Will he charm her when they meet? Will he charm her off her feet? Will he charm her with a flower? Will he charm her in the shower? Will they [asterisk] in the park? Will they [asterisk] in the dark? Will they [asterisk] in a Cobalt? Will they [asterisk] with a… oh, fuck. Nothing rhymes with “Cobalt”. ---

Are you dealing with that? Yes definitely, whenever I’m looking forward to go on a date ,I always put effort into my appearance.I have already decided on what to wear.I’ll also get my eye brows done, it’s been a while and they are losing the shape ---

Maybe someone needs to tell Marlyn that she doesn’t have to wait for notes handed out from passing vehicles to find dates. If she’s under the impression that it’s the only option, it would sure explain a lot. ---

I’m just bemused and amused, not upset. I couldn’t type that bad if I tried. It seems like it’d take _more_ work to type like that. It’s like spelling your post with Scrabble tiles then shaking the board. Or spelling it out with those kiddie alphabetic refrigerator magnets. ---

> [@Marylnshephards](#): > > LOL, he said even though I am 2 years younger than you, I bet I can teach you new things .Then he said he’s a very good pleaser 😛 OK, these are the details that would keep the thread interesting. Why are you waiting until now to share them? How did you respond? Good pleaser, huh? Tell him you’ll be the judge of that and if you don’t walk away from this experience with a memorable orgasm then he has failed and that you are going to start dating older men instead of selfserving boys. > [@Marylnshephards](#): > > He asked me if I like to be f\*\*uck\*ed almost immidiately, the first time i texted him.I guess he made his made his intentions very clear You’ve mentioned this before.

If she’s under the impression that it’s the only option, it would sure explain a lot. I didn’t wait nor do I go out actively look for dates.I always meet guys when I least expect.I have been approached several times during this time , but I was not interested.Some of them were much older and some were just not my cup of tea. I just go on about my day and if I meet someone great, if not then it will happen when it’s meant to happen. I remember one time I met a guy while I was walking in park .It turned out , he was on his way at his friends house who happen to live in the area.That was few years ago and I won’t get into why it didn’t work out ---

Now for me, I don’t really mind her grammar, but I find your obsession of it to be annoying and your comments to be rude and meaningless. So I am asking you to please refrain from it as it’s not contributing anything of value. Basically I prefer a poorly written post with content to a well written post that is just whining. Put your impressive writing skills to better use please! ---
