i only consider a date if more than 10 bucks are spent between the two, i have never spent more than 8 bucks on a woman, and then that was purely for a tube (subway) ticket....what ever happened to just chilling at my place with some weed and a hookah pipe?

4) How long on average does it take, after first meeting someone (casually, thru work, school, whatever), for you to say to yourself "I want to spend time alone with this guy/girl"??...

Can be months and months, depends.. I have a few stories, but its 9.30am and I have a car picking me up in nan hour, so I gotta get ready.. but when I come back this eveening I will add to this

I was talking about this earlier today, and decided to ask these same questions here...I sincerely, genuinely do not go out on dates...not the stereotypical ones, anyway, where you ask or are asked by someone you don't really know but might find physically attractive anyway. So I'm curious about a few things...and wondered everyone's thoughts/opinion/feelings about them:

1) What is it that makes you decide to go out on a date with someone??...Is physical attraction enough??...True, immediate connection??...Boredom?? Sex??

2) When the date ends, do you usually already know that there's not gonna be another one? And if so, do you tell the poor guy or girl this right then and there, or do you wait until they call you again?

3) Have you ever gone out with anyone, and had them tell you that they weren't interested in a "date #2" with you? If so, how did you take it? Did you want another date with someone who didn't want one with you?

4) How long on average does it take, after first meeting someone (casually, thru work, school, whatever), for you to say to yourself "I want to spend time alone with this guy/girl"??...

5) How good are you at picking good dates??...Do you end up finding out that a lot of your dates are far more boring/immature/ditzy/rude/etc. than you imagined them to be??...Or do they end up pretty much being exactly how you thought they'd be, with no surprises??

6) Do you go on dates for the purposes of hopefully starting something that will lead to a relationship??...Or do you go on dates for the experience only, and without any thought of a second date, nonetheless a possible relationship down the road??

7) Yeah, I'm nosey..lol

1. It's all about Physical atrraction for me at the start.
2. I wait until we have more conversation first, first dates can be really nerve rackin.
3.Nope there's always been at least a second date in my case.
4. With the average lady about a week, the above average ones right at that moment,LOL!!
5. No surprises so far, I've gotten what I expected from every lady I've dated.
6. It depends on the lady, some make me think of a future with them and some make me think of a night with them.
7. LOL!!!!

Do you get that feeling of a future with them from the first date??

Byron said:

It's Happen twice and both times I ended up in relationships with both ladies, the chemisrty I had with both of them was electric.

Abdul said:

So...you've had pretty good experiences dating...you're rare..lol

Byron said:

Pretty good so far Byron, hopefully I can continue to have such luck, LOL!!

Abdul said:

You need to write a book...and then sell it to Lleena.

I already answered these questions hours ago! Give me new material!

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

Question #5 is new... ..lol

Byron said:

#5 Is a tough one as I really don't date.... The other night was more a fluke... that said... hmmm.. My last two dates lead to relationships.


Now I think it will happen on its own...I suspect it will just hit me ...suck me in and I will know this is where I am to be...

I had a great dinner by the way and gained a trainer out of it!

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

Do you find yourself having a different mindset since you have children??... (just curious )

Byron said:

Excellent question... My children are blessed to have a phenomenal fully involved father so unlike many single mothers I do not seek this...I do seek moral character but not more then I would also seek either way....

I don't date I mate.....

No really in all seriousness I have not been on a date in the longest time...yeah I am a dork...or else I am to picky....I think its just that I am a dork.

Byron said:

Byron said:

Mostbeautifulgrlntheworld said:

Byron said:
