miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I am starting this because I am not trying to boast, but I date a LOT. I feel like men have this conception that because of my responses to certain posts I must not date a lot, or that I am unattractive. FALSE. Now you tell me, in the past 3 months, how many first dates have you had, and how many of those turned into multiple dates? Me? I have been on 6 first dates, and 4 of them I went on multiple dates with.
brahmabull117 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 How old are you by the way? Just curious cause I believe I read something about you having a divorce
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 How old are you by the way? Just curious cause I believe I read something about you having a divorce 21. 22 in a few days though! I got married right when I turned 18 and got divorced right when I turned 21.
brahmabull117 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 21. 22 in a few days though! I got married right when I turned 18 and got divorced right when I turned 21. oh wow, crazy. You look very young in your avatar and the divorce thing made it sound like you're in your late 20s
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 oh wow, crazy. You look very young in your avatar and the divorce thing made it sound like you're in your late 20s Yeah well it happens. Definitely not in my late 20s. As I said, I am young, and yet here I am, pursuing men, paying for dates, and looking for a good guy. I am telling ya, we are out there!
USMCHokie Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 ...or that I am unattractive. Seriously...? You are the opposite of unattractive... Now you tell me, in the past 3 months, how many first dates have you had, and how many of those turned into multiple dates? 0 and 0. 21. 22 in a few days though! I got married right when I turned 18 and got divorced right when I turned 21. Sadly, I completely understand this...

I am telling ya, we are out there! if you really do have the attitude in real life as you have on here, then you sound like a lovely catch. I'm sure you'll find a good guy soon BTW what can I do in real life to tell if a cute girl wants me to approach me or not? I'm not a bad looking guy I don't think - http://ak0.okccdn.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/16/150x150/558x800/10x0/160x150/0/4565858827294618568.jpeg http://ak0.okccdn.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/16/150x150/558x800/280x75/557x352/0/16842972762423674772.jpeg - my sister is in this pic so I'm sure there gotta be some cute girls who are interested in me, no?

USMCHokie Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 What a coincidence btw, I married a marine. LOL I kinda figured, being that you're in California...I was 98% sure...
ColoredBlack Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Well I'm sure the female numbers will be much higher 1 and 0

Aw thank you! I really am just taking my time finding the next keeper, that is the whole point of dating. I have met some GREAT guys, just none of them really have "fit" just yet. It is really simple actually, eye contact and a shy smile. That being said, I fully think men should have no fear approaching a woman. Rejection is a part of life and I can fully admit that I have been rejected, plenty of times! Sometimes you taking that chance can lead to something amazing, and for the most part... if you don't act crazy and she isn't a bitch, she will give you a chance to "charm her". Half the guys I have dated I never even noticed, and then there they were next to me. Sure, some guys I end up telling them I am not interested, but if the guy is nice and a good conversationalist, I am more than willing to give him a chance. I have dating all different types of men, and not all are what I would call extremely attractive. *shrug* Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. 1
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 I kinda figured, being that you're in California...I was 98% sure... RUDE! Haha Big mistake, met a lot of great guys though who I am still close friends with. I am surprised you aren't out barhopping and getting belligerent.

I'm not worried about getting rejected by a single girl, I feel more like an idiot for approaching a girl who has a boyfriend I wish girls in happy relationships would all wear like a promise ring to make it easy for us single guys
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 I'm not worried about getting rejected by a single girl, I feel more like an idiot for approaching a girl who has a boyfriend I wish girls in happy relationships would all wear like a promise ring to make it easy for us single guys :laugh: If that happens all you need to say is something like how lucky he is and wish her a good night. You think I haven't had the same thing happen to me?!?! **** happens, just have to learn to roll with the punches!
USMCHokie Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I am surprised you aren't out barhopping and getting belligerent. Hah, thanks... And this is why I tell people when I first meet them that I'm a veterinarian.

You think I haven't had the same thing happen to me?!?! **** happens, just have to learn to roll with the punches! I'm just going to ask her if she's single or not, that's easy enough, no? Only downside is I might miss out on the ones in terrible relationships looking to monkey branch to a better guy
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 I'm just going to ask her if she's single or not, that's easy enough No. Can't do that, ask who she is out with tonight instead. If she is taken she will reveal that then.
brahmabull117 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 No. Can't do that, ask who she is out with tonight instead. If she is taken she will reveal that then. Well I might approach women at a store or the gym. I can't ask them the "who she is out with tonight" question then Why would it be a bad thing to ask a girl if she's single? At that point she knows I'm interested anyways
Author miss_jaclynrae Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 Hah, thanks... And this is why I tell people when I first meet them that I'm a veterinarian. Well played. Besides, too many woman fantasize the whole "military relationship".

I can't ask them the "who she is out with tonight" question then Why would it be a bad thing to ask a girl if she's single? At that point she knows I'm interested anyways It is far too forward. Women get put off by that. It is easier to just ask for a number.
brahmabull117 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 It is far too forward. Women get put off by that. It is easier to just ask for a number. hmmm I'm surprised you say that. I've seen a few threads about this issue and almost all the women said it's perfectly fine as long as you don't come off like a forever alone creeper You may be in the small minority on this one

USMCHokie Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Well played. Besides, too many woman fantasize the whole "military relationship". I never understood the appeal myself. However, it's not necessarily the military to blame, but the individual. I find it hard to believe that the military didn't make him that way. He was that way all along. It's just that the military tends to draw certain types of personalities, and for a young couple, it just spells bad news. I have to deal with that nonsense every day.
