Gineen - Happy birthday, darling! Okay, so he didn't send you a gift. Yuck! And Wii asked what I was saying out loud here - his profile pic is his schlong? WTF? I think you should report him. Help everyone out by getting this guy to have more class.
Getting back to the dating thing. My kids were younger and impressionable. I knew I had only one chance to get them through the anxieties of having separate households, and I didn't want to look back and have any regrets. I'm glad I made that choice. That was my priority and I never had second thoughts about rethinking things. I just couldn't picture dating. Period. It worked for me, and I'm not sorry I waited. Their emotional health was (and is) a price I was willing to pay to get them to adulthood intact.
For the record, Gineen, I didn't even mind celibacy. I was too tired to even miss it. Obviously, I don't feel that way now.
You could also do what my sister did when some guy sent her a photo of his package. She wrote back and said, "Wow. Is that it? It's pretty disappointing." LOL. I bet that wasn't what he wanted to hear...
