[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Yet another Match.com date (Page 1 of 2)

She was exquisite
She was funny 
She reminded me just enough of my crazy ex-wife to give me pause. 
It had nothing to do with her personality. She's was very beautiful, intelligent and engaging. She had a smile and some facial features similar to my ex-wife and I couldn't stop thinking about during our dinner together. I actually had a nightmare last night envolving my ex. 
She sent a text today telling how much fun she had and she's looking forward to seeing me again. There was obviously some good chemistry going on, but I don't know if I can get past the similar looks. Am I being to hard on this woman? |

If you have good chemistry and find her attractive, what can another date hurt? Now if you start noticing personality "details" similar to your ex that you don't like, eject. |

I have to believe you had a pic of her before aggreing to go out with her....Sounds like you chose to go out with a woman who resembles your ex. In that case, it's not HER problem for you to "be hard on" her about......Sounds like you got "a hard on" for your ex-wife. Jus' sayin'. |

I think you need to look past that. Its not her fault that she has similar features.
Ill go out on a limb and say if you keep on seeing your ex in women your dating perhaps you need to take a break as your not completley over things. Or realize that you may be pre-disposed to women who look like her and make your peace with that. |

Am I being to hard on this woman? yes. your past is the past because it has passed. so get over the psycho that gives you nightmares, and be excited about this new opportunity. if you look hard enough, there will be some reminder of your ex in ANY woman. that is, IF you are looking for a reminder. text her back dude, you won't regret it. |

If you can't decouple the person from their looks, then the problem is on your end. Stop dating unless you get your head on straight. Next thing you know, some woman that looks nothing like your ex will "remind me of my ex's mannerisms" and cause you to bail. I've been out with 21 women so far (in two years) and and dated one for 8 months. Emotionally I'm good to go. The issue for me is that my ex is so contentious when I pick up my kiddos every other week that it's kind of hard not to shiver when I think about her. |

The most interesting thing about this comment is my ex and the woman I went on the date with are both tall slender well endowed blonds. I've always been partial to short slender brunettes |

You have to look past that............she obviously isnt your ex-wife, so be open minded and let it play out...........dont think about the ex, think about this new lady and how much fun you are having. The past is the past, so let it stay there..........go forward!

I'd say give her a chance perhaps it will work out - good luck to you |

Hey Numb nuts...
Please wipe the sand out of your vagina and text the hot chick back that you want to see her again. WTF is wrong with you? 
"Ohhh ohh... I dunno... she... she... sorta reminds me of my ex..... I think I may have some latent emotions left over from...." SHUT THE FUCK UP YA JACKWAGON! If I could reach through the internetz I'd slap you on the back of your head.

I've always been partial to short slender brunettes Are you gay? No seriously, I think this is a more pertainant question then anything regarding your ex. Tall blonde with huge boobs... yea I could see why that would cause you some confusion and doubt. |

I just answered her text and told her I'd give a call this evening. I'll keep you posted on how the next date goes.
I don't think it would be prudent to post pics of the date since we're not really "hooked up" yet. I deleted all of the pics of the ex from my hard drive, but here's a video of her SHOOTING MY COMMANDO |

This is your problem, move past it and date the woman.
Speaking from experience, I am 55 now, there are very few people that I would want to spend time with. What I am saying is that you should not pass someone up just becasue she reminds you of your ex, get over it. Also if anyone should comment on that, just say that you did not notice. |
