Any Single Disney Men Out There?

[Cheshire Figment]

I think that I had chased Judy to be "just another girl friend" until she caught me. We realized we had so much in common that we married two years later, and it lasted 15 good years and one bad.

Good for you Sandy! When it is right... there is no other feeling in the world to top it!

Isn't it amazing how anyone else in your past no longer matters since you found the "one"?

So right, so right. All the bad experiences in my past, all the hurt, all the pain, all the disappointment - they seem like a lifetime ago. And ... I may not have met him on a Disney site, and he doesn't "love" Disney like I do, but he's willing to go with him as often as finances will allow. Ah, bliss.

Speaking of marriage, I read this earlier today. Being at the top end of their age range I guess it means I should be looking to get married soon.

I figure you just can't put time frames/age ranges on these things. If it's meant to be it's meant to be.

Hmmm...surprised ya aren't already.

Hello! Recently single, with a cancelled Disney trip...and ready to mingle!

Just wanted to introduce myself in what appears to be the most popular thread in this particular forum. You'll most likely be seeing me around these parts a bit more often...

Daisy!

I've read the entire thread myself. I found the article on why men don't want to commit very interesting. At age 43 I've never been married and have actually found it difficult to imagine myself married. It seems that I've always been better at being Mr. Left than at Mr. Right, and my choices in girlfriends have been abysmal. If I haven't already found her, I hope to find my princess while still on earth.

if each of us could find our perfect mate, Disneyfied or not on the first try? Some of us have never been married, some have been through it once, some twice and ??? so we know it's not common to make that perfect connection the first time. Thankfully most of us persist and keep looking.

We've had a few connections on the boards and a few broken/bruised hearts for both sexes, and a lot of friendships. I don't know how many of you are PMing each other or trading emails and information privately but I'm sure it goes on extensively and this is part of the exploration process

I can tell you that who ever I end up with to close out the final chapters of my life will have to at the very least accept my love of Disney and hopefully share it with me.

The key ingredient here is be honest and open and lose the expectations and the baggage as best you can.

Neighbor....I figure anyone from New England is a neighbor.


You are correct this is a very popular thread.

I hope you find plenty of friends...and maybe a new .

What would you plan for your first meeting?

What's the most romantic way to welcome him/her to your home town?

Edited to answer my own questions! I agree that WDW would be the best "first meeting" since our love for Disney is the main reason we found one another - but, IF that were not an option for whatever reason....

I'd pick up my Prince at Detroit Metro and depending on the time of day his flight arrives, take him to downtown Detroit for a romantic dinner at The Whitney. Then on to stay a night in the Detroit Ren Cen with glorious views of downtown Detroit, the Detroit River and Windsor, CA. That evening, we would walk to Greektown and take in the sights.

Then we'd go for a drive, taking in the mansions along the Detroit River on the way. They are decorated for Christmas and it's so beautiful!

Then, the next morning, off to see my home town. Walking the downtown area, going to the Lake and dinner would be made in my home (candles of course) so my Prince can see where I live. Then he will be able to picture me there when he leaves.

 

[DisneydaveCT]

My first choice would be a romantic meeting at WDW. Afterall, it is Disney that is brining us together.

If that is not possible, then I would find something nice to do in my home area.

As we get closer to the holidays, I might plan a weekend over in Newport, RI where the mansions of Newport are decorated for the holidays. And there are some romantic places to dine and get to know each other better.

Just a few thoughts....

The following is taken from The Orlando Sentinel on Saturday October 21, 2006 and might apply to some people here.

"Dear Abby: I am a 51-year-old woman dating a 39-year-old man. He is smart, funny, sexy, considerate and nice to me. I don’t see much of my relatives anymore because they were abusive, and it’s better if I don’t. However, I am worried about what they and my other friends will think.
Is the age difference too great to make a lasting relationship? What do I say to people who ask his age?
LONELY AND LOOKING FOR LIFE
Dear Lonely: As you’ve passed the half-century mark, the time has come to start living your own life and stop worrying about what other people “might” think. You and this man are adults. If you like each other and want to spend some time, or even a lifetime, together, it’s up to you. If anyone asks his age, tell them to ask him."

I think this makes a lot of sense. Any opinions?

Do you mean that at this point you would actually let him leave?????

 

[Goofy4Disney!]

I'm not totally sure WHAT I'd do on a first date. Since this dating thing is new to me,(widowed 2 1/2 years) i'm at a loss for ideas. I live in Boston, and there is plenty to do, but I'd have no clue where to start (that comes from being a terrible decision maker!!). So hopefully, the ball wouldn't be in my court for the first date! (subsequent dates would be a different story, by then I think the nervousness would subside and I could be creative )

A meeting at Disney sounds great! But wouldn't anybody be the least bit apprehensive meeting someone for the first time, wayyyyyyyyyyy out there (I act as if it's on the other side of the country, and truth be told, if I can fly to Vegas to meet folks, then I could certainly fly to Disney World ) But, my question is (and yes, I really do have one). What if the first meeting isn't all that great? Isn't a trip to Disney to meet one person, a little extreme for a first date? What if you don't "hit it off"?

Don't mind me, I'm rambling. I guess i'm just like a fish out of water, and outta the loop as to what goes on today. Ai yai yai, I gotta get out more!!

Look for some organizations that you may be eligible for and join one or two. Then go to their activities and see what happens. If you are eligible for Mensa, the Boston chapter is very active and it is a good way to meet new people. Many of the active members are single.
