I don't think this is a man vs. woman debate.
We all may overlook a "good" partner.
But the fact is that we know within ourselves when we find it - what it was we were seeking, and we know when it just isn't there.

You can settle. And accept someone because they're "good enough" or "ok" or "close!"

But the reality is you just know when you know.

Yeah, lust can sometimes make the "close enoughs" do-able.
But for something lasting or to commit to?

You truly take your own, sweet, time and don't rush it.

"MY" opinion..(as bitter and biotchy as it may be.lol!!) Is the simple fact that alot, NOT ALL men... are here after being in a commited relationship, and feel the need to make up for lost time?? jmo.. they don't want a good woman that may give them,heaven forbid!! Her heart..., a real honest faithful relationship. It's far more fun to jump from one chick to the next, it's all a conquest. Women do it too...why "settle" or commit to one person, when there likely is something better on the next page?!
I've seen so many guys on here too that are complaining of women not being honest.. not knowing what they want...bla bla bla.. these same guys are the ones that can't seem to find someone special...CAUSE they never give it a chance...duh, we live in a world of "Instant gratification" And it's SOO easy to delete a person, ignore their calls, texts, messages..etc. and meet someone new start the cycle all over again,lol!! It's actually quite amusing to me now, over a year ago, when I was ready to start dating again, I found it very irritating and slightly disheartning. But now I get it.. for myself, I know chances of actually meeting someone thru any type of internet communication is about as likley as getting struck by lightning, so I keep coming back just to keep myself amused and the for the forums, or when I feel like dating someone new... with no risk of a commitment, this is how I see it now. AND I know alot of us women are exactly the same.... what can I say
I supposse it makes it that much harder for the ones on here honestly looking,wanting to meet someone special, bless their hearts

Wow I really just wanted to say "Cause they're dumb *sses that can only think with one head at a time... and it usually isn't the one on the shoulders"..hehehe But I'm truly NOT a man bashing biotch!! I do love men, all types of men, and would love to ever meet a great one, for me and me alone, I'm not going to settle for some B/S Prince Charming that spends all his free time online looking to collect all the panties he can get off either..I do have morals and dignity,that come into play when I need them!!
Thats not too say I'm some holier than thou angel, cause I'm certainly not!! But I do give respect to the one, however temp. he may be in my life, that I'm seeing and really hate/loathe being one of many.
(That felt pretty good to get off my chest)

Humans love confident partners. We seek it. When it appears you are confident, no matter if your good, bad or a martian humans will react to it. Your post denotes a lack of selfconfidence. And thats why no "good men" are persuing you at this time.

I think alot of great people are over looked due to reading in black and white. No voice tone. No facial expression. An then you have the bull chitter filters. That filter is like a wall with a woman. She gets so used to listening to the bull chitters feeding them a line of chit that when a guy is being real then their walls are sooooooo far up in the air they are sceptical and sometimes miscommunicate and hit the block button or else read and delete. It's only a certain percentage of people that makes us all sceptical. Some people have their standards set so high that they will only talk to someone thats really above their league. There's some guys that play them selves down when talking so the woman doesn't think he's feeding her a line.
Some women need to lighten up and take a chill pill. I don't know about the guys because I don't email them. We're all humans tho. Some just take more showers than others.

Harvey.... I know you're not refering to me?? I'm a little "cynical" maybe a wee bit "bitter"..but lacking self confidence?? Pleasse, I do get pursued, and my self confidence is just fine, thank you. My post was simply my opinion/response to the
"Why do men overlook good women?" MY opinion... I'm stating what I've learned and experienced here in just over a year, why would you feel the need to comment further on YOUR response, adding that:
Your post denotes a lack of selfconfidence. And thats why no "good men" are persuing you at this time.
Where did I state 'no good men are persuing me'???

Is it a lack of self confidence or merely paranoia that makes people hope others are talking about them?

I'm thinking there's a group of men an women that just want to play the finger-pointing game. They sit on the opposite side of their own little fences and fling rotten tomatoes at each other. Why they are busy being miserable, the rest of us are ignoring them and having a fine and happy life without the BS. What you do reflects back on you. That includes blaming others. It tells a lot about a person.

Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are lazy. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy.......
So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's NOT lazy to climb all the way to the top of the tree.

I don't make it EASY for a man...I don't play games, but I do NOT throw myself at a man or alter any pre-determined plans I have for a man. I have a friend who is an awesome human being, but has a different modus operendi than I do. I've seen her get hurt. I used to be that way myself. Let's just say when I got burned, I realized I was setting myself up for it.

Lately, I have been doing things for me, by myself & feel way more relaxed & happy. I am way more selective about who I will meet. I do not take this site seriously. I am in another site, where you have to be a paid member. Guess what? Better quality men! Money talks, you know...they seem to be more serious.

If some man wants to eat a wormy apple because it's laying there on the ground, he desrves the tummy ache he is gonna get. A quality man is gonna be selective & climb the tree to get the ripe, juicy sweet apple

Greetings,
I think a lot of men want a trophy to display on his arm. "Look at me! See what I have. I won her!" I also think men are more apt to be taken in by sight and over character , intelligence, and spirituality. Then there are some who are searching for all those benefits. I guess envy of others would fit in here.

MEN OVERLOOK GOOD WOMEN BECAUSE MOST ARE JUST CONCERNED HOW A PERSON LOOKS ON THE OUTSIDE AND NOT WHAT KIND OF PERSON THEY REALLY ARE. THEREFOR MOST OF US PLAIN WOMEN GET OVERLOOKED AND GET JADED WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE AND DATING. ONE THING MEN DO NOT UNDERSTAND IS THAT LOOKS ISN'T EVERYTHING AND THAT THEY COULD BE MISSING OUT ON SOME WONDERFUL EXPERIENCES AND THE GOOD FEELINGS THAT COME WITH KNOWING SOMEONE, JUST BECAUSE LOOKS IS THE MAIN THING THAT DRIVES THEM IN THIS CRAZY DATING WORLD. BUT OH WHO CARES ANYMORE.

Hm. Weird. A nice/good men/women thread that not only wasn't deleted on the spot but also has almost 8 pages of replies?!? That is almost hard to believe!

To answer the question... who knows. Women like a**holes, men like beyatches. We all are collectively screwed up in the head.

Yeah, my sister sent me that chain letter a while back.

WELL MAYBE IF ALL THE GOOD PLAIN WOMEN WENT OUT WITH THE NICE GUYS EVERYONE WOULD BE HAPPY.

I'm guessing the answer is the same as all the other questions people ask on this forum. One particular man might not be attracted to a specific woman despite how 'good' she may be or 'nice' he is.

Overlooking " GOOD WOMEN" or is it GOD's WOMEN?"
Are men really looking ? Are they LOOKING ?
What are they looking with ?
MEN : Do tell ALL !

REAL MEN LOVE WOMEN with CURVES ; YES MOVIE TITLE but excellent referral

Shallow HAL ; another MOVIE



OKAY ; NOW we know the WHY but do you really want those that " OVERLOOK."

If we all wore sheets over our heads we'd have to look deeper. "Hot" women know they can play guys like marionettes and "cover band rockstars " can play stupid women the same way.
