I'm not SERIOUSLY looking to get married!
Hell, I'm not even jokingly looking to get married!
I'm not against the possibility of getting married.
But I've come to accept the fact that I probably won't ever get married.
I mean, whose to say that I'll ever find a woman that is WORTH marrying?
I'd probably have better luck winning the lottery!
Guess that I'd better start playing huh? LOL | |

Then why do I have so many female friends on online dating sites telling me a different story. Seems of the 8 of us... all met men that were looking for long term and yet all they wanted was "SEX".
When you're 19 or 20 -- perhaps inexperience doesn't tell you that long-term compatibility and sexual compatibility are pretty close cousins. Well, they often eat at the same restaurant, anyway.
After the age of 35, well, experience tells you this is a strong factor in long-term compatibility. Anyone who, after the age of 35, is willing to start seriously working towards a LTR (which to me means "with the intent we're together until one of us passes away" in theory but not always in practice), without having tested whether or not there is some large degree of sexual compatibility is well.... acting like a 19 or 20 year old doe-eyed idealist.
So -- "all they wanted was SEX" -- how do you know? Maybe they wanted, as stated, long-term relationships and yet weren't willing to start building picket-fences in their daydreams until they knew there was something of a sexual connection?
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men (and women)? | |

Posted: 12/16/2008 4:46:58 PM | I came up with a funny for the "NO PIC-NO REPLY":
When I'm making 7 figures a year, sailing on my yacht in the Carribean, and slurping caviar off the nekkid body of a 25-year-old $10k a night hooker...
I'LL POST PLENTY OF PICS THEN!!!

Posted: 12/16/2008 4:55:07 PM | "MEN .... I'm just curious! Are any of you on here SERIOUSLY looking for a long term relationship with hopes of it leading to marriage? "
Well, Leafchick, let me put it this way: If I found a woman that actually knows what love, love based upon friendship, knows how to give instead of just take, loyalty over the long term, and isn't on the lookout for the bigger, better deal, I might consider marriage. However, I have yet to meet such a woman and am beginning to doubt such a woman who isn't already attached exists. If I meet one, it will likely be entirely by accident. I have all but given up at this point, and channeling what effort I used to put into that lost cause into other areas of my life. I would be willing to try were there reason to, but right now I see no reason to bother. | |

Posted: 12/17/2008 10:00:25 PM | I would say "yes" I am looking for a LTR leading to marriage, sex before marriage a necessity.
And "no" to your suggestion that 'until something better comes along' because when I am with a woman I am only with her. I do not even 'flirt' when I am out with friends, etc. because I am working on the relationship that God has blessed me with.
My final defense would be just 'Brad and Angelina' and also 'Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed', as to LTR's without marriage. I don't know what they have got but in two public cases it seems to be working... | |

Posted: 12/17/2008 11:48:22 PM | | morgh1701, At 41 , Im in the same boat as you in regards to having a hard time finding younger girls willing to date a guy my age, much less girls young enough to not already have kids too. And, Id like to date girls young enough to have some kids with me (say 30-34 yrs old) Ive noticed on match.com and other dating sites that 70-80% of the ladies dont want to go above 4 years to their age. On the other hand, many foreign ladies actually prefer men 10-20 years their senior. Try overseas. check out some of the foreign dating sites. There are many college educated intelligent english speaking woman who arent age difference sensitive like American ladies tend to be. Unlike what most americans would think, it has nothing to do with them thinking a older man is more well off. Its because they find these men more stable, settled , and more reliable/dependable in relationship and family matters than the younger guys are. | |

Posted: 12/18/2008 10:10:29 PM | well i am only 34,so i have a few months till that barrier,but ive wanted to get married since i was a teenager,i believe its the ultimate way of proving your undying love and devotion to the person you share your life with.
marriage should'nt be taken lighly either,it's a natural progression in the journey of a persons life and,when they feel that they are ready to spend the rest of their lives devoted to one person,then thats when they should start talking about it.
i think too many people are happy to just live as a couple these days,and dont really consider what marriage is about,the bond it provides,and the strength it brings to a relationship,so yes i definately want to get married,its just a matter of finding a woman who feels the same,because i've been in relationships before and the subject was almost as if it was a taboo,but we live in hope,some of us,gotta have hope,if nothing else | |

Posted: 12/19/2008 4:32:47 AM | | Gasp!! Men and women being shallow?? Both sexes looking for the bigger better deal?? Perish the thought. But isn't that what society and the mass media have trained us to think? | |

Posted: 12/19/2008 12:52:46 PM | | Look at it this way... MOST people approach relationships very cautiously and as a casual thing................... I both agree and disagree with this. I agree people should be careful when picking who to date and such, BUT I also know first hand to many people out there base things on a glance at a persons picture or the words they say on thier profile, hell they might not even make it that far. Not just men Woman do it also. I have been on here a few weeks now and I put up the pic I did of me with long hair and with my nieces to find out just how many will base things on a persons picture you know Only one has even been remotely talkitive to me in 3 weeks. it';s not right at all theres careful and then theres judgemental. | |

Posted: 12/19/2008 1:26:27 PM | In my experience I think most just want to get their leg over.. There are some (well maybe) who desperately want to get tied down. I find it vey difficult to get girl/boy type relationship. In other words there's no way I would want to get married (no need too) or to be a one night stand. There just doesn't seem to be the in-between that I want. First came onto a site and said wanted casual LOL Little did I know.
In the end none of us know what will happen. Intentions go out of the window. | |

Posted: 12/20/2008 4:55:11 PM | After looking over these posts I realize why so many people are confused.
Heck! I know what marriage is. I know what a good marriage is. I had a good marriage for 26 years and change till he died from cancer. It wasn't perfect, but it was good. We both looked out for each other, knew the little quirks that could get under our skin or send us to the moon. We built a life of memories and had three children. If I could meet someone who knew how to love and would give himself like I give myself I'd get married again. Each of us want the comfort of knowing there's one person who anticipates our company, who's looking for us to come home at night. Someone we can always count on no matter how bad things get. That's my take. Marriage isn't garter belts and bedroom games. It's love that starts with a vow and grows with each day binding the two stronger and stronger. O.K. enough preaching. It's just a rainy sat. night and I feel like venting.

Posted: 12/20/2008 5:24:12 PM | I too want to get married for the first and only time. I am over 50.
I cant tell when a girl is comming on to me; or just playing. I have given up guessing
I have had girls persue me across the country, one from new york to southern california, and one from oregon to southern california. Guess I didn't act the way they wanted so they left. too bad I can't tell when they are serious  | |

Posted: 12/21/2008 5:34:11 AM | | Do you really think at my age "44" I want to bone you for a while and work up some BS relationship that I know I will have to get out of in the future? We are not 16 anymore, women my age will super glue my johnson shut. If you can't see this guy is using you to get by, your plain blind. A steady peace is nice as long as both parties agree, but you had best come out from the beginning and asked him his intentions before you slipped under the sheets. Don't act like you are the victim. | |

Posted: 12/22/2008 12:53:28 AM | I hope so.  I'm 31 and I still want to get married eventually. I think actual marriage matters. Maybe I was brought up old fashioned, but I think it's still important. | |
