Happy New Year!

The Captain poposed to me October 1.

December 1 he was asking for time to "think" and screwed me out of Christmas.

January 1 he finally officially breaks up with me.

January 2 he is back on Match.com with a brand new profile.

Yeah. You read that right.

So if you run across FromNowOn9 on Match.com, AVOID HIM.

Rings & Things

So, the Captain proposed to me on his birthday, October the 1st, and I said yes. When I asked why he chose his birthday, he said that it would be the best birthday present he could ever hope for.

No details, no date set yet, but May 1st is being tossed around.

Hard to believe it's been ten months (funny how I didn't realize that but my ex-husband knew it down to the day) and I've agreed to marry a guy I still only see 2 or 3 times a week.

Hard to believe that he lived less than 5 miles from me for over a year and I had to meet him on the Interweb.

The hardest part is going to be letting him be the man. That's going to be a big adjustment, I've gotten very used to taking care of everything and giving up total control will be very hard. I don't have a lot of practice making joint decisions and letting someone else help.

Onwards and upwards...

How nature says "Do not touch"

Apparently I rock a blue cardigan, because I got hit on in Starbucks this morning. It was way more crowded than usual, so I had to wait in line, and I noticed this guy notice me. If I was single, I may have been interested, but I didn't put out any signals. So I'm paying and stuffing my change back in my wallet and he suddenly comes around the coffee display holding out his hands. I just sort of look at him and he says "I was sort of hoping you'd drop some and I could catch it." I just smiled and said that I didn't have that much to drop. he asked what I was getting and I told him my usual cinnamon dolce latte and he says "Oh, fancy!" I looked at the girl behind the counter and she rolled her eyes. I'm politely smiling and not making eye contact and he just isn't getting it. He asks if I always get that and I said yes, even with all the calories. He laughed and did whatever VP types do to their coffee while they wait to pounce.

He wasn't bad looking, don't get me wrong, but he looked like one of those generic corporate VP types with a perfectly starched blue shirt with a very subdued windowpane plaid, khaki slacks, and the perfectly coiffed hair. Tanned, stout, probably plays a lot of golf. Divorced because the kids went off to college, or because he liked the strippers a little too much. Plus, he's got a copy of the Washington Post on his table. Not someone I'd have a lot in common with, probably.

So after I got my coffee I'm walking to the door, he winds up beside me and holds the door open for me, and I said thank you, and went to walk away, and by this point I'm thinking dude, you're not getting anywhere with this, but you get an A for effort. He asks if I always come to this Starbucks, and I just turned around and said, "I'm on a first name basis with my shrink and I belong to the National Rifle Association. Have a great day!"

He let me go willingly. Remember that the next time you meet Mr Creepy.

dating

I am very clear in my profile what I am looking for as NOT looking for. I want long term, kids, faithful... dud. i want someone my age, don't like beards, not into interacial dating.... Sooooooooooo do any of you guys think the guy below actually READ my profile before he wrote me, or wanna bet he looed at the pics...
also, for those of you know who know what i do for a living I have NO fingernails hahahaha


Hello,

I live in North Texas, but I start and end all of my trips in Atlanta, Georgia.

Being that I am an Airline Pilot I travel a lot.

I have a college degree and work in a very exciting/professional career field.

I am 37 years old.

I am not single and have no intentions of changing that aspect in my life. If this is a problem you can stop reading and I thank you for your time.

No Home Wreckers, No Money Seekers, OR Sugar Daddy seekers!! I am not your guy.

I am looking for someone that I can carry on a good conversation with and someone who has a good sense of humor. I am very laid back and easy going.

I have no preset notions and want to start out by talking as friends and go from there.

I joined POF in August of 2008. Why am I on here if I am Not Single/ Not Looking? If we happen to have a good conversation we can talk about my reason at a later time.

I am not looking to jump in the sack with just anyone. In my opinion there needs to be more there in the chemistry department if you really want to enjoy that aspect between two people anyway, should we even decide to go there.

I am drug and disease free and I would prefer the same of you.

I am a very clean person and take showers at least twice if not three times a day. I shave my head by choice, but should I decide to grow hair it is brown. I am height and weight proportionate.

My schedule varies every month and I usually know it a month in advance.

I have all my teeth and I have very good hygiene. I ask for you to have the same. Good hygiene is very important to me.

I am a hands person and I love elegant hands on a lady. I like someone who takes care of herself and gets her nails done, but no bear claws. Someone that has natural length nails that are done right. Think like in the palmolive commercial. I like hands that are feminine and are well taken care of.

Discreetness is a must and again I am not looking to ruin any situation your currently involved in or vice versa.

We can talk and hopefully become friends. If we get a chance possibly we can Hang out and just see what happens.

Please get in touch with me if you are interested and we can start talking. I have more pictures that I can share if we start communicating more.

Thank you.

First Date
We would be comfortable before meeting and then possibly we can meet for drinks. The rest of the date will be up to us. No Pressure and as stated above I am very laid back and easy going.

My luck...

Super cute guy I was supposed to meet out for coffee tomorrow night had to postpone...
Was spraying the Wasps nest in his shutters and "one flew out at my face" he didn't say it, but I think he got stung and doesn't want to meet all swelled up, which I can't blame ....
But he also fell off the ladder. No broken bones boy bruised up. Hopefully we reschedule next week!!

And loser honorable mention !! Was supposed to meet a guy out for Thai food this past Friday.......... he has asked me earlier in the week if " iwanted to come over and make out on the sofa chuckle chuckle" I declines having not even spoken to much less met this man. So when I sent an email to confirm on Thurs. I had been blocked.... Not even mad or bothered, Glad none of my time waas wasted and got thai food on my own.

Now I like to make out as much as the next girl, but you hadn't even bothered to call me yet !!! LOSER

I just don't understand !!!

ok, I just don't understand it, and if any of you can give me an explanation I will gladly listen.
First let it be know, I do not "sleep around" as Kelly Clarkson says ' I do not hook up" At 41 years old, I can count on both hands and a few toes how many men i have slept with. So the following events are not my "style' by any means.

I met A online, attraction at first sight !!! Our first meeting was me going over to his house and hanging with him and his daughter, who is awesome. Yes I know.... meeting the child the first time you met him?? WTH. But she is with him 90% of the time so in this situation it was if you are dating him, you are dating them.
Now all of you know I want to get married and have kids, so this actually does not bother me in the least....... We had a great day, I went home.
2nd date................ long story short, I spend the night............. iknow, prob not smart. But there was total chemistry. I am 41 he is 48, we are grown ups.
Tells me as i am leaving he totally wants to see me next weekend.
3rd Date. Once again great time. Next morning he is making me coffee and waffles and talking about getting my goddaughters and his daughter together for a playdate soon. All going merrily along right !!!!!

Monday comes and by IM----- I am told "we have to talk, it is not you, its me. I can't do this. I don't see you as long term........" WTF just happened?????? Someone PLEASE tell me!!!!!!!!
if I was just a HOOKUP, I doubt he would have told me the magnatude of personal information about himself, and was willing to leave me alone in his house while he went to the store.
Anyone help with this??????
