Hobson's choice (aka the Devil's bargain)

Congrats Joe!!

But the true question you should be asking yourself is ........ how does she feel about monster cables

Cheers and have a great weekend
Michael

Thank you. I am taking Friday off to be with her again before her trip, and it is showing signs of becoming a serious, long-term relationship.

That's great! I'd like to think that the ritual abuse you endured in the other thread gave you the motivation to create a successful relationship. At least I'd like to think so.

You are welcome to think so, if it makes you happy.

It was awesome while it lasted, but it is over now (her ex came crawling back!)
I am bouncing back, though. Now that I have discovered internet dating, my prospects have expanded considerably. First date with another lady tomorrow.

Maybe the mods should sticky this thread, so we can all keep up to date on your love life. Wow, rather abrupt shift in circumstances, eh Joe? Glad you're not letting it keep you down. Have fun while you can, before you get married like me and become another happy zombie. I love my wife dearly, don't get me wrong, but as a man a part of me will always cherish the "chase".

i must have missed the part in between "being stood up" and "the new girlfriend"

Boy, You and I both

Did you also miss the part between "the new girlfriend" and "being stood up again"? LOL.
Neither of this weekend's get-acquainted meetings went well.
I am about ready to give the whole thing up. I used to be happy alone, so maybe I can be again.

neither? you had two?

i thought this last one was going great?

Hi Joe, Don't give up so fast; it's a process.
So, what part do you think went wrong, the computer matching, or the women lied on their questionnaire?

So did I, until she decided to go back to her ex!

One decided our scedules were incompatible, and I tend to agree (evening person vs. morning person, always on the go vs. mostly stay at home, constantly on the phone vs difficult to get ahold of, etc.)

The other was physically unattractive to me, and I suspect that she lied about her age.
