Best foot forward OR Airing dirty laundry????

It's funny... how in dating you try to put your best foot forward.

But eventually... if you really want to get to know the person, you have to ask the hard questions. You have to let the skeletons out of the closet and air of of that stinkin' dirty laundry. Because then (and only then) do you really start to get to know the person and why they are the way they are.

Most people probably don't ask those questions on date #2.

I'm not out in the dating pool to tiptoe around... I want to know those answers sooner rather than later.


So... I asked them.
"Why are you divorced?" "What went wrong in your marriage?" "What would you change if you could?"

But he asked them too.
"You seemed like you were head over heels for Spencer, are you sure that is definitely over?"

And do you know what???

Those questions didn't kill him or me... in fact, they showed me that this might be a guy I'd like to have stick around for more than a date or two...
