Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

No, Im not taking a date to a concert and getting a hotel with her. She ends up with ideas in her head about a relationship and then I am put in the position of letting her down. Then she thinks Im a jerk or just like all those other guys or whatever (fill in the blank) she goes and bubbles to her friends.

Bonzai - yes
My wife's first date with me had her getting into my car and driving two hours to see a band play in the basement of a sushi bar at 1 in the morning.
It was magical. No hotel though. That's just creepy.

That sounds kick ass, honestly! I kinda wish I was able to take her actually. I know it would be a great time. Orlando is about 1:45 from here.
But unfortunately I have certain rules that I will not break when it comes to dating, and this would break some big ones.
Saw a swanky ass new nursing home when I got off an exit early last week. Looked at the jobs openings- of three, one was for what I do. Sent my resume just for fun. They have a putting green, and one job opening was for a valet parker. This job is in Nashville, BTW, so.... just for fun, but kind of curious since the job was just posted last weekend, I happened to drive by, and they happened to have an MDS opening.
A black woman in my office just said I was racist because "Shame On a N****" came on my iPhone (I use the iPhone on speaker since my company still refuses to give me a speakers, or even a sound card so I can use headphones) and I left it on. I explained that the artists were black, so she said they must be racists too.
You heard it here first, the Wu-Tang Clan....is a bunch of racists.
Oh, and if you bring a girl on a date that requires a hotel, it's a relationship.
Do not understand how to be a serial dater. Just do not know how people pull that off.
I hate dating. I would love to just skip right to the relationship part. Even though that's not possible, I still don't date. Hence why I've been single most of my life.

^ Same here. But daaaaamn...repeating all your stories to somebody new? I'd (almost) rather have a root canal!
I had some pretty lousy dates in the last year, but I'd much prefer that over the root canal. I almost rather they had just took the damn tooth out and put a fake one in its place instead of subjecting me to that torture.
And now for the "I can't believe I'm writing this sober" post...
Of course generally I also make the idiotic mistake of trying to be friends with a girl first - and then pursuing something more afterwards. It would make sense to do it that way, you already have some connection with that person and care enough about them. Zero to serious as quick as possible - how often does that actually work?? Doesn't make sense to me.
Dating would just seem easier to me if it was with someone you already knew and had some interest in. Why not see where it ends up? Friends come and go all the time - how much do you really have to lose? Except everyone makes it so damn awkward to make the jump.
Take for example... I've known some gal for a few months. Hey Liz, why can't we go out on a date? Oh, I like you. You're a nice guy. But you're just a friend, I don't see you like that. Because some other guy is better looking? Because I'm alright but imperfect? If we ain't that close, why not give it a shot? What do you really have to lose?
“We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”
That's it. I'm fairly certain that Fate/Karma/providence (whatever you want to call it) determines when the chemistry occurs. You can't predict it. You can't force it. You can't do anything but be yourself, roll the dice, and see what happens. Sometimes you win; sometimes you wish you weren't even playing the game. But you know - you just KNOW in your heart because you've seen the magic happen to other people - that eventually the odds will turn in your favor.
The trick is not to get too discouraged while you wait.
ps - enjoying corn, booze and/or chocolate as sedatives ain't a bad idea, either.
