Probably not. I'd probably realise that I wasn't in a good place to be in a relationship at this point, or that I might just not be the relationship type. As long as both me's realised it, I guess it'd be alright lol Of course it would depend on the type of person "other me" is, since me me is not really the be-with-each-other-every-waking-hour type. I need my space...but if I am identical to myself, I guess I'd be good for me. And now I feel kind of insane

[asphaltcowboi]

no!!! im way to butch for me!

[dykeumentary]

I'd date me, there surely would never be a dull moment. Probably wouldn't last long though, because I'd never get a word in.

[DapperButch]

No.

Now there is good stuff about me - integrity, honestly, good communicator, good listener and emotional supporter, loyal, kind, great in a crisis....but...

I like someone who is more gentle in nature and is a different kind/type of nurturer than I tend to be (no, I can't describe it..but it is a different way of nurturing...the way I nurture wouldn't meet my needs).

In terms of values and general approach to life, I seek someone similar to me.

My first reaction was no. But, upon further review, Me, Myself and I already have a good relationship going, I'm a good guy, have a big heart, and don't take much for granted. So, my answer is yes. Yes, I would date Myself.

Would I date me? I will say yes,but with a caveat; I am fairly intelligent and can hold a good convo, attentive,funny,loyal, and though I am steady as a rock, I can be spontaneous and unpredictable. I think those are good traits for being dateable. (is dateable a word??) On the caveat emptor side... I don't like crowds and will usually be one of the first to leave if an event goes much past 11 pm. I live for working out, ANYTHING to do with bikes, triathlons, etc. so much of my time, at times, will be tied up with getting ready for some type of event.

I tend to live inside my own head a LOT, so if silence bothered a potential date, that would be an issue. I am a "quantum leaper" in my thought process and will spew forth a soliloquy that may start with how strong ants are for their size and end with why Greek, Doric, French Provincial architecture intriques me, stopping along the way at dogs,bikes, and the price of gas, etc. Luckily I have found my perfect counterpart and she actually LIKES these things about me... so YES I would date me, but it's a moot point!!

[Soft*Silver]

well, my impish first thought was to be funny and say that ever since I strapped on, my dating pool got smaller, so dating myself might be my only option but....thats not true at all...funny but not true...

At the moment I wouldnt date me because I am emotionally not available. I am not damaged goods. I just am not emotionally willing to participate in a romantic relationship. So, no, I wouldnt put myself in that position.

If I was emotionally available? No. I am bullheaded and two bullheaded people in a relationship does not work. Locked horns do not end up in stalemate. It oftens ends up in a blood bath. I am also the worst possible combination of being bullheaded AND sensitive...so imagine bloodbath and tears when I am with someone like myself..or someone deft and clumsy at relationships. My best companion tends to be someone who helps me lighten up and makes me laugh. Its like I sit around in a bathtub full of sorrow sometimes and they have to pull that damn plug so we can fill the tub with bubbles. I respond really really well to that!
