Jay...you dont even know me to say such a thing my friend. If you ever met me you would see I am really a very happy person thesedays, although I was not a year ago I'll admit because I had blinders on and thought I needed someone in my life to make me happy and that is just not true at all, I have been happier since I stopped chasing after happiness. There is no despair in my life thesedays. I personally think YOU are the unhappy one.

Daisy...I have nothing at all against you, but you do get very defensive at the guys on this board and I was saying if you get that way to all the guys you meet you are going to stay single, and that reminds me way to much of my sisters, that is when I get defensive as well. Ok, maybe I had no buisness comming into this thread because you asked for Oklahomans ideas, all I asked you was a couple questions and you started in on me, so did Kellekokid, but I expect you two to come to each others rescue.

Karrie...Thank you very much for the kind words, you are truly a class act in my book and a real sweetheart at that. I could definately sit down with Daisy would gladly buy the woman a drink, but I really dont think she would do that. I argue with her as I argue with my own friends, I speak my mind and I'd rather be disliked for that than not speaking my mind and letting people walk all over me. I'll do the group hug now and move on ((((group))))

Actually, mariner, I rarely "get defensive" toward the guys on this board. The only thing I can think of would be our disagreement over a guy coming to my home on the first date. But if you must make blanket statements, then by all means, go ahead.

In fact, I think it was me who decided to change my post earlier and not be rude...unlike you who attacked my attitude. I even chose to hold back retort on that as well. In addition, I have continued to read and not respond to your comments thinking that at some point you would be a big enough man to do the same. However, you continue to prattle on for whatever reason you think is necessary.

And to comment about the "couple of questions" you asked, you were merely being ugly in reference to a discussion that was being had a few days ago which had absolutely nothing to do with this conversation to begin with. Inviting a man to my house on a first date in NO WAY equates to meeting singles in a bar.

And finally, I don't know why you have made the following comments: "I know you really dont care to listen to what I have to say Daisy" and "I could definately sit down with Daisy would gladly buy the woman a drink, but I really dont think she would do that", considering you don't know me. In fact, if I recall, I've come to your defense numerous times in the past and have warned you about potential inflammatory posts you've made. You're so focused on a disagreement we had last week that you can't see the full picture.

If you want to continue making generalizations then do it, however leave my name out of it.

Karried, most of the nice guys I know wouldn't say the things he did in this thread.

Of course it wasn't a dig at you! I was just refering to your comment about guys at bars...

To be honest, I don't have any real advice, because I know I got lucky with who I'm with now (Even though I did meet her at a church, we haven't gone to that one in a long time). Maybe you already know someone who you'd like to go out with, but don't quite realise it yet. I didn't know I wanted to be with who I'm with until we hung out one on one. Then it just happened. We've been going out for about a month and a half now and hopefully it will last a while like I think it will. I guess you just have to keep you eyes open and you never know, someone will pop up.

And on another note,

"After you have gotten another shrubbery, you must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest with.....A HERRING!!!!"

Ni!

My girlfriend bought me the super collectors edition with the film cell and script a couple of weeks ago. The greatest movie ever made period.

I couldn't help but to think that as I was typing that response watching that emotiocon thingy.....

Now you all MUST say what movie it is! Can't be quoting it in my bitchy rant thread and not say what what you're talking about!

"Month Python and the Holy Grail"

Mercy, can I sympathize!
But for you, I've seen your photo so I'm certain attention is coming your way and you're just failing to recognize it. Remember that a new guy's initial approach is going to be VERY low-key if your not in a bar alone. We're a lot more cautious these days and prefer to test the waters very subtly.

If he initiates ANY conversation, that's a hit.
If he wants to talk for more than 15 seconds, that's a hit.
If he gets behind you at a checkout counter with a shorter line elsewhere, that's a hit.
If he sends an unexpected PM or email, that's a hit.
If he doesn't know you and says hi in passing, that's a hit; find a way to cross paths again within a few minutes with a smile.

But we fellas don't wait very long for some positive feeback before moving on. Remember, very few of us guys are persistant at all....'til we see the right smile, then look out.

yeah, I tried making "goo goo" eyes with a guy at the grocery store not long ago. We exchanged glances and smiles...I "followed" him around a bit. Then, I noticed the ring...UGH! ACK! (Cough, cough!) He must've just been amused by my produce selection process.

Darn ring.. seems to have "claimed" a lot of the good ones! But, he's out there... at least that's what I keep telling myself... hopless romantic, I guess... with emphasis on the hopeless part.. haha!!!

Produce selection process??? It wasn't erotic was it? Don't answer that, just leave it to my imagination. LOL

Of most of the people I know who are married now usually they met their significant other in college, church, work, or they were a friend of a friend (basically met each other at a mutual friend's get together).

I often wonder where I go to find the "good" single girls myself but so far I haven't had any luck but I haven't necessarily tried some places suggested to me such as book stores or coffee shops.

Myself I just decided until I figure out where I'm going to end up working for awhile (still commuting half a week to Stillwater from OKC) I'm not really going to bother with it as much for the time being.

But anyways, saw these emoticons and had to add them!

"Be vewwy vewwy quiet...I'm huntin' wabbits!"

Oh my.... Someone's got to cure you of this disease known as "Never seen The Grail"....ASAP and right away at that!!!

Ni!
