xoxoDaniellexoxo Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Ok everyone, on the LS board we hear about struggles people are having dating and sometimes we forget to ask about the good stuff. So ladies and gentlemen, had dating sucess recently? Asked out someone you have wanted to, or did you finally tell your SO you love them? Please share your sucess! Love, Danielle
Rinas Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I've been seeing someone for a month and a half now. I was the one to initiate the first kiss. Bold women.

Rinas Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Woot Woot!! Nicely done!! Do tell, good kisser, what does he look like, how did you meet?? Yep, was ages ago for first kiss. I think one of my previous threads actually entails my first kiss, which is rather hilarious.

Like today I was trying to find a dress and someone hit the door into my nose and this poor guy felt terrible for hitting me.
UpDownAllAround Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I've never had success. Started in high school. Still waiting and trying for my first girlfriend and totally failing at 31. Oh, well. At least I've tried right?

somedude81 Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 LOL, so only one person on LS is having success?
UpDownAllAround Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) I think I've seen you on another thread about this problem, up! What do you think is the problem? Have you been on dates? Been with a girl sexually? I've been on a couple dates...but that's it. I've had sex with a girl once...just have never had a "girlfriend" in any sense of the word. I still don't think I'm over "her" though. Met her in fifth grade...re-connected with her in '08. Been waiting for this my whole life. Told her everything...that I was (still am) crazy about her...and she chose someone else. She...chose...someone...else. Worst heartbreak of my life. We're still friends though. Still pining for her...still "saving" myself for her...hoping she'll change her mind. It happened in Titanic, right? Edited August 28, 2011 by UpDownAllAround

The ****er drowned in Titanic, my friend! That is what you are doing by being stuck on this girl. I can relate to that in a way. What is the big deal about having a girlfriend over being single? If you are with the wrong girlfriend then you will yearn to be single! You just have to be happy with yourself

What is the big deal about having a girlfriend over being single? If you are with the wrong girlfriend then you will yearn to be single! You just have to be happy with yourself Hahahahahaha...I love that first sentence. Hilarious. I don't want just any girlfriend though. I want her. If I can't have her then I'd rather be single. I wish she would see how amazing I am. Every day of my life since then is this song: You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy To never never know The one who loves you so No you don't know me... It seems to me that everyone very soon after they're dumped or rejected finds someone that lights their heart on fire moreso than the previous one. Why hasn't that happened to me yet? I just want to stop feeling this way. I want to be the amazing awesome person I was before 2008. Sigh. :( :(
thatone Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 LOL, so only one person on LS is having success? apparently sanman and i are doing ok lately too. there's at least 3. not with each other, with our girlfriends i mean. not that there's anything wrong with that!
counterman Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I've been approaching very attractive girls and even though most of them have boyfriends, I'm feeling more and more confident as each approach goes by, even if it doesn't lead to anything. It's a success on its own I guess
iris219 Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I don’t have a dating success to talk about, but I have an approach success. It was successful because I did it, which was the goal. There is a guy who I call Hottest Guy in Town. I see him every now and then around town. I have NO desire to date him. It’s just ridiculous how hot he is. I see him one night and decide to walk over and talk to him, just to do it. I have no idea what I’m going to say, but I walk up to him and introduce myself. He seems strangely excited to talk to me and says, “You live on Blank St.” I look at him funny because I’m thinking how the heck do you know where I live? He gets kind of flustered and says, “I’m not a stalker or anything, I’ve just seen you on Blank St.” Then he says that I’m pretty noticeable and that I look like a certain actress. This was successful because I was proud of myself for being brave and walking up to an attractive man and it ended up being somewhat of an ego boost, which I could use right now.
thatone Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 good for you. and yes, confidence in women is sexy. in fact you put him on the spot a bit by getting that stalker thought/apology in his head, so he probably thinks you're even more attractive now because you were able to take control of the conversation. get a date with him .

Oh, I don't want to date him. He's not dating material, but it was good practice in case any high quality men ever move to my area.
Janesays Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I'd say I'm feeling pretty successful. Been dating my current guy for 5 months or so and I love him to pieces.
grkBoy Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Ok everyone, on the LS board we hear about struggles people are having dating and sometimes we forget to ask about the good stuff. So ladies and gentlemen, had dating sucess recently? Asked out someone you have wanted to, or did you finally tell your SO you love them? Please share your sucess! Love, Danielle I got engaged a few weeks ago. Success came to me when I first changed up the kinds of women I'd persue...but also when I vastly changed and improved myself as a person. In 2004 I was a doormat nice guy who dressed a bit too "comfortable". I lived at home while trying to get over the dotcom crash/recession and get my life together. By 2008 I lost a little weight, learned to dress way better than I used to, got out of my home and bought a condo, had a decent job and did many hobbies/interests that generally made me interesting to the opposite sex. I'm no athletic adonis, and I don't charm girls into bed easily...but I went from "doormat nice guy" to "attractive eligible single man". Met my now fiance when I wasn't looking to meet anyone. We were introduced through mutual friends. I had those mutual friends because I led a sociable lifestyle where I encountered and connected with many people on a social level.
EasyHeart Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Seven months and going strong. Yesterday, we survived the annual pilgrimage to the State Fair. She ate cheese curds and let me pick fights at the DFL booth. But she stopped me from going to the AFL-CIO booth and asking, "Why do you hate freedom?" by pointing out that union thugs would probably blow up my car. If that's not love, I don't what is.
Author xoxoDaniellexoxo Posted August 28, 2011 Author Posted August 28, 2011 Congrats!! I will share mine too lol, ran into an old classmate that I had a crush on for three years and we talked and I asked him out! Went out and things were about as perfect as a first date could be, but then again we knew each other in our teen years so that probably helps!
Cee Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Hit the 7 month mark this weekend with my boyfriend and I am happier than ever. We have been spending the rainy hurricane weekend by going a party, having sex, and he's been cooking us meals. The extra time together has been great and we've had the chance to have some deep conversations. I could go on and on, but I'll spare you the nauseating details. It's hard to talk about success on Love Shack because there's no "problem" to analyze. Also, it is hard to describe love through the written word.
zengirl Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 I just spent another lovely weekend with my BF. He's fantastic. This is first relationship I've ever experienced where we could have a disagreement without even a low level of dissonance. Sure, it's still early, but since it seems to derive more from communication styles than the love drug stuff, I think it's a pretty good pattern. And, of course, it's early, so the love drugs are still flowing, which is nice too. He's also a really kind, lovely person, who makes me want to be a better person, and I think I do the same for him, so we work well together. Things are good. Congrats to all those who have hit milestones they're sharing and/or are just also doing well. Yay for happiness.
