Dating Lessons
These are a few things I’ve learned (or re-learned) through my dating experiences this year.
- It’s okay to cut my losses and move on.
- If something sounds too good to be true, it is.
- Taking things slow is good. You don't often hear people say, "The relationship probably would have lasted if only we had jumped in the sack right away."
- I don’t have to feel like a loser when someone doesn’t like me.
- I don’t have to feel guilty for not liking someone back.
- When a guy “takes it like a man”, he’s more attractive.
- Sex appeal is only 5% physical.
- A little cologne is nice. A lot will ruin an otherwise pleasant evening. I prefer nothing at all.
- The guy who borrowed his Mom’s minivan to take me out probably isn’t the right guy for me.
- The guy who lit up a joint in the middle of the date probably isn’t the right guy for me either.
- Even at my age, some guys get pissy if a girl doesn’t sleep with them on the first date.
- Believe it or not, most guys aren’t in a big hurry to jump in bed (Damnit! … teehee)
- I have good instincts about people. I shouldn’t ignore that.
- As adorable as they are, 20-somethings are too young for me.
- A lot of people who use dating sites also ride Harleys and like Nascar.
- There are a lot of lonely people in the world, but it’s not my job to save them … not even ONE.
- They say that opposites attract, but I’m more of a birds-of-a-feather kind of person.
- If a guy gets to be 40 or so and he’s never had a significant relationship, there’s probably a reason.
- I’m capable of acting like a cold-hearted bitch.
- We are all just trying to be happy. Some people will settle for feeling a little less unhappy.

I'm just happy to see you back here. . .
If I ever decide I want to date I am going to keep your rules in mind. It's a scary prospect after 31 years of marriage, though.
I'm glad to hear you're doing well.
They are all great pionts...I especially like #13...& I know yours are wonderful instincts.
