dating advice usually ignored

I will admit that there are nutty guys out there just as much as there are fruitcake gals. Dating is a mine field and one can't be so desperate or emotionally involved as to go into a relationship with eyes wide shut and common sense unplugged. It's a wise thing to consider the strange idiosyncrasies and realize the craziness won't get better along the way or go away. Chances are, the idiosyncratic behavior will only become more pronounced or even worsen. Lovely feeling won't make it all better. Be picky even if the pick'ens are slim.

There's another kind of crazy ~ to think one can change a partner in time. Good luck with that. My advise is, you got to know when to hold'em, know when to fold'em, know when to walk away and know when to run.
