i spend quality time with gerry everyday. even if it's something as small as sitting outside having a smoke and talking about anything for 5 or 10 minutes. it's important to take these little minutes here and there to both of us.
now i'm feeling all sappy and missing him.

If you are single...when is the last time you had a quality date?
If you are with someone.....when is the last time you spent quality time together?
Ok I still fall into Category B, although I've strenuously tried to keep myself from being categorized. Based on my unique perspective, I'm not even sure a "quality date" is possible: Look goddamn it, I live with an 11, 9, and 3 year old! I suppose Saturday night was pretty nice.
Nieghbors were giving a party. I arrived after driving 9 hours round trip to a funeral, had a few margaritas, and related the day's activities to Delilah who seemed interested in what I had to say (an extremely rare occurance). This lasted a couple of hours. I even suggested she might spend the night with me (again, an extremely rare occurance).
When this didn't happen, I though the date went quite well.
My last quality date, was about a month ago. We met at a waterfall, then hiked an emerald canyon, through an ice-cold stream to another hidden waterfall. Then we had a fabulous dinner with the best beer in the world followed by a walk on the beach, a bottle of wine...skinny dipping, then a hot tub and sleeping in a log cabin on the river. We kept having to cool off in the river for it was a hot, hot, hot, day.
Too bad everyone can't find a marriage as happy as yours.
he's my love machine maybe once or twice every two weeks. we just don't have time for sex anymore like we used to. either he's too tired or i am. LOL! we enjoy eachother's company.
i do have a happy marriage but it isn't a perfect one by any means. when we fight, we fight and it isn't a pretty sight. especially that we're both french. 8O
gerry has finally grown up in the last few years. now ask me if i was happily married about 5 or 6 years ago? i'd say no i wasn't. it wasn't until he stopped drinking that our marriage got better and stronger.

I think if most couples would stick it out through the bumpy parts....they would find as they mature and mellow....they can be best friends and still lovers in a whole different way.
This isn't true in all circumstances....but it's probably true for most of them.
My relationship is actually doing pretty well, acceptance is the key I guess that and a few weekend rendaveous with a hot man and I am good to go :wink:
Honestly the last time I was on a great date was last weekend.... But it was with my girlfriends. We danced, drank, laughed and trashed talked men all night... NOW THAT"S love the best relationships I have are with my girls

I agree with that. I think most couples give up too soon. If I would've given up, I would've been a divorced woman and probably would've hated myself for giving up on my marriage to begin with. I would see that he's changed and wished that I would've stuck it out with him and grew up together instead of apart.
The love we have for eachother now goes much deeper then it did a few years ago and it just keeps getting deeper as time goes on.
I think that perhaps it's a 50-50 chance that it will work out if you stick it out through the bumpy times. i think it depends also on how much both people want it to work. lucky for me, he wanted it to work as much as i did.

Last quality date...I'm going to go ahead and say....last october? Yeah that sounds about right. Then I caught the girl making out with another guy at the same club I was at. So, no more relationships for a bit. I'm all about the random hookups at the clubs now. Yeah I'll grow out of it, but right now being single rocks.
So it's after 4am, I just got home from the bar and am pretty pumped. I know I'm all about the random bar hookups, cause they are fun and there is no comittment, but I met the most amazing girl at the Voodoo tonight. Saw her dancing with her friends, so I go up and ask if she wants to dance with me (instead of going up and just dancing like I normally do). She agrees, we get to talking and it turns out she's actually smart and has a personality. 99% of the girls I hook up with are hot, but dumb - like ditzy. To top it off she is smokin hot to boot. There was lots of making out and such, SHE bought ME 4 drinks (I bought her the first one) and we hit it off really good.
The thing that fascinates me the most about her though, is that she DIDN'T go home with me. Now normally if they don't come home with me (or I go there) I'm disappointed and somwhat bitter. Not with her though. Props to her!
This girl is grade A girlfriend material and is so much like me it's rediculous! I love it. Anyways, calling her tomorrow and I'm going out with her for "girls" night out. Works for me. Get to put on a good impression with the friends. Now should I wear the Versace or the Calvin Klien shirt?
Anyways, I'm pumped right now. I think I actually like her! Well, off to bed to have good dreams. 2nd day of partying and I am exhausted (I got home at 7am yesterday and got no sleep cause the movers came) Need to pass out. Peace all.
I hope as time goes by....lots of dating girls will read that post. The truth is....most guys really ARE more attracted to a girl who keeps her cookies in the box.
I would never want to date anyone that gives it out (20 minutes is the record 8O ) 4 hours after I meet them. If they're that easy to get, where else have they been?
Atleast wait til the second/third date if you want to keep me
As for my date - not a "date" per se, I was kinda drunk when I posted - it's about a guy I met when going out with my work mates. He's the friend of a collegue of mine and we kinda settled a date last time we met. I came accompanied by some girl friends of mine, he came with some of his friends, it was funny.
Anyway, he's a cool guy, except for the fact that he has the same name as my ex, LOL. At least I'm sure not to get the name wrong, :roll: .
