| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/27/2008 4:49:17 PM | Well, as others have said, due to the lack of letters in my inbox, I am apparently undateable.
I am a single mom I am heavier than I should be I wear glasses I have an overbite I overplucked my eyebrows and now must draw them in I hate housework and paper just seems to exponentially multiply when it comes into my house. I love reality TV (well some of it anyway) I read romance novels ( and if the guys are wondering why vampire romance novels are the thing right now -- in all the series the guy is biochemically tied to you and CANNOT leave)
If I didn't have low self esteem before I started reading these threads, well anyone would for sure now.
To balance it all off, I am a great mom I am very empathetic I am very affectionate, my family easily showed love, so I am a compulsive hugger I am a good cook I have a strong believe in God(not preachy religious, just very personal and quiet faith)
So, although the inbox is empty despite lots of people having a look, I know I am a good person.  | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/27/2008 7:57:40 PM | | I am a massage therapist with over a half a million dollars. I have assets. I belong to a large church, with lots of nice friends, and good quality events, BBQ;s, parties, clubs that I frequent, with lots of laughter. I am semi-retired and have time to rest and enjoy life, but have a skill in high demand. I am good at my work, and do not want to quite completely. The guy who ends up with me will not have to worry over finances, pain in his body, money, or having a deep barrel of Christian friends to draw from. This is as good as it gets. | |

Nonsense. You're absolutely dateable. Work on your self esteem. Go for a walk every day, at least 20 minutes' worth. You'll begin to feel better physically and emotionally.
Get some more pictures of yourself and change them often. Try different poses, different outfits (don't tell me you're the only woman on Planet Earth with only 2 outfits).
The problem isn't you. Maybe you haven't presented yourself in the right light. Try different things, work on the profile, show us you have a sense of humor- in the forums, if not in your profile. The trick is to get noticed, by the kind of guy you want to attract.
I myself need to refresh my own pictures, they're a couple months old. Fortunately, digital pictures don't cost much, except for disturbing a few electrons. | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/28/2008 1:00:20 PM | LOL this is not a question I had really considered, but here goes ....
I am 45 years old. This means that I do not look 20 anymore, but am still nice looking, with most people guessing me 5-10 years younger than I am. Not too bad! YES all my pics are recent within the last week or so.
I am funny, hard-working, great cook, SANE with good common sense. Most of the time I have excellent people radar equipped with state of the art WaddyaWant meter. I am fairly frugal with money (cause there isn't alot of it). I know right from wrong and I well known to do the right thing, not the easy thing. I have NO DRAMA and don't allow any. I don't do drugs and seldom ever drink.
I am NOT rich, college-educated, or a bedhopper. I need do to lose about 20 lbs due to an accident last year which cause me to be laid up for a few months ... am working on this and have lost a size already. It will happen :) Any guy that holds this against me ... well ... nuff said.
I am talented, musical, creative, and most of all -
I am happy!
Cheers!  | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/28/2008 1:09:07 PM | Beaugrand: What wonderful advice you gave. It wasn't directed at me but I plan on taking it. It is so easy to get stuck in a rut...sometimes we just need to shake things up. Thanks.
This thread has turned out to be pretty fun...some wonderful posts have been made. Not to mention the ones that had me ---> 
Thanks! | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/28/2008 1:25:37 PM | I love this question.. What a way to make you think. I think the best think I ever WROTE on a profile is "Don't need a man to take care of me and don't want one." Too many men think that women want and need a man to run their lives for them- and lots of us do not. I sure can't go on looks - so there must be something else there cause I haven't had any problems finding dates. Problems finding ones I wanted - oh yeah!! Unfortunately for both sexes - looks are the first thing most people go for. Hurts those of us who are not good looking - but at least we do end up with some of the world's less shallow members.  | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 7/28/2008 4:44:25 PM | Why would anyone want to date me? Hmmmmm..... 1) I am honest 2) I am lovable 3) I love to make people laugh 4) I am a good listener 5) I am a good kisser 6) I am trusting 7) I can cook 8) I bake you a birthday cake every year 9) I love to do outdoor activities 10) Where is there not to love about me if you don't give it a chance!
I dunno, I don't get very many guys knocking on my door or begging me for a date. The ones that do beg me for a date is totally not my type at all!!! And when I do get a date, I begin to like him and all heck broke loose...... my luck I guess. I've been single for 2 years and I've had a meet date here and there but no real date to speak of. I finally got a hug from a guy over the weekend that I haven't had in a loooooong time! I haven't kissed a guy since my ex hub almost 2 yrs ago. I just hope and pray and not give up. | |

Well, why not...?
That's a pretty good question to help build up one's self-esteem! Hmmm. Let's see:
--You can take me out in public! --I'm not picky about food preferences (so, you don't have to worry about me doing these really annoying special orders...) --I am easily entertained (yep, I'll laugh at your jokes!) --You can introduce me to your friends without embarrassment --I bring my own money (good thing!) --Very little baggage (maybe enough to fill a very small purse, but that's it)
So, again, why not? | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 8/1/2008 9:56:12 PM | 1 I can have 13 different conversations about the same thing. 2 I'll eat what you leave on your dinner plate. 3 Rather than read your body language... I'll watch it. 4 Breakfast in bed. 5 Morning breath. 6 I always look better when you are around. 7 You'll always be the more attractive one of the couple. 8 I know nothing... you'll appear to be genius. | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 8/4/2008 3:25:34 PM | Why would anyone want to date me? LOL Isn't this what our profiles are basically for??
Well, let's see....I am fun and funny! I have a wicked sense of humor! I am a great conversationalist/communicator, but more importantly, I am an even better listener! :)
I can be taken home to meet the 'rents or the kids...I can mingle with the colleagues as needed...I can throw a hella party and I am a kick ass hostess!
I know the true meaning of friendship, loyalty, confidence, trust, and honesty...and I practice all of the above!
I can dress it up, or dress it down and be equally comfortable! I make the person I am affectionate with, feel like the ONLY man in the world! I believe people are EQUALS.
I am easy on the eyes, too! Oh,....and I am litter trained! :) LOL Ok...that last one was silly...but I am able to be off my leash! | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 8/4/2008 3:35:17 PM | This is a fun thread.. THANKS.... I would answer with the following .... I love to explore.. not a home body---though can be comfortable at home for periods of time ...and love to keep a nice happy home fire burning... I LOVE sex... love to explore.. love to try new ways of sharing it ... so I'm not the kind of gal who goes frigid in a long term situation...
I work ... earn my own money. I'm not rich, but I do like to carry my own and yet I dont mind sharing ... ( of course expect the same from a man).
I am educated and continue growing and learning ... so I'm not a bore to talk to .. can explore many subjects with educated men ....
I am affectionate, attentive, romantic and love children. I am not shallow in that I dont care if a man is overweight by 30-70 pds (I am 5'9, 229 so I am sensitive about that), I dont mind a bald head, I dont mind a lot of things.. except for smoking-- cant stand that and of course, I dont smoke, I dont drink (except for an occassional celebration) and do not nor NEVER have had reason to use drugs.
I am active -- even though plump-- love to walk, swim and enjoy activities ....
I will pay attention to you--- give you gifts, kiss you for no reason, offer PDA'S, send a card to your mother .... I even studied voice for several years and can sing you a lullaby in bed or write you a love poem that will win an award or be published in a book someday...
I will remember you ....
I will write you and comfort you if you're overseas in uniform... I will remain faithful if you remain the same for me. I will make each and every day one to remember if you remember to remember me ... :)
My greatest weakness is giving too much and scaring a man off. My greatest weakness is being overly hopeful... wanting love so much that I forget not all men want the same. I hope these are good enough reasons for a man to want to date me..... But why am I still SINGLE? | |

| Why would anyone want to date you? Posted: 8/4/2008 3:49:59 PM | Hmmmmmm, let's see. Why would anyone want to date me?
1) I will make you laugh. It's a fact. 2) Then, in the next couple of minutes I'll have you pondering the meaning of life. 3) I've never spent time in prison; nor have my kids. 4) I'm almost 5'9", so I can reach stuff on the top shelf. And, I reach for the top shelf ... always. 5) I can't tell a lie. My face gives it away. 6) Can't beat you at poker either, for the same reason. 7) I speak fluent pig latin. With a French accent. 8) I love to cook for two. 9) I have a hot tub on the patio. 10) It's surrounded by tall shrubbery. | |
