Any Single Disney Men Out There?

[Gina]

I'm still waiting... and honestly, losing hope. But I'm about to turn 40 and I know I will never settle again, so I guess I need to resign myself to ending up as the "crazy old Disney lady" or something. LOL

Gina,

Maybe we should start a "Crazy old Disney Lady" club. Sort of like the "Red Hat Ladies" but we will wear mouse ears. I turned 39 last month and I also will never settle again.

How do you ladies define settling? Reading your posts as a 46 y.o. male does not give me hope of finding a Disney Princess.

As many of you know (and are probably sick of hearing about) I have met my Disney Prince through these boards. We just returned last week from our first WDW vacation.

After many months of a LDR....and many FF miles....He is leaving his job of 11 years, his home and family, to move here with me!!!

It has been a very tough couple of years for me and a long road to the person I am today....I am so lucky to find someone who not only accepts my son but truly enjoys him.....someone who loves me completely and unconditionally and someone who is as much of a disney freak as I am!!

Be patient kids....in can happen. And when it does it is worth the wait!

That's great news! How about a picture of the lucky couple? Maybe there's hope for the rest of all us Disney "fair maidens"!

NEVER settle..You can do bad all by yourself.

And THEY are a REALLY Cute Family all together!!!

She's right.....be patient....just get to know other Disney folks just for the sake of knowing someone else that appreciates it like you do.




Tracey, her son, and her Honey are REALLY neat people!!!



And DD---I was trying to get the topic back to Disney....some folks are more comfy talking about a mutual interest---esp newbies.

Greetings from Disney World

Been here for 2 days so far and yesterday it rained and so far this morning its raining again.

Time to get my poncho on and head to a park....

 

[kaitlin-n-mom]

I do not want to be with someone just for the sake of not being alone. I want someone who has reached the same place as me in life. I find it very hard to find a prince who shares the same interests as me and enjoys doing the same things. Does that make sense Dave??

Good question. I am about your age and yes, still believe there is a Prince out there somewhere just for me, and a Princess for you!

I define "settling" as just taking anyone that comes along just for the sake of companionship. I heard a line in a movie once that makes sense to me . . . "I'd rather be without someone for the right reason than be with someone for the wrong". I would rather not "settle" and have lots of friends than make excuses for an individual (his lack of respect for me, etc.) and being "stuck" in a situation where I am miserable.

One example of "settling" would be to find a NON-Disney person, just to be attached....

Something YOU yourself said would NOT work....so why is it any different when we say it?

 

[katydidbug1]

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am looking for someone who will me for me, love my and like my family.

If I could find that, I would settle for someone who likes Disney, understands my need to go there at least once a year (min) and can deal with all my disney stuff (which there is a lot of)...to me this is secondary to what I stated above, while a like/love of disney is important to me, I wouldnt' discount somone just because they only like Disney...or even someone who has never been or doesn't know much about it...we were all that person once.

WDW, you are correct that I have joined others in stating that finding a Disney Princess is important in my search for a LTR. If it takes a long time to find that Disney Princess, so be it.

The purpose of my questions was to stimulate a discussion, not to question anyone's personal belief. We all have our own hopes, dreams, and desires, so why not share them...you may find someone who shares your thoughts as well.

As far as the newbies, this thread was started with a question from a single Disney Princess about the possibility of finding a single Disney Prince. So after 2,100 plus posts why not ask the question again to show the newbies that there are a lot of people who share their desire to find a Disney Prince or Princess?

I'm not a big poster on these boards, but I thought I'd chip in here. I met my princess on a board very much like this one just over a year ago. Since then, we've been to WDW 3 times, taken an Alaska cruise, been to South Beach, beautiful Maine, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. She has been up to meet my family and I've spent many weekends with her at her home in Maryland. We're planning a Virginia trip in October, another WDW December trip (can't miss MVMCP) and yet another Alaska cruise next June. We're engaged now and looking forward to our lives together. As Walt said, "It all started with a mouse," it all started for us with a single posting. Remember the words of the great philosopher Tug McGraw, "You Gotta Believe."

Thanks baby that was sweet. But just to set the record straight. I'm not "leaving" anything behind, I'm just "arriving" to where I want and need to be....with you.

And yeah, I guess I do qualify as a bit of a Disney freak....

I also believe in not settling, but if you put too many restrictions on who you are looking you may be limiting your chances of finding anyone. Nobody is perfect. I have created a fairly general list (not written just in my head ) of things that I value and desire in another person. I don't expect to find someone with all of those values, but if they meet the major ones then I'm willing to take a chance.

Kaitlin and Debbie nailed it -- that's my definition of "settling" too. I believe very much that two people should have different interests... something to share with each other. But if you don't have the important things in common -- ideals, goals, upbringing, morals, etc. -- then it's a recipe for disaster. And to me, all things Disney is a very important love of mine -- and never again will I be with someone who rolls their eyes at something I love so much.

Kaitlin, we *should* start our own club! But can we let crazy old Disney guys in too?

That is SO sweet... *sighs happily* I do love love stories.

I am not saying anything bad to you....just wondering why the "not settling" issue would change your hope factor...

I, too was trying to stimulate the conversation back to our original topic...

This board worked for me, We found each other and are very happy....I am wishing others can do the same!

 

[beansmom]

slap, that is a lovely post.

I have met many wonderful people on line...including the love of my life. Not a DIS'er but the one, nonetheless...of course, I'm still hoping to bring him over to the 'dark side'. LOL.

Congrats to you and tmli...I wish you all the best.

A bit??

I guess this would be the definition of not settling ladies!!
