Thanks Being Me, I try! Hey, here's three more quotes that just came to me:
*When I told her what I do for a living she asked, "can you read minds?" * Wow, you work for the Salvation Army, that is so cool! *My favourite movies are Bridge Over The River Kwai and The Killing Fields.

Wii: You are not over MM. That's the truth! You are still angry about that. Please just forget her. I don't think YOU were ready for dating at that point and her brushoff really hurt you (it would have hurt me too and I can really relate). But I think you need to let that go. I honestly think she thought of you as a friend and I said it from the get go.
But whatever...
I admire the way you are sticking with the dating sites and handling all of it with good humour. You are hanging in there and that is how to find the right one. For the record - took me about 4 months. My "friend" who I had fallen for was right before I started online. Then I had about 4 or 5 coffee dates and a couple more that I went out with for dinner, movie, bowling etc. But I wasn't really into them.
You have to meet a lot of frogs before you find your princess.
Thanks Barb, in all honesty, sometimes I do think of her...maybe a funny thing she said will come to my mind and I'll smile. I'll remember when she wouldn't let me go to bed until I told her what was bothering me. Whether we were just friends or not, we had a nice feeling between us...and I miss that. We did care about each other and that's a special thing no matter what context it may have come in or how it ended. I don't feel anger towards her, I really don't. I also don't moon over her but there are times that I just miss her. I think that's pretty normal. Was I ready to date then, probably not but I worked my ass off to get there. I went out and made it happen, it didn't work out but that's the way the old heart bounces lol. But, as you say, there are other fish in the sea and I'm certainly trying to find them. Anyway, soon I'll have memories of other ladies that will be just as fond...and that hopefully will be much more clear and honest. I'm trying...but, in all honesty, it's damn hard. I've never been a "dater", I hated dating! Rejection s@cks but I gotta take the blows if I wanna find a R that is beyond my turtle lol! Besides, I'm getting a lot of good quote material out of this adventure
...and humour is my saviour. My shrink once said that it is my bizarre sense of humour that gets me through a lot of stuff. I'm sure it can annoy the heck out of other people sometimes but it keeps my head on straight!
OK, just putting together my favourite quotes from women I've experienced in one way or another in the past few months. The list will keep growing and with any luck come to a sudden stop when my mission is complete!
*this isn't a date, it's a meeting *I love to read about Nazi war atrocities *In my opinion, the Apache Attack Helicopter is the ultimate flying machine *When she told me that Alzheimer's patients at her workplace sometimes kick and punch her, I asked if she had any self defense training and she replied "I watch action movies, I like Rambo" * I asked her if she ever watched Dancing With The Stars, she replied "I can't, if I change the TV station the old lady I work with will attack me" *I don't need a man to take care of me, I can look after myself *I once dated a guy who kept phoning and bugging me, so I gave him to my roommate. *Hey, y'know that Facebook profile picture of me you like so much? For that last comment, I'm changing it! *You think like a grandpa *We were at her place, watching TV. She was flicking through the stations and I noticed a baseball game was on. I said "hey, there's a BB game" and she replied "get your own TV" *When I told her what I do for a living she asked, "can you read minds?" *Wow, you work for the Salvation Army, that is so cool! *My favourite movies are Bridge Over The River Kwai and The Killing Fields. *talking about the ex, "I was way too nice to that man" *I like you for your age...and other things
That's it for this issue, stay tuned for more exciting dating quotation updates!
Everyone says dating is supposed to be fun but I found it nerve wracking. I would have rather skipped "dating" and moved straight to "relationship" like many people try to do. Not usually a good idea. LOL
Anyway - every day is a new day and a fresh start. Keep your good humour and you will find "the one".

Absolutely Barb! It's like you have to be "on" at all times, that's tiring. I have never been rejected by so many women so often and I send out emails rather sparingly! At the same time, I'm overwhelmed by number of women who actually do respond. I calculate 35% of the ladies I've contacted respond positively. Wow. The coffee "dates" I have had I thoroughly enjoyed. I met two really wonderful ladies. In the faith I am a part of now, we believe that every person has a divinity within them so therefore with every lady I meet I am actually meeting another tiny piece of God. I like that thought...but it still scares the hell out of me lol. Thanks for your support, Barb. Aloha!
Here's my newest creation, a generic female online dating profile that can't miss. In my recent dating adventures I have read a oodles and oodles of women's profiles and therefore have selected the most common themes and put them into one amazing all purpose profile...it can be cut and pasted to any dating website and results are guaranteed! You get tons of great dates or...you don't. Hey, no need to thank me, the football game was over last night and I had nothing better to do!
Baby, it's you!
Hi, I'm a lady who is at a fantastic place in my life. I have an incredible career, amazing family and friends and a glow about me that just won't quit! I work hard but also know how to play hard too. I'm comfortable in either jeans or an evening dress. My friends say that I am the finest human being on the planet, but they may be somewhat biased lol (although they are obviously right!) But my real passion is travel and I've been almost everywhere in the world including my own backyard. My biggest dream in life is to one day to walk on the moon. I believe we only live once so why not try it all while you're here. I'm also super serious about fitness, when I'm not working or traveling, I'm at the gym... almost every day, sometimes twice, and often I close the place. Recently, they presented me with honorary keys! I love my spin class, hot yoga, pilates, biking, hiking, bungee jumping, sky diving, zip lining, scuba diving and walking on water. It's not all about me though, I love to do acts of random kindness for unloved telemarketers by listening to their entire sales pitch whenever they call. I've also been known to pull over to the side of the road just to wipe squashed bugs off my windshield and bury them in a Kleenex tissue. I believe you only get from life what you give, it's all about the karma, baby. I'm also a lady who is incredibly positive and always sees the glass as half full even when it's a cereal bowl. Now, in my downtime I'm studying Swahili , writing a doctoral thesis and making pottery. Recently though, I realized something was missing in my life. I noticed that although my days are incredibly full I have 15 empty minutes per week and that's where you come in. I'm looking for a caring, trustworthy professional man who exudes confidence and is comfortable in his own skin...that's so sexy. Yet, he also needs to be someone who isn't afraid to share his inner most feelings , make me laugh until it hurts, be my BFF and love my dog with a passion (who, btw, has the best gums of any dog I have ever seen!)...and he needs to do it all in 15 minutes or less per week. Are you man enough? If so, drop me an email pronto 'cuz your 15 minutes is almost up. P.S. if you don't have a profile picture or you're old enough to be my father then f*** off!
So if you use this profile, don't feel the need to credit me in any way, shape or form.
