Encounters

In Mother's day it was not correct To ask the man for a date They found a guy they really liked Yet they had to sit and wait Times have changed Women have come into their own They see a guy that they fancy Now they do not go home alone Has it really changed for the better This making the first move? Men enjoy the challenge still I'm sure they would prefer to choose Of course they can still say no If they do not like the lady But being man he can not refuse He would be considered crazy So is it really better today? For women to be able to choose Somehow this leaves us cold It has given us a lot to lose The way it was before Made for a nicer way to date The romance was still there And now it holds no weight We move too fast towards romance The rush is there to date No one has the time to learn If our choice would be worth the wait We need to return to the good old days When men were the ones to choose When we were the ones they chose on their own And romance was really pursued

I still like to be the initiator but it is flattering when a woman makes the first move. I must say I am glad not to be in the dating world, it somehow seems a lot more involved these days. Great job mom.
