I Love Dating!
I like dating. The best kinds of dates are the ones where you and the other person find a connection through your activity. I often dislike going to movies (unless we Netflix one, but that in my opinion is more of a hangout than a date) and whereas I am a traditional man who likes to suit up and wine and dine a woman, I try to go for other things like late night bowling or going to random bars or coffee shops and people watching, or even picnics.
Even if there isn't any romantic connection, it can be quite fun to meet new people, and that is something I definitely don't regret. And even if something goes wrong on a date, I can somehow make it turn around into a funny moment that you will end up laughing about by the end of the night.One of the best ideas I had for a date was going to a hookah bar, and just chilling. Another one was going to a place that was a huge arcade/laser tag/go kart/bumper car arena. Both women thoroughly enjoyed themselves, seeing as one was the laid back type, and the other was a nerdy type, respectively.
People consider dating today as "stressful," but usually those people are just lazy and selfish...think about it, someone is interested in you so much, that they set aside a time to be with you, and made plans that they hope you enjoy. I would consider that an honor, because time is such a precious thing.
And for those who flake out on dates, I think they are doing to the other person a great disrespect, because the are essentially showing that they are too important to spend time and thought that someone else is spending, to honor them with at least a simple rejection.But for the most part, despite the cynical things I say, I enjoy dating women, from planning, to the kiss goodnight.
Don't you love dating?

No, not really. I think dating contradicts what it sets out to achieve... like when Bruce Lee named his style "Jeet kune do"... the style without a style. Naming it ruined the whole point because people started studying it as a style. That is, dating attempts to formalize the most informal thing a human being can do (next to using the bathroom).
Yeah... to me, dating is the equivalent of signing a hall pass so a student can take a piss. It's like, just fucking do what you have to do. It's nobody's business.

The officiality of dating exists only for the convenience of the next person... and the whole point of dating is seeking to put an end to "the next person" by getting it right in as few attempts as possible.
I'm pro-love... anti-dating.
i date mostly so i can have funny stories to tell people later. i am very, very rarely impressed enough with a girl to want to see her for longer than a few weeks. so yes, i have a shit ton of fun doing what i do.
would i say i love dating though? hmm...i probably like it, but not love it. gotta do something to get laid, right?
I love dating my guy. I feel like a movie superstar because he often tells me that I'm the highlight of his day or that he was thinking of me
or the mere thought of me made him smile
dating lots of people may seem enjoyable, but underneath it all, they really don't give a shizz about you and see you as a disposable sex toy. to each their own. if they enjoy lots of flavors, have at it. I prefer one and he does, too. whatever works for them. dating, not dating, marrying, divorcing, swinging, eating, etc. so many things to enjoy in life to choose from!:D
I never been on a date.
I haven't gone out on a date with other people in quite some time since I am married. I do hear about my friends' dates, and the ones who are looking for someone to date seriously (and eventually marry), are sick of the games and other nonsense involved with dating. Some people date for fun, others are looking for something else.
@TheNotoriousGOD@xanga - Nah, dating gives me headaches. I bet I could smell this guy's game from a mile away and steer clear of getting used. :)
I'm glad I have someone who is sticking around for years so I don't have to put up with douche bags who just want to have a good time but manipulate girls into thinking they want more. Guys like you take the fun out of dating.
@TheNotoriousGOD@xanga - You're a bit of a hypocrite complaining about women who want a prince that treats her how she wants to be treated, you wonder why they should deserve such treatment. I've always thought the same about you. Why do you deserve a top notch woman? Ya basically treat other women like shit in the process because they're not "good enough" for you. And what makes YOU good enough for a top notch woman?
I'm not a fan because of the general amount of posturing/lying involved in [especially first] dates. I rarely will bother to date someone I haven't been friends with for at least several months, just to avoid having to sift through the fakery to try and get to the substance, while still somehow following that first-date formulae of "please, no substance". Not very interesting. Do I sound jaded? =P
I'd also disagree with your generalization that some people who characterize dating as "stressful" are "lazy or selfish". I think many people who characterize dating as "stressful" are often those referring to their personal discomfort with being disingenuous and/or are expecting to meet an insincere person following the same set of prescribed pretenses.
But in the end, I think we can all agree that Xanga allowing people to post comments anonymously was a terrible, terrible idea.
Always enjoyed a good date!
Ahahahahaha! Congrats on your blog landing on datingish, Slacker.
@Endrath@xanga - yeah, you do sound kind of jaded haha no offense! i don't like it when my dates lack substance and i make a point to have deep conversations. not saying you have to spill your inner most secrets, but i have talked about politics, educations, private prisons and such on dates and its turned out fine, even if we're disagreeing.
you sound like a fun person, hope your find your match if you don't already have one - i have the same dating philosophy as you. you get to know someone on a date, and if the feelings aren't there, then you've had a good time with someone who may turn out to be a good friend (if not, then sayonara forever), everyone goes home happy.
Out of respect for you and your spells I must make this testimony know
to all. I've been to other spell casters and psychic readers before, but
in my opinion you are the best. I just wished I came to you earlier,
but hey I got the best for last and that is Dr Stanley. My ex was gone
for a year and I went everywhere and other spell casters for help but no
result until my friend introduce me to Dr Stanley. After that Love
Spell and Break Up Spell was done I finally gotten calls from him out of
no where within one week. Him and the other lady broke up and we are
going on a vacation together just the 2 of us in a week... Thanks and I
love you for helping me. To everyone who is looking for a real spell
caster contact drstanleyspelltemple@gmail.com he will help you..........James Faith
