Stage two is to get a car with bling... Do you think I should get a Tarted Up Honda Civic with an exhaust I can fit my head in or should I get a Cadillac Escalade? Both of these would have stereos that go BOOM BOOM BOOM and windows so dark you'd have trouble seeing out of them in the day.

Or maybe I should get a Pontiac Fiero with a Ferrari body kit... Hmmm... Hey why is thinking starting to hurt?

Stage three is to get rid of my inner substance. I think I'll start by reading Cosmo and Muscle and Fitness magazine... then brush up on my txt speak... and then work on losing all inner feeling.

Stage Four... Start to define myself by the gadgets I own... A good starting point is to get an IPhone, find some friends who like to talk about nothing all day so I can futz with my IPhone all the time and keep it permanently logged into Facebook.



ok, this is creepy. You are describing someone I went out with a couple months ago. OK, the guy did have a drop dead beautiful face, and was extremely well put together. He even had the black escalade with the tinted windows.. the constantly going iphone (he did actually let it ring though) and the huge toys.

Only thing was, he didn't start out shallow. First meet he was brilliant, extremely diverse, in the same field as me so we could both talk shop and get what the other was putting up with, compassionate in world views, world traveled, EXTREMELY interesting.

We ended up on a five hour date. But the second he decided I "passed" and that he wanted to date me, every topic stopped from him but one. Every single sentence he initiated was a comeon. Every single sentence I initiated was responded to with a comeon.

I kept waiting for the interesting diverse guy I was totally wowed by, but he could ONLY talk about well, you know. (I mean a little on that subject is fine, sure, but not every single word of every single sentence from every single topic).

Irony was, he said he liked dating me because I wasn't shallow, was intelligent and could talk about anything... but how the heck would he have known that since no topic was allowed but getting it on? Only thing worse than shallow is one dimensional. What a waste...



Remind me if you do your four stage process to run screaming for the hills lol.

Well, after meeting several men who bore no resemblance whatsoever to their photo's, being at least 8 years and several stone out of date, I thought I had finally found "The One", gorgeous, sexy, kind, thoughtful. He then went to work in Spain for 2 weeks, and I got a call from his mobile from a woman who had seen my texts, so I also wonder now, are there any good, and HONEST, single men out there?

Nope... there are NO GOOD MEN LEFT. None. Nada. Aucun. Nichts. Nessuno.

I'm a good guy except I'm separated and have Poly attitudes now... so I'm going to Hell.

My best friend is practically engaged.

My two brothers are taken.

And everyone else is Bad.

He's right.

There's just guys like me, left.

Deal with it....

Moonbeamlover,


ok, this is creepy. You are describing someone I went out with a couple months ago. OK, the guy did have a drop dead beautiful face, and was extremely well put together.




YOU are exactly what I'm talking about about how many SAY they want one thing and go for another. Most do this subconsciously.

See? Being shallow and having lots of bling works on the dating scene. Being deep and honest... not so much.

And actually I'm describing a composite of Shallow Bling Guys I see girls going for.

Oh and I already have a new name for the New Shallow Me... Fivush Wienermeister... But his friends call him Joe.


Only thing was, he didn't start out shallow.


Yes he did... you were just bedazzled with his gorgeous looks and the "Good Life" his toys suggested you would have if you hooked up with him.



And just because someone travels, has no bearing on whether they're shallow.


I kept waiting for the interesting diverse guy I was totally wowed by, but he could ONLY talk about well, you know.


Nooooo... .... I don't know... .... please enlighten me ... ... I have *no* idea of what he would ONLY talk about...


Irony was, he said he liked dating me because I wasn't shallow,


The moral of that story is that he probably dated someone with even less depth in their pond than he had in his... And all the fishies in his pond (his brain cells) didn't have enough water to survive and were dying off by getting beached because the shallow girl he dated before was draining what little water he had left.


So he needed to date you to replenish some of what he lost by dating you...

Oh I just remembered... another good way to learn how to be shallow is to watch the movie "Barcelona" repeatedly until I start to identify with the characters rather than loathe them. This would be part of stage 3.

how so? I did not pick him over anyone else; I met him during a period of time I met a couple other people. No preferential treatment, no picking him OVER anyone else,.



Oh and I already have a new name for the New Shallow Me... Fivush Wienermeister... But his friends call him Joe.


wow, that's quite a mouthful lol





Yes he did... you were just bedazzled with his gorgeous looks and the "Good Life" his toys suggested you would have if you hooked up with him.


ok, now I'm getting ticked off just a little. I didn't KNOW he drove the dang escalade until the third date, I didn't see any of the toys til the second date. And it was after knowing of both I still quit dating him altogether. I will admit I was a TAD admiring of his face; but I have dated many conventionally beautiful people before and I can take it or leave it, in fact for a while I got so cynical I woudln't date someone conventionally beautiful becasue I had hit so many who were utterly empty beneath their face (no exceptions at all for years) that I avoided them like the plague for a while. ( though I will confess he was a type I am particularly partial to) and I take strong exception to being told I was viewing him for gold digging in life; fact of the matter is, I have a pretty dang decent life without anyone's help or anyone else's toys; I do not prefer anyone because of what they have or do not have, and i have never dated or not dated based on someone's earnings, toys or house (or looks for that matter). I have enough on my own, I pay my own way, I work dang hard, and I do not gold dig. so no offense, but you are WAY out in left field on this one. Beyond belief.




And just because someone travels, has no bearing on whether they're shallow.


it wasn't just the traveling; it was the being curious about different cultures, different people, different ways of life, current events, history, science, he could talk about anything whatsoever and be extremely comfortable with it; he was a blast to talk with. Not even including sharing the same profession and understanding some of the weird situations that are hit. Again, your cynicism is showing. You are so convinced you are right you are filtering in a place that does not deserve a filter, though I can understand why you want there to be one. but I can tell you in this case you are wrong. Way wrong. At least on me, but I know there are some women who do what you say. I am, though, not one of them. Not even a little.


I kept waiting for the interesting diverse guy I was totally wowed by, but he could ONLY talk about well, you know.


Nooooo... .... I don't know... .... please enlighten me ... ... I have *no* idea of what he would ONLY talk about...


tiddlywinks...

And all the fishies in his pond (his brain cells) didn't have enough water to survive and were dying off by getting beached because the shallow girl he dated before was draining what little water he had left.


that's just it. He was deep until he decided to one track mind it... when he wanted to he could and did talk about anything and everything, intelligently and with great passion. He was excited about being able to talk about anything and everything. Until his brain short circuited and he became a one subject repeater... ad nauseum.



So he needed to date you to replenish some of what he lost by dating you...


gee, thanks.... lucky me...

Sure you did. You went for his Gorgeous Face and Body rather than his Inner Beauty. And you picked him over... ummm... me for example... or Michael (who posted earlier in the thread)... or Verityone...

Well I think being insecure about one's own name can help one be shallow. But it's just a hunch...


ok, now I'm getting ticked off just a little. I didn't KNOW he drove the dang escalade until the third date, I didn't see any of the toys til the second date. And it was after knowing of both I still quit dating him altogether.


Alright, I'll let you off the hook...

You know I'm just teasing right? I don't *really* think you're shallow...

But let's be honest... everyone loves a pretty face. I do too. Even I admit that I won't date a woman with the best personality in the world if she's built like a 400 pound linebacker.


Nooooo... .... I don't know... .... please enlighten me ... ... I have *no* idea of what he would ONLY talk about...

tiddlywinks...


I Looooveee tiddlywinks... ... but I prefer to play it rather than talk about it though...



that's just it. He was deep until he decided to one track mind it...


I bet if I was just hanging around and observing, I would have seen that you only viewed him as "deep" until you came to your senses.


So he needed to date you to replenish some of what he lost by dating you...
gee, thanks.... lucky me...


Well look at the bright side... you have another story to tell your grandkids...
So when you see your grandson going out with some floosy or your granddaughter going out with a dork, you can say "You know, I went through a shallow period too... "
