because I would not sleep with him or let him touch my  unmentionables.

Speed Dating Psychopath

 

So last night was supposed to be my first date with Stan the Speed Dater [remember names are changed to protect the not so innocent.].  The plan agreed upon was to pick me up outside my high rise.  I told him specifically that I would meet him outside of my building and for him to call me as soon as he was getting close.  I never give out my apt number and I never let any of my dates pick me up at my apartment.  Our date was set for 7:30pm.  at 7:10pm I HEAR A LOUD KNOCK AT THE DOOR.  "who would be knocking at my door at this time of night,." I thought to myself.

Stop Dating those Loons!

Let me interrupt this blog for a special message.  I have a date tonight and I do not want to go.  Do you get to the point that you are so over it, you just want to hide under an elusive rock and stay there until the nightmare is over?  I admit, I put myself in the situations of dating these ultimate losers.  People ask me all the time when I tell them my stories, ""how do you attract these men?" "Why do all the crazies find you?"  I ponder that question a lot and conclude it with, "at least I see the flags and get out before the relationship takes a serious turn." Just a bit of trying to pat myself on the back for being so brave in recognizing and discarding those dreaded loons.

Welcome to the Eternal Single Woman

Some people say being married comes with many trials and tribulations.  Couples have to work hard at their marriage, constantly.  Financial issues, children, sex and the usual of just growing out of the marriage.  But what about us millions of eternally single women?  There are many of us all across the world.  Are we single by choice or is it just the luck of the draw, that we never met our soul mate? And is there really such thing as a soul mate
