Has anyone ever done speed dating or went on a blind date? I would like to hear some stories. Or how do single cruises work? Is there too much anticipation with being around many singles or is it fun/relaxed?
There have been two speed dating sessions that I have been on. One was on a New Yeras Eve cruise. Another was just this past February. I struck out both times. One the singles cruises,most people were relaxed,as they were singles cruise veterans having fun.
The first three singles cruises for me were "no dice",or no luck.Other men were being picked,but not me. One lady,in our group,said to me,"The reason you are not being picked,;is because You.......are....not.....trash!"
I did not ask her what she meant by that. Sometimes,when I talk to a woman,no matter what the subject is,I just freeze up.
Now this
last singles's cruise,last November,I had three or four women intrerested in me. I theorize that I was successful with these women for the following reasons. I was well dressed,with two tuxedos,one for each formal night. We chatted on-line for four months
before the sailing date.We posted things on Facebook since February,that being 9 months
before the sailing date. I did not do that on my first three singles' cruises. On the first sailng night,at our first get together social cocktail party,a few women approached me and told me that they just loved my
positive posts on Facebook. I did promised four women that I would give them a
free massage.
But I forgot to write down their names!
Last,but certainly not lease I was very nice to them,while
not mentioning my two exes. Although one lady,while I was giving her a massage,told me,"I can't see how anyone would want to divorce you" After I told her that I divorced her. D.... told me,"Well......you deserve better!"
So for me,the last Singles'Cruises have worked quite well. No one could ever tell me those four dreaded words,"I.... don't......
know......
you!!!!." Because, every 100 days before the cruise began,I would post a count down. When there was,let's 90 days to go till the cruise,I would post on Facebook," T (for time) minus 90 days.......and counting!" A few women posted that they just loved my count down,and that they were looking forward to it,as I would post a count down every 10 days.
