Got one I need some ideas on.. Going back home for the holidays, and in addtion to the celebrations and family get togethers, i know there are gong to the well intentioned match making attempts from family. In the past i have always, avoided these the best i can ... i live thousands miles of miles from home, so i never consider any of these matches viable..  i don't do log distance relationships, and the idea of figuring who is moving or giving up what is just too much work...

but this time, i am thinking a little differently. I hate being single!! i miss being in a relationship, and i am thinking of just enjoying myself for the duration of the vaction... Now, i am not talking about sex.. i still have never been able to do the casual sex thing, but thinking abt do the whole boyfriend thing. take someone out for dinner, movie, buy flowers, talk, maybe even make out, though that maybe too much of a temptation, and end up going further than i want.

the only issue to what sounds like a good idea to  me (for now) is i have a concious the size of Mt Everest, and the idea of possibly leading someone on would bother for a long time afterwards. The guilt would eat at me, which is why i have avoid these matched in the past.

So now i try to figure out how to let someone know upfront that for the vaction, i want to be, i guess, the exact opposite of a FWB...want the closeness, don't need the  sex..
