I'd have to agree with you. Although bri...Erin,<br />I'd have to agree with you. Although brief moments of exceptional passion can be quite gratifying in the short term, they seldom, if ever, compare to the experiences that a truly intimate couple share. I suspect this is due to the fact that, when people take the time to genuinely "invest" themselves in any stage of a relationship, they consequently take the time and effort to make their partner feel special. In return, the partner oftens responds by sharing even more of themselves with their lover, and both people experience a much greater degree of emotional, and physical, satisfaction.<br />I think this also relates to your initial comment regarding dating. Although it can be good to meet, get to know and possibly date more than one person, I would also agree with Chris that despite the fact that dating multiple partners simultaneously can seem fun and ego-boosting, especially for guys, it usually causes the person to reserve and/or guard parts of themselves because they're never truly focused on getting to know the other person, and thus allowing the other person to honestly get to know them.<br />As a final comment, although I myself have never sponsored my own blog, I think it does take a great deal of self-reflection and courage to be able to put one's self "out on public display". Not to disparage "Mr. Dallas", but I wonder if his concern wasn't necessarily that your blog might make you look bad, but how it might reflect upon him, which is a pretty self-centered way to view it, if that's the case.Damiennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-56802427291862071222010-08-24T09:23:46.865-05:002010-08-24T09:23:46.865-05:00To Chris: Thanks, I appreciate your thoughts and y...To Chris: Thanks, I appreciate your thoughts and you reading my blog. You'd be amazed on the amount of flack I receive for my blog. <br /><br />My ex Mr. Dallas told me that I look bad for having this blog. I sometimes wonder if because he had girls date him read my blog. <br /><br />To Zues: Sure would it be nice to get some hot loving...however..it would be nice to have it on a semi consistant basis. None of this 1 and done biz. <br /><br />The beauty of having sex in a relationship of sorts is that the 2of you can learn each other and what you like and make it really really good!Erin Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202243420976752377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-49402123822374678262010-08-24T09:06:25.566-05:002010-08-24T09:06:25.566-05:00Do you ever want to have just red-hot nasty sex an...Do you ever want to have just red-hot nasty sex and be okay with it?Zuesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-85379732724547822762010-08-22T21:03:01.134-05:002010-08-22T21:03:01.134-05:00So, I'm sure I don't speak for most people...So, I'm sure I don't speak for most people, be it male or female. but my perspective is this. While I am looking for the one woman to spend the rest of my life with, I don't date just the one woman I am expecting to be that person. Let's face it, part of a relationship is discovering who a person truly is. When you first meet someone, they aren't going to spill their entire life story to you and you'll know everything about them that instant. it takes time to find the great parts of people.<br /><br />That being said, I don't believe in dating multiple people at the same time. If I'm taking the step to date you, that means I am interested in getting to know you and to find out if we have that connection. If I am already looking at another woman to date, then I am telling myself, this isn't the right person. SO why waste everyone's time if you already see it as failure. Sure, a night of fun is great, but is that really a date or just going through the motions for some fun time.<br /><br />Just my $.02 cents.<br /><br />And Erin. I have to say that I think it's takes a lot of confidence and courage to put your life out on the internet like you do. I've been reading your blog for a few years now and always look forward to your next post. Just wait and don't stress and the right guy will find you.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05562367108371100251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-29082730972457823802010-08-20T07:49:15.033-05:002010-08-20T07:49:15.033-05:00I suppose I don't have to pick just one, altho...I suppose I don't have to pick just one, although having a lot of options that mean nothing would get old. <br /><br />I like having meaningful relationships not this surface bologna.Erin Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202243420976752377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-33447270047960828302010-08-18T17:17:15.734-05:002010-08-18T17:17:15.734-05:00So why do you have to pick just one?So why do you have to pick just one?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-35848540342403663072010-08-12T17:10:24.098-05:002010-08-12T17:10:24.098-05:00I'm not judging Erin.

Ask around. <br /><br />Confidence is not the issue here for me. I'm just letting you know that no guy wants to have to worry about being trashed on your blog simply because he didn't live up to your date expectations. <br /><br />BTW: I would love to take you out but I'm not sure I want to risk disappointing you. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-5404382850430981202010-08-12T16:15:56.587-05:002010-08-12T16:15:56.587-05:00Party girl I'm not but that's your percept...Party girl I'm not but that's your perception for whatever reason!

You kind of come across as a party girl and I would guess that might be what's making them run. That and the fact that you blog about it.

Typical.<br /><br />I agree that there are some crazy chics out there. <br /><br />However some of it is brought on by men and the massive amount of deception that they spew. <br /><br />I have yet to meet a man that isn't deceptive in sp way shape or form.<br /><br />Not trying to be negative...just what I've encountered.Erin Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202243420976752377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-952849078738905228.post-66223810872395002252010-08-12T09:04:09.716-05:002010-08-12T09:04:09.716-05:00It's not that men are unable to commit to one ...It's not that men are unable to commit to one woman.

Let's face it, ...Change the way you view this!<br /><br />Let's face it, all we have to do is say yes. It's so easy. We don't have to be rejected over & over before someone finally agrees to go out with us. <br /><br />It doesn't have to be a love connection, just fun. Eventually something will come along that works both ways (he wants it & she wants it). Until then enjoy. Variety is the spice of life.<br /><br />If you keep hanging all your hopes on that one guy, you'll constantly be disappointed. But if you go out with several, one (actully, several) will surprise you & want to be your companion for life.<br /><br />I don't know why some women find this so hard. I have to tell one of my friends contantly to quit chasing that one guy. Time to let others chase you.<br /><br />Believe me. It works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
