Dating - why must it be so hard...

You sound very boring, that's probably why. What makes you stand out from other people?

Oooh I dunno. I'm not that bloody boring..!! :D Been know to have moments of intriguing someone.. I'm just a normal guy I guess. Like the same as most, but I do like trying new things...

If someone says to me, lets try this, I'll have a go... I'm not overly sporty, I like motorsports, and yeah thats perhaps dull, but dining out, cinema, walks down by canals, or adventuring the great outdoors, to silly stuff like theme parks or even indoor skiing that I tried last year, and nearly broke my legs..!!! haha

Regular bowler, erm yeah I'm in the local bowling team, erm not much chance of picking up woman from this though, but when i go bowling as a date, I DO let them win, without making it obvious..!!

Honestly, I'm not boring, I will do anything - as long as its legal. :D I cook really well, love cooking good food, movies, play guitar, and I'm not too bad at times... Was in a band till my job took over... Hmm..

Lists

Holidays
Walking /hiking
Cinema, Music
Play instruments
Computers, Games
Bowling
Motorsports

If I'm game, I'll give it a go.... Dunno, I do not sit at home all day, waiting for something to happen, I do go out. I'm considering a singles holiday this year... Could be good for a laugh... Its just that I tend to do all this on my own, and in the evenings going to a pub or something means I end up round a mates house on the sofa watching a DVD as their gf or whatever wants them home..!! Sucks I guess.. New friends needed???

And, even though it might not have come across, I'm witty at times, and got a good sense of humour... Now, all of you, keep your oh yeah..!! comments held back.. :D Honestly, I do laugh and smile, do not let that crummy picture fool you all...!!!

Hahah!

Well why not - maybe I could invite knip out on one of my boozy nights on the town :) Despite being pseudo-taken at the moment (on-off-thing which has become more on than off lately, though he's moving out to the States next month), the roving eye is still wide open!

I've been on a dating site or two for just over a year, have made loads of great friends (one or two who I would now call best friends) from them, have enjoyed a couple of bouts of naughtiness, and am meeting one chap for a second meal out tomorrow night - we're just friendly so far and it's not been called a 'date', but we amuse each other and he's very good company.

Of the men I am currently in contact with, the real potential lies in one or two completely unconnected to dating sites. BUT, that doesn't mean the sites haven't been useful. The last year has been extremely instructive in helping me to work out what I really do and don't want, my confidence has grown, and the whiffs of desperation I was showing have all but ebbed away...

...I'm pleased to say that although I sometimes feel lonely and miss waking up next to someone, I've FINALLY laid back, I'm not pushing anything, I'm just meeting people, being friendly, flirting mildly, and just seeing what happens :)

Good times, people!
 
Nice pair of cheekies!

I dunno if i can be bother with relationships now after how my last one ended. It sucked really bad and its taking me ages to get over what happened. Mind you im 28 in a new town and don't have that many friends here apart from mates at work and they arent exactly party animals! :(

So so so true! Why?

Covet what you can't/shouldn't have? The old wives tale "all the good ones are taken"? Girls feel less threatened by a guy who is taken so can be more open? Sheer devilry? Status issue as Angillion suggested?

Take your pick, any or none of the above could be true. People aren't usually all that easy to simplify down.
 
my parents met when they were 34 and 35, met (on a blind date) in june, got married in december, and i was born in april - i'm 22 this year, and they're still happily married :)

i've been with my better half for 2 years, and would love to be 'off the shelf' for good and asap!
it's weird to think that at the same age as me, my mum had another 12 years before she met the man she wanted to marry
i don't have that much dating advice - all i can say is, it'll find you when you stop looking - and everything worth having, is worth waiting for :)

Point is, ive got no one to go out with really, cos my mates are all settled down.

I was in a similar situation at the end of last year, and is sucks when all yer mates just want a "quiet night in" all the time... :( Even now with the whole long distance relationship thing I have isn't exactly ideal, but I still manage to drag a few people out for a pint or three on the weekend... :)

I guess it's worth giving the online thing a shot (even tho I've yet to try it myself...), but also just try out some random evening activities... Sport clubs, evening classes, dancing, poker, etc. It's a good way of meeting people, and it's often easier to chat to someone at a place like this compared to, say, a supermarket or pub...
