		<description><![CDATA[I think that it&#039;s generally a placeholder type deal as you say. I like meeting new friends myself, however sometimes that crosses the lines to being sexual friends. Then the discussions happen about what it means, are we just friends, often times I just simply feel that way. After a month or so you may start to see that the person is probably not on the same wavelength as to what the friendship is which is when it gets complicated and you cut ties.

I&#039;ve been on both sides of the fence myself. I think sometimes you think what&#039;s best for yourself and not always what&#039;s best for someone else.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tough call – I have been in similar situations in the past. I don’t
think it’s always as black and white as he is good or bad in bed.
Sometimes things get a little better once you get to know each other
and feel more comfortable in each other’s presence. After all, you are
fresh off from being complete strangers to each other. I would give
this douche turned nice guy a few more kicks at your can before
completely dismissing him. Maybe this tough guy is actually a bit of a
softie (no, not down there) and got a little bit of stage fright.
Perhaps he was thinking “I didn’t think this hot girl would actually
sleep with me…..shit now what do I do!?”

Give little (let’s hope not) Nicholas a chance at pleasuring you once
more. Don’t put all the responsibility on him though, as I think you
have a duty to tell him what you like and how you want him to do things.
Maybe his last sexual partner was really into him fumbling around in
her nether region, and he assumes you like it as well? Who knows?
Making your demands at this stage of the game might be a little
awkward. This is why, without hesitation, I will say sex is better
with a long term partner than it is with a new partner. Once you know
each other well, you’ll both feel better about shouting out commands in the
bedroom, and with any luck, that will lead to both of you being
satisfied.

With all that being said, douchebag Nick might just be a dud in the
sack. I have tried dating one of these types myself. She was nice,
fun, and pretty……but, she was like a fish out of water in the
bedroom. I kept telling myself that I would be a total jerk for
breaking up with this pretty, smart, and successful girl, only because
she was as timid as a lamb under the sheets. After months of sexual
frustration, I realized something I had known from the start – a
healthy sexual relationship is just as important as any other aspect
of a relationship. Despite my best efforts at bedroom communication,
this was just not going to happen. I knew things would never get better, and
I was wasting my time. It was bye bye to the great 20-something-year-old girl who made Steve Carell’s version of a 40-year-old virgin look like a pro in the sack.

My best advice would be to give yourself a chance to get to know this
stud before classifying him a dud. Don’t give it too much time
though. If, after your best attempts to both get to know and instruct
him, you find yourself fantasizing more about masturbating than you do
about getting manhandled by this fine piece of meat, kick him to the
curb. Don’t waste your time – by facing the cold hard truth (and not acting
like a pussy like I did), you’ll both be better off in the end.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the comments boys.
Chris I gotta say you come off a little creepy with those responses, but you were bang on with moving on to the next guy.  Will write more detail this week.

John I gotta say that Chris gets it right again in his comment to you.  If we are interested, we won&#039;t mind you approaching.  But really the bottom line is, if you want to approach me, or any girl, do it.  So what if we aren&#039;t interested.  All you&#039;ve invested is a few side long looks and a few words with a stranger who is completely unimportant in your life.

		<description><![CDATA[John,

I hear ya man. Approaching a woman today has to be the hardest thing to do.  If you listen to your female friends they all have bad stories about being approached in X location, in in Y manner.  When you hear enough stories like that you eventually are at a loss of when is safe and where is ok to approach a woman.  

I think the real answer is they will only accept you approaching them if they like you back.  Then it won&#039;t matter.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Your commets are a big reason why I don&#039;t like approaching women at the gym, or anywhere really.

I hope this guy at least texted or called to advise he would be late. I know parking is sometimes hard to find downtown, but an hour? Really? 

I do have something better for you to do - how about another blog post? I think your time would be better spent that way. :)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ummmmmm that&#039;s a rather open ended question.  I mean I could be snarky/easy and say &quot;me&quot;  or I could be friendly and say &quot;I&#039;m always available for a coffee or bite and a great chat&quot;  or a jerk and say &quot;why don&#039;t you create your own something to do instead of depending on some guy&quot;  or some other cliche answer. 

Either way the guy sounds like a bit of a nob.  I&#039;d say onto the next one.]]></description>
