| Guys over 30...do they even exist?
Posted: 8/3/2006 8:57:16 PM | Well...HELLO! I'm Here! But then again, I am in Manitoba. 
I am looking for that special someone and run into a similar circumstance. There seem to be none from my town (20s to early 30s) - either they've moved away or are taken. I am hoping to find a special woman to share life's experiences with soon. I am the 'fun' but 'responsible' type. I've been called a 'nice guy' too many times to believe that women are looking for that. LOL. I can be fun if given the chance!
p.s. : ok, dork points for me...but this is my FIRST post ever on any message anywhere. Yay :) | |

Posted: 1/21/2007 7:00:06 AM | | Wow! I guess I am not 36 then. I am very single. However, I read your profile and it saids your looking for friends. I can be your friend too, but I don't go beyond that point. | |

Maybe the question was taken a bit too literally. Maybe I should have asked if single, heterosexual, within 50 miles of me, not on drugs, not an alcoholic, and not in jail over 30 guys existed
Dang, I'm only a few hundred miles away from existing. Oh well, "c'est la vie", as the germans say. | |

Posted: 1/21/2007 8:39:46 PM | It seems to me you need to consider moving. There are millons of guys over 30 that are single. To go one better, Im over 40 and single. Some men have no desire to have children. I guess we are way too self absorbed to not be first on our agendas.

Its illegal to be 30 and not married in georgia. The punishment is you have to register as a non-married offender and you have to post a sign in your yard to let others know you are over 30 and not married. | |

Posted: 1/22/2007 5:47:15 AM | "As for supermarkets, I don't feel comfortable approaching men there. It seems somehow wrong to intrude on someone's shopping time,lol. Also, can't tell if they're single or not...Besides what do I say..."Can you feel my melons".... "
Newfiegrl: The supermarket!? I've heard of that, but I never thought anyone took that seriously. People are usually keeping to themselves, concentrating on real melons, not the ones on women (pardon the bad pun).
I have actually began nice conversations with women (over 30 of course) at my local starbucks. Not the ones in the suburbs (they have too many families going there) but the ones downtown. Lots of professional do work or hang out there.
Another place to meet people is to join clubs or do charity work. Charities like Habitat for Humanities actually have a singles project, where single people work on building a house for a good cause. Lots of enviro friendly people our age do work there.
And the final thing is.....you are on POF!!!! There are tons of men here over 30. You seem to be funloving, studious person with a great personality and great looks. A couple of outreaches and you should be lining up dates in your area. | |

Posted: 1/28/2007 8:43:54 AM | In UK there are loads of male 30 somethings, whether they're genuine I'll never know.. 'cos I don't have time to question each and every one that I stumble upon.
But, it seems over here, we party in our teens/early 20's... get married in our later 20's then end up on our own again in our 30's... So we all end up back at square one again... except this time: we party early 30's/ get married late 30's then maybe 40 we go for the divorce again. I'm not sure, HOPE NOT!  I'd really rather be truly settled by then. | |

Posted: 1/28/2007 3:19:11 PM | | A lot of people are getting married later on these days. I know a lot of 30 somethings (male and female) who've never been married. I just turned 30 this past August and haven't find the one to marry yet. But I'd like to wait for the right one to come along and not just settle for someone. | |

Posted: 1/28/2007 10:30:57 PM | well, I may not be in NF but I am in Maine in the Good Ole US of A! For me it seems to be the other way around, being able to have women over 30 who will talk to me!

Posted: 1/29/2007 12:57:22 PM | for the most part its where you live!try to look at some of the profiles that say talk/email,for the most part there is a lot of single guys over 30,we just dont want to jump into dating as for the most of us have just got out of a long marrige.And when you look around at some of the profiles they all want the same thing,long term.that scares most men at this point in there life,go slow and chat with then for a wile,one of you might have to move to find the one,just be careful!
good luck. | |

Posted: 1/30/2007 6:29:09 AM | To the OP.
We men are scratching our heads trying to find you too. This problem extends well beyond Canada. Once you do find someone in your age range you still have all those other things needing to be there to have a relationship with them. I'm guessing most of the good ones are like myself and avoid the adolescent lifestyle of clubbing because as you said; they aren't there. Not the good ones anyway.
We either go and do something or we go home.... Our numbers haven't dwindled but we are spending a lot more time in our homes instead of standing around for 2 hours in front of a movie theater talking to friends. It's time to get bolder when you do see a guy you're considering meeting. Make it obvious you're interested or just approach him. Really, it's a good idea... | |

doesn't seem any easier for the menfolk trying to find women.
look at this , a whole plethora of 30 something guys for the taking... okay that sounds bad, or good, depending on the people involved!
cheers, keep the faith OP! (and the rest of us too!) | |

Posted: 1/30/2007 10:05:33 AM | it could be the work thing...
I could see that as a problem... so why don't you move...
I hear that Ontario is really hopping and I know TO needs to have more down home charm that the few people I have been lucky enough to know from your part of the world seem to have!
So move to TO, lots of boys over 30 here! | |
