and last: telling men that you are bi or date women, will move you up in the dating social ladder. In america at least.
whenever a women admit to being bi, guys are lining up.

My "problem" is I wouldn't want to be in the company of some one that wants to be in the company of some one like me , I don't have an ego you see (not saying that the op is one of those persons mind due) :oops: Imagine that some one is so worthy that "other" wants to be in your company day in day out, wash rinse and repeat :eew:
Sounds really creepy to me

I don't think this is the response your looking for, oh well . :lol:

Have you met any people in real life that you were really attracted to, but didn`t act on it?

As a corollary of this question, yellow, what fictional characters do you find attractive, and why? What would be an awesome date?

Seriously not looking for ideas, I'm just curious. And I'm wondering if there's a way of thinking which might help cross that digital-analog divide.

I wonder if part of the problem isn't that you're comparing your dates to yourself rather than to each other. Hard for anyone to compete with a 25 year old relationship.

What's with the wedding/engagement ring scene, bit random? Lol

The awkward bit I referred to is the bit where I have to say "actually sorry, I'm not interested". I once had a guy hold my hand at a movie on our second date. I had made up my mind sometime after we'd got the tickets that I wasn't interested. It would have been way too uncomfortable to not let him hold my hand (how do you explain during a movie?) so I had to tell him afterwards. I said that I didn't think I'd given him signals that I wanted him to do it, and he said yeah but he thought I was just shy. I know I know, don't see a movie til you are sure you like them!

Also I think I might kinda give off vibes that I am interested even if I'm not, because I'm friendly and enjoying myself, and trying to see if I can get spark happening. This can come across as real interest and is confusing for the other person. So traditionally I've tried to make up my mind as soon as possible, I suppose, partly for this reason.

If you don't want a person to hold your hand you just move it away - you are under no obligation plus it gives the wrong message
as any form of allowed contact gives a signal that you are happy for further touching to occur - that's what the touch test is all about. You are giving very mixed signals.

Yeah I realise that. But I wanted to enjoy the movie, not watch it sitting next to someone I just rejected. My hand wasn't even in a mutual spot, he just reached over and held it. I set things straight as soon as the movie was over, when we could speak. It wasn't my proudest moment but I've learnt from it. It was an extreme example, and usually it's just a case of me saying straight away that I'm not interested, but somehow I'm still not great at it because they will sometimes want to ask why, and what did they do wrong, and how can they change my mind, and can we hang out again as friends. A simple "sorry not interested" sometimes turns into a huge, headachey saga. I'm too okay with being single to feel like it's worth the risk.

In my opinion it should never go to a second date if you weren't definitely interested

I agree, this is very misleading. If you rejected them in mind on the first date then no further date is needed.

There's things I want to say here but I don't want to make you blush in public. :lol:

Yes, but only because they weren't single.

Fictional characters? Hmm... I don't think I'm generally attracted to fictional characters. Some are good-looking, but physical attraction isn't my problem, so I don't think listing them would help.

An awesome date? I like all types of dates, dating is fun. I suppose my favourites have been ones where we move around, e.g. grabbing a drink at various bars, or going from dinner to movie to bar. Something like that. I had a 6 hour first date that was spent chatting at a cafe then going for a bushwalk. I also like going places like the zoo or similar.

We should meet over a cup of wine and whine about women together.
