jimmytavino 16 #51 May 19, 2009 no loss here... except maybe for HIM.... you both showed initial interest, in one another and you were straightforward and Up Front about how and where you spend your free time... ( doing what makes you happy ) and His reply,,, "even I ONLY golf one day a week.... (snob reply) he's divorced for a reason,,, and it's just a guess here,, but I'd say that an attorney is more likely to be impacted by last minute "work related emergencies" and "sudden changes of plans",,,,, than most other professionals or skilled tradesmen... When the date is broken or feelings are hurt due to such last minute rescheduling, it is always the case where the 'rescheduler' dictates the situation, and THEN plays like THEY are the victim here..... that sort shit could get tiring Fast... IMHO The text message was Nasty and somewhat insightful... A person who accuses another of Lying is often one, who is prone to such behaviors themselves. Interpreting your words, as a lie to "get out of dating me" is rather crass AND presumptuous comment on his part...wouldn't you agree??? As soon as they wanna know, "why would you jump from a perfectly good airplane"? ( a phrase that i Hate hearing and hate answering) walk ,,, no RUN !!! the other direction... is it good to have a S O who is NOT entrentched in our sport???? Sure... and that blending of the skydiving world and your real life world CAN be a good one and CAN work,, AND it does result in a better balance than say a SO who is also overenamored with the sport...hundreds or thousands of jumps are FINE.... but it's also good to have a full and "normal " life , when Not at the DZ... "I'll call you in a few weeks "to see if you're still into this skydiving thing"...' say WHAT???!!! ..... he does NOT get it... so who CARES if he's HOT and good looking......... your post shows that you know exactly what you're doing and have good instincts, traits that will carry you well, on a DZ and OFF.. my $.02 skydive safely, skydive often, skydive with friends jimmy o[:-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrwrong 0 #53 May 19, 2009 Quote I woke up this morning to these texts: 12:12am - You awake? 12:21am - Sleeping? If you wake up and wanna chat give me a call. 12:33am - Do you always play hard to get? 1:11am - I'm going to sleep. Call me in the morning if you can find time to squeeze me in. 2:00am - I can't sleep if you want to talk. OK, that shit made my decision even easier. NO DICE. LOL....

Icon134 0 #55 May 19, 2009 Quote The guy probably thinks golf is extreme!She wants a man not a mouse. Hey golf is dangerous... just ask my brother (who broke his leg doing it...) not only that... getting stuck out in the middle of a golf course when a sudden storm blows in is dangerous too!!! Standing out in the middle of the field with a bunch of lightening rods is extreme in my book... btw: I can't/don't play golf... Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Everything is going quite nicely. I'm having a ton of fun and enjoying everything about it. Well, except all of the money I'm spending... but I look at it this way. I have no heirs. And I've never seen an armored car following a hearse. Have you?? Thanks for the advice. PS - I sent HLD a text about an hour ago that said "I got your texts this morning. I sleep between the hours of 9pm - 6am. I'm flattered by your interest but getting together isn't going to pan out. Take care and enjoy your summer!" I didn't know what else to say... Always be kinder than you feel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnMitchell 14 #60 May 19, 2009 Quote Just got a reply that said "Your loss." That's it. Oh well.... Impatient little git, isn't he? I was never a hot young lawyer, so I was always a little less . . . intense about it all. Wonder if foreplay would have been that fast?I can understand you wanting to keep the DZ as a refuge. Realize that the longer you jump, the more the sport is going to be an integral part of you. Get used to your whuffo friends finding out about your other life and coming to the DZ. I've ended up taking a few of them on tandems. And remember, no matter what jokes they make about it, they are actually excited about the whole thing. My slogan? "Skydiving-It's Nothing to Be Ashamed Of."Have you heard of the 3 stages of a whuffo dating a skydiver? Guys probably hear it the most. -Wow, you skydive!-Wow, you skydive all the time.-It's me or skydiving!Giving that guy the benefit of the doubt, he may just really have the hots for you. If a second chance comes around, consider it. Just make him realize he may not be the most important thing in the world to you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 35 #63 May 19, 2009 Quote +1 and I for one thought the 1st text was childish and rude. I think it's rude to text anyone that late at night unless it is a close friend whom you know stays up late. Even then, if the first "you awake?" isn't answered, one should get the hint that the person probably isn't awake or doesn't want to chat! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigra 0 #68 May 19, 2009 Hey, I'm all for giving people the benefit of the doubt and all, but this guy? He called her a liar in his first text, then texts her what 3, 4 times in the middle of the night? Then says "Your loss" when she tells him flat out she's not interested.

The funny part was I was talking to one of my girlfriends this morning with the "guess who I ran into" story and she reminded me that he is on his way to being appointed to the bench and the boobie pics of me probably wouldn't have been too appreciated if it had ever turned into a serious relationship.
