I never seem to meet any women in the winter. My love life has been very slow lately. I am supposed to get a drink with a lawyer I met this summer who I've been talking to on Facebook fairly consistently, but we seem to be having issues pinning down a day.

I met a girl the night before halloween, and we've been seeing each other regularly since. She says she doesn't want a commited relationship, which works well for me, but everything seems to be travelling in that direction anyways so we'll see what happens. She's amazing, and it's just ridiculous how well we work together, especially contrasted with previous girls. I meet her dad next week. Updates to follow I suppose.

If you're not in a commited relationship, why the hell are you meeting her father?

Met a girl last friday that i went out with last Saturday. She's Chinese born but grew up here. She's pretty shy and really doesn't talk very much. We had a nice time on the date but it was totally G rated including a goodnight hug. We've talked on the phone this week and are supposed to do something tomorrow but who knows where it's going. She's 24 and I'm 31 which makes me think it's doomed but I'm going to run with it for now. Other than her I got nothing going on. I'm new in town

Are you talking about paying for the whole meal (or whatever it is) or just her own share. In my experience if a girl consistently pays for her share/ her meal then it means "I'm a friend, not dating you."

is this thread the new "relationship advice" thread? new girl i have been seeing (not dating) for a couple of weeks now. i met her at a bar the usual way, flirty but ended having a definite connection and lots in common. i got the idea she was a bit wild when i met her. we dont go on dates, we go out to bars and parties and drink. the first week, i slept maybe 15 hours total. we would stay up until our 9am class and part ways until i got off work at 8pm. never a boring moment. no sex until last monday. was really good though. fast forward to the weekend. she goes to florida to see her brother and a few childhood friends. comes back and says shes leaving "asap". im like wtf but just roll with it, we arent dating after all. after 36 hours of awkward texts explaining things, she talks herself into finishing the semester and not leaving until december. i like her quite a bit, only known her for 2 and a half weeks. she is definately leaving in december. whats my play, just 2 months of sex and drinking? escalate things further cuz i like her (this doesnt happen much)? can anyone share similar stories that have endings? and possibly feelings of regret lol
/update so im pretty sure this is the most serious i have ever taken a relationship. she is out of town for good next wednesday. she has been my consistent thursday-sat morning girl for the past few weeks, trying not to go beyond that. i dont know if i can just forget about this.

^ She never said you were exclusive, so I'm thinking she has this all labeled as a fling. Proceed with what it is. Don't make it what it won't ever become (relationship). If she's leaving, take advantage of the opportunity. Sex and partying. That's it.

I personally don't let the girl pay...ever. It's a nice gesture if she will offer to pick up the tab and I'll let her pick it up like for one date for every ten I pay. On the other hand, if she doesn't say "thank you" after the date, I am not pleased or after dinner. Doesn't have to be a good "thank you", if you know what I mean. A simple thanks for dinner is all I need.

Having moved back to New York from four year college in Boston, I found my social circle to be pretty much non-existent in New York. I think for 5 months work, I've done very well in rebuilding my social circle. I now roll with a few guys but mostly a bunch of 24-26 year old women (you kind of have to if you want to get in anywhere in NYC). What sucks is that I don't meet any women my age, hardly. All the women I meet are they're age. One of the women I went on a date with told me they thought I was 27 (I'm 22). I guess its because I dress very maturely for my age when I go clubbing.
