It's my first time posting here, so hello everyone!
I've been seeing a guy for about a month now. I've never been married, he's divorced. I'm not an active dater, he is. He is doing online dating. I really like this guy and it is annoying the hell out of me that he is out on dates all the time. Slight jealousy? Definitely!
He really got me on Sunday when he told me to call him when I got home after Easter dinner, because he mentioned we could plan on him coming over. I called and left him a message that I would be home around 6:30. He didn't call me back until 9:30 and said he was 5 minutes from home. Ok...I'm thinking a slight blow off for another date. So, I ask if he would want to get together during the week. He hesitated a little bit and said he didn't want to make a commitment. What is that? I told him I wasn't asking for a commitment, that it was just an idea since we weren't able to get together. He told me to call him Wednesday to see if we could plan something.
I'm not calling him Wednesday, because I would feel like I'm setting myself up for disappointment. Maybe during the week is for his online dating girls...I don't know.
We only talk on the weekends, so I'll talk to him Saturday or Sunday, but I'm kind of feeling like I don't want to call him this weekend. I really like this guy, but if it's not mutual, why keep myself around him? I don't know if I should stick this out for a little while longer.

Oh, I just about spewed my coffee..."not exactly pro-relationships or marriage"???? That's the understatement of the year!!!
But I thought of him too when I read PG's post. However it would be nice to have someone on the air who didn't hate women so much!

LOL! hehehehe. << Oh, I just about spewed my coffee..."not exactly pro-relationships or marriage"???? That's the understatement of the year!!! >>
Perhaps I was being a bit TOO PC! LOL

Yah, it would be nice. Only ... it's the controversy that keeps people listening ... the shock factor ... like Stern ... so, that keeps the advertisers buying because the ratings are high ... because people tune in just to hear what he's gonna say next. Personally, though I don't agree with all of it (or much of it) ... I'm always entertained and laugh my ass off when I do listen to his show. (and I have an open mind and realize that, much like Howard, he's a personality ... it's his shtick ... it keeps people tuning in).
One thing I have to say about Tom is that ... he can debate with the best of 'em ... I wouldn't want to try to win an argument with him, that's for sure ... because there is NO changing his mind.
Hi Starbuck!
PG knows that Tom Leykis used to air on a couple of different Maine AM radio stations.
Unfortunately, his show was never promoted properly. .
I know that there's a station in Portland that airs Dr. Joy Browne at night...but it's a delayed broadcast. So the phone callers and their questions have already been recorded.
While Tom's views (on his radio show) are definitely his own...I'd like to open up "pandora's box" a little more???
As you and many ivillagers (who read these boards) already know, there's a lot of 'speculative guesses' when it comes to how men and women actually think....and what they REALLY WANT FROM EACH OTHER?
I think this is the reason I'd enjoy doing a radio show? Input provided from my listeners might be able to "unbury a few of the myths" connected with love, dating, marriages, divorces, and relationships in general!
