Hey trixiedust, what exactly made you dislike that other thread? Was it that I dumped one girl before moving on so I could maintain a sense of loyalty?

Hey trixiedust, what exactly made you dislike that other thread? Was it that I dumped one girl before moving on so I could maintain a sense of loyalty? You can just call me T, it's easier Johnny. I guess I felt it was pathetic that the other woman was "good enough" until you found someone better. That she was basically just a sexual release and company for you, but nothing more. It "appeared", and I stress that word, that you really didn't care for her, or how she cared for you. It was calculated. Just like what you say to the stockbroker.

Am I the only one somewhat amused about how a thread devoted to appreciating mothers became a thread devoted to helping Johnny hook up with a mother? I wouldn't call it amused on my part, and frankly, after reading the dating advice and the break up thread earlier this week, I'm considering turning lesbian and never going back to men. What's so bad about offering advice on how to handle the kid situation? It's not like he'll be able to ignore the fact that the woman he likes has a kid and hope the kid disappears...

Would you be happy to know you are mostly wrong? Did I find someone better yes. Was I out hunting for someone better? No. And I was doing her a favor by sticking around that long. I don't need her as a sexaul release, I got the internets baby. The only calculated thing about the stock broker was the ice breaker. I feel ackward until I get a conversation going and was trying to get away from ackward and into confident as fast as I could. That should be a good thing right?

Anyways, thank you for that advice. As a 26 year old with no kids I obviously needed some advice. You were great at giving me said advice. I really appreciated it. Thank you.

Wait, you were doing her a favor? WTF does that mean? If you've got the 'internets baby', than you have no reason to keep the relationship with the nurse going, right? I don't mind the "icebreaker", who hasn't felt like they knew just what to say to get over the awkward silence and really get to know the individual? CAn I ask why the confidence needed? You seem to be a very confident individual already. Very funny too.

But, you may want to take my advice with a grain of salt. As a 22 year old with no kids and almost no dating experience myself, I'm not sure how helpful my advice truly is. And the angry face confused me. If I had been telling you to buy the kid some candy and tell her to tell her mom how great you are, I could see someone getting offended at that. But suggesting you ask her about what she got for Christmas as an ice-breaker for when you first meet her? I fail to see how that's a bad thing.

Anyways, thank you for that advice. As a 26 year old with no kids I obviously needed some advice. You were great at giving me said advice. I really appreciated it. Thank you. Here's advice on a little girl, age 4. Most of them all are interested in girly things because they so closely associate themselves with their mom. That doesn't mean she is though. Just take your time to talk to her, don't think that she automatically likes pink as a color and barbies even though someone gave them to her at holiday. She may actually have a thing for drawing, science or horses. Remember adults asking you questions that made you think they were idiots? We're most of them based on assumptions and generalizations? Simply ask her what she likes best, then take the time to find out why she likes it, and do a bit of research on it yourself. It's just like dating a woman really, only on a much more innocent level.

You seem to be a very confident individual already. Very funny too. I was doing her the favor because she was a lonely single mom. She had some good traits but it just wasn't meant to be. I kept her around despite the internets because it felt like it was good for my karma. The icebreaker was just something in case my mind shut down on me. I had something and thats better then risking twenty minutes of just staring at our feet. Confidence is what makes or breaks you. With confidence you can do anything. Without it you can't do anything. I wouldn't say I'm confident, most people describe me as cocky. And thank you, I would like to think I am funny.

Angry face was about you assuming Johnny wanting the kid to disappear. I wasn't assuming that. Like I said, I doubt he'd be taking advice on what to talk to her about if he wanted her to disappear. I was just pointing out that he can't simply ignore the kid; he'll eventually have to speak to her, so why not get some advice on what to say and how to handle the stressful situation of meeting the kid of the woman you like?

Yeah, after the clairfication on the nurse situation, I'd say you come across as cocky. No offense, but that's just the kind of explanation that makes some women see red. I can't speak for your nurse, but I can say that most of us who aren't stupid or terribly insecure would rather be lonely than with a guy who tells his buddies he's doing them a favor by being with them. They'd rather be with someone who likes/loves to share time with them, not just bidding time.

I've had guy friends who tell me stories about playing kitchen with the kid, or even bringing their old action figures to play with the child. Go with your gut, you can never go wrong when you do things honestly.

Thats what my heart of hearts told me.

Go with your gut, you can never go wrong when you do things honestly. I'll play kitchen. That sounds easy. I don't have any action figures so I guess its good I'm afforded the op with a girl here.
