I'm sure there are plenty of good men left, but would the ladies want to date them?
"I'm sure there are plenty of good women left, but would the men want to date them?"
See how easy it is to change a couple of words and BAM...you have exactly the way women feel! | |

Posted: 2/22/2009 10:03:59 PM | | There are nice guys out there but some of them appear to be too busy for whatever reason... or you just don't have enough time for one another & vice versa. If you want something to work out you both have to make equal amount of time. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 12:22:09 PM | | well, i suppose there must be some left, but where? In my experience all men want nowadays is to pleasure themselves on cam with u, talk dirty or meet u, use u and dump u. Men dont seem to want to be in a relationship anymore or show any commitment. Shame really, looks like im gonna be single for a long long time. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 12:49:00 PM | | If you find a "good man", he gets cold feet!!! Realizes that since he has been on his own too dang long and makes his "job" the priority versus "you". I agree with you JU440, there are way too many of the "pleasure themselves" out there, which means no commitment. Guess their profiles really don't reflect what they are wanting on POF. Guys out there! Listen Up! Be honest .. if you want a friend with benefits or if you really want that long term relationship. Take a "self-evaluation" before typing all that mushy crap when you are feeling lonely and only put what you are really looking for on POF. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 4:10:05 PM | Definately! And I applaud every good man out there that has the strength to be true to himself despite the fact that society is trying to convince him that he is worthless or nonexistent or supposed to be a jerk instead!!!  | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 5:14:02 PM | | I completely think there are some great men left out there. I have met many, many great men, even on here! Just the chemistry was not there. Sometimes we have expectations and a cookie cutter idea of what we would like and if it is not there, we run away from something that is awesome. I am guilty of that myself at times. But, there are men with great hearts and ideals, some on here really want to commit and settle down..... | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 5:16:08 PM | ^^^^^^^@xeno07..I agree with you 100%
Too many women are so full of themselves, they have this holyer then tho attitude and expect a man to fall head over heels for them..Hello, have you ever thought about treating a man like a man? not like a loser?
Look at how the men are portrayed on tv? they are seen as idiots. and now look at how women are portrayed, they can whore around and dress like skanks and its seen as "independent and powerful"
Get over yourselves "ladies" ( i use the term loosely) and climb down from your pedistal and treat a man like he is number one in your life and watch the response you will get from him. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 8:11:55 PM | WOW, Never saw this question before.
YES, there are.
NO, you won't find them by asking: ARE THERE ANY GOOD MEN LEFT.
BECAUSE, good men HATE this question, at least I do.
Lazy people ask this question. Look around in different places and you'll find different kinds of people. If you have to ask, you're probably not widening your scope. | |

Posted: 2/23/2009 11:13:40 PM | ~OP~ I know lots of good men. I've dated some, had long-term relationships with a few and married one. My step-father is one, my son is one and 80% of my closest friends are good men. I have NO idea where all of this flippin' bashing men crap comes from. If you don't like the toys in the sandbox, play on the swings (i.e.: switch teams.) Better yet? Deal with the underlying issues which cause so much bitterness.  | |

Its good to see women out there who actually see the light. If many to most women out there didn't place themselves above men, none of this "there are no decent men" nonsense would exist. The fault with these women is that they don't know how to appreciate men, most of us are worthless and disposable to them and yet, we are supposed to respect them and be positive in return.
AMEN!!
This question really irks me. There are good men everywhere. I'm not saying "all" women are this way but if the grand majority would get there head out of there a.r.s.e.s they could see the "good" guy standing right in front of them. So far i have had pretty good luck on here. Most women answer my messages. Some don't. The ones that don't i don't give a second thought to. I move on. But it seems that i am the minority. There are more men that get ignored than they are that don't. So far the biggest two excuses i have read here on these forums for reason women ignore messages is because' "I read his profile and looked at his pictures and i just didn't think we were a match" Sorry' But this is about the dumbest statement i have seen so far. How anyone can go by a picture and a few words in a profile and decide from that there not interested is beyond me. If i discriminated that way with every womans profile i have looked at i would prob' never write the first one. And i would have never met the fine women i have already met on here. The second worst excuse i have read so far is' " I don't return messages because some guy cussed me out because i told him i wasn't interested." Bull shyt excuse #2. Just because some jerk out there got his fruit of the looms in a wad and said something nasty doesn't give you the right to be nasty to some other guy. Two wrongs don't make a right. The guy you ignore could be the guy you been looking for. If somebody says something nasty to you they don't have to do it but once. Put them on your block list. End of problem. Ladies' Answer your messages. Give that guy that you might think isn't your match a chance. He may be that good guy you been looking for. Don't just go by a few words and a picture in a profile. If you do that you will never get anywhere. Lonely you will be. Ladies' The block button is you friend. Press that button and that's the end of the idiot that can't take no for a answer. Answer your messages. Don't throw all the apples away just because a few are bad. I have heard this question asked more times than i can count. Look right in front of you. That good guy you been looking for is prob standing right there close to you. You just can't see him. If you do like i have seen women do' You will stand on your tip toes to look over the good guy standing in front of you just lust after the ar.s.e hole that will make you miserable if you get with him.  | |

Posted: 2/25/2009 1:06:20 AM | | Many men look at profiles and judge the person by a picture and a few words or a sentence or two. Plenty of these men are probably good men, they are seeking a particular type of woman, and if the picture or words does not match who they are seeking they move on to another profile... I have received my share of replies from men who said that I sounded great from my profile, but they were turned off because I have not been married, do not have children and am a short, larger woman who has brown hair. I cannot fathom why those things are so much of a problem, as I am open minded about a man's appearance, do not judge him due to the fact that he is single, divorced or widowed, and view a man's personality and character as being the most important aspects in the total equation for me. I also do not understand why they respond to me at all to tell me what is "wrong " with me in their eyes, etc.....as I respond to men who interest me after reading their profile and do not tell them what I find unappealing about their profiles. My idea of a good man is probably totally different from another woman's idea, as what constitutes being " good" is subjective. | |

Hee. I wrote to a guy and pointed out all the things we had in common and he wrote back and said we aren't a good match. I think it is a polite way of telling someone they don't find you attractive. It's no better or worse than being ignored and it sends the same message. You can't force someone to want to get to know you.
I am actually back here after a break. I met a guy from here and I thought things were going well until he did that old disappearing act. He was going through a rough patch and cut him some slack. Come to find out that while he was "too busy/upset/whatever" to respond to me (how heartless to you have to be to not tell a person who is concerned about you that you are ok?) he still had the energy to update his profile. | |

Curly' I don't see how any guy could ignore you. If you were anywhere close to me ignored would never happen. But now that's just me. There's a prick in every crowd. I do not make excuses with anyone. If i go out with someone and we don't click i end it right there. Some people' Men and women just don't have the guts to speak up. Some just don't want to hurt another persons feelings. But in the end they wind up doing it anyway and looking like a prick because of there excuse making. Not trying to tell you what to do or anything. Just something to think about. If a man is going through some kind of problem and he pushes you away from him he isn't the one for you. When a man really cares about a woman he will want to draw her close to him. He will share his problems with her because he doesn't want to lose her. If he pushes you away because of his "rough patch" it's just a excuse to get away. Don't sweat him.

I get what your saying. But i have looked at many profiles. Out of all the profiles i have looked at there pictures never did them justice either way. Good or bad. I'm gonna be ugly here i guess but many' many women i have met here looked different in person than they did in there pictures. Some looked better in there pictures than they did in person. Some looked better in person. Some of the ones i have gone out with' There profile sucked. But once i was out with them i saw a side of each one of them that was not written in there profile. Some' When i saw that side made them more attractive to me. Some' Well' Some repulsed me..But what i am saying here if i did like the majority of people seem to do here i would never have met some of the most wonderful women that i have met here. No matter how good the pictures' Even if you write a book about yourself in your profile the person reading your profile and looking at your pictures can never really know if there attracted to you until they meet you face to face. There are plenty of good men/women out there. But until some of the women/men get there heads out of there a.r.s.e there never gonna see what's right there in front of them. | |

Eddie, you are too kind. I won't get into it here but there was more going on with this guy than I originally knew. I'm lucky that I didn't invest too much time in him. I feel sorry for the next woman he meets because he will be her problem.
The point I wanted to make is that while I know there are good men out there, it isn't always easy to tell right away if a guy is really one or if he is putting on an act. That's why I think men are under the impression women like "bad men." You have to understand they made us believe they were good and then they changed. I'm a tusting person so I get tricked from time to time but I try not to let it disillusion me.
BTW, my "not a good guy pretending to be one" was rated a five on POF (he had one 10 and that was from a guy  ) lest you all think I was blinded by his beauty. | |

Posted: 2/26/2009 4:12:21 AM | | Yes, there are certainly a lot of 'good men' out there. I found one of the best. You have to be willing to move beyond the shallow waters when fishing and look deeper than the surface. -uMy guy is a 'diamond in the rough' that I nearly passed up until I got to know him. I would trade all the 'prince charmings' in the world for what I have now. They are out there, ladies. Never judge a book by it's cover. Sometimes the best stories lie within the most worn pages. | |

Posted: 2/26/2009 4:29:02 AM | I absolutely believe there are ALOT of GOOD men left..........I think for those who do not believe this that perhaps they are limiting themselves to the men they meet. I have met a plethora of GREAT men...and continue to meet more along my journey of "singleness".
I also have nothing but good things to say about POF...even though there can be some bad apples in the pie just as there is in "real" life. As in off-site dating, you just have to weed out the ones that don't appeal to you. I have met several really nice guys and have lots of fun when we meet up. | |

Curly' It's sad i know' There are a lot of guys out there that "think" they know what they want when they really don't. You would think that by the time one gets to our age they would know what they want by then. And worse' The ones who talk the talk but can't walk the walk. There are times i wonder myself about this "bad boy" thing. It does seem sometimes the sorrier a guy is the more women you see falling all over him. The worse he treats her the more she falls all over him. Me personally' I refuse to be that way. I am Eddie' What you see is what you get. I am a good guy with a big loving heart. I am going to remain that way because i like myself just the way i am. There are guys that change themselves to be the bad boy because they feel like they get more attention from women by being that way. Maybe they do. I don't know for sure. All i do know is "To thine self be true" I can't be something I'm not. If a woman finds me unattractive because of my looks or because i am a "good guy". OK Fine with me. It's that persons loss. I will keep looking till i find one who appreciates me the way i am. If i don't' That's OK to. Rather be true to myself and alone than try to live a lie and be something i am not. These guys you come across that do like this' There not only lying to you but there lying to themselves. Your right in not letting it disillusion you. Some where around you there is a guy right for you. You will find him or he will find you. But in the meantime you have to wade through the mud and the muck. That's just the way it is.

Posted: 2/26/2009 7:48:41 PM | | Yes, there are and I happen to know one very well. Me, but we don't get any chances, I email what I think are nice women and don't get any replies. For all you ladies (I use this loosely) you are not getting any younger. Prince Charming is married and living abroad, get real. Rent the movie Marty, with Ernest Borgnine and let these guys take you for coffee or tea. You maybe surprised. One other thing were you a Princess of linage, if not, you did not stand a chance anyway? | |
