  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

When was it? If it's been a while since your last date, why?
Click to expand...
When: several years ago. Why: a combination of not meeting interesting women + focusing on my career + focusing on my hobbies + moving + coming to terms with certain life events. Although I was open to dating the right kind of women if I bumped into them, I did not go out of my way to look for dates.

So what does the girl suppose to do when that happens? I was observing the flirting above. Is that what you are suppose to do?

I'm probably the wrong person to ask b/c I'm a chronic flirt. But, yes - you flirt with the person and give them little cues/signals that you are interested.

My last date, was a breakfast date, in Oct. It was the 1st time meeting the guy and we had alot of fun!!

I would've continued to see him, but we lost contact. He informed me his divorce wasn't final yet and that scared me away a bit (he was married for 17 years)....so I'm sure he has a bit of 'healing' to do.

But, I'm very open to dating.....IF I met a guy around my area. No more on-line dating for me....so I'll just wait and be patient, until God has me 'cross paths' with someone.

I guess it depends on what constitutes a date.

Beena few months out here in Illinios. The girl was cool, didn't work out though.

When i go back to Detroit I'll go out with girls I used to date, but it's nothing fancy.

None of the Detroit girls are worthy of settling down with? If not, why keep dating them?

this metal head chick that i never want to be around with again. actually i can't call her a metal head. she liked these abstract hardcore/metal bands. i ran into her at the gas station, and she looked at me, look away and i saw it and smiled.

we met through a mutual friend, my buddy's either wife/soon to be ex or whatever.

too quiet of a girl for me. i want a woman who can talk. and i thought i'd be ok with the whole crazy 80's hair thing she had, but honestly? no. i want more class, more style. i either case, i want someone who can talk.

this was last summer. it was during a brief period of me being single last year. ex and i had this long breakup, so i went out on a couple of dates. haven't been back on one yet, because the relationship finally, after nearly a year plus of desiciding if it should continue about 3 plus months ago. i'm ready for the dating game now. got a possible one, but it hasn't come through yet. making it a whole event with friends. make it easier i suppose on her, which is cool.

So anyway... I've decided to start dating again. My plan is simple. Each year, I will go on the same number of first dates as my chronological age. 33 when I'm 33, 34 when I'm 34 etc. Everybody I've talked to IRL seems to think it's a good idea. Worst comes to worst, I'll have some interesting stories to share. What say you?

So you'll be averaging about 2-3 dates per month. That seems like a reasonable plan. If you don't meet your quota each month, do you add it to next month's numbers?

Certain months will probably be more active than others. If all else fails, I'll do speed dating whenever I get behind.

That's what I meant by "it depends what you mean by date".

For the most part, I'm not planning on settling down with someone who lives 300 miles away from me but I do like to see them when I'm in town.

If by date you mean courting or potential marriage, then no, this isn't that. I don't even bust out my best moves.
