Q: The other weekend I was at the bar, talking to some friends, and this really nice guy comes up and says something along the lines of, "Hi, so sorry to interrupt, but I saw you from over there and you have the most radiant smile," blah blah blah... turns out he's 22. And he really is nice... told me he really wanted to get to know me, etc. However! Then I find out he doesn't have a job, lives with a buddy in a trailer on someone's property way out in the sticks, has 20 minutes on his cell phone per month, might move to Houston tomorrow, might not, etc. He's very attentive in that he calls and texts at least every other day (yeah, I gave him my number, sigh), and we've hung out a couple times since the initial meeting... I keep meeting guys like him... bold and seemingly confident, young, way good looking, but a complete mess in every other aspect. 1) I'm too old for that shiz, and 2) I need to learn how to attract guys that still might have grand dreams, but are also somewhat grounded.
Surely older guys, or at least guys that have their act together, like my smile too?

A: For one, you may want to stop going out with the guys we know are bad news. Have you tried dating online? It’s a good way for you to choose the guys instead of wait for them. Or facebook. Or ask friends for set ups instead of meet someone at the bar. Bars tend to be young.
Let me know what you think.
