    Re: Dating is miserable

    small update for those scoring at home. i don't see that girl at work as much as i used to now that i have a different position, but i do see her a couple times a week and chat when i can. she laid out some hints today, like saying she is single and needs somebody to go adventuring with. i asked her about doing something together sometime and her response was "ya, i can give you my number!" just not really sure when we'd actually get to do any sort of adventuring as we both work nights and don't have the same days off. not that we can't hang out, but just won't really get to go anyplace most nights as it'll be too late. the next couple weeks will be a bit weird with christmas and new years, but i'll definitely try to make something happen soon.

    Dating truly is miserable.

    Counting my blessings this holiday season that I have an amazing wife to share it with.

    Merry Christmas bachelor bros.
    Maybe I'll start dating a mistress.

    Going with the freshman chick to see The Hateful Eight on NYD and then get ice cream after. I'm already starting to regret it. Her immaturity is jumping off the screen when we text.

    Ah well....Hope it goes best it can. I'm making good progress with this one chick who I'm on the verge of dating. Thing is-I like her but am having trouble getting over another chick who I fell hard for but that did not work out.....

    I'm very hesitant to make any moves at all. Kiss, arm around her, ect. ect.

    Just feels like a stage 5 clinger.


    I say continue to let it play out. Don't rush, but also don't remain stagnant lamenting over the previous girl.

    You know what they say, the best way to get over someone is to get under someone.

    Stage 5 clingers are usually bad life decisions...that said, usually incredible sex.

    Also, dont put the pussy on a pedestal.

    For me, im working on a cute girl I work with but really only want to have sex with her to check another country off the list. Shes hot but maybe too innocent and not sure if I want to dip the pen in company ink. Did it once before and it was a disaster.

    Really glad I pulled the trigger on the 18 year old chick. I totally underestimated her maturity based off our text convos. We went and saw the Hateful Eight this afternoon and got cold stone after. It was her first Tarantino movie and we both really enjoyed it. She is gonna binge on whatever Netflix has from him now this week. She was really cool, down to earth, good sense of humor, intelligent, and TALL. She text me like an hour after the date and said she had a great time and wanted to see me again. I'm not complaining.

    It's kind of a bummer because I plan on graduating in May and moving to Colorado by June. She knows this too, so it isn't like it is a surprise. We'll see where it goes. I'm not sure what it is going to bring, but I do enjoy spending time with her.

    it does suck knowing that there is likely a termination date, but who knows whats going to happen. the 3 month crazies could come out and end it long before you move. and she's only 18 and a freshman in college. she's going to be experiencing a lot in the next 4 years. relationships that early in college rarely last long term.

    enjoy whatever time you do have together. if she really is that good, and things work out until you move, keep in touch. she'll still have a lot of growing to do in the coming years. maybe things will work out and you'll find your way back together some day.

    i moved to aurora about a year and a half ago. you won't be disappointed, as long as you can afford it. rent is a bitch.

    figure out where you're going to be working and then move close to that area. you don't want to move to the wrong side of the city. rush hour is a pain in the ass.

    if you have any questions about denver, PM me.

    Pretty much spot on. Essentially I'm just happy I pulled the trigger and got to meet her. She's pretty cool and wants to take me out for pizza since I paid for everything our last time out. I'm gonna take her up on it and have some fun. Haven't even kissed yet, taking things at a snails pace purposefully.

    My biggest concern is making her fall for me and then having to deal with the fallout. Kinda feel like I'm playing with fire, but she seems like she gets the big picture.
