Posted: 5/26/2008 12:14:40 PM | ^^^I don't allow anyone to "drop" me prematurely..(sorry..I'm replying to a post that has since changed in text and is no longer up for discussion), as I just "hiss" at men within 10 minutes of a first meet and they tend to run with their tail tucked between their legs when they see the irises in my eyes are actually red, not hazel.
Guess they're definition of I'm " all that" and their definition of I'm "all that" was different..hmmm..maybe they weren't "all that" in my eyes, hence the "hissing" fit that I have perfected so well.
Ah, well..we all have a talent, do we not??

Posted: 5/26/2008 12:15:26 PM | My profile says in plain english and in black and white I am not perfect nor am I seeking perfection.....
But I know what the OP is referring to. If we more or less have it together as a person........ and are all that AND a bag of chips....... why are we single ?
Answer: because we are not involved in a relationship at the moment.
See how easy that was.....lol
Peace | |

Believe me I am not all that. But I would prefer to experience life without diluting the experience with drugs or excessive alcohol. Hmmm.
Yeah, me too ...
just remember to duck in case Trigger bolts for the barn.

Posted: 5/27/2008 5:31:17 AM | I have been alone for the last 11 years on and off, but not lonely. My jobs have taken me all around the world and it was a sacrifice I was willing to commit to. The problem I have now is I have many job options if I wish to pursue them, or should I just retire and go back to climbing mountains around the world. I am never alone, my son will soon start travelling with me, and I have many friends that are adventure seekers like myself. I am far from lonely, my life is so full, mostly because of my son and my attitude. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 5:47:52 AM | The majority of the time I have been entirely devoid of any relationship, dating, contact or so forth was because I was dumped just before going to the Middle East last year and it is a bit hard to do any of them there.
Nothing spectacularly awesome about me, I am not 'all that', but I am how I present myself and as such never really been single for long. Yes, all those people who make nasty posts about me, I am like this in real life too! The difference is that I can back myself when accountable in real life, most people on the net cannot. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 5:51:43 AM | Alone by choice or Lack of action? This site is called "plenty of fish" for a reason, Put some bait onto your hook and cast it out there, reel it in and cast again..... what people miss here is that just because a person takes 10 minutes and types in some great stuff about themselves and puts it into the system, the "system" isn't going to send you to the first window to pick up one order of steaming hot lover with a large frie and a tall cool drink. The first part is knowing what you want, the second is making yourself into an attractive package for that type of person, the third part is go to where people like that hang out and go after it! The answer is those who are successful at dating get off their A$$ and go to where it's "happening" and make it happen for themselves. Keep casting, and change up bait often  | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 6:08:00 AM | I used to be all that....but I lost some of 'THAT" on the internet.
OP........I m never lonely......never......... Would it be nice at this stage of my life to have someone to do things with that are best done as couples? Sure...... I however, dont think I'm ready to have someone move in and invade my space on a steady basis. I've been on a long journey to gain my peace and I am content for the most part in being on my own.
In my mind happiness is best shared from across the street lol
If someone comes into my life that I dont want to be without then I will reassess my life......however long that may be........
So no, we are not all here for the same reasons. Everyones definition of a relationship in life is different and I think a lot has to do with what stage in life you are at.
Good to all and hopefully we will all have our needs met sooner rather than later..........no matter what those needs are.....
Edit......and OP I do get that by your saying all that ,you mean, what you say we all have listed in our profile....."down to earth. easy going..etc etc | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 6:18:42 AM | Profiles tend to stress the positives and not the negatives (read some of the advice in Profile Reviews forum), so they can give the impression that we are "all that." Maybe it's a good idea to admit a little (just a little) flaw in the profile so that others who are likewise not really "all that" will be encouraged to contact you.
I agree with many posters that we are NOT all here for the same thing. All the same, MANY are here for the reasons you suggest. Why don't you emphasize your reasons and goals for being here and try to connect with those who convey the same. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 6:34:06 AM | And let's just add that a heck of alot of people aren't all those things they say they are in their profiles...from:
1. being deluded
2. having absolutely no insight into their personalities
3. being too lazy to actually try to find original words to accurately describe themselves
Like, um, easygoing. just what percentage of people are *truly* easygoing? LOL maybe 5%, tops?
And yes, those negative qualities... man can they be a turnoff or what?
I believe in truth in advertising. And what you see as apositive is a negative to someone else. and what you see as a negative, someone else sees as a positive.
Easygoing = wishywashy
Easygoing = no goals in life
Easygoing = no freakin' balls
Stubborn = Has opinions, intelligent viewpoints, has thought the issues through
Stubborn = sticks to their convictions
Stubborn = Has the balls to go after what they want, until they get it
Stubborn = Perseveres to the end, despite frustration and difficulties
See? And what floats my boat, might not float yours.
lastly, a lot of the fish come and go... Relationships truly are hard as hell. And we aren't going to be a good match for everyone. One tiny little part of someone might be a huge dealbreaker for someone else. Hey, life sucks, get over it. Enjoy the process.

Posted: 5/27/2008 8:51:17 AM | Some of you were lucky enough to find it for a short time and it ended for what ever reason and some times it end due to reasons not seen, i.e. death. So pleasei know its no harm meant but really im happy with my life and i don't look at it as a failure just cause im not married with kids and living the dream life with a white picket fence and 2.5 kids and a dog called bingo or something.
Well said.
I've been single for 4 years now and thogh I would like to make some new friends, I would'nt go through that marrage bit again for love nor money. I am happier now than I have been in my whole life and have finally found peace. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 9:00:15 AM | | first of all i think a person has a right putting whatever they want on there profile,providing its the truth.not everybody on here is here because they cant have somebody or there alone.my problem is i think men like me have too many choices to pick from.that doesnt make me arrogent and i am careful not to lead somebody on.also think being negative about something sends a bad vibe,everbody has there own exsperiance on here and other dating site.if you want someone be open and you will attract more interesting poeple.it sounds like you were heart by someone and you dont beliveve shit stinks until you smell it,wich intern poeple like me who i am sure you would like get turned off just by reading what you wrote and you are causing your self to lose out on real love.so relaxe be more positive and you will get what you want.stop being jugdementall and give a guy a chance.good luck to you i wish you the best. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 10:21:36 AM | | Because we have'nt found that honest man yet. Not to sound cynical but I'm afraid by the time you get to be our age most men who are single or divorced have gotten really skilled in the lying to women department. I thought I was pretty smart but I think was just "played by a Meastro" I still like to think that all of what he told me was the truth because I went into it with an open heart, (we knew each other in jr. high & high school) and were freinds back then and did'nt think he would try to do me like that. I took everything he told me at face value. Ignoring what I beleive now were red flags but I wanted to believe him and give him the benefit of the doubt because we were such good freinds (at least I thought) in high school. I'd like to hope that I'm wrong about all this.....I really do, but its kinda up to him now. I told him I would always be his freind and be there for him. I hope one day he can straighten out his "issues" or whatever because I still do believe in him. But maybe I'm the fool? | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 12:29:10 PM | In my case, it's because I can't find anyone who shares my eternal love of the Muppets. And rubber chickens. And naked elk spearing.
*sigh*

Posted: 5/27/2008 12:39:26 PM | Ya, I get a chuckle out of most of the profiles. Never in my life have I "seen" so many, funny, smart, attractive and open minded people all in one place, lol.
These days to get a feel for a person, I just reverse whatever is says in thier profile. Tends to be closer to the truth in alot of cases.
From what I can tell, only about half the people on here are on here to talk and meet people. The rest seem to be on here for one odd reason or another.
Each to thier own. | |

Posted: 5/27/2008 1:01:34 PM | | many of us choose to be alone because we don't buy into half of the fake things put up on a profile for attention and can pick it up in a conversation with the person in a matter of minutes. | |
