Decisions

I made the decision yesterday to end the relationship I was in. It was one of the harder decisions I've made for quite awhile. He is someone that I care about, but i'm not able to be the person that he needs. It's the first time in a long time I've let someone into my son's life. My son and his son got along great, he just asked about his son tonight and if they could hang out again. I had to tell my son I wasn't sure, it depends on a lot of things. I made a mistake in letting things happen to quickly because I was wrapped up in a relationship that I thought was going to be amazing. He brought me flowers and fixed my car. He told me he loved me, but I wasn't ready. I cared deeply, but love is such a hard word. Every man I've loved has managed to walk out of my life. I couldn't love that quickly. I cared deeply, but love - that's big for me. It's life changing big... I was falling in love. I couldn't say it back and it caused some tensio...

Ghosting is this new thing where the person your talking to (or dating) just disappears because they are too chicken to say it's not working or they found a better option. It's a crap way to behave and thanks to technology it's a growing thing. I recently went on a couple dates with a guy. On our last date we went to Olive Garden. I'm pretty sure he thought we were going to a really classy place... so I think we're going to call this guy Never Ending Pasta. You'll never guess what he ordered. Anyway, Never Ending Pasta and I were supposed to go to the local hockey team game. They're in the playoffs and I got seats on the glass to have an amazing view of the game. The deal was I'd get the tickets and he'd get dinner before the game. I texted about midday, called in the early afternoon. No response. He ghosted me, never called or texted back. I went to the game, had a couple drinks (thought I was SUPER COOL drinking beer with a straw) with my amazi...

The Sundial

My favorite dating site is Plenty of Fish. It's free and entertaining. The message of the morning was a local-ish guy who decided that he needed to tell me that while looking at my pictures it made his personal sundial tell him it was noon. Now this took me a moment to comprehend... why would his personal sundial.. OHHHH, that's what he meant. Entertaining and inventive, yes, welcomed information, NO. Who the heck says things like that? I've gotten more adult pictures and too much information emails to last me the rest of my life and honestly probably the lives of everyone reading this too. Men, reasonable females don't want your adult picture, they don't want to know your bodily reaction to my picture, or what you would do to me if I was there, we don't want to know the details of your last encounter with a woman either. There has to be some women who encourage this behavior out there because it just keeps happening, however lets try keeping it classy ...
