| Why do women keep insisting that it's harder for them to get a date? Posted: 7/26/2005 10:48:02 AM | Maybe because some women are looking for a specific type of man, with certain attributes and are adverse to meeting men who do not meet thier standards. Perhaps they are talking about thier opinion that "bad" dates do not count.
I am not really sure, and fail to understand why some women say this, I guess each woman has their personal reasons. Some may be putting out the wrong signals subconciously to sabotage their love lives because they are afraid of being hurt. I don't think there is a general answer to this question. | |

Posted: 7/26/2005 10:57:06 AM | Just a minute here....so if a guy who doesn't appeal to me at all either physcially or mentally sends me an email and wants to meet me, I have to say yes? It doesn't happen all that often, but I reserve the right to meet who I choose, thank you.
A first meet is NOT a date. It is a meeting, nothing more. Hell, 50% of the time, the guy doesn't even show up! I count it as a date if someone I have already met in person wants to go do something.... | |

But anyway...as I said...women may not find dates for different reasons. | |

Posted: 7/26/2005 11:29:48 AM | | I am just tired of people assuming that because I am single and dateless that it is because there is something wrong with me or that I am too picky. No one ever stops to consider that maybe I am dateless and single because guys aren't interested. | |

It is like walking with a pebble in your shoe. The discomfort spoils the fun. The Jockey brand makes some good women's underwear that is wider so it doesn't ride up. I don't wear it myself but my ex used to always complain about hers, then she found Jockey's, and her life improved considerably. | |

One's outlook and their resulting assessment of the world depends in large part on their having or not any particular situational factors. If one has an unresolved issue it will doom their expectations. If one feels badly it will color their perception darkly. If some psychic distortion makes dating look unfun, it will prove to be dismal. If they have their panties in a bunch life will be uncomfortable. If the idea is that dating sucks and men are doorknobs, then finding and enjoying dates won't happen. | |

The purpose of dating is not to split the cost of a date. if that were the case women would just go out with other women.
The intent of most is to date nice gentlemen in the hope of meeting mr right and making a love connection. If the woman pays for the date that defeats the purpose and sets a bad precedent in that the man who accepts such a situation is mostly going to turn out to be a free loader and she is back to square one again...looking for dates.
women have more trouble finding men because it is not a societal norm for them to go out "alone" in search for companionship. Men on the other hand do have this kind of freedom, within societal norms. Therefore, women become more dependent on other avenues such as the internet. And we all know what a jungle that can be. | |

It is so much easier for a woman to get a date, if they want, than a guy could ever dream of, that much is true.
I do feel for the ladies though when they get a ton of emails only to delete most after all the, hehehehe you purty lemmy see boobies, lines they get. As for the guys that stand you all up, this goes for guys too. If someone stands you up and doesn't even have the manners to call and tell you why, then you all are so much better off. If they do that crap, they aren't worth the time.
A woman will get offers for dates, it's up to her whether to accept. Guys rarely have that choice unless they created it.

So, what you're saying is that it's a man's responsibility to make a love connection and pay for everything, while the woman just sits back and gets wooed? To say that a female paying for a date defeats the purpose of going out, or that a man who allows a woman to exercise equality in the relationship will more than likely be a "free loader" says a lot more about your character than it does any man's. The guy who mentioned perception becoming reality only needs to look at your post to define what he meant. The "good old days" mentality can't work to your advantage all of the time. | |

Posted: 7/26/2005 11:54:36 AM | | Sometimes a woman is reaching for the deoderant and it's dark and she's in a hurry and instead of deoderant she accidentally grabs the date repellant and puts it on. Then she goes all day smelling like "don't get near me" and comes home dateless. Installing a medicine chest with a light will help prevent this. | |

I have a circle of friends that does include some women all have bfs or husbands. When we all hang out I cannot remember the last time we went out somewhere and they all didn't get asked out. Every woman I have ever met has said it is way easier for a woman to get a date than a guy. Your one of the first one that I have heard say it aint so.
Maybe your location? I mean, fox, it's gotta be something like that because you are way too attractive, witty and intellegent, to not attract guys if you went out somewhere. Maybe all the guys in your area are gay? | |
