I'm thinking I need to take lessons from you
Wait, that didn't sound right I mean in snagging those guys that want to play Dracula on your neck and kiss you passionately

Another cheap outing that I used to do (but haven't lately because of my situation) is going to minor league baseball games.
The tickets are cheap. The food and souvenirs are expensive. So I usually go without. I like to sit either behind a dugout or home plate. I like to heckle the opposing team, and cheer for the home team, even if I'm not really a fan. Today people get offended by heckling, but they miss the point. It's not about being mean. It's about distracting the player to give your own team some slight advantage. Sometimes it actually works. Other times the players will joke around with you on the sidelines, not taking any offense. One time I was cheering a home player at the plate, shouting "Hit the train!" The train was beyond the right field fence. The player shifted his stance, and on the next good pitch, he pulled the ball to right field, swinging for the fence. It ended up being a home run, but he missed the train by several dozen feet. Point is, when the players react in a fun or positive manner, that's what makes the moment. And if your efforts do help your team to get pumped up or play better, that makes it fun as well. All because you can see there's actual interaction going on. Anyway....because of my schedule this week, I'll have to ration out some of my recreations as time permits me to post them. |

Seriously Action... I'm having a moment here
I'm not interested in baseball right now... how well can you play Dracula? 
Sorry Action, couldn't help myself... I get a little giddy when I'm getting tired
I've never went to a baseball game, I've never really been into sports but maybe going to a real game rather than watching on tv would be a lot more fun. |

Well to answer your question...
I can only play Bela Lugosi thinking he's actually Dracula. Blah! Blah!

Definitely! 
But Action at least gets a kiss for effort

I don't think I'd ever get tan enough to do the George Hamilton version.
Too much Irish blood.

That does make it difficult. I'm Irish as well, but fortunately I am German and that must be more dominant because I can tan very well.

Let's see....other "play" dates...
Two things come to mind: 1) I'd like to learn ballroom dancing, but I need a partner. 2) I'd like to learn how to ride a horse. I don't drink anymore, but back when I was drinking, I would have been up for wine-tasting. But now....that would be a really bad idea. I also wouldn't mind trying to drive a race car. There are some tracks in the area where you can do that. But when it comes to simple things, I'm also content to have game nights, where we just get together to play board games or video games or whatever else works. I used to like playing darts, for instance, but I was never much good at pool. They are disappearing now, but one thing we used to do around here in the summer for dates is mini golf. In fact, a friend and I once spent a summer touring around the state trying all the different mini golf places. It was epic. We still talk about it....30 years later. Which brings up another possibility... I used to play golf. Still a novice, and I'm out of practice. Need to get new clubs and bag. But I know of a nice Par 3 course, and it's not too expensive. Plus I know other people who could come along to make it a group thing. |

Sounds like a midlife crisis
Play as a child is how they learn and interpret their world inline with their cognitive development ... As for Play as an adult .. I hope everyone has evolved beyond playing in a sand box or dangling from monkey bars ... at the end of the day .. just be you .. if you are not spontaneous . .. Then either seek a partner who shares that trait or one who helps you foster a sense of fun Success with the opposite sex will mostly always come down to that elusive chemical attraction

Could very well be a midlife crisis Blondey
Good points, and no I'm not really interested in playing in the sandbox or dangling on monkey bars Maybe the little kiddie pool full of jello though 
Nothing wrong with midlife crisis Blondey... unless of course it causes one to make devastating changes in their lives. We all... even those of us who have very high esteem, go through changes and take time to re-evaluate or do an inventory as to where we are as far as quality of life. Some are totally satisfied and keep on trekking... sounds like that's where you are... Awesome, congrats
Others choose to make a few changes to help get to that place... That's where I'm at and that's okay! I have faith that so long as I keep on keeping on, I'll get to exactly where I want to be.  
Thanks for commenting

To be honest, I always liked playing on monkey bars, even as an adult. The only reason I wouldn't do it anymore now is cos of my neck / head injury.
Playing in a sandbox... can be great fun! Same as going to the beach and digging a hole until the groundwater fills it, or making a castle with a moat, decorating it with seashells 
I think one of the biggest problems in life -especially if someone was to go through a midlife of sorts- is to not have a connection anymore with the inner child. The inner child is our playful, happy part that loves to have fun and goof around and doesn't really care so much what other people think about what he/she does. When you let your inner child play you feel great, and it makes other people smile as well. I love to walk over a path on the dyke with seashells cos of how it feels and sounds! If there's fresh new shells, LOVE it!! Same with wood chips on a path. Or dried fallen leaves in autumn. They crack, I like that, so I step from one to the next. When there's a lot I can't resist barging through them and kicking them up in the air, haha. When there's cones on the street, I kick them around, trying to stick to one and take that with me as far as I can. When it shoots off, I go for another one. I like that sort of stuff, hihi. In the course that I'm currently running I'm reconnecting people with their inner child (it's an inner child & self-love course) and the effects are amazing! Everyone's happy with how they feel when in touch with their inner child :) |

My late husband and I joked abiout building an "adult playground" (get yer mind out of the gutter)..
We'd have a privacy fence , so the people would be free to swing, play on monkey bars...dig in sand and play with army men and toy trucks....etc... All that stuff kids (used to) do... I don't think it has anything to do with "mid-life crisis".. I think it is more that people mget a certain age, and think stuff they would enjoy doing is beneath them...and they lose that child-like wonder at things.. |

Crystal, at our respective heights,
playing on monkey bars, can be downright dangerous. They're simply not high enough, to maintain ground clearance. I use to love playing on stuff like that. |

My other thread "Have you ever felt undateable" prompted me to creating a new thread. Now that we have acknowledged that some of us do and some of us don't feel undateable, let's move past that and do something about it
I was having a conversation with someone about the importance of getting back to the basics and just having fun.. enjoying each other's company. That almost seems like a foreign concept to me... almost because I have been practicing having fun over the last year, lol. For whatever reason, not really necessary to go into details, the "play and have fun" part of me is suppressed. It doesn't come natural although as I practice that innate part inside is slowly coming to surface... I actually noticed a difference when I was visiting with my nephews, it wasn't quite so awkward playing childhood games with them... very cool feeling! This concept reminded me of kindergarten, hahaha... I mentioned in my other thread wanting to return to my teenager/young adult years and experience that first date I missed out on.. Well maybe I need to go back a bit further... To kindergarten and simply play for now. A play date! So who wants to go on a play date?
What are some of the things you do that help you to play and revive that playful nature we're all born with? Edited in... Come here to kick back, relax, laugh, and play. There's no set topic other than having fun and enjoying each other's company... just like we do on a play date :) Adult play dates are acceptable... so long as they adhere to Mingle rules 
Most of all... Let's have some fun!

I think what she really means in the bigger picture is a sense of fun especially when you first meet. Personally, I find a woman with a sense of fun, who is just enjoying herself, to be very attractive. Who am I going to connect with more easily, the woman who is talking about her potential promotion at work or the one that is laughing, flirtatious, and generating sexual tension? |
