Dating Funnies - Actual stories of dating

Most of my conversations and meetings, lately, have been in Arizona - one from Bumble, one from Tinder and one from Hinge as I was in Arizona for 3 weeks visiting grandkids. I have recenty entered into two conversations from Bumble in the Seattle area. (Surprise, Surprise!) Sadly each of them (Artizona and Seattle)  are still grieving the loss of a partner within the past 6 months to 1 1/2 years,...

I have been watching a new series on Hulu on Romance scams - Hey Beautiful: Anatomy of a Romance Scam .  As I am watching this series it reminds me of teh Tinder Swindler.  What perplexes me is that people are afraid to meet in person, over a quick cofee or drink at a public place but there are enough people in the world that are willing to "fall" for someone online and never meeting tha...

Yikes, the stuff I am running into now is enough for me to go back into hiding!!! I have been approaced on Match from Transwomen, married women and marrired traveling men to meet and date and YET my profile specifically is "man looking for women" for "intentional dating" for a LTR.  Oh, and the women that are still very angry about their divorces. Run Forest Run!!

Things appear to have gotten worse with trying to chat and meet someone these days and when you are lucky enough to meet them the challenges are comical, in so many ways - are they married? still live at home? have kids at home? ...and more. Yes, I will continue to do what I can to meet people until I find that "special" person. 

Happy New Year and Post Valentines Day  Yes, it has been a long time since I posted, mostly because I have been busy with work and personal commitments and projects but recently, I have decided to "lean" back into the "dating pool". Like many of us, I don't NEED someone, but it would be nice to have a companion/partner. Reluctantly I subscribed to Match.com again and regis...

Have a great Memorial weekend! 

Not too much to share in my personal dating life but am trying to reach out to people again as well as attend more social gatherings. 

Yes, it has been awhile since I have posted my "journey", or lack of a "journey" for the past several months.  Pleasse continue to laugh with me, not at me! 

Just a little update as to why I ahve been absent from my Podcast, not much really to share about my dating life as I put it on hold somewhat

Hope you had a great long holiday weekend here in the US. Todays podcast talks about being honest, transparent, and respect pertianing to ALL relationship dynamics. 

Was invited by James Newberry, the author, to read his book and after reading a few chapters I started processing the things I could do better in my dating profiles so that I too would be successful in dating and in meeting someone that truly would enjoy being in a relationship me and I with her - All very good suggestions in the book. 

Oh Boy! Been an interesting past few weeks. 

Lots of stuff these past couple of weeks - me trying to date "in the wild", the scam of Seeking.com, Dead beat dads, liars, and "dating stablility". Where has Lisa gone, she disappeared on me!!!

Really not much to share on my dating challenges, more on my thoughts on things I have heard or watched on TV.

Happy be-lated Valentines Day! Hope eevryone is doing well. 

Hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season? Been an interesting last few weeks with people I have chatted with on Bumble, Tinder, Hinge, Zoosk, Match,  Fet, and ALT. Nothing seems to surprise me much any more...HA HA

If you have not watched the following on NetFlix I highy recommend them: Longest 3rd Date (true story), and Love in the Wild.  This is the last time I will be discussing the GB, I promise...LOL

Just rambling a little about the mow infamous Cheescake Factory date and how she treated her date - a 1st date for them, my thoughts and opinions of the Golden Bachelor TV series and some of the contestants on teh show and of course the train wreck of a Match.com date I had this past week.

Just me rambling  as I am not getting much attention on Match or Zoosk as I must have a face that only a mother can love...LOL. I am being told, again, that I am damged goods because I am not in a relationship, yet if married people only knew how difficult it is today in trying to meet and date someone maybe they would be more empathetc.. married people should work on being "curious" ins...

Yes, I thought I would try buying a date, and that failed! Yes, another BAD tawkify date, I swear they do not read my profile as the people they choose are not what I describe in my profile on their site. How about building or have someone design and build you a room specifically for sex? So many options in the land of dating..LOL

A liitle bit about my Tawkify Zoom date with a woman in Scottsdale, AZ and my renewed efforts on Match, Bumble, Tinder and Hinge.  Also shared a thought about when you realize that we have 2 lives and the 2nd life starts when you realize you only have 1 life. I do need to start living the 2nd life, as do all of us!!

"Online dating is just as murky and full of lemons as finding a used car in the classifieds. Once you learn the lingo, it’s easier to spot the models with high mileage and no warranty" - Laurie Perry

Dating will always keep me on my toes, the far reaching expectations of other people just will never end for me.

Get tired of people saying I am a serial dater just because I am meeting people, for the 1st time, over coffee - Seriously?!  Since when does trying not count for anything? Especially when you first meet someone and you try to impress them with finding things to do that they like? Honesty, in ALL things is HUGE! Actions speak louder than words in ALL things!!
