What do you do when you start to date someone..

[Homicidalheathen]

I just be myself...thats enough as I am NOT like many people

[GothicRavenGoddess (3)]

How you guys know me, IRL? That's how I am in a relationship, for the most part. Cept my lovey-dovey affections are for that person alone. lol

I am very understanding, without letting other's walk all over me. and I try my damnest to not jump to conclusions, like Cher pointed out that some women can do. lol (it was dramatized but sadly there are women that are like that)

Friendly

Open-minded

willing to compromise (except about buttsecks!--luckily that's one thing that neither of us likes! lol)

Understanding

Good listener.

Real good at sexin him up! lol

Lots of hugs and kisses, all the time (unless its not a good time for it, like when Call of Duty 4 is being played!)

lots of back scratches and rubs (again, when its appropriate)

I LOVE to watch horribly bad movies

It doesn't hurt that we share common intersts, and when I don't know something about what he's talking about, and he askes me "do you know what that is" i don't pretend to know. I let him explain it to me. (sometimes, even if I do know, i let him explain it anyways, because I know he likes explaining things--and truth be told, I love it, too)

I don't know what else, you'd have to ask him. I just assume that everyone's like that.... but i know they aren't... It amazes me the reaction some people have, to how I am, when it comes to relationships. It shocks me that not everyone are good, nice, loving, loyal people. lol

I'm in it for the long haul.

[Burrich1]

I apparently woo them with stories of my old D&D days while drunk.

[Bernadette]

Confidence. I don't worry about all the rest.

[Slogo]

Well if we're going for uniqueness I'll pass up all the "be honest, trust them" stuff (even though i do it). But within a couple of weeks they can expect me to cook a very good meal (and i don't mean spaghetti oh's).

[jynxxxedangel]

When I am really serious about someone, I will show them my "June Cleaver" side. If he's that good, he deserves to be spoilt. Men love a woman who can cook whatever he wishes upon request, do a gentleman's laundry correctly (press and hang it, too), pick out his clothes, cut his hair, shave his face, etc. These are attributes lost to many modern women.

It's all about the domestic skills.

Underwater dating.

Lol i tend to be myself....I get a little more hyper when around someone i like, giddy really flirty and other then that.....i am me....i offer to pay instead of them worrying about it cause money is not an object when it comes to the happiness of the other person.

I try not to rush things. I like to get to know the person before doing anything extremely sexual with them.

[zenaleigh]

I don't do anything special, if you don't like me for ME

[Brenda Starrr]

I'm so awesome, why would someone not want to date me? All kidding aside, I am kind, generous, thoughtful, loving and very giving in relationships as well (as to people who give me no reason to dislike them). I like to think of myself as an all around good person.

Though I am not the most beautiful woman in the world, I don't think I'm ugly by any means, I do wish I had more of a collar bone ( I think that looks so sexy) though *sigh*.

I have both beauty and brains, I want some to simulate my brain just as well as he can my naughty bits

Yeah I'm fucking awesome.

This is ME to the letter. I have exes that wish they could still have me, because I was so incredibly good to them. However, only one man REALLY has me, my heart, and my soul. I'm going to tell you right now that he is a VERY lucky man.

And, I give him the most amazing sex to boot.

[Onyx]

I am simply and truly Me.....

That seems to be enough for my guy & my girl.....

I think that is true of anyone when we really start to be ourselves. In my life (especially when I was younger) I have wasted so much time trying to make relationships work with people who were just not compatible. There really was nothing wrong with either of us. We just didn't click.

If someone is right for you they are right no matter what. They love you all through life's ups and downs. You just naturally want to make each other happy and nothing is forced. If they are not, no amount of trying will keep their interest.

The *really* heartbreaking thing is when you find someone so compatible they can even seem to read your thoughts, you can't shake the feeling it was meant to be and they move on. (but that's another thread altogether).

[Mean Salley]

I like to gather a group of my friends and set up a mass charade for the first date. There are several steps that make it work. All of these situations will be staged in locations where I know we will be headed on a date.

1. A friend sits on the side of the road with a broken down car. I simply walk up, (pretending I don't know them) take a quick look under the hood, close it and then slam my fist down and yell "Fire it up!!!" Of course the car starts right away.

2. A friend dresses up like she's pregnant and stumbles toward her mini van screaming, "help I"m in labor!!!!" Then I run over, help her into the van and a few minutes later, I take out a small infant from a car seat in the back of the mini van hold him up and yell "It's a boy!!!!!"

3. A third friend walks past an alley and a group of ruffians, (also friends) grab her and pull her into the alley. I run over and toss them all a sound thrashing like a real tough guy and return the womans purse to her.

By this point she will have figured out that it's all a charade. But she will think back to the last chode she dated and figure this is better than watching the dolt play x-box all day and the countless unforgettable nights of drunken neandertalism that he called dates.

I'll also attempt to score points by pointing out significant geographical locations such as Burkina Faso, and United Arab Emirates on a map as well as converse by using complete sentence structure, and 3+ syllable words.

Finally, I'll leave her with a bottle of depakote for when she brushes me off for a dude who is SO intellectually engaging and creative that he laid down over 2500 dollars for some sweet tattoo work and 30 pounds of stainless steel piercings, and a few years later she goes psychotic because she can't say "no" to some wicked sleeves and now she has 6 great kids with 4 heartless, self absorbed dick-smacks and is all washed up and miserable, but still believes it was better than taking a chance with the bald guy.

me <----ftl lol

I run the opposite, I MUST have men...for women cannot live on Ramen noodles alone...

[prick]

I try to get them to open up and feel free to ask me any questions about me. I am an honest open book and I want that person to know the true me.

[TheGimp]

id have to agree with prick being open and honest is very important and get to know one another inside and out from realationships ive seen in my life freinds family and my own it seemd people closed them selves off

I love Mean Salley's stories.

[n0Mad]

Salley, that was awesome! I so would've done all that back in high school too. But now ... I just gave up on dating.

[predaking]

I've never really gave that much thought, I guess I start with the question "how would I want to be treated?" with that I can feel my way through the details. I know the love,respect, honesty, and acceptance I would want and I would give 100% of that or better. Everything else just falls into place and becomes as natural as breathing.

Were you trying to tell me something with the couple awesome meals you made??

[Guest greyhalo]

I make them pet my flying squirrels.

[n0Mad]

What happens when the flying squirrels pet the guys instead?

[Simon Bar Sinister]

I don't try to make them fit into some pre-existing mold of "the ideal girlfriend".

[Guest greyhalo]

Then he's experiencing some special squirrelly lovin'.
