Well my guy from out of state has informed me that he just got assigned a job for the next 5-6 months out of state. Now that is great news jobs that long don't come around all that often for him and it is near his kids so that is great. I'm truly happy for him but where does that leave me??? We will discuss that when I see him next. We haven't talked much. Okay we talk twice a day but never for very long. He's got work and kids in ball and I've got work and getting everything ready to go to Disney for a week. I'm going to continue to date other people or at least meet other people. I like dating. I'm not sure I like the relationship stuff. So back to dating and I guess if he wants to come up here and take me out to dinner then that would be fine but that will be it. Is this a good plan?
Oh potential new guy I talk to almost everyday. He works in the mall too is going to bring me his DVD player and the first season of Airwolf to keep me entertained on the trip. He might have to be my next bf. We will see. I need to learn to slow things down. But I adore him and he brightens up my day. I've known him for years. He left for awhile got transfered to another store and I was so happy to see him back. We will just have to see where that one goes. It has seemed that we are not both out of relationships at the same time. Maybe when I get back?????
Me and the kids leave for Disney tomorrow! I'm as excited as they are if not more so. I love my mom and dad and they are the best people in the world. Taking me and the kids to Disney is I'm sure not what my dad would pick to do on his 33rd Wedding anniversary but the things that man will do to entertain my mom is amazing. He swore 20 years ago that he would never go back to Disney, but my mom told him the kids needed to go before they got too old to enjoy it and he booked the trip for us all. That is what I'm looking for in a man. I want the guy who will roll his eyes and just do it because it is important to me.

I most full heartedly approve of your plan!!!!!!!! I could not write it better myself.
YES YES YES - put yourself first - get out there and do casual dating. And enjoy. If this one wants to take you to dinner, fine. But his situation is his problem and not yours. Dating later in life is a matter of "situations" - they have to match up - no matter what the person is like. And while he may like you and have good intentions, his job and kids are somewhere else.
Anyway, I think casual dating is the way to go - date as many as you can - this way you don't get stuck on one - you can take your time to get to know them and see what they are like and about - and your chances of meeting a good one are better. I think when you go into relationship mode too soon you get in the "make it work" mode too soon.
Find one that is into you as much as your dad is into your mom - that is a great example you have.
And I do hope you enjoy your trip to Disney - we were just there in May and it really is a magical place.
I like your plan!
I also like that you can see what you're looking for, and trust me, you'll find it if you look carfully and closely enough, and are patient enough. It took me nearly six years, but I found my eye-roller.
Enjoy Disney, we went in April and had a ball- and since I live in the Northeast, we also enjoying getting suntanned while everyone at home was shoveling 6 or more inches of snow.
