Question About Dating(for College Guys Only)?

August 3, 2011

A tough dating question this week. Let’s dive straight in

Question: my question for you guys is would you every date a girl who is saving herself for marriage?
well,this girl is me and I might go to a small catholic college in my home state or to community(personal reason) I am not going to a party school like penn. state
do you think a meaningful relationship will happen for me?
also the guy does not have to be a virgin just he can’t cheat on me and stuff.
so what are your opinions on this subject
please no rude answers

Answer: Even at a Catholic school it might be hard for you to find someone who is willing to abstain. A meaningful relationship can definitely happen, but at the same time you shouldn’t expect one immediately just entering college. At a young age and experiencing college, a lot of people, girls and guys, aren’t looking to start something serious and find temptation too hard to resist.

I’m not saying you should give up, but giving a realistic pov.

Can a Girl Take a Boy on a Date?

August 2, 2011

Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:

Question: my parents thinks it is wrong for me to pick my boyfriend up from his house. He has a license but he has not got a car yet from his parents. they feel like it makes me look like i have no self respect if i do that. i don’t really understand that because i am not doing it because i lack self respect but because he wouldnt have any other way to get to our date. He is not really fond of me picking him up anyway and always tells me he’d rather come pick me up for dates. i really just want to know if i am wrong for not seeing the problem with it. and if so can someone explain to me why its soooo wrong apparently.

Answer: I wouldn’t pay any attention to what your parents say - there is NOTHING that says you have no self-respect if you pick him up. In fact it shows that you really do want to be with him if you are willing to do that because he doesn’t have a car yet. The only one I would listen to is your bf. He has an issue with it and other than you, his opinion is the only one that matters in your relationship. He may feel like you picking him up makes him feel less of a man because traditionally it is the boy who picks the girl up. However, this can’t be helped. At the moment you have a car, he doesn’t. However, what you can do is tell him this - make it sound like you a joke to lighten the mood, but he’ll know what you mean: "don’t worry. The minute you get your car, I’m hanging up my keys. I’m going to be a lady of leisure". Unless he’s REALLY slow he’ll know you are not being entirely serious about becoming lazy, but he’ll pick up on the fact that once he can, you’ll let him woo you like he clearly wants to.
But there is nothing wrong with a girl taking a boy out if she has the means to and he doesn’t. The only time it may be a bit wrong is if it is early on in the relationship when normally it is the boy’s job to do that.

Do You Have to Eat a Date Before Eating Dinner when Done Fasting?

August 1, 2011

What’s this week’s dating question? Let’s dive straight in…

Question: Do You Have to Eat a Date Before Eating Dinner when Done Fasting?

Answer: Assalamu Alaikum, My dear Muslim brother/Sister

Because Prophet Mohammad SAW and all his companions used to break his fast, it became a tradition for Muslims.
You do not have to eat dates to break your fast. You can break your fast with fruits and fruit drinks.
Date is very nutritional with sugar and necessary fiber but you don’t have to eat it if you don’t like it.

Would Trivia Night at a Restaurant Be a Good Activity for a 1st Date ?

July 31, 2011

What’s this week’s question? Let’s dive straight in…

Question: We live in Connecticut and the only really fun things to do
is a 1 hour drive or not coming up for a few weeks.

She may find other things like mini golf or a walk in the park to
be boring.

And I don’t want to ask her to the movies because that has been
done over and over again

But, this place is a pretty good restaurant that has pool tables and
darts. Ive seen a picture of her playing pool. So, Im guessing she enjoys it.

This is the restaurant:

Answer: Trivia Night? Hmmm, different, but I dont think a first date should be competitive. I do enjoy playing pool though but then again, if it was me, I might beat you and then I dont want to embarass you that a girl beat you.

Why Does Obama Lie, Deceive, and Spin Tales of Doom About the Aug. 2 "default" Date?

July 30, 2011

A tough dating question this week. Let’s dive straight in

Question: There isn’t going to be a default. The creditors will be paid. Not only the creditors but many other high priority dependents on the federal government: social security, Medicare, Medicaid (which is money to the states), and then other things will either be delayed, delayed and paid with interest, or simply furloughed.

Why is his only political tactic: Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt creation?

Why doesn’t he have an honest discussion with America about exactly what the Treasury will be doing in August should the debt ceiling not get raised? Geitner has been reassuring everyone in the banking community that there will be NO DEFAULT for any reason.
So, in other words, Obama knows creditors will be paid and there will be no default. So, why doesn’t he just say the truth.
So, in other words, Obama knows creditors will be paid and there will be no default. So, why doesn’t he just say the truth.

Answer: I don’t feel he even remotely marginalized the issue at all. He only inflicted more worry imo.
I think you’re just quoting people like Michele Bachmann. She’s very forward about not voting for the debt ceiling to be raised. She believes we don’t need to worry, and isn’t the only tea party politician who’s said that.
I know it’ll never happen, but sometimes I wish that all of them would not get paid if we don’t raise the debt ceiling in the required amount of time. There’d be quite the different tune in DC if it effected their bank accounts like the individuals who rely on ss and medicare. I’m not even making that as a partisan statement. I look at it this way, if they can’t all come together (and that means all of them, I’m sick of the hateful division in politics), then they’re not doing their jobs. Every other adult needs to do their job to get paid, I don’t think they should be the exception.

Can I Ask Him out on 3rd Date?

July 28, 2011

This week’s question is a good one. Let’s have a look:

Question: We are in our 30s and live about 5 hours apart. First 2 dates were amazing. We both only want to see each other. We kissed for a total of probably 2 hours on our 5 hour second date. At the end of the date he said he wants to see me again really soon and the feelings he gets from being near me exceed what he ever expected.

I like him SO much! I told him I had plans the next 2 weekends but I hoped we could work something out because I really enjoyed being with him. He said "absolutely!"

So it has been 5 days now and no 3rd date is planned but he is staying in touch.

Should I continue to wait? I have next weekend free after all, but I’m afraid if i tell him, he’ll feel pressured to ask me out.

I don’t know what to do… Help!

Answer: The one thing Ive learned with dating over the years is that you shouldnt waste opportunites by wondering how the other person will precieve you!! So YES tell him you’re free - in face why do you have to wait for him to ask you out Why not ask him!!!!
Playing it too aloof for fear of what he’ll t hink could result in you loosing him as he may think hes not interested!

Online Dating Mishap?

July 26, 2011

This week’s question is a good one. Let’s have a look:

Question: I met this beautiful young women online,at 1st i was Just messing around i never thought id actually meet this person or have feelings so i stretched the truth quite a bit job/height/living with my mom/fake pics ex.t trouble is that we have got pretty serious and she is gonna be very close to where i live for work next week and wants to come see me, i don’t want to lose her but idk how to fix this please HELP!!!!! and p.s don’t be all preachy and tell me i shouldn’t have lied you know you’ve done it

Answer: haha uh oh, i think you might be screwed. and not in the good way. you cant really fix anything other than tell her straight up that you were lying. maybe she’ll spare you the embarassment and want to meet up anyways. maybe she’ll instantly become unattracted to you. but either way, id get the truth out of the way before meeting up in person. that could get pretty awkward
