it's a rarity that I date...I'm the "one of the guys" type, or a "sister" type to most people, so it doesn't really happen to me often, unfortunately. I have a ton of guy friends and I ususally hit that zone where being more than friends is usually not an option.
As for dating in the positive light, when it does happen, it is awesome, definitely a rush, and the thrill of dating is fun, however I think it's more than just a thrill. I love the feeling of being with someone you *hope* is interested back. However, do hate the player..and I dislike the game too even though I'm having to play it sometimes. What i really wish is guys would just say how they feel. Playing games and leading people on unintentionally or intentionally just sucks, especially since I am usually on the recieving end of it. But I hope for a great first date...even though they are like interviews. But i hope for that kiss at the end of the night, I'm such a hopeless romantic...here's to positive dating!
