Search Results: ideal date

I started dating a lady in late October. The first date was a dinner date and it lasted for 3 hours because we both enjoyed the conversation so much. The next few dates were longer dates; we spent much time in conversation while we enjoyed different activities. I was struck by her sincerity and her apparent transparency. She spoke from her heart and I had no reason to not trust whatever she told me.

We then had a break of a few weeks because of Thanksgiving and I had the flu. We talked on the phone and everything seemed good. I thought that she and I had potential for a long term relationship: we had a mutual physical attraction, we had many common beliefs, values, and interests, and we both expressed a desire to find a partner for a LTR.

I called this morning to plan our date for this afternoon/evening. She said that she reviewed my Facebook page last night, realized that I am politically conservative, and that a relationship between us could never work so she needed to say goodbye. I was a bit stunned but, of course, if that is what she has decided, there is no point in arguing about it, is there?

I have dated ladies who held differing political views and never had it become much of a problem. I don't need a partner to agree with everything I say and I would not assume that they are "wrong" or a "bad person" because they don't embrace the same political ideals. I dated a liberal woman for two years and we got along quite well.
