There are things we don't want our first date to know about and that is a mistake. First impressions are important so why waste time hiding important personality traits? By the time you realize that you aren't a good fit, you have wasted money and time which causes frustration. FOR INSTANCE: I'm opinionated, bossy, and bluntly honest. It scares the timid guys who ask me out. What are YOUR PERSONALITY TRAITS that you don't bring to your 'FIRST DATE' table? I can seem like one of those timid guys, but I'm not. My personality can be a bit confusing, especially to those who don't know me well. There's a lot of things I don't really care about and don't find that important, this makes it easy for me to compromise, but I'm not a push over. If you take the time and effort to actually get to know me, it can be a rewarding experience. I tend to hold myself back, maybe a bit too far, taking things too slow. If I didn't hold myself back, I would be the type to fall fast and deep in love. I would like to find some one I could fall deep in love with though. My heart and my head are in constant battle with each other. If you hold back so much, what do you do to make someone actually want to get to know you? Sometimes, I find that the really introverted guys who don't put themselves out there are tough to get to know. After trying for a bit and they don't open up, I end up giving up. I try to be open, but then when people get too close, I tend to push them away. Why do you push them away? What does it take for you to let someone get close to you? And if you're not letting anyone get close, do you expect people to stick around and wait for you to resolve whatever issue is holding you back? |

I don't expect anyone to stick around. It would probably just raise red flags if they did anyway.

No offense, Shayna....but we discussed this in another thread, and I don't want to repeat myself. Here's the link to Alterette's thread. It basically the same topic. http://mingle2.com/topic/show/305210 |

Also, I don't bother to read every thread and if its not on the first page, I'm not gonna see it. |

I just wanted to refer you to the thread so you could read some of my responses. I didn't want to try cutting and pasting between threads.

Financial stability! My old boss was apt to say, "I've been broke a time or two, but never poor." I'm sure you are rich in other ways. Is my Pollyanna bow showing? He is rich in other ways, he makes a fun party guest and a terrific mobile concert-LOL |

I dont know about the first date alone, but i NEVER bring Patience to the table, HAAHAA. sorry guys...I cant stand lateness and flakeyness. My patience is thinner than a spiderweb. You wont see it until you bust right through it.
I also dont like bringing finances to a first date..I mean i'll pay and treat but i dont like to discuss how much i make and what not.. |
