Ugh, I hate that. And I always feel bad saying so, because then I get a ton of defensive responses like "Small talk sucks! Don't hate me because I'm an introvert!", etc. But the ability to make decent conversation with a stranger is important to me.

Because it makes for a really long first date?

I mean, for example I love baseball and enjoy going to games, but I can't imagine doing that as a first date. That's a lot of time to be "locked in" with someone you don't know yet. (And what if it turns out you can't stand each other and then there are extra innings?!?)

What's been hard for me is finding men who don't want kids but still like them. I've never wanted to be a parent, but I love kids -- babies, toddlers, whatever, just as long as they aren't mine. I adore my 12-year-old "nephew" (who has already asked if he can drive my Z when he turns 16!), and I can't imagine being serious about someone who wouldn't want to hang out with him. I generally don't click with people who don't like children or animals (I have a dog).

(Single dads would seem to be the answer right? Except that a lot of them don't want to date childless women, because they're convinced we'd never really understand that their kid comes first.)
