Re:Another Saturday night alone......naturally. Sman: Take up a hobby..thats what everbody here suggested for me to do and don't stew over where your next date will come from. Trust me I have done that and it doesn't do anygood. So, I go shopping...$1 dollar store and save my money. No...Really I have just taken up photography and learning how to frame pictures and assorted other things that would look cool in a frame and hang them on my wall. Got a rare $2 bill the other day and spent today framing it, it looks cool.
Hang in there.
Re:Another Saturday night alone......naturally. LostTeacher: part of it is also taking care of yourself. shopping for good food, working out to a video or joining a gym. i am doing the gym thing, and even though i can't really afford it, i am putting it on my credit card, and saying "to hell with it!" i need to put myself first. but i understand the loneliness. is there friends or family that you can hang with? my parents live nearby, so sometimes i just go there, even it's to watch tv by myself while they do other things. just nice to have another body in the room. also, i am starting to volunteer. nothing too big, but a supervise a pre-teen dance here, bartend a social there. it's actually a lot of fun!
Re:Another Saturday night alone......naturally. paul76: Thanks for the tips guys. I have decided to do a couple of things actually.
No sitting around wonder why I cant get a date for starters.
Next I joined a gym today and going to get buff again.
I am registered to take a cooking class in a few weeks. After my omelette incident this weekend, I have decided that I really need some help in that area.
Plus, now I have some great new advice about dating...Thanks Michael!!!!!!!
Re:Another Saturday night alone......naturally. julymale: whoa!, remember when she was breathin' down your neck 24/7 about some lightweight crap that you did? remember all the crap that you took for not telling her 24/7 that she was the center of the universe (dang, she got self-esteem issues that was just beyond you to help her with- something about not being the favorite child of her parents and some other stuff like that- told you she got issues) so, enjoy this time. this is time to think, reflect and hammer in the lessons learned from that fiasco. it ain't loneliness, it's solitude (like monk solitude- see now why they're so at peace?) if you have a 24-hour gym near you, i hope it's the one you signed up with, cuz i signed up with one on valentines day nite and whoa! that where all the hotties are at! ;) -just lookin' just lookin'
