BA, I no longer feel the need to 'duty date' and I really just want to go out with men I'm truly interested in.
I got to this point as well. I felt like I was just going out with people after the first "date" even though it was less than thrilling just to be nice. Then Barbara popped back into the picture and what a difference in feeling it is to be going out with someone you are really into versus just going through the motions hoping something might evolve. I hope that amazing man is in the very near future for you!
Oh and the Red Rocks workout sounds both very cool and very painful! I'd love it too!
