if my husband and I ever break up, I will be the only person I would commit to ever again.....

Right now my answer is still the same as it was before, but HELL TO THE NO!

Not right now, I am a big, hot mess.

I am a pretty solitary person so if I dated myself I would rarely see me and that would be fine for me. (us?)
The sex would be spectacular when we did get together though.

Oh hell no!!!

I don't like "sammie" wenches.

There was a time I would. I'm to old and grumpy now.

the sex would be hard too lol

I wouldn't date myself ~ viva l' differance

Yes absolutely.

Deborah

Yup, I'm a pretty decent person. I'd date me

seriously? no i wouldn't it'll be an hell worse than my dayly struggle

Yes, I would definitely date myself.
It would feel like winning the lottery.

:daddy:

Would I date a butch, sexually dominant version of myself?

No. Because I need someone that *compliments* my strengths and weaknesses, that interlinks with the way I work, no a carbon copy of my personality traits, that wouldn't work. That's like two puzzle pieces of the same shape.

I'm a quiet living extrovert that likes gregarious introverts. It works better than two extroverts. Two extroverts don't ever shut the fuck up.

I like people who have strong points where I suck.

Two people who are very chill about the same things don't ever make decisions, and stubborn about the same things, never make compromises.

Having similar values/needs/wants in a relationship would be great, yes. And similar interests would be fantastic. But that's about the only places I would find it beneficial.

too much similarity - we'd fight too much.

I'd give it a go, but more with a view to making friends than finding a partner. I'd be concerned that with identical weaknesses, as a couple we'd screw up twice as bad on the things that I screw up on. I think I need that sense of occasional delightful surprise you get from an Other. But at least I'd know I'm completely trustworthy, and affectionate. Plus there'd be little sense of mystery to a relationship. Could be fun to double-date with, we'd likely cause minor havoc now and then with our respective dates!

(this is a fun thread - some of the responses here have had me in stitches!)

Would be intrigued, but would rather hang out or else with.

Go out on a date, naw ... she's too boisterous and loud. You never know what she's going to say next.

Absolutely!
 

Yes, I would date myself. I'm kinda fun to date. ;)

Would definitely depend on the type of activity.
Gambling or Scrabble: yes
Chatterbox type activities: absolutely not - would lose some friends

Movies or any other activity not requiring conversation: absolutely
A party: not on my word

I had been dating myself...but had to break it off because I was in it just for the sex.

^ this is epic! Thanks for the laugh!

Brilliant, LOL!!!

While I do like/love me and consider myself my closest ally, trouble is, I like femmes and I'm just not femme enough for me. Being single, me and I have a friends-with-benefits thing that'll do for now, but if the right femme comes along, I am breaking up with me. :phonegab: "It's not you, it's me, Wheat."

Heck no!

I am butch and I like femmes. I am stubborn and a workaholic. I am never at ease.

I don't know how I missed this thread when it came out a decade (!) ago. I'm just now "coming back" and re-bumping things myself.

I read the whole thing, and among the laughs and deep thoughts (and pain from some), maybe a better question is: Do you like/love yourself?

For you can't hope to have a great relationship with anyone else until you have such a relationship with yourself.

As for myself, I think if I were to meet myself right now, I'd like my humor, strength, intelligence, and sure, nice looks ;), but I'd recognize a troubled person going through a lot. Not that it makes me unavailable, but I'd be cautious about getting involved until a later time.

But I'd also see someone who wants to work hard and get to a great place and is hella smart enough to know how to do it. So yes, I'd date myself and go along for a bumpy but fun ride!

I will answer this with a Blake Shelton song.
 

Honeybee:

Girl, I been thinkin' 'bout us
And you know I ain't good at this stuff
But these feelings pilin' up won't give me no rest
This might come out a little crazy
A little sideways, yeah maybe
I don't know how long it'll take me
But I'll do my best

You'll be my soft and sweet
I'll be your strong and steady
You'll be my glass of wine
I'll be your shot of whiskey
You'll be my sunny day
I'll be your shade tree
You'll be my honeysuckle
I'll be your honey bee

If you'll be my Louisiana
I'll be your Mississippi
You'll be my Little Loretta
I'll be your Conway Twitty
You'll be my sugar, baby
I'll be your sweet iced tea
You'll be my honeysuckle
I'll be your honey bee


Complement, not compliment. Well okay, a little of both.

Yes. Absolutely.

I date myself every day. I spoil myself everyday. I take wonderful care of me. I hold high regard for myself and do all I can to nurture my independence and to bolster my resilience.


Because I’m worthy of every good intentional act of love and care I give to myself. I honor my body and my existence in life.

:kissy: <<<<<<<~~~ I save my kisses and use my lips for beautiful acts of love and kindness.

Would You Date Yourself
 

Being Stone I would have to say no. However if I were able to make a change I defintely would date myself as a Stone Femme. I have been told I am easy going, thoughtful, respectful and fun to be around. I had a 22 yr. relationship and a 12 yr. relationship so I must have been a good first date. lol.
