I was not really, trying to be rude,I guess I was just being myself.That was my first thought,after reading the thread and profile.
JMO..no harm meant.

Is this nicer?

*snicker*

Setting yourself up for yourself? Isn't this like reverse match making? Maybe it could be assumed to be reverse psychology. Kudos. I like the idea. My situation is similar I suppose. I have one of my friends trying to set me up with his mom and another friend trying to set me up with her friend. They are in cahoots with each other I think. They figure since I am single that I must be desperate. He just wants his mom out of the house so he can spend more time with his daughter. His wife has even offered to drive his mother back to his mother's house. The other case is where the younger woman needs someone to watch her son. He is driving her bonkers and she is trying to raise him by herself. I am wondering if she really thinks I am that responsible or more responsible than she is I suppose. I think she is being responsible. Except that she didn't ask me out but had a friend do it for her. I really can't fault her for that if she really is that shy. It is a way of putting your feelers out there. Work told her that she shouldn't have her child at work with her. As a matter of fact they told her that her child should remain at home. It has been a bad thing and a good thing. Her stress level at work has gone down since she isn't trying to watch him and do her job at the same time. So many adults have begged her if they could spank him for her. It is like a maternal instincts convention or something you might watch on the Discovery channel except it is with a child instead of animals. But being a single mom she has had to find someone to watch him while she tries to live on the meager salary we get. I am impressed with her and just trying to support myself I think she must really be ingenuous. Have you ever been intrigued with someone else's mind and thinking?

I give big points for originality and wit!

As much as I would have dozens of children...thankfully, my adult kids have taken over that task...and besides there are dozens of little people needing foster parents...

Well that's just terrible :(

girl, i know the feeling.

i'm 38 and wanted to have one more before my body shuts down, but DANG no one available for marriage, let alone LOVE. smh

i'm perfect cept' i've been shooting blanks since my vascectomy back in 73'.

I will say this,,,THIS is a cool way to print a desire to FIND those interested in THINKING about THAT....

But to be very REAL here with your desires to have a child,,I would ask you,,to PLEASE first tell me WHY you would want to have one NOW in your life?
And you do realize that your be nearing sixty at their graduation from High School,,right?
Is your health good to be strong for that child through and into your fifties?
To many kids yours will be playing with as they grow,,,your seem more like that childs GrandMother to their friends than the childs Mother,through the eyes of their friends,,IS that ok with you?
Becase their Mothers will be so much younger than who THEY SEE YOU AS, at Fifty?
Hey,,just asking some real questions here??

I have blue eyes....but I'm a real down to earth a$$hole.

I might fit the bill, but marriage within the next 12 months is a disaster waiting to happen. Plus, throw in the LDR and the South Africa residence, it's not something I want to deal with.

Hm,ive always wanted to have children and im still waiting for mr right4without him itwill not happen. It is completely normal4awoman to want chldrn. 80%ofwoman do.bringing another inteligent being into this world to promote world peace is a good idea.

I've been in relationships where I knew someone much longer than 3 months. All it takes is one argument for one person to show a side of their personality they had never revealed previously. Suddenly you realize that things will never work out. Not because you haven't tried, but because your partner suddenly reveals they aren't willing to work as hard as you to make sure it does work.

Nope, you can't be in a rush to know someone. The pressure you impose on yourself alone may cause problems. You have to act natural and be yourself, and that means there is no way to impose a time table because both people have to act this way.

He isn't a handyman is he?

Same here, if not for that turnstyle fiasco at Disneyland.
