John from Riverside Posted July 28, 2017 Author Posted July 28, 2017 I'm guessing she's a dude!!! Didnt sign like one on the phone....but....who knows?
John from Riverside Posted July 28, 2017 Author Posted July 28, 2017 That's the best approach. Don't panic. Wait for her to contact you, John. Last thing you want is to appear desperate or needy, and scare away a beautiful baby. Just chillax, man. yeah I feel like I called one too many times as it is....i mean...she asked me to because of her schedule but still Im going on radio silence and see if her radio silence ends. Im not desparate.....had to talk myself into this as it is

Maury Ballstein Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Whose next ? Time to get a new one on the hook.
LeviF Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 No that was gonna happen last night after she got off work (in surgery all day so who knows when that was) Oh well.....if it happens it happens.....not gonna fret Yeah if you've called already don't call again. If she's feeling up to it then great, she'll call and apologize. If not, oh well there are plenty more where that came from. You'll get out there, man.
Kirby Jackson Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) I'm glad that I hedged my bets with a $10 "will John get cat-fished" bet at +1000. Just kidding and sorry about this situation John. You really seem like a good dude and that's all that matters. Everything happens for a reason and if she isn't your next date it's probably for the best. Hopefully this will just be the starting point to having the confidence to get back in the game. Edited July 28, 2017 by Kirby Jackson
Augie Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Whether this goes off or not, the first step has been taken and that's making the decision to be open to getting back out there. Things will happen as they are meant to.
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Most important piece of advice left out. If you feel like you are heading into the friend zone, run like hell. Run? Just make a freaking move! Who the hell runs! It's your own fault if you end up in the Friend Zone. It's imaginary due to the lack of inaction and the fear of rejection.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 I've been happily married for 8 years (well every couple has problems), but in my single days the "passive approach" always worked best for me. I definitely put myself out there, but never tried to hard to "connect" with females. I have heard several times from female friends that there are few things more unappealing to them than a man who "tries too hard." I wasn't implying that you are desperate, hemet. Just trying to steer you in the right direction. If she calls...great! If she doesn't then it's time to move on. Plenty of women out there, and you sound like a pretty good guy. Chin up...
Fan in San Diego Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Single women in their late 40s are long past the stage of needing a guy who makes a lot of money. She has her own money so your bank account is far down on her list of priorities, so don't sweat who earns more or has a fancier job title. Your job on a first date is to get to know the person enough to judge if you want a second date. That's it. Don't get wrapped up in 'could this be long term' or 'will I get laid' This ... I'm 55 and just got back into the dating game. Woman our ages are very independent, are OK with being independent and usually are very critical in their checkoff list of qualities they are looking for. I find it very frustrating actually. Super selective and picky woman are the norm out there.
boyst Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Haha. Women over 40 beat my door down for only one thing. You old men can't satisfy them. Went over to a 53 (I thunk?) Yr old woman's house with a 27 yr old friend a few weeks ago. That was fun

Notice that gut one gets in the 30s & into the 40s, that's the age when men's testosterone plummets. But, if you recognize it, you can stay thin or get thin with a better diet. Anyway, and rightly so older women get more free spirited. It's either the final rut for some or they just don't have the risk factor (unwanted pregnancy/commitment) anymore.

Buffalo_Gal Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Radio silence since last night I think she got cold feet..... If she is a surgeon, things come up, and she may not have had the opportunity to connect. It may still happen. The nice thing about dating in your 40s is you know who you are, you know your drama/BS quota (IMO it should be none, but you may feel differently), everything isn't all about looks (non-troll is fine, but nice + smart + caring is a whoooole lot better), and you can take turns picking up the tab. I had a lot better time dating in my 40s (after divorce) than I did in my teens or 20s.... but then again I married the first (and only) man I dated after my divorce (and 10+ years later, I am still supremely glad I did). Good luck with the new chapter in your life. I hope you enjoy yourself.
