sitaangel | Thoughts: To date or not to date, Part 1

When it comes to whether I should jump back into the dating scene or not – I’ve been so damn indecisive. I can’t make up my mind. At the rate it is taking me to decide, I may never date again.

I am tired of being alone. It would be so nice to have a man. Someone to call my own; someone to call me his. And all that crap. But..

Do I really want to deal with all the stuff that comes with trying to date?? Having to meet someone and get to know them and try to figure out if they like you or not and then deciding if they are worth dating or not.. Good lord. That can be exhausting.

And let’s not forget – I really don’t know if I can trust my judgment. The last three guys I’ve dated ended up flipping out on me after we broke up. One was an ass while we were dating. Another one was a needy fucker that made me feel like I could never do anything right. The third.. He was nice (until we broke up), but my feelings never grew for him. What can ya do? So, if I do start dating again, I’ll be constantly wondering if this guy or that guy will turn out to be an asshole in the end like the last three.

How do I find a guy that really is a decent guy? One that won’t flip out on me should the relationship happen to end. Are there any guys out there who are really who they say they are? I haven’t met very many guys who don’t lie about themselves. That’s sad.

What is a girl to do?

(And the rest of this entry will have to wait until I get my thoughts straight, hah.)

I am right there on that same journey as you lol im on the edge, looking at the dating scene, deciding when to dive back in and start all over again. It's like eyeing up a pool of water and deciding what temp it's gonna be and how to enter it - dive, jump or gently step into it?

My track record of guy and girls is terrible, seriously i've dated every type of loser, but its okay because you learn the signs to look out for next time, so you're repeating history. Im going an entry tomorrow on lessons i have learnt and not to repeat again. Lol. There's a lot :/

My track record hasn't been the greatest either. It's true that you learn the signs and what to look out for, but my problem is I tend to find the guys that don't exhibit those signs and the still end up being horrible. :/

YES!!!! this is what happens to me, some fresh new hell to learn from. They just seem infinite in their numbers.

I had a lot of fun whilst dating. Mind you, the majority of the blokes were fruitcakes! Just do it - life is too short to think about the pro's and cons. Most men have baggage anyway so, as long as you go with an open mind, then you will be ok. Oh Lordy, some of them were so strange lol

You just need to kiss a lot of frogs before you meet your prince

I've already kissed a ton of frogs. I'm tired of kissing frogs, lol.

Maybe I need to approach dating in a more casual way. Just focus on having fun and meeting new people and not worry about if the guy is someone I'll end up with in a relationship. I don't know.

I had failures. I eventually met my husband, but at that point I was starting to wonder what I was going to end up having to settle for... luckily, I managed to run into him.

I'm glad you didn't have to settle for anything less than you deserved! :)

I won't ever settle for anything less than I think I deserve. I'd rather be single than settling.

How about looking for friends? That way you get to see them without them putting on the front cause really, you never know.. and sometimes by the time you do, youre invested.

That's a good idea and something I'll likely do.
