when i was 19 i lived w/ a woman who was 35 for a year and a half. and she had four kids! although they didn't live w/ us. oldest kid was only 3 years younger than me, although the MIDF was infinitely hotter... my dad's third wife was just a year older than me, and a year younger than my older sister.
Just be yourself(not that I think you would do any differently, Jeff). If you have to act out of character for someone else, then you shouldn't waste your time dating that person. You could always get drunk with him and ask him why he's never asked you out? Then you wouldn't exactly be asking him out! BTW, I just saw how absolutely stunning you are. Forget asking him and just smack him upside the head. Let me pose this question to the ladies: How do you feel about single guys with kid(s)?
amfootball -- you may find this funny. my wife laughs about this guy at college who sat next to her in class. he was like, "hey...sooo..what are you doing this weekend." she said, "not much...just studying," thinking he might ask her out. his response was, "oh..ok." she still jokes about guys at college being afraid to ask girls out. of course, we went to Baylor, so that might have something to do with it! but they do have a lovely selection there.
I joke with her all the time that the guy probably never wanted to ask her out. I don't think that was it, though!
Hmmm, and this 'guy,' did he later become a lawyer in Houston and spend half his day on a particular bbs?
no..that guy asked her out. he currently has two children with her. as an aside..i have spent WAAAYYY too much time here, lately. had some things settle and some other things in a holding pattern. kinda nice to get a bit of a "break", though. it won't last much longer.
its ok...I didnt either what I ws sure about was that amfootball didnt send manny a pic...... I just didnt know who that was...
My thoughts exactly. Half the guys I work with know the exact items I'd purchase in the Fredrick's of Hollywood catalogue (and they know there's no chance in hell they'll ever see it on me). I've never been totally shy about that kind of thing. Also, there are new developments! He's moved from a quick glance over at me, saying "hi" with his head turned away and then glancing back when walking by me... to an interrogative sentence! He asked me, from a great distance, if something in another part of the building smelled bad. Then he ran away. The poor boy is just so shy.... This is progress. I'm looking forward to possibly hearing something the length of a haiku next week!
Good grief, you are a patient woman! I'll tell ya, I'm not a particularly bold person myself when it comes to women, but I'm a helluva lot better than when I was in my 20's. I gotta say in his defense, what an icebreaker! Does something smell bad? I mean, wow. Why not just say, "Nice weather we are having." He's quite the ladies man.
