Newly dating. Doing the slow, just coffee, on the phone & meeting after work for a drink kinda dating. In my 50's and still unloading baggage and don't want to make the same damn mistake or hurt some nice guy. Last Friday a guy I've been seeing gave me his conditions for us moving forward. One was, it's time to get physical. Or bye-bye. We've never been on a real date, I don't know him. Really? I said good bye. So glad that he rushed it and gave me a heads up.

In your 50's and haven't learned to spell Ultimatums? (i'll cut you slack on conditions, as that looks like a typo) |

I'm a science geek...my spelling....what can I say, I should have a dictionary in every room. Where the hell is spell check when I need it! |

Good move. Once I see a woman has serious control issues, I'm gone. |

Good for you for shoving off! Call me old fashioned if you will but what ever happenened to romance? I'm in my 50s also and still believe there's a shot at one more big love. Let's face it...at our age we've had plenty of sex so getting DELETED isn't as big of an issue. I am friendly with a woman who has picked up on my unspoken attraction. The eyes never lie... @ |

I've been put off from getting to know a guy better by the "look in their eyes". A cold, calculating stare is very unnerving. Same with lewd stare in a guy you don't know well. Pleading eyes, so sad. So, I wish you well in a second chance for romance. It's nice hearing from a guy that they still believe in it. Also having some fun for a change, in & out of bedroom. And a good laugh. |

Good for you! You might want to read the book Act Like A Lady -Think Like a Man by Steve Harvey and then pass it on to any single female family members or friends.

Tell him that you want him to get a physical first and see what his reaction is! |

So glad that he rushed it and gave me a heads up. sounds to me like all he wanted was a roll in the hay. period. if he was really truly interested in you....then...the physical part would be understood as something that would happen when the time was right, not a condition for whether or not you continue to date. you did the right thing by showing him the door. |

I think she meant get "physical" as in a relationship, not get "a physical'. I'm as easy going as the next guy and I'll bend over backwards for a woman, but not if it means getting a colonoscopy.... I draw the line there!
