So I'm recently single. Split with my fiance I'd been with for 6 years. I'm not really broken up about it, I saw it coming, and it was actually kind of a relief. At first I thought about keeping us togethor then was like, wtf am I thinking, so I just let it happen.

That said. Gorramit, bein single is a lot of work. And expensive!

I have been going out pretty much every night, or every other night since I became single.

That is farking expensive!! Like I can't get in and out of a place for less than $30.

On the good side I've met a ton of super cool people and got invited to parties. (I didn't get home saturday morning until 6 am, wtf)

I met a cool ass chick friday night and talked to her for about 2 hours, then screwed up and didn't get her number. But went out last night, saw her again, and got it then. Its a good thing I'm good lookin because I have 0 game... And wtf is game anyway? I was playing pool a few nights ago with a buddy and some girl came over and talked to him, apparently about me. She asked about me and he said "yeah he's cool, he's got a bit of game" so she responded, "oh, well I'm gonna make him work for it!"

Which, I did, and it worked out for me. But wtf?! I don't wanna work for it. Why don't girls just come up to you and say, Hey, you're cute and drive an awesome car, lets bang. This dating shiat is for the birds!

Any one else got any rants about the solo life?
 
Nightclubs and clubs aren't the best place to meet women, or at least meet women you want to date and get involved with. Coffeeshops aren't bad, as well as parks, the street. But it sounds like you don't want anything serious.

I'm recently single, not looking though. For the moment career is my mistress. That said, New York is cool. Lots of good looking actresses, and lots of neurotic girls. I dig it. :)
 
Yeah I agree. I have 0 luck at night clubs. I found this bar right near my house however I Just stumbled into by myself. Ended up meeting some cool dudes.

I'm realizing that meeting guys is the best way to meet girls. When a girl shows up and they know they have no change with them, they can introduce me. Or I can ask "hey is she with that dude she's flirting with" and they respond "Hell no, he could never get with her"

Jax florida doesn't have the hotties that NYC has, but we have some cuties.

And yeah, I'm anti-serious right now. Its time to be a bit of a dog I think.

You know what I suck at? Getting numbers. Seriously, I'm crap at it. As I said, its a damn good thing I'm good lookin, because my "get your number line" is just that.

"So whats up, gimme ur number"

No lie... It worked tho /shrug
 
Have you called it yet? Hahaha, not to rain on your parade but females like to be "nice" and give numbers which then could turn out to be fakes, and that in-the-end is not very nice. So I have heard..... he he
 
Seriously... Go meet girls where you know they'll last. Nightclubs and stuff are superficial, you don't really meet the REAL girls there. :)

I met a girl in NMU (Norwegian organization for keeping the traditional language), and she loves filmmaking, languages, photography and so on and so on. The only problem is that she doesn't want a guy, and she is almost 18. Damn, my life stinks at the moment, but hey, we are great friends.
 
Well no I haven't called it yet. I really doubt its a fake though. She hangs out where I do, and is friends with my friends so she'd look pretty crummy if she did that.

Its more likely she'd just never go out with me if she was gonna be prickish about it.

I have no parade to rain on :)

I have no desire to meet girls that will last right now :) After a 6 year relationship I want shallow and superficial, for sure.

I agree with that

If looking for anything other than some nook; stay out of the meat market
 
lol it's like swingers, you'd better way at least 3 days before you call.

Being single I guess could be expensive if you go to places that require cover charges or whatever, but I think being involved in a relationships is even more expensive, especially when you're first starting to date... I mean, any cost you'd have on the date, is doubled... assuming you're a chivalrous kinda guy.
 
I'll buy that relationships are expensive... Hell man, I'm still paying for half of my ex fiance's lexus. BIG mistake there.

Meat markets and nook are my playground at the moment. I think I'll wait a few years before trying to settle down again. I've learned my lesson for now.

About waiting 3 days to call, no problems there. I'm going to portland tuesday till saturday so I won't be here anyway.

Just remember "safety" first when playing with others on the playground:

Because it is in my gorram name.... We co bought the car. I make about 5x what she does and I worked my ass off to get my credit in good shape.

So paying some of it is better than paying none, having her default, and then I can't buy a house or another vehicle ever...

Um, sell it. And I don't mean tomorrow, I mean YESTERDAY. You do NOT want an ex-ANYTHING driving around a car that you're putting money into or have your name involved in. Call her and tell her she can buy it from you, and not in payments, with a cashier's check like normal people do. If she hesitates, sell it out from under her. A Lexus is far too expensive to just throw up your hands about, like there's nothing you can do about it. If she ain't paying for it, and you ain't married, it AIN'T her car. It's your car. Sell it yesterday.

Oh I know you're right man. The problem is this, I called capital one, and all their cosigns are cobuys. That means both our names are on the title. I can't just sell it out from under her.

Our arrangement is this. She bought furniture, about 4 grand worth. But it wont fit in her new apt. So she keeps the car for 6 months, and pays half the car note. I pay the rest. After 6 months I give her my second car, a toyota tercel. (My primary car is a corvette). I get the lexus back and I'm trading both the lex and the vette in for a porsche. But I need my january bonus to do it.

In turn, I get to keep the furniture. So I'm hoping it'll all work out.

Kinda between a rock and a hard place...

With confidence like that, why are you single?

To hell with relationships.
