Here is another one - DELETE!

I have closed over 600 on EH - but take heart - 11 are still open including the yacht engineer who is coming back this week - he did write a nice goodbye letter 2 weeks ago.

Anyway, Listen to this one. He is 43 and says his passion is to be active and to find a wife. He has traveled the world - has pix in Japan, Colorado, somewhere else. Loves biking, hiking adventure. Profile indicates yes he wants kids.

But his first question flipped me out and my hairpin trigger finger hit the delete key. It said, "if you were to marry, how many kids do you want?"

So, I think in addition to finding a wife, he wants her to have kids. But for a first question - that is just too much. And he lives a little further than I would like. I wonder how he is going to fit them into his trips to Japan, anyway.

HAHAHA - there are all types out there.

On a bright note, there is one on match who just got my phone number - so at least there are two I could consider - that one and the one from NZ who has been away on his yacht. LOL!!

My other two friends, who had been dating all this time are now zero for zero with theirs - one broke up with her bf a few months ago and the other this weekend. So now I have more buddies. And I just signed up for a bunch of local stuff for biking, charity raising, running, triathlons, swimming, school stuff, football stuff for DS and more - a big variety. So no worries.

If truth be told, I like the yacht one the most. But he is still on his trip.

The pros: he is a kiwi and I love the way they talk, he has a lot of the same interests, he is nice the way he writes and he really wants to meet someone and settle down according to what he says. He is an engineer for yachts and airplanes and we have plenty of those there so it is theoretically doable.

The cons: his job right now has him traveling and we have not met.

But I am not getting stuck on him - karateman has my number and should call soon and another one is writing on EH. Although I am not so sure about him because his profile sounds like the dreamy love thing - wants to find true love who believes in true love. But men are not always so educated - so have to meet him and see what is in his head - but we have started the endearing EH communication process so at the very least it is a story for here - right?

But 3 good prospects to write to and talk to is a good thing.

There was the nicest doctor who emailed through match - didn't have a picture up - but he wrote well and had a great profile although admitted to being a workaholic - and he emailed me his pic and I about dropped on the floor. OMG. NO! The poor thing needs an ENTIRE makeover. So I never wrote back. I feel bad -


Don't feel bad...I KNOW this kind of doctor/bachelor all too well!

Exactly, April. And they are married to their work, and if you don't like it, no worries to them, they always have another poor soul willing to sop up their messes just to date a doctor and if that doesnt work well hey- there's always mom to bring him soup. lol! funny but true!
