Must be a generational thang because I consider "got something going with" to mean you are already hooking up, or you're already dating and seeing where it leads. In other words, when the "it" already exists rather than still in the process of trying to get the "it" going.

Lol, I can see that context too. You have to remember, though: even very minimal activity still counts as "something" for me. At my age and with my looks, I gotta hold on to any little chance or thing I get.
Because we have to chase him. Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.

Cool. Now here goes my overthinking as usual but...since the e-mails are all in a chain (the way that OKC does their inbox), all the pertinent info is kinda already above. Should I still specifically list the place and time? Or just keep it to a simple "Hey___. Looking foward to meeting you tomorrow...I just wanted to confirm that we're still on?"

Funny story, too: my inbox still messages from Game Playing Girl..she deleted her profile. I wonder if that means she already is in a relationship?

Yeah, that's actually a better idea in that case. Originally Posted by Love'sReject

Aww, rats. I guess she really was lying when she said her profile that she just wants to play the field, not get serious...

I said "usually". Not always. Maybe she just decided to give it a break for a while.

Ah.
Well, here's what I've been up to lately: "Oh, wow, she's attractive...No chance. Next." I just cannot get myself to message another girl. Probably have gone through just about every 20-23 profile in a 16 mile radius..Because we have to chase him. Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

So now is that time for the kick up the ass which I talked about earlier. And not the self flagellation foot!
Never regret anything that has happened in your life. It cannot be changed, forgotten or undone. So, take it as a lesson learned and move on.

Because you aren't being wholehearted. Your efforts aren't working b/c you aren't being who you are, but who you *think* you should be. Very different. Originally Posted by Love'sReject

No. He's looking for the beating b/c he thinks he deserves it. Not sure why; that's his gibbering monkey to take a look at. Originally Posted by basilandthyme

I think you're onto something there...If I had a guy like HIA as wingman, I'd have figured this all out by now I am sure. I wish I could believe that last part; however, if that was even remotely true, I'd have had some success by now.. Originally Posted by IndiReloaded

How many times do we have to tell you that your approach is the thing blocking your success? It's got nothing to do with your appearance. Originally Posted by Love'sReject
