Hmm, maybe your approach or conversation is all wrong? I know when I met guys; I loved talking about a number of different things but the once I mentioned say doing my own renos; that usually ended the date. They simply didn't want to hear a woman saying she could do things for herself, so I had to pretend to be dumb to keep their interest in me. That approach worked for a while but eventually I had to be myself and again it was game over. Incidentally; it was my friends' idea to act dumb but it made me feel very dishonest and guilty; so this is why I would have to come clean with them as I make a lousy liar.

Wow! the things we will try; you should have persuaded him with a devastating left shin to the
Liver ouch
I guess those men still exists,I would think it wouldn't be as common in North Alberta & BC as many woman work in gas & oil field construction/construction.
that's the city for ya I guess,to many girly girls.

Yep, the boys here like the girly girls. Guess I will get a taste of being on the oil fields when I start working up North. Heading up there myself on fly in/out job.

Ok, so I'm wondering how come so many men pretend and say they don't care about a woman, when their actions clearly reflect that they do. Is it that scary for a man to admit they have feelings for a woman? I'm going thru this right now, he SAYS has no feelings for me except friendship, but his actions say different and I'm so confused by it all. Anyone want to chime in feel free!

This is a man afraid of commitment. He fears that expressing any feelings beyond friendship means.... the marriage trap.

I suggest you take him at his word. He probably 'cares' about you, maybe likes to have sex with you, maybe enjoys your company, but he does not want that to get more serious.

Don't delude yourself into thinking it will change. He will be looking around for someone else and when he finds someone he does go ga ga over, he will drop you like a hot potato.

If you want a serious relationship, I suggest dropping him first.

Oh fly in! that's nice(I hate driving)
I guess you need you oil field tickets:H2S,fist
aid, ect. I may end up working there yet, before break-up,if this job doesn't last.Now we have a big seismic job in bucking horse BC, that's located about an hour south of Fort Nelson, on the Alaska HWY.

Not sure what you are going to do up there to start
but there's a ton of security jobs in the ft Mac.
area.
I would imagine you could pick where your want to work up there.
One would want to work directly for Sun cor or one
of those.
Four years ago there base rate was $35 per hour
12 hour shift, ot after 44 h, so that's 40 h ot per week. Often 2 weeks straight with a week off.
that's a great gig! sit in a warm booth and walk out
and check passes
