Wow. This one may be beyond my limited capabilities, man. The only thing I can say is that you have to assure her that you aren't filing only because she " pressured " you into it. Once you get things filed, try calling her. Let her know all of your reasons for not having done so before. Let her know, in clear, plain, simple language how you feel about her. She will either accept it, or she won't. Sorry dude. That's the best I have for you. Yea, thanks for even attempting it. I figure I'll do just that; file & see if we can pick up where we left off. It'll be up to her at that point. We had all kinds of plans together; camping & hiking trips, guitar lessons. He11, I just bought her a $450 dollar acoustic that's sitting next to me right now. I'd like to think that this is just her way of trying to push me in the right direction but I guess I'll find out soon enough. |

Keep in mind that picking up " where you left off " probably isn't going to be possible. Things might be slightly different for a while. She is in a concerned frame of mind. It'll probably take her a awhile to get out of it. |

JAG...what's a man's perspective on this: One person THINKS they might be in a relationship that has potential even though it is, to date, unspoken & so they aren't really SURE about the status. That same person gets asked out for a casual date by someone else...but has a little heartburn over the idea of that. Would it be cheating or damning the possibility of the first/hoped for relationship or is it just 'okay' & maybe even smart to give someone else a chance given that nothing has been clearly defined? I know my gut feeling...just wondering what you think & if a male perspective is different. Does it matter if it's the girl being asked out by a guy or the guy being asked out by another girl? My perspective....stop thinking so damn much. The " potential " relationship is ' unspoken '. Someone asks someone out...go out. You ( just saying the word, not pointing at anything in particular ) can't sit around waiting for someone else to figure out if they want to make the " relationship " a spoken one. Either ask the other....or go out. THINKING!!! Dang it! That always gets ya in trouble! ![]() |

Thanks, ladies.
It's bad enough that I am breaking one of the ( at least according to what I have read here ) cardinal rules by taking her to a concert on the first date. Of course, we ARE going to be going to dinner before the show....but the whole " walk in the park, nice quiet conversation " thing just isn't me. I am an ' opposite ' kinda guy. So far, she seems to appreciate that. Remains to be seen if she'll continue to appreciate it after next Thursday...lmao |

JAG.... How can I make my profile more appealing to the opposite sex. I send e-mails...nothing... mutual match... nothing... What am I doing wrong? Honest opinion?? To me, the first couple of lines sound just a bit harsh. Saying that you find " window shopping " insulting ( while true ) may be something that says ' attitude ' to a lot of guys. You have never seemed like a very negative person to me. But the first part of your paragraph does come off that way a bit. You should also try to write more about what kind of guy you are looking for. You really need to give guys a ' lead ' as far as what you want from someone so that they can determine on their own if they suit you. |

You have never seemed like a very negative person to me. But the first part of your paragraph does come off that way a bit. I just recently put that on there... I was sick of guys just looky looing at me... I am not a piece of meat... Thanks for the advice I will switch it up a bit....

I understand where you are coming from with that.
But you can't let a few ( or even a bunch ) of idiots make you put something in your profile that could potentially turn the good one away. |
