Shhhh! The "no settling" crowd might hear you! :)

I have to agree with MM. I've been dating a guy 17 years older than me for what, 8 months now almost. I never really thought it would turn into anything, but to be honest, it's been a very different relationship.

 

For once, I've got a man that actually seems to listen when I tell him something is wrong, and he also *gasp* actually tries to change it in the future if he has anything to do with it. For example, when we first started dating I had mentioned that I preferred contact to be more regular, and well, he then started to do it more regularly, and we in turn started to get closer.

 

It's actually a pretty amazing thing to have someone that actually does take me into consideration into his actions. I can't say I've always had that. It's nice.

 

Whatever happens with this relationship, because I'm not a mind reader, at least I've learned that I shouldn't always follow the list. After all, he would have been weeded out, had he looked or acted his age before I realized he was his age. I thought he was 43 when we met, which was also out of my normal range, but wasn't so bad to me that I didn't give it a shot. When I found out he was 51, I could have bolted, but I didn't. Not sure why, but so far, I'm glad I didn't...

:laugh: There's nothing wrong with the box. It has the potential for an open, honest relationship.

Actually THE BOX is probably the only one I would date!

The more I think about the box, the better it sounds. At least it wouldn't nag incessantly!

SO, for those of you who are lonely : Try the older, younger, fatter, thinner, blacker, whiter, less/more educated, whatever-er that you didn't give a chance before and you might be pleasantly surprised !

 

Great pep-talk....but unfortunately, alot of these single people will prefer to remain single and alone.....as opposed to settle. After all, you won't be happy if you settle. <shrug>

I don't see it as settling. I see it as giving something new a try. It's all about semantics. Let's use an analogy. Say you don't usually try spicy food. SITUATION A: One day you go out to eat Thai food and you just decide, hey what the heck I'll give the spicy Rad Nah a try and BAM you love it - that's not settling. SITUATION B: You get to a buffet dinner late and all that's left is a spicy dish and so being as hungry as you are you give it a try and BAM you love it - that is settling. In both situations you discovered you love something you don't usually try but in situation a it's not settling and in situation b it's settling. So I guess my point is it doesn't really matter how you arrive at that delicious spicy dish you usually wouldn't have tried - the point is you tried it and you loved it and maybe next time you'll be more willing to try a different dish you would never have tried before!

 

I know its been true for me - after getting two ivy league degrees and dreaming of that super-intellectual blonde haired blue eyed man who is a bit older than me, I decided to give my slightly younger than me long-haired heavy metal musician a try and he's been kinder, gentler, better communicator and more interesting to talk to than any of the guys i've met who do meet my "ideal".

 

So now i don't have an ideal - i just want someone to love me and treat me right!

Kinda nice to see a bunch of healthy, loved women around. Good on ya! :)

I dated someone "out of the box" but I think I picked all the wrong ways to be out of the box. Like he was in the gutter instead, covered with crap. But I picked him up and thought "oh what a cute one - just damaged and dirty - but oh! so! out-of-the-box!"
