Never really found those boyish looks that appealling in his titanic days, but been hooked on Leo since The Departed. He's definitely not a boy anymore!
Oh my he is sexy sexy sexy in The Departed. His love scene (especially the kiss) with Vera is one of the hottest I've seen.

Yatts: C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S !!!! Seriously dude, your moving out of your parent's house is a HUGE step in the right direction. And I didn't know you were back to school - so another HUGE "way-to-go!" Now those two actions combined impress me far, far more than body work. Go feed your head. :-) =========================================== yatterman1 wrote:
1) I am certain I will be able to get a girlfriend if all my procedures turn out well.
2) I'll get more than just a couple dates. Yeah there's a good chance my first relationships will be short lived as I have no first hand experience with relationships and I would probably be too clingy and needy for most girls taste.
3) I am not living with my parents at the moment.

He's studying for his Cisco certification. This is a wise choice and will help him a GREAT deal in future endeavours in the IT field.

Ow. Cisco rocks. That is one company that never seems to take a drubbing on the stock exchange. I should think that being certified in Cisco training would be a big asset. Like Oracle, only much kinder, gentler. Well, Yatts must be at the bar even now .. cuz we ain't hearing a peep from the lil' nerd. :-)

Just a speed dating analogy. One of my husbands friends did it once (he's cute, sweet, smart...but really shy) so I know the basics.
Last week I had a new patient come in who was very handsome. His history was compelling. That was about the length of a speed date I think. Then I took more of his history and examined him -lived with his parents, not too bright, racist, etc.
The same day another new patient came in who was kind of average, seemed not too interesting. About the length of a speed date. After the rest of the history which I had to drag out of him, he was fascinating, courageous, dry wit, etc.
I'm not comparing dating to a doctor's appointment, only the essence of time.

One of the guys I said yes to from speed dating but who wasn't attractive has been emailing me alot and I haven't been too quick in getting back to him because I'm not really into him so I'm not in a rush to get right back to him. In my email to him I had asked him if he had gone to any other events that this organization has and he's like well I went to another speed dating one because this girl I met never got back to me (he was speaking of me and trying to joke I guess). But I'm thinking he needs to back off.
Then I saw him yesterday at another event (not a dating one) and he's like so how often do you check your email, again putting me on the spot that I took 3 days to get back to him instead of immediately....God forbid. So then he's like I want to go out this week. And I'm like ok why don't we go bowling thinking I like interactive dates that are fun. And he's like no we should sit and talk. And I said again I really enjoy fun, interactive dates thinking listen buddy I'm not into you but if we can have fun together and laugh maybe something can develop and grow. And again he insists on drinks at a lounge. So again I say honestly I've been on dozens of dates and I want to do something more interactive and fun thinking there's no chance for us if we just sit and talk. So he's like fine where do you live so I tell him that my town has a bowling alley and he's like well so does mine so we'll find one in the middle. Meanwhile his town is only 30 minutes from me. I'm thinking stop arguing with me, be a gentleman, offer to come to me and don't make me do something I don't want to do when I have no interest in you. And then he keeps saying I know you're going to flake out on me.
Why on earth would I want to go out with this guy? He doesn't offer anything in the looks department but his personality and the way he was acting have really turned me off. Now I really don't want to go and it's tricky because I will absolutely run into him again and he seems to be the angry type. Like if I cancel and tell him he was too pushy or whatever he'll be a jerk to me when i see him again.
I just feel like he's an idiot.

I just feel like he's an idiot. Hmm....gee....i wonder why you arnt into him. I mean you mention twice in this post that he is unattractive.....but im SURE that has NOTHING to do with it.... And how DARE a man want to sit down and talk to a girl to get to know her!! *gasp* the nerve of him!!! he should be executed!!! BURN HIM!!! BURN HIM!!! If i were to go out on a first date with a girl i would want the same thing...to sit down and talk to her to get to know her......guess I should burn at the stake with him, right?

Ow. Speed dating sounds just so painfully demoralizing, unsatisfying, and even downright irritating. I am so glad not to be on that circuit ... and even if I found myself ALONE I know I'd just get a dog, read a good book, do some volunteer work, exercise as always, and be so thoroughly at peace with myself. I am a happy hermit of sorts. But I think a lot of that contentment comes with my age ... the upside of 54!

Attractive or unattractive, if a guy had been that rude or 'pushy', I would have told him to get lost. I had something similar happen to me when I was dating back in 2000, although not through speeding dating. I met one fellow who 'hounded' me to death. He was intimidating and came off as angry also. I was trying to be nice and was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but my initial gut instinct (of this guy is not for me) should have overruled my nice side and trying not to jump to conclusions about someone. That was the last time I didn't listen to my gut reaction.

we seldom agree but here think i'm with you maybe cindy needs bowling as a ditraction, or she'd let slip that she believes in trial by oprah etc.. these dating things tend to work both ways..so if you aren't pulling who you want to, maybe you have to look at how people will perceive you in 5 minutes flat, or maybe, better still, question why you are going at all. the interactive / fun bit of a date COULD just be talking?? strange but true yatterman1 wrote:

If you do not want to go out with him, don't go. Nip it off asap. Who knows, he could end up stalking you or something.

That was the last time I didn't listen to my gut reaction. Sorry but he didnt sound rude to me at all. She said yes to him and he was trying to get to know her....that's the way I see it. I mean if he was calling her 8 times a day and talking about having kids...yeah I would understand...but from what she said he did nothing wrong at all. Personally I would be ultra flattered if a girl was pushy about getting with me...in fact that would be what I would WANT. I guess its a guy thing.
