1. Anything you do is ok, as long as you never use the smilie with the tongue sticking out.

Are you a religious gal? If so your prayers have just been answered.

6. Well...
you could come to DC and stand in my general vicinity. I can't stop getting hit on and it seems to be a contagion effect. Other people get hit on mercilessly around me too; people who never get any attention at all.

My ish is this: The 40 year old women don't want me once they've got me because I ain't done being 23 yet; the 23 year old women don't yet accept that I can simultaneously seek potential commitment and have fun acting like I'm still 23. Growing-up is for suckers and I'm not done finding myself yet.

9. I'm sure this is meant as a joke
but straight answer: if you're thinking of it as "hitting on", you're doing it wrong.

10. That is a great comment.
Very observant. I think relationships form from friendships.


But to try and help him by answering that question.

If you feel the age topic is an issue with her.

Tell her you don't date women younger then you, but she is so much more mature then most people you meet, you find her really intriguing. Best said after a conversation on some topic. Then don't 'hit on her' but have some fun on some date somewhere after saying that.

Although it would be best if it was true :D

:shrug:

There is comedy gold in posting this :rofl:

12. Find someone who is participating in an interest of yours. Then get to know them
over that interest as a friend. Then you'll know their history and if they could be interested.

#4: Date any woman you fancy, objective: having fun.
