The time recently came to leave my comfort zone in a Young Single Adult Ward (because I was no longer "young") and join a "Midsingles" Ward. Or, as a friend termed it "The Ward of Misfit Toys." However, because I, too am a misfit, I am at home.

Get that name right
I was checking the updated name change and realized that bob got the wrong name. It's inspired by the title of another blog that I read. Fabulous Adventures in Coding.

Adventures in Dating
Shaun and I were talking on Sunday, and we came up with a new name for this blog. However, I can't remember if this was the correct name or not.
Shaun, please email me if I have the wrong name...

An Old Friend
Today, I ran into an old friend of mine while downtown. We talked for a while, and then she needed to return to work, and I walked he there, while we still conversed.
I had, at one point in time, wanted to ask her out. However, annother friend had called dibs, and then acted on the dibs. They went out a few times.
Then, friend #2 took bad advice, and ended the relationship.
Actually, he didn't "end" it so much as not calling her again.
What a shame.
He and she were so much better together than she and I would be.
But, it's his loss, not mine.

Extreme Dating
A singles ward that some of my friends attend just instituted a dating program for their ward. While I don't have all the details, these are two details that I know about:
For the sisters, ask 12 boys out in the next 12 months.
For the Brothers, go on 18 dates in the next 3 months. 6 of them should be second dates or more.
The first part, women asking on a date a month, is a good idea. Maybe not quite that many, but women should not be worried about asking a guy out. Stop dancing around the issue, hoping we will ask you out. If you want to go on a sate with us, ask us!
The second is extreme. Start out small, like one date a week (Which is still a lot!) and then move on from there. 1.5/week? Sheesh!
