Do you mean “formulaic?” |
I meant lacking substance- could be both formulaic and formalistic. Just to text her something to fill the air |
Does your friend not work outside the home? What job did her ex husband have? I’m finding it hard to understand how “I’m busy at work” is a foreign concept to her, especially in the DC area. |
It’s dating, so… |
Yup, I agree. "If they want to, they will" is equally applicable to both sexes. |
Curious about this as someone not from DC. If you were dating someone super busy like a White House aide, how much time would you expect them to make for you? |
Men make time if they like you. Dated public officials from Pentagon and House Representatives. One was divorced with 3kids, he would always bring flowers and stay overnight any day he didn't have kids. He was waking up at 5am to work on his papers and then jumped into bed with me to have sex |
Wut? You're: single childless employed by the fed It's literally impossible that you have 'a lot' going on. |
What were his work hours? What happened with the relationship? |
He often stayed at the office till 9pm, and then we met after hours in downtown, went to night places, chess clubs and had sex. It was very passionate but didn't work out because of different relationship timeline for two of us. He was also a year younger than me, and I behaved very insecure adding tension |
What was the difference in the relationship timeline? He sounds like he was very into moving it forward. |
Yes, he was. It was my own stupid behavior that destroyed it. Nothing related to his job, kids or anything. Just my first relationship post divorce and I went crazy |
About to launch into dating post divorce too. Any advice? How did you meet him, on OLD? |
Yes, on OLD. |
Do you recommend any particular app? |
