Wanted by many, taken by none
I can understand how dating multiple people can become a ego boost. You’re in high demand, people are jockeying for your time, it’s all about YOU. It’s all fun and games until somebody wants more.
This is usually when the drama starts. It’s not always easy pursuing these mini “relationships” and then you have to decide how and when to narrow things down to one…or at least TWO.
I have noticed that the younger guys I meet say that they are told to juggle many women but it gets really old, really fast for them. I’ve seen a lot of people who prefer to date one person and see how things turn out.
Do you think single people are still playing the numbers game? Do you prefer to have a starting line up or work with your one star athlete?
What are the pros and cons to juggling multiple dates? What’s the best way to do it without causing unnecessary drama and using deceit?

@Leggs…I ain’t throwing away no free dozen eggs…lol…but I ain’t trying to make a batch of scrambled either…hehehe…we go back a very long way together…shared a lot…and we are still friends today…even his ex does not know he is getting this settlement as he says he does not want her to get her hands on a dime of his cash…I suppose if he takes me to meet with his lawyers as he has ask me to do…then I will know sumthin’ anyway.

@PR…anybody who knows me also knows that my integrity and intentions are not for sale…period…$$$ is important when it is earned by the proper channels or received as such…but integrity has no price tag as far as I am concerned…and my friend knows this about me too.

And if the topic is going and flowing please don’t interrupt because you have no interest…please wait until the tide changes. Or frequent a site where something piques your interest until the topic changes. Even if it a bit heated at least there’s a flow and we’re on the subject.

oh NO! I don’t close up @ 5 pm to punish The old blog platform closed automatically and I’ve always forgotten to manually close up because I’m usually in a staff meeting.
Going forward, though, I have no problem keeping an eye on the comments for the late shift LOL at least till 6:00? you’re welcome

@ yes: not fluent in any but english (it’s been suggested that i overcompensate there, lol)…you know how it is – use it or lose it; i do not have much opportunity to use foreign languages in my current milieu (like how i slipped that one in on ya? heeheehee). and more of my ability (past & present both) is related to reading and writing (conducted alot of e-business in french when i worked at pru) than the spoken language – i’ve been told by native speakers that my accent is maravillosa, but i am shy about it nonetheless…spanish, italian, greek, french, german, russian, mandarin, japanese…i think that’s it…
