Is There Anybody Out There?

Hello?  Is anyone dating anymore?
I’ve got 5 more months left on my year off from dating.  I’m glad I did this and I’m learning a lot.  Besides I’m getting so much done!  Recording an album, getting my house ready to sell, going on trips, looking for a new job.  Yep all major stuff.  So I […]

What is a Date?

Hello! My dating sabbatical is going great. It’s quite liberating.
Recently I met a woman I’d love to get to know better. The question is, how do I do this and maintain my dating hiatus? Is it possible? Do I tell her of my dating sabbatical? Do I be honest […]

Dating Sabbatical

After a lot of prayer and thought I decided I’m taking a dating sabbatical.  I already feel a liberation, an awakening.
It all started when I started going back to church.  Then after another execrable experience with online dating I took it as a sign.  Then other signs emerged.  California came calling.  Then my music came […]

Off “Crack Cocaine Dating”

Lately I’ve been in a great place.  I haven’t had any dates and honestly I’ve been too busy with my house, church, work, traveling and music to think about women and/or dating.
Today my match.com subscription expired.  It feels wonderful!  I’ve decided that I am not going to use any online dating sites from now on.  […]

A Woman In Uniform

There are some people who look down on Craigslist (CL). The results I’ve had with CL clearly blow Match away. Yesterday I posted a classified. Within 24 hours I had 3 responses and I just got back from a date that I got from the ad. But this post is not about CL vs. Match. […]

Don’t Rush Me

Last night I went over to South African woman’s place. It was our first time alone since reconnecting a few weeks ago.
As we watched Eddie Izzard on the TV I was not getting a “come closer” vibe.
After we turned off Eddie’s history comedy we went outside, sat down and talked. I reached in […]

Second Chances

3 years ago I met an intriguing woman from the Friendster website.  I remember our first date.  I picked her up and we had drinks at the W close to where she lived.  It was the 4th of July.  At the bar we got to know each other.  Afterwards we went back to her place.  […]

Thursday I met Real Estate Woman at Hand in Hand. It took a few minutes to find her but admittedly I did not do a walk through. She called me and asked where I was as I was sitting by the front door waiting for her to come in.
She sat at the bar […]

Match Etiquette

I’ve been on Match.com for a while now. I’ve secured two dates thus far. However I’ve written a lot more than two women.
I am asking for some feedback from you ladies. If a woman doesn’t respond to an e-mail, what does that mean? Is she not interested? Is she testing […]

The Queen Tweener

One of my best friends has this term called a “tweener.”  Let me explain.  A tweener is the same thing as “2 faced” in Seinfeld, a woman who looks good in certain light and almost ghastly in another.  There is also what he calls a “picture tweener.”  A picture tweener is a woman who has […]
