New to Datingish - but not new to the xanga network. Check me out
here.
So yea - I'm single. I definitely wouldn't mind a date but haven't dated anyone seriously in a year and change - almost two years - and it's been a good thing for me, for sure. I've been reflecting and learning and reflecting takes solitude. I'm looking to have situations where I can apply the lessons I've learned about myself during this time of reflection. I have absolutely no idea how this site will help. I don't believe I'm done reflecting but I just think it's time to put the lessons to use.
So a couple of months back, after a negative dating experience with this lame-o (which I might write about later) a
fellow xanga blogger suggested I make a list of the things I want in a man. He suggested this because 1- I would probably be surprised at what resulted and 2 - I might find that the guys from my past hardly came close and 3 - it would be a helpful way to focus on what I want when I go out in the dating scene. And he was right on all counts. I'll make the list my next post.
It's not that I will use this as a checklist of sorts - I don't exactly expect a man to fit every single quality (especially considering that the list is slightly repetitive!) but it definitely sets some good guidelines. I had no idea that I wanted so much in a man... yet I don't think it's unrealistic either.
