The Mating Game
I have started the dreaded task of dating. Dating is something that I am not super fond of. I haven’t been in a serious relationship with a man since 2005, so I am not sure how I will do in one now. Nevertheless, I do want to get married and have two more children one day, so I guess it’s time that I venture out there. The kids are ready for me to find someone as well because they keep talking about having a new baby sister or brother one day.
I decided to try Yahoo! Personals after failing miserably with Match. Match seems to be more for people that do not have children and don’t want to date anyone who has any. I am not angry because everyone has their preference, and I want to find someone who is comfortable being around children. One of my best friends found her fiancé on Yahoo!, so I took her advice and decided to give it a chance. Yahoo! seems a better fit. Thanks Dawne!
Right now there are three guys: a Scientist, a Lawyer, and a TV Producer.
Scientist – He is the only one that I have met so far. He is in his early 30’s, used to be a teacher and coach, adores his dog, and is very intelligent. I think he is great (so far). We’ll see what happens on the second date. We are supposed to go to a Greek restaurant, so I am pretty excited.
Lawyer – Meeting him for lunch tomorrow. He seems really sweet, good looking, own practice, smart, and funny. However, he is ready to get married and have children, and I worry that he will just commit to anyone. Another thing is that he is only 5’9. Being a taller than average women who loves her heels, I wonder if he will be too short for me.
TV Producer – We talk all the time, and he is the one that I like most of all. Cute, funny, English major, laid back, and cool. He is all a Producer for Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, which are two of my children and I favorite channels. However, he lives in MD (I hate MD!), and he is legally separated. I usually would run the other way, but he said that in MD they can’t get divorced until they have been legally separated for a year. It’s something I know from my older sister. However, not even a year separated and already on the playing field?
I hate dating. If someone knows how to work a crystal ball, please let me know.
