Re: Are we too nice or just naive? While the impression you get is possibly true.. At this point, going to dinner or anything else to simply meet is a mute point, you already have it set in your mind they arent for you..
In our normal course of things, I get the email, read the profiles, and bring my wife up to speed.. Because of her schedule, getting on the PC to chat isnt something she can do.. and getting free time with out kiddies floating around is a bitch, so simply talking on the phone can be like mobilizing the 7th fleet.
If because of these pre conceived notions, it puts some people off, there is nothing we can do about this.. we state plainly those we are looking for and those we aren't.. And we state plainly to anyone we "talk" to, that since we have other obligations, that this is our recreation.. not our pasttime..
Would we love to be independantly wealthy with nothing more to worry about but who we are playing with this weekend? Sure who wouldnt..
There is a simple idea that we have lived by/played by .. We swing at the speed of LIFE .. meaning when the rest of our world slows enough to allow it, we do.. when its whirling at 90mph with 16 different things going on.. its on the way back burner.. |
