Any Single Disney Men Out There?

[DisneydaveCT]

You never know. I had posted on another website, which wasn't a Disney or even a dating site. But I think in my profile I said I was single. I got a message from a very sweet guy and from there we started talking by phone and email. That lead to our first date. He is 12 years younger than me and I thought there was no way this could go anywhere, but I feel like I have met my soul mate. Some may say I'm crazy but the connection we share is beyond amazing and very difficult to put into words. Even though we have only been dating two months I know he loves me dearly and I love him just as much.

Congrats Chell,

You are a great example of what I posted last month on this thread.

Both men and women need to be open to meeting that Disney Prince or Princess whether they are older or younger than you, and not worry about the age difference or the physical distance initially between you two. What is important is that you are attracted to that person and that they share your values, your hopes and your dreams (Disney or otherwise).

So CinRell listen to your friends, don't give up hope. One of your friends, one of your fellow Dis'ers might be your Disney Prince.


As far as MBF's belief that this is not a dating site, he is correct if you accept the common definition of a dating site. I on the other hand believe that true love develops out of friendship, and if I make a friend here who later becomes my Disney Princess, all the better. And I don't think you can put a timetable on love, or wait until both are comfortable to say "I Love You." When you feel the time is right then share that with your Disney Prince or Princess. Who knows they might be afraid to share the sentiment with you until you tell them first.

Just some thoughts before coffee and work...

Not too long ago I was seeing a nice man. After 2 dates he started telling me how he was looking for his soulmate (after only having been divorced a short time) he wanted me to "move in with him" and he had already "told his MOM about me."It scared the heck out of me and I broke it off with him quickly. I'm the kind of person who prefers to know a person for quite some time and develop a true friendship before even thinking of saying we are in a relationship much less allow the "L" word to come into play...online "dating" doesn't let you really get a true picture or feeling about the person you are "typing" to...this said ..I'm enjoying the threads and taking everything said with a grain of salt....have fun and enjoy but don't take things too serious until you have been together as friends IN PERSON for a while...can we say reality 101????

As I said before and before and before....not every two people who date are meant to be together. I do agree that age shouldn't matter, but there are limitations. It gives me the creepers when I see a 26 yo teacher on TV being tried for getting involved with a 14 yo. But take that twenty years in the future and a 46 yo dating a 34 yo is acceptable. I guess once BOTH people are of legal age, then it shouldn't matter.

As dj said....it takes time to get to know another person. Can there be love at first site? Maybe, but it's usually simply physical attraction. Chances are good it's not love. True love is built over time and involves TWO people giving 100%. Love is NOT a 50/50 thing. If you are only giving half of yourself then who is getting the other half?

True love lasts. It endures all those old fashioned covenants that so many people want to eliminate from vows. Since it is built on a solid base, rough seas won't topple it. Ill winds won't blow it down. Since it has a fire all it's own, then it survives a malstorm of onslaughts.

As to the 'L' word....more potential relationships have been scuttled by one or the other person blurting it out way too soon in the relationship. I've had women tell me they loved me after one date. Sheesh....I KNOW I'm not all that.

If there is anyone on this thread who has not been burned at one point in time, then God bless you and the water you walk on. For the rest of us, we move on, try to leave the baggage on the side of the tracks and continue lifes journey.

For some, there is a prince or princess in our future. Me, I'd rather have a wench that loves me for who I am, loves life for what it has to offer and pursues dreams the two can share even after we are both in wheel chairs.

And now...back to our regularly scheduled program...

Why doesn't Disney play to romance? It took them forever to get the Wedding thingy going and even when they did, it was to garner more dollars from people already enraptured with Disney. They really don't market it as a honeymoon destination, but I can't imagine spending my next one anywhere else. They need a few more restaurants geared toward adults with Disney themes and charm, but no characters mugging you while you eat.

I miss the Empress room, Steerman's Quarters and Fishermans Deck. They were all great places to eat. Papetee' Bay Verandah was always one of my favorites but it's long gone....it was super romantic..

Dr. Phill rides again!

Thanks guys... and dj I agree.. but I'd been talking to this person for MONTHS... not only on here.. with plans to visit soon. Ah well.. I am not the type to open up easily to people at all and I felt I did with him but.. c'est la vie...

I HAVE made great friends here and would like to continue doing so... I just feel dumb for telling people I wasn't interested because of him.. while he was off meeting others.

I always find guys that "would never betray me" and they always do. It gets rather frustrating.

I need someone who can understand my work schedule and If I get a bit quiet on here for a few days doesn't assume it's "over"...

Here's a question, it seems that a good number of us go to the World solo, has anyone ever met another solo person there?

I am kind of a chatty person (some would say that I would talk to a wrong number), I will talk with people waiting inline for things, and have never actually come across anyone there alone.

 

[DisneydaveCT]

MBF, I am surprised that my post led you to comment about dating someone underage. My post never contemplated that at all.

Given the average age of most posters here, in the 30-50 range, I was talking about how over time people change their beliefs about age and dating. When you are in your twenties, you want someone within a couple of years of your age. As you grow more experienced (not older...LOL), then you begin to recognize that an age difference of 5-10 years either way may not be a reason not to pursue a dating realtionship with someone you find attractive. What is important is the sharing of common values, morals, dreams, and goals.

At no time was I suggesting an adult person date an underage person.

It's like you read my mind djblu883. Chatting with someone on the internet just isn't the same as being face to face. It's bridging the gap between online and offline that seems to be the key. How else can someone know what you are really like.

Hi All!! I’ve been lurking around this thread for a couple weeks now and decided it was time to say HELLO!! I am a 39 year old single mom of one living in NE Ohio. I went to WDW for the first time when my DD was 5. Tink must have showered me with a lot of pixie dust because I have been hooked ever since. Unfortunately, most of my friends and family do not share my enthusiasm. Don’t get me wrong, they all like it, but they just don’t love it.

It would be great to make some new friends who share the same interest. Thanks and have a great day!!

Glad you decided to come out of the bushes .

Dave,

It wasn't my intention to make that an issue. My post basically says that as you get older age differences become a moot point but it creeps me out when older poeple go after young people who haven't even gotten out of high school. Kids haven't matured enough to have a clue what love is.....for that matter....a lot of adults haven't a clue what love is. THAT was my point.

Is there a full moon out there??

Kaitlin! Welcome.. I'm in cleveland

 

[mickeysbestfriend]

I'm betting some of the newbies are having second doubts about joining this thread..

Try to read the entire message that is posted and reply to the whole thing rather than pick out a word or phrase that you may misconstrue the meaning or intention of. The last thing we need in here is people flaming other people and getting the thread shut down because of misunderstandings.

Nuf said?

 

[katydidbug1]

I'm a newbie to this board, but not to others...I take most things with a grain of salt. At some point on any kind of board there will be missunderstandings, hurt feelings, and the ever popular trolls. We all have to pick and choose what to read and what to take seriously.

Not much will scare me away. They grow us pretty tough up here in Boston.

I'm in Kent, actually just south of Kent in the little town of Brimfield. We have Kent Mailing address.

I know what you mean, it's hard for me to diet any time of the year but I am working on it. Trying to skinny up for a WDW trip in January (hopefully)
