So true, Flowmom. And honestly guys, for me, it's not really about this particular guy - I mean, I liked him, but I don't KNOW him yet. I was just hoping to have some fun dates and maybe break my celibacy streak! And he seemed like the best offer I'd had in a while. Sadly, those four guys I described have been the best of the bunch lately!
That is one thing that has been good about depressed East Coast Suitor. Although he's 3,000 miles away, depressed and covered in red flags - HE thinks I'm grand, compliments me often, writes to me daily, and reminds me what it is like when a guy is really into you. Now, if I could just find a local, NON-depressed, (maybe taller) guy who felt the same way........
And Barb - you're right, really - any guy who doesn't think I'm a fabulous catch AND has the cojones to keep up with me, isn't worth my time.
As for the "follow your intuition" approach - I'm cautious about that. Sometimes it's not intuition, just pheromones. And they can get us into trouble, lol. I have to be careful and make sure I'm not just jumping a guy cuz he smells good and it's been a while.
