After the last date, I was kind of skeptical, of meeting anyone else on the internet. I told myself that the next time would be different. I was right it was.

Meet Mr. "I'm in Love with you", and we will call him "Danny". He had a sweet face, at least I thought so by the way he looked in his picture. He sounded perfect. Danny explained to me that he worked for a major money transport security service. I thought "Wow" a man in uniform. How hot and sexy, plus he had those handcuffs, even better, I thought.

Danny had an accent, he was from the South, and I thought it was sexy. We communicated over the phone for over a two week period before we met. He started using text messages and calling me from work. It seems so romantic to me. He then called me about two days before we met and said he needed to talk to me. He had this serious tone about him. So I asked him. "What's up? " Danny explained to me that over the two week period since we had started talking that he had developed feelings for me. "I'm in love with you", Danny said. I had red flags going up everywhere. I of course ignored them. Bad move let me tell you.

We met on Friday night. When he picked me up he had music blaring from inside his car. I couldn't hear myself think. I looked over at him and he was hiding his face. He wouldn't look directly at me. I said, "Hello" to him and he flung his c.d. case at me and told me to pick something out to listen to. The whole way to dinner he drove about 25 miles an hour. Cars we're beeping at us, he flung his arm out the window as if to motion for them to go around us. Ladies, let me stop this story for a minute. When you have Red Flag warnings going on in your head, trust your instinct. We Woman are notorious for not listening to our gut instincts and blowing it off, as though it doesn't matter.

SINGLE MOMS BEWARE: If he seems too good to be true, he probably is!

and he can take advantage of me. Boy, is he wrong. I'm neither naive nor dumb and one day he is going to wake up to find that his whole world has been turned upside down.

I wish I had paid attention to all the "red flags" before I got married! Stupid me! We've been married four months and he has tried to take over as my girls' father; he gets angry if they call me when they're at their dad's and he doesn't get to talk to them. And it's not because he wants to talk to them! He wants them to talk to him so that my ex-husband will think they like him more. That's the first way he shows his immaturity. Another is that he e-mails and texts his ex-girlfriends behind my back, thinking I'm too stupid to find out, and blatantly gawks at other girls right in front of me and denies any wrongdoing. He gets violently angry when I call him on any of those things, calling me a whore and a bitch right in front of my children. He says I am a psycho and "no wonder" I am divorced from my first husband. I'm the third in a series of single mothers that he's dated, and it's almost like he preyed on me thinking that I was some naive single mother....(con't)

I think men are looking for their Queen in white armour to rescue them. Love your understated sense of humor.

It's baboons like that who give men a bad name with the ladies. Guys, take it from another man: if you lie about something, women WILL find out, then you'll be sleeping in that little building in the back yard with the name "Fido" over the door if you're married. If you're dating (or trying to date) and you lie, Lefty will become your best friend.

I have gone that route and it is hard to find a Prince. I have warts on my lips from so many toads. Good read.
