Things went excellent. She came over for dinner for Thurs. Even though it was only dinner and some chatting (nothing happen). Felt like there are some chemistry. On the other hand feel like really rusty talking to girls. Maybe I just have been in my man cave for so long I don't really much to say. Time to go out more often to see what's going on in Van. Still not sure when to go our trip yet since she have to see if her vacation is approve next week. I tease her by saying I got new swimwear for the trip lol. She gussed I got the speedo style >< I was like nope and she seem disappointed or maybe she was just playing......

Last year my friend came back from Calgary and they know more hip food places to visit than I do......

bastards...Jugo juice it is.

You can find the founder of the whole thing @ the Richmond Centre location usually. Bigger guy, can't miss him. I believe he franchises them out and the sale of the Aberdeen location was like $100k PogChamp

a fraction of the price of a Timmy's
:D

AW millennial franchise program LOL

slave for them for a year and then fork out 250k


bbt, you need to sell atleast 150-200 drinks per day to break even.

I'd say work at a bbt place and just steal recipes etc and start your own. Kinda pointless to franchise in the boonies.

Wow, everybody is looking opening a business/new company.
I too am exploring the idea of a catering business down the line (side business, I will still be at my regular job). But maybe in like 5-10 years lol. I need a lot more experience, I've only just started

So I (finally) met this girl that ticks all the qualifiers - hard requirements, but some boxes that could be an issue in the future are left unchecked. Reason why I'm so specific on requirements and really who I want in my life, is because I don't want another toxic, soul sucking relationship.

While everything is seemingly perfect, she kind of reminds of my ex, and that's what the qualifiers are there to prevent - another repeat. But that made me think, what if all my qualifiers essentially represent my ex, just without all the bullshit. What if this person is basically the same person, but just a lot better? Or what if down the road, they're the same person.

Oh yeah, this girl knows my ex. Rip. Also, I should probably quit blazing, since it evidently makes me overthink.

I also think that if I do become serious with her, I'm gonna fall really hard. Yikes.

(that sounded really sensitive like im some kind of pussy LOL)

Pussy.

Ahhhh... so good to be young...

(Not sure if I should miss those days, or whether I should be glad they're over and done with... )
:considered:

Nothing wrong with that. IMO after every failed relationship we learn a little more of what we want in a future gf, and what we don't want. Sometimes there's more of one over the other. I'd be lying if I said my current GF doesn't have the better qualities that my exes had but without the bullshit.

Only one way to find out. See where it goes. If you start noticing all the bad traits of your ex, ejecto seato cuz!

i might've screwed up when this cute Irish lady in her early 20's asked me "So what are you up too during the weekend?" after hitting it off in a conversation

the crazy part is she has a family already...So maybe bullet dodged?.

no action jackson,whatever,stop thinking with my dick.

Please enlighten us with what would you have said... And what did you actually say?

So we are officially done.

I got some clarification on why she think I was just treating her as a fwb. We did couple stuff went out a lot especially during the beginning of our relationship. She had sense our incompatibility early on. She wanted to break it off a few time. I would always talk her into giving it another go and than we would end up in bed again and the sex would make her stay. This went on a few times until 3 days ago she finally flip the switch. Broke up with me by text and refuse to pick up my call so she won’t fall back into the same cycle.

I guess I was being oblivious to what going on. We are SUPER compatible in bed and I let that override everything else that is wrong.

Well and I guess I am back to square one. Single again.

This girl messaged me online last Sunday. Been messaging one message a day for a few days and I asked her to meet up and she said busy this long weekend. Then I asked when she is available, tells me next week or the week after.

Thinking wtf? I can't imagine someone being that busy to not even be able to make say 1 hour of their time to meet up...

Gonna lay low and not reply for awhile. If one wants to chit chat online, that's what their friends are for. Not going to waste time chit chat online.

She's probably just bored and needed someone to talk to :concentrate:.

If she was interested she'd try her best to make time

Agreed. Gonna call her out on it later. Forgot to mention she said "Maybe next week or week after".

Went on a date with her, second date is tomorrow. Went pretty well, but we don't talk about 2nd date topics. We've talked so much we're basically past all the #x date topics. So we're just stuck in a limbo, where it's too soon to date, but we've already gotten to know each other.

This always happens to me LOL I talk too much. I hate the "what are we" phase.

Also, what's the difference between seeing each other, dating exclusively, and relationship?

Especially if both of us aren't into open relationships, so exclusivity is a given. But does that mean we're committed to each other?

Anyways don't think the girl wants to go on a trip what whatever.

Is weird I have been randomly chatting with this woman 3 years older than me. We seem to have a ton of topics and have dinner and such. Maybe because she is older than me things just happens without us trying (no we didn't have sex or anything). It felt so naturally to do things with her. She have a son 5 years old (I know from the beginning because we were friends and didn't really care) she is divorce right after she give birth and haven't dated anyone since then.

Fast forward today. she wanted to take her son to see the circus at Surrey but didn't know where so I went with her. Kinda of weird I know but it actually felt pretty natural I play with her son. We chatted a bit about dating and such and feels like we are falling for each other.

Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing......

Seeing each other means it's casual/you can both date other people. Dating exclusively means just you two so no condom you prob go to friend events together and shit. Relationship you guys have had a talk and refer to each other freely as bf/gf, meet each other families etc. Everyone can have different views though.

When I was dating it was all pretty much the same tbh lol. I introduced guys to my parents/family pretty freely cuz idgaf lol and my parents would rather know who im spending time with in case something happens like an accident or smth like that.

Id say never assume anything when dating, always have clear honest conversations about what you are so there is no confusion from the get go. When you arent clear, youre setting either yourself or that person up to get hurt in the long run. Sometimes its uncomfortable depending on which way its going but thats just part of dating as an adult.

Theres nothing wrong with getting clarity on a situation youre in. A woman would rather you ask her what her expectations are than for you to play games. Immature/insecure people who shouldnt be dating play games.

it's called DTR: Define the Relationship.

It's good. Usually happens after a few weeks of dating.

whatever the terms are, just make sure you use the word EXCLUSIVE.

Dating, seeing each other, bf/gf, going out are ALL just words. You need to set the stage and say I prefer to us to be exclusive or else he/she might be still sleeping with someone else on the side.

Thanks guys :) we actually kind of touched on the subject before we started going out on dates/seeing each other, since we've been talking for about over a month now. And neither of us like to sleep around or see two people at one time. (I personally did that once, and that was a shit show LOL). She says she doesn't do open relationships, so does that automatically make us exclusive? Aka i shouldn't go be an asshole and see other girls (not like that would happen anyway)?

Through hard and soft requirements, I've eliminated playing games. I have no tolerance for it, yet the whatever im in, seems boring without games. Yikes.

After our first date (Friday), she did mention that she'd like to hang out more, instead of going on dates, because she doesn't want date nights to feel like every other night. But at the same time, she previously mentioned that if it's a date, it has to be specified? I'm confused. And she also mentioned that we're not seeing each other, but we kind of are.

Sounds like you havnt seal the deal yet and done the deeds. She is purposely being ambiguous because well your relationship right now is ambiguous.
