serial muse Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 ...i just do. **** dating. norajane posted elsewhere about the bleakness of the dating scene for women after 35, and i don't know, it's working on my mind now. maybe she's right. i can't seem to find someone who's right for me and god knows i'm tired of worrying about it all the damn time. i wish i weren't allergic to cats. i could have 20 of them and desensitize myself to the smell. how do you become a cat lady if you're allergic to cats? maybe i should get a bunch of these :bunny: :bunny: i'm just so tired.
johan Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 It will happen when you stop looking. You'll meet the right guy when you least expect it. Just thought you'd appreciate having a little salt rubbed in your wound.
stoopid_guy Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 maybe i should get a bunch of these :bunny: :bunny: Nah, at least most men come house-broken already. You hear all the lonely, frustrated men here, and some of them are even single so you know they're out there. What have you tried so far?
Arianna72 Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I know how you feel Maybe try fish?? They seem like they would be low maintenance. Course they aren’t all the affectionate hrmmm…. Hamsters? I am so glad I am not allergic to cats. I want to be a cat lady when I grow up
blind_otter Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 haha, I have a bunch of dirtbags I could set you up with down in the swamp.
Flicker Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 Don't give up. Wouldn't you rather wait for something fabulous than give up and never have it? Try and shift your focus for a while. Try something new and try and take your mind off it dating. I know it's easy for me to say just don't worry about it, but it's when you aren't looking that you find the thing you most want. Besides, you are still practically a spring chicken. It will happen
Sally00 Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I'm allergic to cats, too. I hate it. Because I LOVE cats. In fact, I'm sneezing like a mofo right now and blowin' my nose all over the place at the moment. It's like there's a cat in here somewhere or somethin'. Btw, who knew a nose could hold so many boogers?

Once we all hit our late 30s and after its the men who have the advantage.
quietintrovertgirl Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 serial muse, I know how you feel.I'm in my mid 30's and my life experience. There isn't any good men out there to date.
Author serial muse Posted September 19, 2006 Author Posted September 19, 2006 It will happen when you stop looking. You'll meet the right guy when you least expect it. Just thought you'd appreciate having a little salt rubbed in your wound. well hello sunshine. What have you tried so far? the usual i guess. i've actually been out on quite a lot of dates, come to think of it. in the past i was more of a serial monogamist, so i didn't really "date" all that much. for the past year or two, though, it's like a hobby or something. i've met people through friends, at parties, online. i think i'm just exhausted with it, it's like a part-time job. Maybe try fish?? They seem like they would be low maintenance. Course they aren’t all the affectionate hrmmm…. Hamsters? i used to have a fish. his name was shipwreck. won him at a carnival. good old shipwreck. rest in peace beneath the gardenia bush. haha, I have a bunch of dirtbags I could set you up with down in the swamp. thanks B_O, but been there, done that. i did my time in the swamp. :lmao: (if you're out there reading this, and you know who you are, i kid! sort of. aw, mind your business, damn it.) Besides, you are still practically a spring chicken. thanks flicker. It's like there's a cat in here somewhere or somethin'. dude, i'm having the same problem. hmmm...who let the cat out? well SM...unfortunately that's the price women pay for having the upper hand in dating at younger ages. Once we all hit our late 30s and after its the men who have the advantage. sigh. you're right. i wish i hadn't played with all their hearts back in the day. i bet one of them was my one true love and now he hates me. :lmao: I know how you feel.I'm in my mid 30's and my life experience. There isn't any good men out there to date. of course, this is an alternate theory.... actually QIG, i don't think the picture is that bleak. in all honesty, i realized yesterday that, like i said above, i date more now than i ever used to. the difference is that these days i feel overwhelmed with the message that i have to hurry up about it or something. i never used to feel rushed, but now i do. and that's the part that sucks. gah. i just hate being rushed. hate it. it stresses me out. i was born in the south; i've got molasses in my veins. maybe i just need to get back in touch with my own preferred pace. i want to curl up in the afternoon sun and go to sleep. i don't think i want to own cats so much as i want to be one. sttttrrrrretch! ahhhh. purrrr.
Rooster_DAR Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 serial muse, I know how you feel.I'm in my mid 30's and my life experience. There isn't any good men out there to date. I wouldn't tell yourself that! I'm a great catch and I'm middle aged. Of course, I look a lot younger which is actually a good thing. I'm single, head on straight, good career and treat people well. Once I finally get over my EX and start dating again, I'm going to make some lady very happy. roost
