OH man, I would have chosen more than one answer, definitely. I'm searching but not searching at the same time, if that makes sense. I know from unfortunate experience that I can't make anything happen!!! So, it's like I try to be open to things, am on two Christian dating sites, but don't spend a lot of time there... I figure, if God wants me to meet someone, He's pretty good at making things happen.
Not to say it doesn't get a bit frustrating though.
Offering money for dates??!!!
That's just awful!! I hope no one's doing this... but actually... I HAVE seen it in a way... people so badly wanting someone to pay attention to them or like them that they offer to pay for absolutely anything and everything (I know a very nice guy who literally exhausted his life savings on single mom he was chasing for 2 years--she was clearly not interested, unless she needed something, especially for her kids. Of course, I'm NOT saying all single parents are like this at all!! It's just the situation he chose to stay in, unfortunately.)
And, come to think of it, I've been guilty of (needlessly) spending money on guys I was interested in as well. Every guy I ever liked didn't have money, so I never had to worry about them spending money on me!
