Triathlon Dating Thread Ver 2.0

first

it's like a race, it's always best to get to the finish the fastest.

Maybe getting there first is why you are having dating problems

Might I recommend an enhancement for this new release?

BeginnerChat, you know, ^ up there ^ is available for your interacting pleasure. You have to be a member to use the chat feature, but, hey, you were looking for a reason to support this great site anyway, right? It costs less than some of the online dating sites previously mentioned AND you are interacting within your target audience - (presumably) triathletes or those who have at least a fleeting interest in it.

Back in the day, Chat was frequented by many regular members. Not a few BT romances were begun in Chat, some even led to marriages. I'd guess that you'd get more people to come out of the woodwork, people who don't otherwise want to leave an i-footprint about their dating lives.

Side note: The Marrieds will still invade the Dating. Buyer beware.

I should disclose I am going on 23 years of marriage this fall.  Just here for the fun of it.

Allrighty, to get this new thread going again... here's a scenario. Tell me what you think.

I met a guy a few weeks ago (on Match.com - yay) and we've been going out every 2 or 3 days. It's casual, fun, whatever. We went out Tuesday night and at the end of the night he asks when he can see me again. Something is casually mentioned about Thursday, but no plans whatsoever. I actually don't even remember Thursday was mentioned.

Last night he calls and texts while I'm working out. Touch base with him around 10 p.m. and he says he thought we had plans, he had a date of some sort planned for us, thought I stood him up and all this. At first I think he's joking, but don't think he was. I said "I didn't realize we had actual plans" and he says "No worries. Get some rest and I'll talk to you later."

So... am I just a little too laissez faire about things (I may or may not have been accused of this in the past)? I mean, is "yeah maybe something Thursday" considered solid plans to you guys? Or was he reading too much into things and maybe should have actually confirmed before setting something up?

Lisa, if it really was as light as "yeah maybe something Thursday" then no, he's just being an as* wad.  Is this "am I in the friend zone guy"?  If so I stand by my original advice, he's a clinger.

Yep same guy.
IDK, there's something refreshing about a guy who actually shows interest. I'll keep an eye on it though
