In Progress 1/4/2005
A relationship in progress is a very nice time; it's
new with no 'history' to spat about or, ideally,
unrealistic expectations.
<br>
<br>
I have a few phone conversations with a lady I met online.
We're the same age and earned our masters at the same
school. We are both professionals and would like something
more personal than those we must encounter daily.

Easier Said. 12/30/2004
There are times when it is harder to 'say' it than
to 'do it' whatever the 'its' might be.
<br>
<br>
For example, when I told my lady 'it's over, '
it was a result of care reflection about how much more of
myself was I willing to give to one who had no appreciation
of love's meaning.
<br>
<br>
It was far more difficult to say than to follow up with action. ...

Nice Guys Finish Last? 12/28/2004
In dating, is it generally true that Nice Guys always finish
last?...Is it because Gals want/admire guys who project
the excitment and confident arrogance of the "Bad
Boy"?....Do some girls have social misconceptions
that confuse Lust with Love?

Jazz 12/26/2004
I can think of no better analogy to a personal relationship
than jazz.
<br>
<br>
When I put on my musician's cap and sit in on a jazz session
it is usually with musicians I'm performed with in
the past. There are times - and probably the most fun - when
a group get together who've never played before.

The common thing said by at least one of is, "There

According to Aesop, a frog hopped out onto a riverbank to
be confronted by a scorpion. The scorpion told the frog
he needed to get acroos the river to find food but scorpions
can't swim. The frog said he would be glad to let the

Response to :- Networks 10/5/2004
Building networks can have a dual effect. The exposure
can help someone see and find you. I can't help but think
you're being a little paranoid about harm coming to
you. If this is the case I think it would sense you shouldn't
even have your photo posted once. People can browse and
find you and a network isn't needed to do this. The same
people that can browse that can view networks.

Keeping your profile active 10/4/2004
I recently started dating a man . We met through this site. We live in the same city and have had several dates. I am completely taken with him.
My problem is that this guy continues to keep his profile on the dating site and visits it frequently. He says he goes there only if someone contacts him. I told him it makes me feel insecure; he said until he feels "safe" (previous women have left him ...

Firstly, nacsingle, remember that this is the internet

people here all the time is simply a fantasy! Just a little
bit of advice here, when you meet these men, do you feel if
they have paid attention to you, that you may be coming on

their feelings too quickly? ...

Building a Bridge Between Australia and Iowa 9/19/2004
I am currently in a relationship with a gentle man in Australia.
Just for the record, Iowa is 8, 624 miles away from my friend.
Is it easy to build a relationship with someone so far away?
No. But, if we do become a team, then it was worth the risks
and the gamble. At least with the Internet and phones, we
are able to communicate. And we have an expression, "Cards

Resonse to: Online love. 9/8/2004
All this sounds rather romantic and I am sure it would make
a good romance novel but wouldn't it be more productive
to find a love that could be seen, felt, held and do other
things with? Holding a real hand is warm and not cold and
clincky like a keyboard and keys. Real eyes are much nicer
to look at than a monitor. Maybe this is something you should
think about. Some real people may not ...

Reply re deadbeats... 8/27/2004
First of all...I don't know if the statistics are right
or wrong that are quoted. Personally I don't care.
I know that I don't want to be involved with someone
who is less than straightforward in meeting this type of
obligation. No person should be a deadbeat when it comes
to support. If you want to mess around with your ex
regarding spousal support that's one thing and is
between ...

How can a relationship even start when you live so far away from the other? 8/25/2004
I am getting more disappointed because the men who respond
to my ad live so many miles away that it would be almost impossible
to even start anything up...emailing is fine, talking
on the phone is fine, but I want a warm body not some computer
keys or phone receiver...anyone else feel that way? What's
it take to attract someone who lives within 30 miles or so
of home?

In Praise of Older Men 7/19/2004
Today someone called me long distance and sang "You
make me feel so young" into my voice mail. How many
younger men would ever think of such a sweet, romantic gesture?
Older women have special needs for tenderness, romance
and respect that younger men seem to miss seeing. Cudos
to all those men who remember not to scare a lady off with
crude comments before you get to know the flower. ...

Age is an issue if you prefer someone younger/older. Otherwise,

men who like younger girls?
