Being a single I have done a lot of dating in my life but I have not been lucky enough to find one of those romantic guys you hear about now and then...where the heck are they? Being as it is so near valentines day I can't help but wonder.

I've always kind of prescribed to the "ton of bricks" theory of love.

Go out and do lots of things that you love. Be as good a person as you can be. Meet lots of people in a variety of places. Be happy individually.

And - WHAM BANG - love will crush you like a ton of bricks.

Then figure out if it will really work.

:) IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING :)

Is this romantic?
When I proposed to my wife, I hired a horse and carriage - the driver dressed in the proper livery attire - to pick her up at work and drive us the 3 miles to our church where we were attending a wednesday meeting. Prior to picking her up, I put up a series of large signs along our path telling the world how I felt about her. The last sign said "Now, you can call your Mom."

It is safe to say she was shocked to find me at her office, dressed in a suit, holding a dozen yellow roses, standing next to a horse and carriage complete with a picnic basket full of cheese, crackers, grapes, wine and other assorted goodies.

So... you're seeking R-O-M-A-N-C-E, are you?

When was the last time you ignored your eyes, and listened to your heart when you met someone new?

When was the last time you let go of your preconceptions, and opened your mind to the possibility that IT would find a soulmate?

We all have, in our mind's eye, a picture of who our ideal mate might be, and we spend our lives looking for someone to fit the mold. Inevitably, we are disappointed, and heartbroken, that someone so "perfect" could deign to fit into their OWN mold, and ignore our hopes and dreams.

Ever so it has been, ever so shall it be.

So, what say we just go back to MY place?
