I agree that it is kind of like a job interview...and I handle myself pretty well in interviews...but dating, not so much...I tend to be quiet and shy when I'm nervous...or overcompensate by talking way too much. :( No wonder I'm single.

i have to agree....it's not fun....unless it's someone i'm really excited about - which is rare - and then i end up getting nervous and dorky.

When I was single I loved it.
And if I find myself single again, I will love it even more.

It can be excellent... the endless opportunities It's also fun to come up with different things to do rather than the pressurised one on one situations, there's plenty of fun stuff.

So I actually talked to the girl today because we are going on a date tomorrow..

She sounds kind of slow.. not much to talk about..

Not my type..

Do I go on the date anyways???

I don't want to be mean nor make any judgements, but I'm already not liking the idea of spending time with her.

Should I just entertain her and explain I don't think thinks would work?

I'm seriously going out with her just because.. Should be interesting.

dating is a predominantly North American thing.

all that getting to base shit as well... i have no idea how that works.. but over here if i had a date with a girl, which meant that i paid for a meal, drinks, whatever i'd be hoping for more than a quick grope of a boob... if she gave me a slight peck on the cheek then thats when calls would be unanswered, texts never replied to.. £70 for a night out and a peck on the cheek?!?!? i could have had 11 lapdances for that... and still have enough left for a kebab on the way home.

most couples over here meet during a night-out... usually they are both drunk... usually they do stuff to each other.

americans have the dating system... the UK and Ireland have the alcohol system...

yeah I know people who have too. That's how it worked in college-people just somehow paired up instantly. but I never had a boyfriend in college. I've never been able to figure out how you do it.

In the near future that might my feeling about dating...unless I don't get rid of my expectations towards them...
