We talk about the implications of labels like this and how they point to larger issues around trust and integrity when dating later in life.

Lux once again unloads his gripes against scammers and insecure daters not willing to commit. He has his war stories and scars. That's right, it's a battlefield out there and no one sure who or what is the enemy. Online dating is up higher than ever, but that doesn't mean it's safe or sane. So if you are wanting to get into the dating game, be sure to wear your emotional protection (as well as the normal gear). Your heart and wallet are at risk. Then, there's your time, especially if your raising a child/teen or taking care of a parent, while working. Life is certainly not easy these days. Then if you can spare the time, can you spare the cash that impressing a date takes? That's why picnics at parks and spending the night smooching in your neighbor's convertible (just kidding about the latter) might be inexpensive options. Sometimes being creative can save you lots of money. Then there's Giddy, she goes on and on about other stuff, just like a woman. She'll kill me for that. Hey, you know the drill, reach out to us with your thoughts and support us with your love and pennies, if you can.
