Personally I think you look just as fancy shmancy as you need to in that black asshugging dress already. :D

That said, I don't know what people will think of someone wearing a black dress to a wedding. lol

As for the ones you've linked, I really think you'll look amazing in 2 middle dresses, the tight blue or the green. I personally am not a big fan of red.

Aaaaw I love red!

I think it could definitely work with her looks. From the picture I'm seeing in her Av, she has the pale skin color to pull it off, instead of looking a little odd being really tanned and rocking bright red.

I definitely think you can pull it off, but go with the one you genuinely want. That alone will make you even more attractive, as you'll feel comfortable and sexy in it :)

Yeah red works for me lol. I'll think about it. I also have that blue one shoulder dress...
 
I'm kind of hoping she models whatever options she's looking at once she has them. Then the winner!
 
I think that last dress would look great on you but the red may a little too much.
 
It makes me sad all the guys at the bike shop are taken. I spend so much time here, it'd be almost too easy :/

That might be the case, but you want someone who is a bit different. It'll give you more talking points, and you two can try the things you each love while experiencing something new. Imagine this....If you dated someone from the bike shop and the did the same things as you, what would you two do to experience something new?

Imagine you were dating someone who was into the outdoors. Camping, hiking, fishing, nature stuff would be what he did, and what you did would be new to him, and vice versa.


EDIT: i'm not saying be totally different, but try someone outside of the norm for you. It will be fun, and could help you find something you really enjoy while building a relationship :)

I was in at the bike shop here riding the regular trainer at 5:15 this morning. Want to move west a few states? hehe

Here's the thing: I've dated the spectrum. The most recent was a pure cyclist. He felt we didn't have enough in common. Which was weird bc we both had degrees in the arts, rode bikes, big on family, similar music/tv/movie tastes. Guy before him we literally had nothing in common (and did not end well) before that was a body builder/ex marine. Some common ground, but again didn't end well.

What I find attractive is ambition. Is drive. Being into fitness. And frankly the two generally go hand in hand. And I need some one who will get what I'm going through training wise. I love when some one had varying interests, but there for me has to be big overlay, especially athletically.

Basically I want to date my own kind I've realized.

I don't think there is anything wrong with dating your own kind, being able to support each other through your trials and tribulations because you know exactly what the other is going through, since you've done it yourself.

Also, I'd be lying if I said the thought didn't cross my mind that you with another driven Ironman triathlete would be some insane mindblowing sex together. I can only dream, and hope to get to see a hint of what that man you pick does get to see. ;)

Is there a website for triathalon peeps that might allow you to chat with them and learn more about your kind as you put it

I get some times chat forums turn into "sex chat"

*sigh*...I fell into that trap. And I am big on math. So let's take a peek...

There's 300k'ish people in P'Burgh.

150k are male.

Only 17k are white males between 25-35.

7k have a Bachelor's or better.

4k are unmarried.

Half of those are going to be discounted on religious, family, political or "other" grounds, so down to 2k.

Being generous we'll say 1/4 are fitness nuts, 500.

Half will be already dating long term, 250.

50 of those left will be gay, 200.

If you want to get particular on what their degree is in (i.e. a preference for the arts as opposed to business or engineering), well now we're down to 100.

So you have, at most, 100 possible candidates in all of Pittsburgh. How many have you met already? 50-75?

Down to the 25, and you've dated how many in the last two years? 12 over two years?

So there are really only a dozen really possible candidates in the Burgh. And we haven't even looked at the competition yet.



So really instead of just trying to find Mr. 1/12, you should just be having fun meeting new people and surprising yourself on how much fun you can have on casual nights out. That pressure to make every date a potential to meet Mr.Right is something I never got in my 20's.
 
You were meeting Mr. Right?


I do have to agree with him though. Don't look, but instead just enjoy everything.

As for dating your own kind, anything can work if you are just enjoying yourself. I completely agree on core interests being key though, and you and I share those. Don't settle for less. Ambition is big, but don't let it be a big dealbreaker. Some are happy with the jobs they have. Just because I'm hoping to end up working in either pediatric oncology or in a PICU doesn't void me of ambition. Some people are comfortable in their lives, their ambition is just more subtle. :)

Above all, let life happen. It'll surprise you and bite you in your delicious ass before you know it, and presto chango, you'll have that guy you've always been looking for :)
