Would you date you?

[DaysAreGettingLongerNow]

Not a TAAT but this was asked in another thread.

It’s got me thinking.

I wouldn’t date me. I’m far too antisocial, busy doing my own thing, staring at screens, running around after my kids, being stressed.

I’m not sure whether I’m interested in getting into another relationship anyway, but right now I don’t think I’m an appealing prospect anyway.

You?

No, I'm too indepedent!

Jesus, no way.

But men are men and do not learn

I don't think I would be good enough for what I think I deserve.

I wouldn’t. I’ve got too much going on with my teenage dc, I am always cancelling arrangements, I want to keep all my money to myself and I am basically quite selfish.

Hell yes! I'm drop dead gorgeous me

Absolutely, I'd be lucky to have me 😁

Yes I would I’m kind and put people before myself, I work hard and successful. Not bad looking and have a good sense of humour. My younger self had no self esteem and I thought I was ugly and looking back at pictures I was far from it. Sometimes age brings confidence. I’m 35 now and I think my dh helped my confidence.

No. I mean i think I'm amazing, obviously, but two versions of me dating each other would be a recipe for disaster!

No, because I look for traits that are kind of different to mine. I'm outgoing but prefer quietly confident men. I like planners, whereas I'm more easygoing.

This is such a good question!

I’ve never thought about it before, but I’ve decided I actually would date myself. And now I’m feeling a bit better about today - so thank you, OP!

Nope. If I ended splitting from dh, I don't actually think I would want to date me. No matter how much I try, to be a positive person I think my negativity affects a lot of relationships. And it's ended a lot of friendships.

Probably not. My DC are my main priority especially since their DF (my ExH) died last year. I gave up alcohol nearly 3 years ago, I like going to bed early, don't watch much TV, love doing up my house the way I want it, not into sex much anymore, like my own company but also love spending time with my family and friends.

Living the dream 😂

Yes, in a heartbeat. I’m loyal, funny, kind and my big boobs and good looks are going to waste.

Oh yes of course. I actually consider myself pretty perfect in every way!

I would date me, but not live with me.

I am kind, funny, I care about other people and I’m not too bad looking! I am stubborn, and a bit insecure and I think I’d be really hard to live with.

Yes, I’m awesome. Loving, loyal, thoughtful. Always want to go the extra mile to make something special. Very family oriented. Peacemaker who always plays fair. Both spontaneous and a planner of fun events. Good at baking, cooking and sex. What’s not to love?

I think I'd date you with that list!

Would most women date most men if most women knew what most men thought of them?

Most women are perfectly dateable, but have poor self image and low standards of their equivalent man, due to socialisation.

Women need to understand that they are the catch. Older women do very well as singletons as they are already right there to take care of themself.

Yes I would. I'm a good all rounder.

Not a chance!!

I would date me, I am attractive with a good figure, lots of fun always laughing and very adventurous in bed with a high sex drive.

I wouldn't have a long relationship with me though, I am incredibly insecure, an over thinker and I twist things in my head and blow minor issues right out of proportion. I'm working on it though.

Yes I would I'm generally an easygoing nice person except when I'm hormonal

@mamaoffourdc

Nope! I'm far too lazy and moody - I also have 4 kids 😳😂

This is me

Nah. I'm a pain in the arse! Stubborn, independent and introverted. I don't need a man and none I have met until DP liked that. Also a single parent and my kids are full on.

DP puts up with me though, poor sod.

God no. I'm a total pain in the arse.
