re no sex on first date -- how do I say this impolitely - I meant no full contact sex. Rather than Platonic love, I'd say it was Platectonic love: "rigid lithospheric plates that move slowly over the underlying mantle."

I had another rule _ref_. It was this: Don't date guys in the same city as me.

I lived in a good-sized urban centre (pop. 350,000) and 60 km (40 miles) from a very large urban centre. There is less chance of them hanging around all the time when they live in another city.

(But note, as I said before, I didn't smarten up until I was 38.)
