Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 So I faced my first mini-heartbreak in a very long time. Not because nobody rejects me, but because I never cared if they did. I gave myself one day to mope. I ate chocolate and popcorn and watched re-runs of The Bachelor. In bed. I sent a message to the guy that rejected me asking him to come over sometime (OK, embarrassing but it is what is is). He responded saying that he will come over "sometime" - no actual time. Cue in another block of chocolate. Some tears. Deleting/blocking him off things. Hugging my cat. I fell asleep early and wanted to start today fresh. It was not to be. It's a public holiday and gym is closed. So no gym. Then as I was preparing to run, it started pouring. Still didn't stop. I went on the dating site and started chatting with this random guy. He is...........OMFG hot, dark, edgy, dreamy. His Facebook page was even better. He kept gushing about me too. We are meeting up for cocktails on Friday and then seeing where the night takes us. The guy that rejected me long forgotten. Friday is a new day 3
Mme. Chaucer Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 But … I still think it'a a mistake to befriend new prospects on facebook. Leave some mystery! Have fun though. 1
Under The Radar Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I wouldn't be surprised if he started chasing you once you've moved on. Oh well, enjoy your date on Friday.
charlietheginger Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Wow how wierd when one door closes another Opens... I hate dating sites women use them for boyfriend Shopping.... May sound akward but it is what it is
CptSaveAho Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 How many losers are you going to bang before you figure out they just want sex and online dating is a joke? I couldnt even save you if I wanted to try
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 If you must know, I only slept with 2 men from OLD. I met 50+. I stopped counting at 50

The guy that rejected me long forgotten. Friday is a new day so to sum it up ES hops on the relationship merry go round again with a black man. I notice white women having trouble with their dating lives tend to go black like it will solve their problems. Some white guys think Asian girls will do the same. I sit back and eat popcorn as the drama of their lives unfolds to entertain me. That's the mature and responsible thing to do.
MrCastle Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I couldnt even save you if I wanted to try Then you should change your username 1
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 This new guy is so hawt and charming, he is totally out of my legaue. He is probably a bit too wild for a LTR potential. Fun potential 5 stars and no fun doesn't always have to involve sex.
LittlePrince Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 If you must know, I only slept with 2 men from OLD. I met 50+. I stopped counting at 50 You went through more than 50 people. I don't think the combined powers of that sex addict doctor Phil and Oprah could fix this.
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 You went through more than 50 people. I don't think the combined powers of that sex addict doctor Phil and Oprah could fix this. I think it's about 70 now....
MrCastle Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I think it's about 70 now.... So you've met 20 more since your previous post?
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 I just joined this new dating site. It's totally happenin'. So many more men to meet....
LittlePrince Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I think it's about 70 now.... In what kind of time frame?
LittlePrince Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I just joined this new dating site. It's totally happenin'. So many more men to meet.... The SPCA has a dating site?
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 So you've met 20 more since your previous post? I just went back and counted e-mails. I underestimated - it's around 70.
MrCastle Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I just went back and counted e-mails. I underestimated - it's around 70. Not bad. I mean it would be bad if you slept with all 70 Then again I would have done that if it was me...
Author Eternal Sunshine Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 In what kind of time frame? Hmmm probably a year. I took a break when I was in a relationship. I once had 4 meets in one day
LittlePrince Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Hmmm probably a year. I took a break when I was in a relationship. I once had 4 meets in one day Ever think that you aren't more focused might be the problem with your approach. 1
somedude81 Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Thanks Sunshine for continually pointing out that the other side has it much easier. Glad you're feeling better.
ascendotum Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Hmmm probably a year. I took a break when I was in a relationship. I once had 4 meets in one day Goodbye it was nice meeting you, We'll be in touch, oh and on your way out, can you please let the next candidate sitting in the foyer know he come in now. lol.
kaylan Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Hmmm probably a year. I took a break when I was in a relationship. I once had 4 meets in one day Jeez dude, I havent heard of a woman who has as many dates as you do and cant find a decent guy to settle down with. Out of the hundreds of guys youve gone out with over the years, something should have worked by now. It really does confuzzle me at times. Im picky too and I sure hope I dont need to go through many women to find what Im looking for. Good luck though.
tigressA Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I'm still quite stung by a rejection I got last week. This guy I had been talking to and wanting to hook up with basically led me on into thinking that's what he wanted too--we'd have these really sexy conversations and talk about what we wanted to do to each other. But whenever I suggested getting together he was always busy. Finally last week I asked him what the hell was up and he said that while he was really tempted, he 'doesn't really do casual sex because it doesn't work out well' and he 'thinks we work better as friends than if we were to date'. He was supposedly sorry for leading me on and blah blah. Haven't talked to him since. I can't believe he turned me down. ME! I'll forget about it, but it's just been bugging me no end since it happened.
kaylan Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 ^Lol...i can believe it. Sounds like he was making all the sex talk so he could gauge if you were someone who does casual sex a lot (which youve said yo do), and whether youd be down for commitment (which youve admitted you arent). So Id say hes into you, but just thinks its too risky to get involved. Just a good boy testing the waters and they werent too safe for his liking.
DC4 Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 I had limited luck with OLD. My profile must have been horrendous or something. Lots of guys looking for a "hit and run" and that's about it.
