The Dating Game

Ladies: if a guy was interested in you, what would you want him to say to you (Pick up line)???

Here's the perfect pick-up line: How you doin'....I got a nice piece of chocolate cake and some gummy bears for you (the good kind....Hariobo).

This is my favorite pickup line: "Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?? Cause you look look like an angel!" Works everytime

NOT a good pickup line:

Him: License and registration, please?
Me: For what?
Him: The broom in your back seat

(Bought it to sweep my garage )

Where were those flying monkeys when I needed them?

Just because we have differences in opinions does not mean you have to mean about it.

You act like a 87 year old grandpa. Yell at people cause they don't share your same opinions. Ugly I love you, but the way you say things makes me frustrated.

Interesting how defensive you got when i was making a generalized statement, not attacking you.
And, as far as opinions go, i've yet to meet a respectable woman who liked pickup lines, or thought they were effective. My opinion mirrors that of the many women i've heard from. I'm sorry you are unable to tolerate my pointing out this fact without making it all about you, as opposed to me stating what I think.

Also, if i am such a burden to you, feel free to go to the ignore button and add me.

Well, maybe the men are from Texas? We've already established that there is a shortage of single women in Houston, so that could be it.

That and bugs bunny looks like a blue babs bunny when he's in drag. It's very disorienting.

Now that can't be true. There are waaaaaay more single Christian women in the Dallas area than single Christian men. Maybe the dudes from Houston should take a road trip.

Every time I see this thread title, I think that it's going to be about people trying to be "CC matchmakers". I forget every time until I click inside and am relieved to see that it's not.

I'm not sure what this thread Was about, but i have a feeling it is far far removed from its original intent.

I don't know if what I would do would fall under 3 days, but I would spend as much time with them as possible, learning their likes and dislikes, asking questions to not only understand but to start conversations. I see the 3 days happening on the weekend, our time together would include attending church and any other activities that would promote theological discussions. Museums, art shows, and theatre productions would also be involved to generate deep discussions.

I saw this as showing someone that I was interested in how I cared. I'm not sure now if that was your intent.

Ladies - how far would you be willing to travel for a great guy?

this is loaded.. cause I was always told by christian mentors that a lady never goes to the guy (not at first..and later it should be both of them)
and I know this is true.. most men are lazy by nature (remember the garden) and I think if we do too much for them they never learn to step up..
I think I figured this out after my ex and I broke up.. at first he came to see me in my area but once we established that we were a couple, I visited his place every weekend.. I think had my made him work for it more, that it would have been better for him...though I thought I was doing right.. I don't think I was now that I look back

so.. if I am on a dating site (though right now I am sword off them) and a man tells me I am too far for him ( which I get) or if he doesn't want to come to me when he's close enough (my ex figured out how far I was to my home and my work before we ever really dated ) then I won't even consider him...

and btw, the phone is also a good place to start..

The farthest I've ever driven to meet a woman I was interested in so far is about 8 hours. That was after messaging, IMing, eMailing, calling, and texting for a while. She had friends who were married and offered for me to stay in their spare bedroom. We spent most of our time with her married friends, and a few times out by ourselves going to church, walking around, going to coffee houses, out to eat, movies, etc. I went over to visit her every two weeks, the weekends when her daughters were at their father's. After several months, she ended it because she felt obligated to spend all of the time I was there with me, even though I was fine in entertaining myself. She wished that I lived closer so that we could see each other more spread out over the weeks.

I understood and was just thankful that I got the chance to get to know her, and realized that she was just one more step closer to the one God has intended for me. That experience also taught me some things and I'm sure will help me be better prepared for future relationships. If anything, it expanded my willingness to travel even further for a relationship. I have felt led to keep my responsibilities and ties loose, to allow me the ability to move wherever she might be, once a relationship reaches that point.
