The thing is most guys want younger women and to tell the truth most women want younger men,(or at least someone still capable should things go anywhere} so where does that leave us????? So, sometimes you want to know, but you don't want to let go! LOL There are so many game players on all the dating sites, you put who you want to meet and I'll be danged if you get every reply, but that! Most of us are serious, but some just have too much baggage or problems and are not capable of understanding that.

As most of the other posters have said, we still exist. The problems are many, ranging from men simply giving up because they keep running into a continual string of profiles that are so similar that they could have been cloned from the first one. Then there are the activities that interest you. Some of the lists are so extreme that you wonder when the woman (or man) has time to sleep, never mind work or have a relationship. Sometime you get the feeling that no one wants to simply be themselves.

It's wonderful to want life to be an endlesss string of excitement, but that isn't the way life works. Certainly you can have some exciting moments, even exciting days, but there's an awful lot of ordinary mixed in. There's still meals to fix, clothes to wash, work and all the other mundane, day-to-day activities that's a normal part of living.

Some posters have mentioned photos that don't match the person. It's one thing to put your best foot (or face) forward, but fantasy is another thing entirely. That, in turn, causes problems for those of us who are fortunate enough to look younger than our chronological age. Even when the photo is accurate, no one believes it.

Finally, the older you get, the harder it is to find someone. This is due in large part to the fact that so many of us tend to buy in to the stereotype image that society has created. To wit: If you're a certain age, you must look a certain way, act a certain way, talk a certain way and want the same things that others in your age group want. Well, hey, that isn't necessarily true. Just take people at face value, treat them the way you want to be treated and let nature take it's course. Maybe something will click between the two of you and maybe it won't....but whatever happens, it'll be real.

Just a few...or maybe a bunch...of thoughts.

Well, if we knew the answer to that, I don't think we'd be here looking for 'em.

The good men are here in Ft Worth. Trouble is, most ladies want younger men, dont know why, but its ok. I perfer a mature lady myself. I think most women think a man cannot perform or what ever at my age, you are all so wrong. Anyway, the good men in here dont have a chance for the women always seeking younger. Hope you all find the right one, stay safe-----------Ron

The good guys are out here, we are just like the good women who have been burnt and are afraid to come out. As far as sex goes, I don't think that it should even be discussed until a really good friendship is made. Also, I have found out that too many women are dependent and will do anything to get you.

I recently was contacted with several women through the site, and after the second phone call to talk to one of them, was asked about my preference for vaginal or anal sex. She said she wanted to try anal and wondered if I was interested. AND her profile said she was definitely NOT looking for an intimate encounter . . . Go figure! And another woman began bombarding me with phone calls after our second talk to tell me she loved me and really missed me. How can you miss someone you don't even know?

Kind of scary out there, isn't it? Anyway, keep up your standards and the white knight will eventually show up. He might have a little rust or tarnish on his armour, but he will know the meaning of chivalry and respect!

The reason women " cant find " the " good" guys, is because the good guys like myself have been so alienated by the passive abuse of women e.g. ingrate attitudes, insatiable desires, brutal criticism and judgement, character assassination, imasculating tirades, double standardism, and so forth, that we have essentially given up and have made ourselves unavailable. Women say they want a good guy, but they dont know how to treat a good guy when they get one.

My question is: where are the good women???

Women, if you really want a good man, make yourself more available to make a connection. Virtually everytime I approach a woman who is not wearing a ring or is with a man, I assume she is single. Hence, I have the right to engage her in conversation. The problem is, so many women will not open themselves up for men like myself to approach. Look, if you cant give a simple smile and warm eye contact, and that sort of thing, men like me will; generally assume you do not want to engage or be approached. I will never push m yself on a woman. Give me some subtle clue and I will take the bait.

Now take this advise and see if you cant find yourself a really nice guy such as myself who is looking for a really nice woman. Or, do what you always did, and get what you always got.

Most guys are into the primal pee on the tree, knock'em in the head and drag'em into the cave testosterone thing.


Where's the downside in that??



I'm just tired of ending up with a mouth full of slime.

For 30something years I was a "good guy". All I saw where women who desired the "bad boy". So I've become the "bad boy" and now I get more "good girls".

Go figure!

I know the GOOD men are out there, but how do you find them? I am a widow of 5 years and I would love to fine a good man who would be there for me. How do you pick the good ones?

This is a great conversation that could go on forever...let me give all the women some insight. Men, like women can be great at times, sorry and mean at times, laugh, scream, play, whatever. We are all capable of being the nicest guys or the biggest asses in the world. Men and women have to somehow find the person they can live with and "put up with" with the least amount of hassle and heartache. I don't care how much you love someone when you do find them...there are somethings you can't stand about them and them about you. So are these things that you hate about them enough to say they are not "good"? Only you can say...good luck hunting...

Most men dont know that a womans sex organ is between her ears. I believe the stigma of a woman dating online because she is desperate is very alive out there. But on the other side of the coin, I hear women say that we dont want to commit, but they run for the hills if you ask to see them again, and say they dont want to be tied down. dating problems are not gender specific.

Very good question. There are many good guys out there, and a lot that well tell you what you want to hear to get what they want. If you want respect just keep looking sooner are later the right one will come along. Dating sites are a two edegd blade they can help you find a nice person but also act like a candy store that keeps tempting people after they have found a nice one. Be true to yourself and when you meet a nice person be honest and loyal and demand the same. To end if he doesnt respect you before you have sex it will only get worse after.

We are here we are just sick of being ignored. i am a single father
I have 2 children who live with me and the stuck up women on this
site can't even answer a message to say hello or not interested.
I am a 9 year Marine vet, I am a pilot and I own a computer business.
I have custody of both my children and I fly for Care-flite. I have 2
degrees, a Master of Aerospace Engineering and Master of Mechanical
Engineering but on here it seems like you have to be young, white
and childless to even get a response.

Hi Pinkflowerslw, I read your posting and I am sorry that you have found that most me are always thinking with the wrong head..!! Its really sad and pathetic that a human being could be so empty and self centered. And the reason that they do not respect a woman anymore, is they will just go to another woman and get what they want. It did not use to be that way. Anymore, women will usually just lay down and give it away. And thats sad too.-- Its like the
whole world is in "" heat "" and just can't exist without having sex.. Its not making love, or sleeping together. its just plain old raw ''''SEX'''.
Anyway, to answer your question, there are still some good men out there. They are very hard to find. And good women are very hard to find also. You are going to have to be determined to not allow a man to just do as he wishes until you find the one you want. Its my opinoin, that if he is even attempting to be a good man, he will not even approach that area or subject with you allow him to.. just my thoughts-----take care

once again i think baker900 nailed it,good guys finish last (but on the other hand it takes us longer to finish)so my advice is if your tired of being played dating the players,its easy just date the opposite of what youve been dating,then you might find what your looking for!or you can always just keep that cycle going!

I have always dated older men, my motto was *Men, like fine wine, get better with age* At 21 I was dating a man who was 51, best memories of my life :) ...... Though over the past couple of years or so I find older men (or the ones I have dated) have alot of performance probs, maybe its their meds? ed? no idea but its frustrating as hell at times. Physical part of the relationship is important too

I think enough has been said by many others, and although there is much I could add based on my own experiences, it would really just seem like another rant. So just for Fun, I thought I would Share this ...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Husband-Shopping Center has just opened where a woman may go to choose a
husband from among many men. The store is comprised of six floors, and the
men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.
There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the
building.

So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first
floor, the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men have jobs.
The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well, that's better than my
last boyfriend, but I wonder what's further up?" So up she goes.

Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids.
The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's further
up?! "
And up she goes again.

Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking.
"Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?"

Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and
help with the housework.
"Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT, there must be more further
up!"
And again she heads up another flight.

Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help
with the
housework and have a strong romantic streak.
"Oh, mercy me! But just think... what must be awaiting me further on?"
So up to the sixth floor she goes.

Floor 6 - You are visitor 123,456,789,012,345 to this floor. There are no
men on this floor.
This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.
Thank you for shopping at HusbandMart and have a nice day.

Pink,

You know my feelings. We have known each other for too long. I have seen the exact opposite, and I know that sounds funny. Respect goes both ways. You and I have had lots of fun and sex never entered the picture. I want my running partner back. Hope to see you soon.

Ladies, the good men are fed up with most of you. Rather than turn into immature, abusive and profane jerks, the kind of men you'll actually RESPOND TO, we prefer to keep our dignity and leave you alone.

capable man these guys must have worked it to death not to be able to be capable at 40-45! I don't need viagra and never will and most of this is all bs ok use instincys and common sense. Sex is overarted yet I love it. takes two to tangle. Last thing if women say guys are this and guys are that then why fuss or cry 24/7 if you know most men are this way. You going to changing the existence of the sex or deal with the subtle differences holy shit! Geta grip and relax you people. most of all have fun life is too short to talk all day I'm about action and I can find plenty of women so you can find the men. Either work with them or be a lesbian. Men always have plan B so be nice or you will be 86'd faster than u can blink....
