| Internet dating: sucks for guys, good for women.
Posted: 12/2/2005 7:41:48 AM | | I hear you ebories,internet dating does suck for guys.I have been on here for one year now and have changed my profile many times and still nothing.I have yalked to a couple women on this who have just put up a profile a few minutes before I IM them and in that short amount of time they tell me that there are so many other guys trying to e-mail them, and then they become so popular on here they just disappear and never talk to me agian.I have been online to different sites other than this one and have been deleted and rejected more times than the pope has said the goddamn rosary.Oh and I am not an ugly looking guy either.The few that actually do talk to me dissappear when I say I am a blue collar worker.The woman in the city I live which is Toronto have such hi criteria that most guys don't even stand a chance.Like you say they stay online all day long deleting and rejecting men boosting there egos and they wouldn't know a good man if it came he came up and slapped him in the face | |

Posted: 12/2/2005 4:33:22 PM | | Exactly right. Modern Western women these days are extremely arrogant, pompous, self-centered, materialistic and superficial and they seem to think they are so special that they deserve only the very best. Only the top creme de la creme guys will get any response from them. They suck, that's all there is to say. | |

Posted: 12/2/2005 4:39:01 PM | well if thats your high opinion of women, I cannot see why you are on a dating site. If you feel that way about women, you obviously have nothing to offer one. Resentment is not a comfortable bed partner!! | |

Posted: 12/2/2005 4:46:17 PM | | I have to disagree with you and your comments about women,,,I say on my profile I will contact only women I find an intrest in,,,that seems to have gotten attention for some reason. I have a few pics nothing special, and I get messages all the time ,,and I'm short. Most women I have met are all great women in their own way,,,I say suck it up butter cup,if its not working for you,you must know what Dr phils answer would be. | |

Posted: 12/2/2005 5:22:32 PM | Hi. First at all. Please don't worry about rejections. First the girls don't know what they want. If you try chase them you'll never gonna get anything.
If you got any rejection just move on. it's better to be rejected in the beggining than late then it'll be worst for you. There's so many nice girls out there. I had been sending messages for them in this site for JUST to be friend. They don't want to be friends either. It's ridiculous. I have to laugh. The are like free little chickens running....lol.
I just know something. All my ex-girls friends I just rejected them then they became my girlfriends. It's really strange how they are but you have to understand how they are.
If you got rejected again it's good because this girl is not for you and when you realized it you can't be frustrated. It's a new experience you are getting thru. Just move on to another one. They'll follow you. This is the way! They must follow you. You don't need their approval. They need your approval.
If they don't want me they are loosing something great. I never feel bad with rejections. I jus move on. Trust me! I'm happy in this way. Good Lucky.

Posted: 12/2/2005 6:03:25 PM | | Its just very aggravating for me. I'm a good looking guy with a good photo and I never write stupid sexually suggestive messages or anything like that and I just get read deleted or read but no response or even deleted and blocked. I cant help but think why? What am I missing? It makes me feel very unworthy, I cant help it. I'm a good looking, white male, 6 feet tall, university educated and intelligent...but I just get rejected and ignored like I have some major flaw or something. I dont understand it. Women in my area are so god damn picky... | |

Posted: 12/2/2005 7:51:11 PM | Well I have no clue how it is for women, but I know for me its a big waste of time and bringer of sorrow. I dont know, maybe its better if you have a credit card and can do the pay sites.
Now I will continue on with deleteing this profile. Good luck to all. | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 1:33:11 AM | maybe we are having our answer then!! azyouwish may have pissed you off with the first line of what he said, but the rest made a lot of sense. If a woman is not interested, there is no
point she wastes time, beating around the bush trying to be polite!!
The UK must be different (unless you are way off mark) but a guy doesnt have to have a good job, have been to uni and be tall and white to expect a date. Dust bin men who do an honest days work are as attractive. Personality can mean a hell of a lot to women...women like men who can make the laugh, who look like they can see past themselves and who seem to have some depth of character.
If your true profile says anything along the lines of 'I am a tall, good looking, intelligent white male', then it would be obvious why no one is replying.
An ex of mine used to say "make 'em laugh, tell 'em you like kids"...obviously I ended it with him a long time ago lol....but my point is to some extent, it is that simple...though of course I am a harder catch (runs off with nose growing radpidly!!)  | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 2:07:22 AM | To the original poster
I must be living in an alternative reality.
I love it when men complain that women seem to get all the breaks on internet sites. It certainly doesn't apply to any of the women I know.. Put up a sexy pic? Yeah of course - and then spend all your time fending off the pervs. It's bad enough even if you come across like a nun. And would you believe it, we send off messages too and get no response.
Having our pick of men? I wish... Best joke I've heard all week.
And ok I have a silly pic, but I also have some real pics actually on the profile. Having a pic 'on offer' but not on show just doesn't cut it I'm afraid. If you are so above board and desirable, then post a pic. It's put up or shut up... | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 3:28:38 AM | | You're right, eborys. I've been on here for little over a year & all I've gotten is three women that tried to mess with my head & my heart. It sucks, but I've learned to put on armor against it by being very suspicious. It's not all bad though, ...I've made some friends on here. Carribeanking, for instance, has tried to be a great help to me by critiqueing my profile when something's not quite right in it. | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 4:51:29 AM | well eborys
I being a woman read your post and beleive that you may need to take a lighter look at the
whole idea of finding your one and only. As the old saying goes its whats on the inside not the outside. Then again I may be one of the few people we still feel that inner beauty is stronger than that of outer. OK OK yeah looks matter but what I am saying is that when I look at profiles I read what is typed. And alot of you men just dont type. I have found very very few that tell me about you, about your likes, and most of all most are to short.
I have not been in this site for long but have had the chance to contact a few men. And yes I sent the first email. Im sure most of the ladies on here would agree that the first contact should not be "so when do we go to bed"..............as I have found to get alot of. So to all you guys that feel the same as eborys take a little advice, be your selfs, talk about yourself and what ya like, leave the sex part go and get to know the lady first, that part will come soon if your patient.
So ya I would not reply to sexual emails! Mkes me thing all ya want is the sex and not the heart behind the name. I want words!!!!!!!!!! Tell me who you are and what ya like!
Spice up your profile a little, tell us about you, your likes dislikes. DONT leave blanks or answer with "I'll tell ya later" that makes for an instant drop of my attention! | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 7:01:24 AM | Hey, All!
The original poster may have created a weak profile and shabby attitude toward internet dating, but he originated a very strong and provocative thread that is at 100+ posts! That, pof people, is the energy that this guy needs to mend his outlook! | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 8:28:36 AM | Interesting site,
Still think its best to find and meet new friends in person, photos can mislead, so much can be false in what a person states.
Funny chuckle is a person who is 500 pounds saying they are thin and fit.

And you wonder why internet dating sucks for you? seriously!! I'd hazard to guess that if you come across the same way in real life that all prospects of dating would suck for you.
You've either posted that as a way to get attention, or you just don't have a clue.
 And yeah I do deserve the best... but that does not make me arrogant, pompous, self centred, materialistic or superficial. However a comment like that may make YOU appear less than intelligent.

Posted: 12/3/2005 2:23:32 PM | Maybe if everyone quit worrying and complaining about who has what better, and which sexe has the advantage, we'd all get somewhere.
I email men first...some email me first...who cares. Why let someone you think might be the one get away just because you're bitter because she/he didn't msg you first. And if she/he doesn't reply for whatever reason...don't worry about it, not EVERYONE has the same taste. you can't be the perfect guy/girl for EVERY person. I mean really, c'mon we're all supposed to be adults here. This is supposed to be fun, I can't imagine that each one of you hasn't made atleast 1 good friend on this site....friends are as important as boyfriends or girlfriends....plussssss that friend you made might just have a friend that will be your perfect match...or even a few of them!! lol
Who said this was gonna be easy?? exactly...suck it up and move on
Is being single really THAT bad??? I don't think it is, been 3 yrs and I'm still alive and smiling, how bout that. lol | |

Posted: 12/3/2005 10:40:33 PM | Eborys, are you saying that if a female states that they are thin, attractive, and friendly they will get a ton of responses, and that thin, attractive, and friendly men will not?

Posted: 12/3/2005 11:10:29 PM | Ooooh good grief!!! OP - if you want to catch a few fish, you need to post a picture of yourself. In fact, post 3 pics of yourself. A close up of your face; a full body shot; and one of you having fun (perhaps in a sport or activity you enjoy doing).
Your interests, about me, and first date is so vague. You've gotta sell yourself in your profile. You have to rise above all of the other guys out there.
Now, about the whining of the ratio of men to women, I hear what you're saying at your age group. My dear, wait until you get to my age group, the tables totally turn.. Now, go have some cheese with that whine. | |

Gotta agree with that.
Also, OP, your attitude is bound to show through on your profile. So change your attitude! Looking like Brad Pitt in your avatar picture will get the woman to click on your profile but if your current attitude shines through then it's all over. | |
