~~I'm divorced 4 years and wondering if there are men out there who like to 'old fashioned DATE'.~~
~~I have 2 girls 18 or older who don't live with me but live nearby. I work, sleep, work out, read, meet with friends, like to go to movies, and to dinners, lunches or any other kind of going out. I like plays and concerts and I'd love to find someone else who likes to go out and do things some times. I like staying home and renting videos etc but if that's ALL you want to do...let me save us both some time now.~~
~~I'm smart funny and fun....or so I've been told. I have a strong relationship with my children, my family of origin and with God. I am not looking for a hook up. I am not looking for a hook up. lol get it?~~
~~Oh yeah... I am NOT shy but old fashioned...I may look at your profile and I may wish we could make contact but I do NOT make first contact... as in I was raised 'good girls do not chase boys' and it's still ingrained in me.~~
~~one more thing..The world has changed since I dated in the ""cough cough"" 70's and I'm really lost on a few dating skills and etiquettes...so.... I asked a male co worker last night this question " how do I let a potential date know that I am not an easy hook up or on the other side not pushing for some sudden commitment?" His answer?>>>" Put food in your refrigerator" LOL O M G how funny is that? Except... :( I still don't know the answer to my question...---maybe you could be the one to explain it to me over dinner and a nice walk along the river front.

For a first date I'd suggest coffee or a lunch or dinner in a casual setting. I'd hope that time would be spent to see if we are even interested. I'd hope that either of us would be comfortable saying at the end of a first date whether we were interested at exploring further. I'd like no strings as of a first date...just meet to get to know each other.
