sound advice. i thnk i am doing alot of that. dating is definitely an evaluation. like a job interview. i like the shop around metaphor.. lol
i am not in attachment mode..lol maybe the opposite. i am not afraid of commitment at all, i am just being hyper selective i guess. there are things that i can look past or be willing to work with or around. it is the major things i know i can't deal with, that send me running. i am a nice guy, fun, hard working, attractive( so i'm told =) ), a great father, and not completely crazy. i am looking for an equal for me. not even looking i dont think. i was for a month or so, then got irritated with the whole scene. figured i wasnt ready and went on with my life. now i am getting asked out and people are trying to set me up on blind dates,scary... so i guess in my horribl round about way, i am saying that i am not looking for a new wife or girlfriend. if someone who really catches my eye comes along...great! till then, i think im going to keep being me and stay away from the crazy people.
with regards to the kids, i'm not a big fan of them meeting these women. they have only met this one i'm talking about now, and that was only at open skate so it wasnt really anything. i thought this "R" might be going ok until i met her kids. total deal breaker. i feel bad saying it, but it is the truth. i am usually a total kid person. i like what you said about the kids and getting attached. that is a huge fear of mine. that is why i mainly keep my dating totally separate from my kids. besides, when i have them, they get 100% of my attention.
i love the 5 LL's. i'm bilingual! lol... alot of the R&D i put into trying to save my M comes in helpful in other
