It's Personal...

Alrighty,
So my LTR dissolved with a whimper earlier this year and sometime sooner rather than later I'm going to get back in the dating game. Having not been there in a decade and being somewhat less flush with cash than I was a few months ago, I'm after ideas for decent, cheap dates. Any suggestions?

Does your city have an arboretum? That is one of the places I took bitches when I dated. Bitches love trees.
Keep tabs on local fairs and events. Crafty stuff tends to work the best, as well as food-related festivals. Everyone loves food.
And make sure to not get emotionally attached when you are dating. Most people are shitty.

In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

Anything involving seeing stuff for free.
Down here, Downtown hosts the Art Walk, where various art galleries and so on are open at night for folks to walk through and circulate and so on.
Count's right--Bitches love trees. Find out parks. Google your own city to see what attractions it has, little out-of-the-way things you might not know about.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

I also recommend star gazing. Stars are fucking cool.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I'm not starting dating for the sex, but for the emotional attachment.
So more starting a relationship, than dating per se, but dates happen anyway

I wouldn't even call it a risk, but rather a certainty. All relationships are fucking transient, full stop. Even if everything goes right your bff or wife or you or your kid will totes die. That's sad and stuff but unless you're really myopically fucktarded or have clinical brain problems it is still totally worth it the vast majority of the time.
Ohhh, sorry, I thought you were myopically advocating being hesitant to ever love anyone rather than saying get to know people before you start planning your life around them. I'm totally on board with that. Dates are a good means of slowly getting to know someone.Count Arioch the 28th wrote:I am just saying that starting a relationship without dating is like hiring without a job interview. It might end up working out, but you're taking a needless risk.

See, My trouble is getting to the speaking to people in general point, as well as segueing the discussion into sex....

I still can't tell if the the existence of these women makes him want to vomit until he dies, or if the women in question would prefer if he vomited to death.

The last time I got to know someone through the internet it turned out she was actually not a she, but some sort of unidentifiable, sexless mass of carbon. Or at least, that's what he/she/it looked like...

I think he means that you can invite the person into your house too, and get to know them in our house, instead of out on the town.Shrapnel wrote:Call me old fashioned, but I prefer to know someone by talking to them and interacting with them in person, not through the Holonet.Orion wrote:How is dating a requirement for getting to know someone?

Or we're just dealing with different definitions of dating. Apparently there is a generation which defines "a man and woman go see a movie and have dinner" as a date, regardless of romantic interest on either or both parts. By which definition, I've gone on a few dates since my last relationship. By my generation's definition, however, they sure as fuck did not feel like dates, more social flailing performed in the hope of attaining physical affection.

I want to choke one of my coworkers.
We've had two employees go recently--one retired, one got fired--so This One Guy is pulling trash.
I'm a janitor, by the way.
This dude is the fastest and best worker in the world as long as someone's with him.
If he's alone, he slows down, makes phonecalls on cubicle phones and other shit.
Every.
Time.
I'm a very amiable person. I really am.
But the boss declared no one can leave until This One Guy's done. And we're not allowed to help him.
And this makes me want to commit physical violence on This One Guy. And the boss, too, while I'm on the assault spree
I'm going to try to talk to him tomorrow--me and him get along fine personally, but seriously. I like getting through and getting the hell out of Dodge on Friday nights. And if This One Guy's gonna be the bottleneck, I'll at least attempt to fix it
