Triathlon Dating Thread Ver 2.0 (Page 5)

I'm reading this book now actually, and have to admit it makes a lot of sense and its not a bunch of touchy-feely b.s. that you might think a book like this would be filled with. 

edit....oh, wait....physical touch is one of the 5 languages so I guess there is some of that in there LOL

I have been told by a few of my friends to read it. I don't know what one it is but I guess I value time with people and that is my language. I think I'll go buy the book this week.

anyone else get saddled with the extra responsibilities b/c they don't have a "family'?  That keeps happening to me. Like I get to go for 3 days to camp with my 6th graders b/c I'm one of two teachers without a family. 

No wonder I don't have time to go out on dates!  That is just a problem I seem to keep happening. Oh just ask Amy, she doesn't have any responsibilities. 

So, Singles, what's the status? How is your dating training plan coming along?

And then  you just seem selfish if you say no, I want to go on a bike ride.  You have the others with children saying well, I have to take jimmy to his psychiatrist and Danny to his orthodontic appt.

Yeah, its a no win situation.  I look like a bad team player.  Its not like its my choice not to have kids.

I'd be willing to relinquish SOME control in that situation. Or we could take turns, I'm open to trying new recipes

While I don't think its a requirement for them to be a triathlete, they need something to be passionate about.  I had one boyfriend that just had nothing he did. Treated me well and everything, but didn't get the fact when I said I "had" to do something.  Its because I really rea lly wanted to.  He always thought i was choosing my bike or horse over him. 

So, Singles, what's the status? How is your dating training plan coming along?

As an aside, I am confused by the thread title.

1. Are you  looking to date only triathletes (but maybe you're not a triathlete)? No
2. Or, are you triathletes looking for dates with those outside the triathlon tribe? Possibly
3. Or, are you triathletes seeking to date only triathletes? Not exactly
4. Doesn't it seem a little redundant to specify Triathlon on a triathlon board? Maybe just Singles Dating Thread for release 3.0? I think the Singles part makes more sense, specificity wise, than the Triathlon part. Good point

Carry on, Singles (triathletes or not). And good luck out there!

My answers are above in blue, bold italics.  

Haha, if all the answers are no or not sure, then why are you here? What are you looking for?

Woo hoo - Muskrat has a date this weekend.  She is not a tri-athlete, likes to run, but only when she has "a good run" - otherwise she hates it.    Believe it or not, I met her on muckfatch.com. 

She is adventurous - and likes my idea of paintballing for our first date.  I have not gone paintballing in 20 years but bought a groupon, solely for the purpose of a unique first date.  

When I asked her she said I "get the award for the most outside the box initial meet and greet!"

+1 for Casey - willing to try new things.

I love to cook. I'm more comfortable doing the cooking than having someone cook for me. Must be a type-A control thing. Or maybe it's the mental justification to drink wine while cooking.

 

The best is when you can cook together. Just sayin.

I'd be willing to relinquish SOME control in that situation. Or we could take turns, I'm open to trying new recipes

So. Much. Double-entendre.....

Huh, whatever do you mean? I'm a triathlete, I'm always hungry!

Especially carbs. Love Italian food, especially stuff like pasta and pizza

Woo hoo - Muskrat has a date this weekend.
