Here are some more tips for guys from a woman that has been on a few BAD dates: 

1.  Don't blow your nose at the table during dinner and proceed to dig in your nose.  Excuse yourself from the table and take care of it in the men's room.  Also belching and passing gas at the table is RUDE. 

2.  Have a plan when you pick up your date.  Don't expect your date to choose the restaurant and movie...show that you put some thought into it.  It makes you look like you could care less....and also, on a Friday or Saturday night, reservations are usually required.   

3.  Don't talk endlessly about your ex and the great sex you had daily.  I could care less. 

4.  Have breath mints or gum handy - please..... 

5.  Don't be a cheapskate...tip the waiter.   

6.  Know something about your kids...once went out with a guy that had no idea how old his kids were!  How detached from life do you have to be not to know how old your kids are? 

7.  Don't pull over on the road and accost your date by showing how good of a kisser you are....and if you are going to kiss....make sure your breath doesn't stink..... 

8.  Don't make up stories about the credit card company sending you and new card and you throwing it away...it's a renewal....meaning that you throw the OLD card awayl   

9.  Don't talk about mama all night. 

10.  Don't start a date out by saying that you aren't ready for a relationship...if that's the case...STAY HOME.  Don't go out until you are ready...   

It's hard out there ladies.  Single for five years and counting.... 

Wow where do you live. LOL You sound like the perfect guy.  I am in the same age group as you and yes I have had the same bad dates.  It's very difficult to find the chemistry.  I find many great friends because the chemistry or attraction isn't there.  I'm like you I'm not picky I just need to have all of the keys elements to be present, good communication, great sence of humor, active and outgoing, great socializer.  Introverts need not apply.  Which seems to be all I attract.

Dr. Phil, 

I watched both shows on Love Smart. 

You based these shows on the woman's side of the story. 

When is it the guy's turn to learn the ropes on finding Ms. Right? 

I have been a single dad for 9 years.  For the most part I have been out of the dating loop. 

Now that the kids are older it's my turn to get out there and find Ms. Right.  Where do I begin?
