IM Chat With an Ex Lover

Posted on March 16th, 2010 | 25 comments

I logged into Yahoo IM the other day and noticed an ex-lover online. Yeah, I still had her in my friend list. She must have had me in her IM friend list, too, because she promptly sent me an instant message.
God I’m horny! What are you doing right now? she wrote.

I had very fond memories [...]

Needing Attachment BEFORE the First Date

Posted on February 17th, 2010 | 36 comments

A woman and I recently started emailing through Craigslist personals on a Monday night. On her suggestion, we took the conversation to Yahoo IM.

I just finished reading the first several chapters of Lori Gottlieb’s book – Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough. I followed that up with some browsing in the single mom blogosphere.

When a single dad is in between relationships and craving intimacy, there’s one quick fix – go on a date, flirt and raise the heat, and maybe you’ll end up in bed. Not the best way to start a long term relationship, but one-night-stands serve their purpose.  Spooning skin to skin is a very good [...]

Used to be the holidays were the worst time of year for a single dad like me to date. Women seemed to cut off their search for the perfect man just before Thanksgiving, only to resume it after the New Year – just in time for Valentine’s Day romance and chocolates.
I surmised they did this [...]
