Lately I have been keeping my eyes peeled when I go shopping for food. I do agree with you about thinking like a man, it does help.. but its difficult to find them.

But you've gotta look at your no ink "policy" and seriously make a decision... you meet someone perfect for you but has a tattoo... is it worth passing that up? and as it's one of your first checks... you wouldn't even know what your missing...
My ex Lei, had several tattoo's when we met... one on her foot, one on her lower pelvis, and the tramp stamp every girl who turned 18 in the 90's has... it was ok with me but I didn't want her to get anymore as, like you, I thought it'd ruin her gorgeous body. she got 3 more basicly covering up her back and one down her arm. horrible in my opinion... but that doesn't change who she was or the fact that I loved her. the Ink thing is skin deep and I understand you have a preconcieved idea of what your family foto would look like... and your wife doesn't have tats... but like I said before... you can't control what others do, say or want... |

I will get married once. PERIOD. I hate divorces... I think they happen WAY to often for a variety of reasons... but usually because people jump in to them to early... or quit. mostly the latter IMO... not everyone who married in the 30's or 40's was right for each other... nor did they go with out think'n they got into something they weren't ready for... but they made a commitment and stuck to it. now... they quit. and on one hand I can understand, if you realize 5 years down the road, damn this person has changed or really isn't who I thought they were after try'n to make it work. but that's all the more reason to take your time before make'n that jump. now I'm not condemning anyone who's had a divorce... I could care less what you or anyone has done in their personal lives... that's just how I choose to live my life... ![]() |

I'm 38, and I see women all the time that I'd like to get with. The only problem I'm married and usually they are too so that kills it right there. The older I get, the more I know exactly what I want in a woman and can usually spot it pretty quick.

Dova, I've been exactly where you are, so maybe I can impart some wisdom your way.
Having critera for someone you consider dating material is fine. You need that. We're all picky in our own right. For a long time, I didn't go out with someone because she a) smoked, b) had kids, c) whatever else was on my list. I was pretty particular about these things for a long time. My best friend pointed out to me exactly what Ebbs did to you in this thread. You don't know what you might be missing because you're not even giving them a chance. Basically, what he told me was "You're not necessarily going to marry them. Go out with them." My argument was the same as Ebbs. I didn't want to date unless I could see a possibility for a long term relationship. Every year, I asked myself "What's the problem?", "Why am I the only one who can't find a girl to love that loves me back?", "Am I really that bad a person?" Thanks to a few reasons, I realized that some of my criteria was a bit silly for *me*. What did the trick? I'm not sure. I think there were a few factors involved, not the least of which was age. I was definitely where you are when I was in my late 20s/early 30s. Yet, at 36, almost 37, here I stand engaged to a wonderful woman. If you had asked me at this time last year if I would have guessed I'd be here, I would have laughed and said no. At even 30, I wasn't really ready for kids, and I darned sure didn't want to date a woman that had kids. Again, here I am with Carolina. She has two adorable girls. I love those girls as if they were my own. Besides, they give you those moments that you just can't do anything but get all sappy about and say *awwww*. Last week when I was in Austin, we were sound asleep. I woke up in the middle of night and Alee, the almost 3 yr old, had a bad dream or something, woke up, and came into the bedroom. I woke up with her curled up beside me about half asleep. I can't begin to explain what an amazing moment that was. I've been around the girls for 7+ months now. As Carolina says sarcastically, *It's a good thing they don't like you.* ![]() Now, for the most important part of what I'm going to say. Take every relationship, every friendship, very importantly. Get what you can out of those, as they will play a huge role in the person you become, and the person you let into your life in the future.

Wow! Very rarely do I read an entire thread (at least one that's 10 pages
![]() Being single isn't easy. I'm not in your same boat but it's similar. I think that I'm solid and I think that I deserve someone who's solid as well. Being single in my early 30's isn't easy. I too would prefer someone who didn't have kids or someone who hadn't been divorced already. ![]() I've got other picky little things that I don't like but I'm more flexible about (smoking, etc.). I think I'm the female version of a lot of you males out there. Unfortunately for me a lot of guys get intimidated. But the thing is....I don't want a guy who's intimidated by a strong woman. ![]() I want someone who loves me for who I am and not only wants but appreciates a strong woman. I'm smart and not afraid to admit it (but not egotistical about it either. ![]() Someone will be lucky to have me. And I deserve someone who will appreciate that. I'll know it if/when he comes along. ![]() |
