I've been back on OKC for a couple of months now, and all the guys I've been out with I met on the site.

 

Last month I went on a date with a guy my age (25). Creative (working in videography), intelligent, and very cute. We had a really good time, he asked me out for a second date, I said yes. He cancelled on me the day of and then I never heard from him again, though he did visit my profile a few times over the last couple of weeks.

 

After that there was a bit of a dry spell, and then I started talking to two guys. I met both of them just this month.

 

Guy #1 I've already friendzoned. We got together twice, most recently on Sunday. He's fun, very intelligent and nice, a year younger than me; we got along well, but I just wasn't feeling attracted to him. I compromised a bit on the attractiveness factor; he isn't my usual type. He's tall and kinda lanky but with hints of pudge (in the face, particularly) and I just don't go for that. I like guys who are lean all over.

 

Guy #2 I've met once, and am meeting again tomorrow. He's 27. We got along really well on our first date, laughing a lot. He's sweet--he sends me random texts (it's not a requirement for me to be in contact every day; I prefer my space, but I find it cute), and he walked me back to my building which was a couple miles away, late at night, even though he had to go all the way back downtown (he took the train in, he lives in a nearby town and rarely drives, which I also like). He seems rather quirky and spontaneous, a bit of a hipster type.

 

I'm hoping I at least get a good makeout session tomorrow night; I haven't seen any action in some time and I'm losing patience in everything because of it. :laugh: With regard to what else I'm looking for...eh, I'm just seeing where things go with each person, and if/when it burns out, it's back to the drawing board. Or not.

:bunny::bunny::bunny: for the chance at some action... I envy your possibility -- it has been dry on my end and my only chance is thousands of miles away

Don't even tell me you're talking of your ex, Smile :eek::mad:

 

I could've gotten laid this past weekend by some really hot guy, but he displayed some really nervy, douche-y behavior by hitting on me less than two hours after his would-be booty call left in a sulky fit because she wanted him all to herself and we were all hanging out together in a big group. I didn't want it THAT bad.

My most recent date.

He lives in my neighborhood. Good looking. Noticed him a few months ago while we were each walking our dogs. Worked up to exchanging smiles and hellos. I never stopped. Finally met at a neighbors party. Spent the evening chatting, flirting, having fun. I was excited.

 

First date a month ago. Cocktails and Music, Very sweet, casual, Entertaining, Kiss Goodnight. Hot .

 

2nd date a week later. Dinner. Very romantic, elegant place. Quiet. We both look great. Somehow, before I finished my entree I called him a racist and he called me a militant lesbian. Whispering in that loud way.

 

Awkward ride home.

It sure was. I nipped it in the bud real quick. Our friends thought it was hilarious; apparently Hell would have to freeze over before this guy would be turned down. Guess we should break out our ice skates ;):laugh:

 

I am very much looking forward to tomorrow. It was supposed to be tonight but then we mutually decided tomorrow would be better, being Friday and all.

 

2sure, that sounds horribly awkward, especially after such a promising start. What happened to make you call the guy a racist? I'm sure, given how intelligent and grounded you come across on this board, that it was well-deserved.

No!! No way in hell!!

 

This guy I dated in the sunshine state and saw when I visited last month. However he isn't actively pursuing as he was when we first dated. However I cut him off before because of the distance and trying to reconcile with the ex. See how great that worked out? Lol

 

I am tempted to try OLD but I don't know if can handle the flakiness.

Eh, I have been a bit cranky of late. We were talking about Basketball Wives. I know, I know.

Oh, OK. Good :laugh:

 

You should at least give OLD a try. Flakiness is common, but in my opinion it's worth it. I've had a good bit of success. For the most part, you get what you put out. I put forth a lot of effort in writing my profile--making it entertaining, interesting, funny, etc--and it's great as a weapon to weed out the guys who don't bother paying attention to anything you write/send out 'stock' messages.

:lmao: I haven't seen or heard that phrase in so long. Love it.

 

I think you'd think this guy I'm seeing again tomorrow is cute--he's tall and lanky and brown-haired and beard-y, like your BF. :laugh: I'm trying to get used to dating taller guys--all the guys I mentioned in my initial post are over 6'. I'm trying to keep an open mind but I find myself wondering "Is this going to work?" and hoping it won't feel awkward if we kiss.

Dooooo it!

 

I cannot wait for the male-LS-poster hate I'm about to get after saying this, BUT...

 

All the guys I've dated in the last 5 years, previous to my current BF, were on the shorter side. I'm between 5'8 - 5'9, and they were all 5'7-5'10. Not "short" per se, but shorter than or the same height as me. I was very attracted to them and honestly considered them my type.

 

I was caught a little off guard by my boyfriend's height and build initially...6'4" and slim/athletic...just never really been my "type."

 

But after getting to know him and developing emotional chemistry with him, I can honestly say I love his body and height and I love the fact that he's so much taller than me. I've never gotten to look dainty and cute in photos next to my boyfriend before, never had to stand on my tippy-toes to kiss my boyfriend before (without heels of course), and I have to admit, I love it. :love:

 

If I date again in the future will I rule out shorter guys? Of course not. I've dated them for years and would continue to date them if I met one I had chemistry with. My point was just that you should push the boundaries of your "type"...you might be surprised to figure out that you have a whole new "type" all together. ;)

 

Have fun!!! :)

Fun fun. :D

 

I have another first date this Saturday. He's cute, sexy, smart as hell, got his master's at my rival university, 30 (5 years younger), and is already sweet and attentive with communication/texts (which I love).

 

I'm thinking I probably shouldn't bring him home after the first date, but I have summer fever big time, so I'm not sure how strong I'm gonna be. I think I'm going to clean my house just in case :p

I cleaned my apartment and did laundry all this week; I just finished washing the few dishes I had in the sink. :laugh: I'm wondering if I should break out the trimmer; it's all untamed wilderness down there :lmao:

:lmao: I always "get ready" and wear hot undies for any date, because then I just feel sexier - UNLESS I am totally sure I don't want any hanky panky, and then I will avoid it as a deterrent to myself.

 

I was just telling my friend on the phone that I wish I could just make out with him - but once I get turned on, I have no restraint! I cannot think straight! If this guy walks into my house, I will almost certainly be waking up in his arms. Arghghghgh. :p

 

My house is kind of a wreck right now, and I don't care too much - as long as the sheets are clean. :D

You should probably do so in case he doesn't bring a machette...highly recommended.

I always find that a little funny that women did that...to feel sexier, but it makes sense...I can't say men are paying much attention to it unless It's very sexy (for me lacey on the borders that bring out the butt)..ugh I don't know my womans underwear but some can be extremely sexy.

 

i wouldn't worry too much about the state of your house, although it's nice when you don't have shoes and clothes strewn about ;)

I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet. I'm leaning toward not bringing him home after the date, because the more we communicate, the more he seems to be a real prospect. I want to let the anticipation build a little, so that when we do get physical it's fireworks and sparkles. :cool: Of course, we won't know till we actually meet - but I've been thinking about him all week, in part because he's maintaining steady but light contact via text, which I really like.

 

He even bought our movie tickets ahead of time, since the place we're going sells out fairly often on the weekend. We're both open, honest communicators and good planners. And he's so smart and cute!

 

Ahhhh, I love being excited for a date :D

Good luck on both your dates!!!

 

it is really exciting! And I say ALWAYS be prepared for any occasion! Wax, trim, clean, wear nice undies, the works!! You don't want to be caught unprepared!

 

I was supposed to have a date this week, but it fell through due to him having to help out a friend that got fired and had to move out of her room... I was a bit disappointed, even though we hadn't made set in stone plans, but had still been looking forward to getting to know him better all week!

 

Hopefully we'll manage next week. And hopefully we will actually manage to get to know each other and see if there is something there other than ridiculous attraction! Hoping there is!

I miss having a connection with someone! I've done the casual thing this past year, since my ex and I broke up and even though love single life (and don't ever have too spend too long without any action if I don't want to), I am now ready to have someone more permanent in my life, who I can share my life with!

Soooo...it went really well. :bunny:

 

He bought dinner and then I bought drinks at a dive-y place that was having a battle of the bands. We went walking through the park along my street and we stopped to sit on the steps that go right into the river. It was rather lovely, seeing all the lights on the river and a star here or there in the sky. He went in for the kiss, and we were there for awhile.

 

I brought him back to my place, where we proceeded to hardly keep our hands off each other for the rest of the night. We didn't have sex since there were no condoms, but what we did do was ridiculously hot. He's really dominant, and his being tall (6'2") adds to that quite a bit. I feel smaller, more dainty, around him and it's been a long time since I experienced that. I quite like it.

 

Oh, and Ruby--thought you'd like to know--he's a Leo. :cool:

Ahhhhh! Fellow fire sign. You go, girl. Sounds so dreamy and HOT!! I loved your date story :love::bunny:

 

My date is a Virgo - perfect earth sign match for water sign me. :D And he's SUCH a Virgo. Super smart and analytical, nerdy inside but cute and becoming more stylish on the outside (just like me), totally detail-oriented, planner, perfectionist.

 

I still don't know what's going to happen after the date - but I am cleaning my house top to bottom just in case, and changing the sheets. Never hurts to be prepared :p

My date was fabulous. We hit it off immediately, had a lovely evening out, and he ended up spending the night. It was wild, hot, and amazing!! He was wrapped and tangled around me all night like a barnacle (love). I am floating in the clouds today :D He is cute AND sexy AND smart AND a great communicator and so many good things. I'm preparing myself for any possible next step, but I can't deny that I like this guy a lot. I'm just enjoying the feeling :love:
