| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 5/31/2008 3:13:20 PM |
The problem with women is they imagine a relationship, and to have one they need a man, but it's not a man they want; they want a relationship. There are men by the zillions right and left, eager to love women. Women do not want men, they want relationships. The man says to the woman, I want you! And the woman replies, go away you pig, I am looking for a relationship! - Mr Internet
I came across a quotation recently. It mirrors your post, Mr Internet. It goes like this: "The man's love is for the woman, but the woman's love is for the love of the man."
You need to toss it around your head for a while before it clicks.
Best wishes - Soul Union. | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 5/31/2008 4:01:00 PM | i have a theory. alot of men are scared of commitment, and another big chunk of men are scared of being upstaged by the women they date. what guy wants to be less successful and bring in less money than the woman they're with? sure, men like to be taken care of.. but wouldn't they be embarrassed if their woman was the one 'wearing the pants'? | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 5/31/2008 6:39:59 PM | I'm not scared of commitment or of a woman that makes more. Are'nt most of the people on here looking for a commitment. If she makes more thats great there is nothing wrong with a woman makeing good money. Is'nt all about the relationship not the pay check. As long as there is a pay check | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 6:16:20 AM | I belive that in the end we all want the same thing happyness. The problem is we all figure that the one we are talking to probably is out for something else. Its the old saying Men are dogs and other words and Women are Golddiggers and other words. When in the end if you don't give it a chance you will never know. Me I found a couple that trun into what woman call a Lazy sorry basterd They are great when it starts then they just don't want to do anything But why stop looking. Who wants to be alone not me Me I'm looking for someone that will treat me right. Who needs the games take to long and in the end you never win  | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 6:48:56 AM | I vote for the theory of that 1963 hit by Jimmy Soul ... If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life.
If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life Never make a pretty women your wife Go for my personal point of view Get an ugly girl to marry you.
Don't let your friends tell you you have no taste go ahead and marry anyway Her face is ugly her eyes don't match take it from me shes a better catch Men aren't interested in the "Plain Jane" types. We're basically low maintenance ... and will usually be there for them through thick and thin. I won't say that all "Plain Jane" types are handy around the house, but most are not concerned about breaking a nail if it's necessary to pitch in.
Uh Huh ... there's a price to be paid for wanting the "Barbie' types, but most men just don't get it. They want the women who are drop-dead gorgeous but then get in here and whine about all the baggage that goes with it.
To be honest ... I'm glad that I'm a "Plain Jane" type. If a man wants to overlook me for the more beautiful women, then that's fine with me. I don't really want a man who has all these great expectations of me when it comes to looks. I'd rather be in a relationship that's relaxed where we can accept each other for the looks and spend more time on getting to know the inner person.
The time a lot of women put into hair and make up and nails and shopping for shoes and clothes ... I can spend with my man doing things that both of us like to do. | |

Alot of "good" men and women don't do anything to make themselves attractive...no one has to be fat and out of shape or dress in a sloppy manner..heatlthy eating,excercise and a decent wardrobe can do anyone alot of good.
Ummm Triumvirat, being "fat" does not make someone unattractive. It might not be your type, but it doesn't make someone unattractive. Furthermore, there are a lot of people who eat healthily, excercise and dress well who are unattractive and aren't good men or women.
Pffff... Some people's children. | |

-- Maybe the OP isn't as good a woman as she thinks she is. "Good woman" or "good man" is a pretty loosely defined term, and what's good to one may not be so good to another. -- Being a "good woman" or "good man" doesn't necessarily mean you're an "attractive woman" or "attractive man." -- Just because someone wants to be in a committed relationship doesn't mean they want to do so with just anyone. "Goodness" is just one of dozens of criteria people are looking for. Heck, for some people it's not even a criterion.
maybe 'he' (whoever he is) is looking for some sort of challenge, a risk? girls who treat you right and will always be there aren't always that appealing to some men.. and women for that matter. i know that personally, i'd rather have something to work for. This is also a definite possibility. | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 10:23:01 AM | It isnt that men dont like good women .I think most of us realy do want a good woman and are looking for one . But most women that think they are being good are lousy lovers . I feel a woman soulld be 'a saint on the street a beauty in the window and a whore in bed that is not what moms teach | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 10:51:40 AM | | Yeah, studio 289, i think you hit the nail on the head. Women tend to do it too, but are more willing to take a second and third look if the "prince" is persistent and sweet. | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 1:22:08 PM | carrela..Ummm to some people it does...furthermore being fat is not an American birthright...there are plenty of men and women who you would be lucky if they bathed on any given day. pfff...period ! | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 2:41:49 PM | | Triumvirat, it must be nice to think that only your opinion matters when judging what is attractive and what is not. People come in all shapes and sizes, good and bad, clean and dirty and it has no bearing on whether or not they're good people. I have no problem with someone saying that they prefer a thin woman but to actually come out and say that anyone who isn't thin is unattractive is not only close-minded but a shallow jerk. | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 3:01:41 PM | | The main reason men overlook good women is that they don't know who they are. All we go on is looks and 1st impressions. Never taking the time to really getting to know the other. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to be able to figure out a "perfect" match? kinda like 'fits like a glove" type of match. You won't find it on POF because this is just a viewing station. | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 3:05:24 PM | | Carrela....listen...lady i'm not interested in a pissing match with you,i have a right to my opinion and there's nothing you can do about it...there is thread after thread in here from people who think other people owe them attention because in their mind they are "good"..."nice" or "BBW"...since you have resorted to name calling i will simply say that you are just another fat woman with a chip on her shoulder,you express your opinions and sometimes you're not very nice about it so you have no room to call names. | |

| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 3:24:06 PM | Triumvirat, if I take offense in people saying that someone who is overweight is not attractive, that hardly qualifies as having a chip on my shoulder. Also, if you bothered to notice, anytime I might be "mean", I never resorted to being a child and ridiculing someone's physical appearance. Saying that you don't want to getting into a "pissing match" with me is a little silly because you should know that if you put up stuff that will be offensive to a certain group of people, you're inviting it.
As for the name calling, telling people that there's no reason to be overweight and saying that they're unattractive is a dandy. Anyhow, you just confirmed what kind of "person" (for lack of a better word) I thought you were. | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 3:37:34 PM | | There is no reason to be overweight... a good famine would prove it...ever heard of physics and the laws of physics...energy cannot be created from nothing,i just wish America's obese would go to places like Africa and tell those poor people how they can be fat from not eating...you judge what kind of person i am based on my willingness to accept your opinions...smart!...ridiculing "someone's " physical appearence...who's appearence did i ridicule....name please. | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 4:19:15 PM | | Triumvirat, don't start bringing in the "poor people" of Africa. If you make any money that you can put into savings I could say to you "if you can go to a homeless shelter and tell people who they can save money by not having any money..." blah blah blah As for a name, you didn't single anyone out by name, you did it to a whole group of people regardless of how overweight they are. Niiiiice. | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 5:18:58 PM | | People who don't eat too much are not fat...from the concentration camps of Germany to the prison camps of the Civil War...anytime,anywhere when people don't have an abundance of food it's the same...they are not fat...can you provide an example which would refute what i am saying and suspends the laws aof Physics at the same time ???? | |
|
| Why Do Men Overlook Good Women? Posted: 6/1/2008 7:46:01 PM | I have it. The real reason Men Overlook Good Women. Women are to hard to figure OUT If they were as easy as men we would'nt be in this Predicament Come on Ladys get as simple as guys | |
