I just accepted a date for tonight with another Scorpio, And he has the same first name as the last scorp. YIKES!!LOL!!! This one however seems to be much more into the same kind of life style that I am into and NOT a couch potato. I usually date tall men and he is only 5'8, but I'm really trying to get past that shallow thing. Someone's height is a ridiculous thing to worry about. So many shorter men are very nice and have so much to offer. It just makes me feel like a giant when I am with a shorter guy, but that's my issue isn't it?

I am 5'7 and I like to wear heels. People always guess me at 5'9 so short guys make me feel like an amazon woman. I doubt if this guy has any issues with getting women though. He is very successful. His height does seem to be his only "short" coming that I've noticed so far. 😉 The real test will be his hands and feet. If his hands and feet are smaller than mine that's where I draw the line. I really can't deal with small hands and feet on a guy and you know what they say about small feet and hands. Hahaha!

The guy was perfect on paper. He was good looking, and he was completely wealthy, and well traveled and a gourmet cook and brought an insanely expensive bottle of wine with him to dinner, and he was completely into me. As he sat there wooing me and telling me all the things that he wanted to do and all the places he wanted to go which match my desires exactly, I was wavering back and forth the whole night trying to decide if I was attracted to him. Then at the end of the night he tried to kiss me in front of all the valet guys with this big open mouth toungue kiss that was so gross and slobbery. Not once but twice. Yuck!! I felt absolutely no chemistry even after a bottle of wine. How do women date men just because of money? How can they sleep with someone they are not attracted to? After getting hurt by my last scorp, I actually thought it would be easier to just date someone with lots of money because than when I get screwed over by him I at least got some nice dinners and travel out of him. LOL!!! I see why women turn into pretentious bitches, but I honestly just can't do it. I have to feel something. My mother's motto is that "you can fall in love with a rich guy just as easy as a poor guy if you just stay away from the poor guys." Of course she said this after being married to 2 not poor, but certainly not rich men. 😉

gslove what are you looking for?

My mother told me when I left my sons father (pisces) at the age of 26

She said "It took you 20 years to find him and it will probably take you another 20 years to find a another good man and you will go through a lot of men to get that ONE again"


And damn if she was not right. Here I am almost 47yrs old, 20 years later and I have found what I was looking for all along.

Scorpion lady, I have not found what I am looking for. My last serious relationship was about 13 years ago and even though it was a 5 year relationship, it was not real love. It was pretty toxic in fact. I thought I was in love. I really do feel like though that I am getting really close to finding the right partner. For the first time I feel like I'm really ready for it too. I'm no longer afraid of getting hurt. I know that sometimes that is just part of the process and you have to risk hurt to find true happiness. Of course it does not feel good to get hurt, but if you are happy with yourself you bounce back really quickly. I used to view dating as so much work and I hated doing it and I was only doing it because I felt like I should. Now I just have fun and just try to not be attached to the outcome. My new attitude has definitely shifted the way I respond to men and the way they respond to me. I have to fight them off with a stick now. LOL!!!

Yea I feel you on the not wanting to be hurt again, I has taken me a min to loosen up and I am still working on it.

I was not looking when I met my Gem I actually met him on a blind date, that I refused for 3 weeks, then when I finally gave in, I laughed in his face the first time I saw him. 🙂 He asked me did I like what I saw and I said yea I asked him the same questions he said yea and it's be on ever since.

He is much taller than me and I love it cuz ain't nothing like looking up to your man on your tippy toes 🙂

I have dated a short man before felt stupid glad that did not last long. Some things I'm just not going to comprimise on.

"Yea I feel you on the not wanting to be hurt again, I has taken me a min to loosen up and I am still working on it."

Yep, it's still a work in progress, but I know exactly who I am now and no man can ever knock me down again and take away my power. My new motto in relationships is if I like someone and that "what if I get hurt again thought creeps in" I just think "If it feels uncomfortable do it." It's all a learning process and every time it gets a little closer to the one. If it doesn't work out then I just have faith that there is something else better out there for me just waiting to come in and if I am dwelling on old love I am blocking the new one from coming in.

FYI

"It don't take long to see how far the apple fall from the tree"

I know before I met my gem. I was a 3 month rule for some reason every guy I met I found shit about him that I did not want to deal with within 3 months and walked away.

And then I learned ok no one is perfect, so I've learned to sit still for a while and give some LUCKY man 🙂 a chance and get to know them and even thought I ran into all sorts of shit with the Gem, the only I knew to do was informed him of what I will and will not tolerate and he listens and he does. And that is why I have stayed for so long

"Exactly, unblock your energy and open it up so that the universe can bring forth new people into your life who might be better for you."

You are so right.. I spent a many nights and days meditating and thinking about me who I am what I want.... took a deep breath prayed a lot and start learning how to love again on a more mature level and just opened up. Slowly of course 🙂

I think the fun thing about finding love again is that I never saw it coming 🙂
