I tend to date the analog way
and finding a good balance is still difficult. Most surprising has been the occurrence of busy career women who jusf want a fwb.

Helm...I have a woman at wrk..a bit older than I. Her schedule is horrendous...
She is all about the FWB...she only misses sex out of a relationship...and is very clear about it.

I live at a very nice Marina in San Diego. The single men love the life style
There are only four single women among a few thousand boats. My point is
women love security, are more domesticated than men. Women find their
happiness in social situations, a home, family. I don't know if this a basic need
or conditioned. Society is changing and so are our choices.

When I'm not dating /in a relationship I'm fine on my own. I have a job working 10-14 hour days,friends, and two eleven year old twins...lol.
I'm currently in a relationship with a man that treats me well, and helps versus causing me more work. He, so far, has been very good about my time constraints.

GREAT Questions Valuable info Maybe a poll would have been better for this data(?) I got confused because of all the questions, so I would have to say: yes, I had a date last night and we planned to go before the restaurant closed at 8 pm. Yes we were too late. Needless to say, it was Plan B; always keep your options open in last minute dates. Have fun on your next date OP.

I am definitely not just a booty call girl. I would find that distasteful and frankly, depressing. It also feel like there is continual decline in morality and that sex means nothing. Very sad. Finding the right person and the balance of together time is key.
I think the biggest hurdle is getting through the beginning stages of dating and into the relationship stage. Once there, you develop a cadence. You can be under the same roof but still curl up and read a book if I'm outside with the horses. Then maybe we'll go do something together.

I think most people don't quite face the truth nor are willing to share it honestly.
-Those that claim they don't FWB- do (they just convince themselves its not that)
- Those that say they have a bunch of dates and full in boxes--tend not to
- Those who claim to have a steady-a permanent- but don't live near them, no one has moved....not so sure that qualifies
- Those who claim they want no one- have simply convinced themselves of that (the old I wouldn't want a Porsche (Supermodel) if you gave it to me troupe).
They are not evil, they are not liars, they are just human and likely could use some healing...
"Beware Vehemence"...I always say.

Rocket...here?
It is all about the sex. And I don't know how many times I hv heard or seen the words...sex is very important..it is a huge part of a relationship...I am dating to.find someone sexually compatible.
Which led me to think..many are sexually driven...and I see that as a flag. Many are sleeping with dates...flag. And many are giving importance to.something I won't hv the time for on the level they demand it..
Yeah..not worth the effort to meet much less date..for either party.

Barry I was thinking about your post. Reminded me of the story of the fox and the grapes. "Probably sour anyway". I still say that "sour grapes". Maybe people do say things or avoid things as a self protection. I know I'm guilty of it. Makes it easier to cope.

Things I have learned on DateHookup:
* If you start dating before or immediately after breaking up with someone, you are a "serial dater", and that's BAD.
* If you take a little time off between dates, you're "FAKING it", and that's BAD.

Yep 
I think the only thing that 9 out of 10 DateHookup People agree on is that the Right Way to do it is to say "People suck so I don't date!", accidentally bump into your "Soul Mate" in the line at the grocery store, marry him/her before the cashier rings up the total, and Live Happily Ever After.

I want romantic love. I want to feel that connection with another. It's been hard for me, because it seems as if the man I meet haven't been able to let go of the past.
We all have been hurt. I refuse to let my past control my present. And, I refuse to allow another's past control my future. Get past the pain and learn to love again.

While we are on the subject
One of the biggest problems I have found since I started dating again is that women near my age with grown kids who c*ck block. They have grown so used to having their mom around and mom has been such a big part of their lives even as adults that she can't date.
By that I mean these women are so involved and have been that their kids lives are their lives. Between babysitting their grandchildren or running their kids everywhere they don't realize how deep they r in til they try to date.

Gree that is a big thing here also...............they have grown "kids" living at home...with THEIR kids.............and wonder why men are a lil gun shy about getting into all of that............
I just look at them and say......."Are you serious ? Your house is full of mayhem and drama, kids everywhere......your phone blows up on the minute with some bs or another. Hell, it drives me nuts. "
"Instead of becoming your own human .........you are hanging onto the identity of "MOM"...."

My kids are grown and gone. I have a standing date with my granddaughter every Tuesday. This I don't break for anyone or anything. But, I rarely get asked to help other than that unless it's an emergency. My kids are very independent and responsible.
Sometimes, I wonder if I did it wrong!!! I miss being needed. (Sometimes
Usually on Wednesdays I'm so tired, I wonder how I ever kept up with four kids!!!

my ex wife had 3 kids and I took them on willingly.
I don't have any Of my own so I wanted to be a father to them.
it's not a matter of a woman having kids, it's them being able to get out of there kids lives to be able to date.
