You know, dating just plain sucks. It's a pain the a$$, there's all these stupid games you have to play, and if you're a guy it can be expensive. And tonight, two prospects I thought I had going basically hinted at otherwise. Argh!



Sorry, just needed to vent.

Yes, dating just plain sucks. There is a simple solution - "Just say NO". Why waste your time and money?

DATING SUCKS



yes, i agree very much, girls are nothing but a waste of time, no offense to any girls, but what's the point?

from the female perspective--

Boys are a waste of time, too.

But MEN...now that's a whole new story...

I think it doesn't suck as bad when you're younger, but as you get older it really sucks.

What I can't stand the most is when you get sucked into giving up lots of money!

That just plain sucks!!!!

Artex, when you meet the right girl, it will be pretty obvious; no games, no guessing.

Hey, Artie. If it's a pain in the a$$, you're dating the wrong people! :)

I know, it's just been the wrong people all along, othewise I'd be married by now. At least I'm not bitter, and have a sense of humor about it all, but hey, it's still frustrating!

If dateing was free it would be easy!

The world also needs more quality chicks who are single and into backpacking (and if they were rich, all the better)!

I think Father Goose meant was wrong gender ; )

Ya now that would be cool.

Girls that like backpacking and love to spend money on you.

So where do I sign up?

Perhaps part of my problem is I make songs like this one: SORRY I ATE YOUR DOG
Artex

That was a cool song.

I got a good laugh out of it!

Boys . . . Men . . . let me tell you about relationships and dating . . . I've had some awful experiences and I'm only 23.

I mean AWFUL. I'm never dating again. Celibacy and nature hikes for the rest of my life.

Unpopular maybe, but not strange. After all there's an inverse relationship between dating and aging.

Plot a graph of interest in dating by decades. It's most popular in our teens and 20s (prime reproductive years), and declines steadily thereafter until interest in dating fades entirely after age 50 or so (reproductive capacity fails).

Cold way of looking at it, but true.

Steve Hiker,

As someone who's working on a PhD in sociology of the family, I know you're right!

It's expensive for me too!!
I've got three kids. Sitters aren't cheap. Stop complaining guys!! ;oP

Yes, dating sucks... my TDH knight in shining armour just knocked this humpty dumpty off the wall. All the king's horses and all the king's men can't put sunshine's heart back together again. *sniff, sniff*

I remember dating being a lot of fun, it was finding a good companion that sucked. Once that was accomplished, fun usually followed.

That's right baby (all except for the hs thing, lol).. dating doesnt suck at all.. especially when you have the best boyfriend in the world!!

A little hint for the guys.. girl's dont like playing games either and all girls arent about money. Most girls I know would much rather have a guy to just treat them like a girl should be treated!
Miss Opie

She`s been gone just a little over a year and I haven`t started dating yet. Everyone tells me to get over her, all I need to do is find one to replace her.

How do you replace a childhood sweetheart, best friend, wife of 29 years, lover and the mother of our children as if it were nothing more than changing my socks?

She was a month over 18 and I was 19 when we were married. I have lived with her longer than I did with my own family and like it`s supposed to be, she meant more to me than anything, or anyone else.

How do you trust a stranger with your heart when someone you have always known and loved so long can just walk away?

When we were in the 8th grade I told her I was going to marry her one day and she kised me. Then I told her I would love her forever.

Why do I always have to be right?

I have seen that as you go on things just get harded and harded with dateing.

I have been burned so many times its not even funny.

Its like I told someone at work "I will not have any kids or get marred unless it is to someone that is not money hungey and loves backpacking"

Where I live all girls care about is money money money!!!!!

Yeah, being single is OK for now. Its not how I want to live the rest of my life, though. :)

Focus on having fun, meeting people not on finding the love of your life. Too much pressure! You usually find what you want when you are not looking for it.
