I like to think of myself as a “good dater” – I converse easily (with a wall, if need be), am easy-going, and can survive any awkward situation I’m thrown into (recently, these are becoming my norm). Reflecting upon my dating history, I see a pattern with my date acceptances: I accept because I don’t know how to say no, or I rationalize, “Hey! Even if this doesn’t work out, I will get a new…

awh..sound like a good list…too bad he’s taken already.
Meddy, girl, post that list on an OkCupid profile, my super lovely and foxy friend “M” is also 5’10 & has the same height requirement that you have. She met an amazing psych professor last year on OkC & they just eloped last week! I sound like a commercial. But I am serious, from one formerly romantically struggling Greenpoint lady to another, try it! Also, you may eventually meet the right guy at a friends wedding or at a World Cup party or whatever, but online dating isn’t so bad, especially when you get to know the language and what to look for and avoid.
