Cindy, I'm not sitting on the sidelines without a dog. I say "go for it" too. I have "gone for it" - no regrets. Just don't get married or shack up or move or (you know) fu*ck-up your life.
Last guy I dated, I considered introducing him to my kids, then said "nooooo, I don't think so." Two days later, we had broken up.
-------------------- The sweetest thing you'll ever see in the whole wide world is a happy girl.
