Your so nice., Your so sweet. Your everything a girl wants. then why am I still single?Page 2 of 5    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

The only real truth I can tell you is we are all a bunch of liars. We, as women, say one thing then do something completely different five minutes later. Confused? Well unless you are insane, yeah you should be confused.


I was going to hold my tongue, but really...give me a freaking break. Oh, and speak for yourself because I mean what I say and I say what I mean.

Be careful with that Metrosexual lifestyle stuff, not many women are interested in dating a guy that has more skin and hair care product then they do. It's one thing to be sensitive to a womens needs, but don't be an overly emotional doormat. The fact of the matter is women are looking for men. The media would have you think that we as men need to be this metrosexual male in order to progress. Bull****, if a lady wanted to date a women she will, and if you haven't noticed, some of the women, women date are preaty damn manly.
When I was in my 20s I got my head filled with all this supposed, what a women want bull****. It wasn't untill my late twentys that I figured it out. I'm not saying I have all the answers now, but in the last 3 years I've done more dating than all of the years previous combined.
What I think women want is a man that makes them feel, safe, secure, sexy, loved, and appreaciated. Trust me when I say they will test you, because they will, it may be unconcious, but it wil be a pass/fail test.
Also consider this also,men have a tendency to only see a women with their eyes, learn to see with your heart and mind, if you don't, the real jems out their will get away.

Hmmmmmm, no way around it: women don't dig the bus. You gotta get a car!

Then, well, right now, start making some short, attainable goals: look at why you're not getting anywhere and ask yourself what you could do differently (subliminal message: get some wheels!).

That should improve your success by like 50%.

Also, ask yourself, why you're being so nice. Be yourself and don't do nice things for women in hopes of getting something nice in return - same goes for guys too. It's all needy.

Good luck!

I think it's all about timing and finding the right one in the right circumstance. Haven't you found a girl who is very sweet and nice but the spark is not there? You have to find someone who thinks like you do and wants the same kinds of things. It is not easy to find. You may not find it for a while. Times have changed and people don't just get together with the first seemingly good match that comes along. People are putting off marriage until later. Women do not "have to" get married to find financial stability. I know it's difficult to date these days. No one has a clear role anymore. I have a hard time with it too. It will come and it will feel natural. She has to fit into your life and you both have to be comfortable with each other. You know, like a best friend.

The point of having a car ins't that it's a possession, it's that it makes it possible for you to go meet her, or meet somewhere in the middle, and not be dependent on your date to drive you everywhere.

Thanks Ginger.

I'd rather have people think I'm materialistic while I'm cruising around in my car than sitting my single ass down on my couch hoping some woman would come pick me up.

If I am telling a guy "you're everything a girl wants" it would be the guy that I am with!

Are people telling you this?

Women tell me all the time that I am so nice and so sweet, you just haven't met the right one yet. Well I just met you, didn't I?

And Buy a Car, how old are you anyway


I'll tell you what.. You buy a car when you work 15-25 hours a week on as close to 6.70 an hour as you can.. and pay for a $450 dollar apartment, plus food expenses, plus accessories.

AND pay for two cats that eat you out of house and home.



This wasn't a pity rant, to the people who thought it was, you can kindly kiss where the sun doesn't shine. It was an honest question about why women who say I'm 'too nice' don't stay with me.

And to the person who said the 'Amish beard' doesn't help, I've posted a picture of myself and everyone agrees that I look better with it.

I am a nice guy too, and I am starting to see how it works against me. have'nt you heard, Women prefer ***holes. I know this is a very strange phenom. but very real. like the old saying goes: "nice guys finish last"
now all the women will say, "no i'm not attracted to ***holes, I like CONFIDENCE."
yeah, that helps. but sometimes I wonder.


Damn straight, i might as well post i'm an ***hole on my profile i'd get more hits on it, so much for good old fashion values, and to all women who are looking for a "sweet sensative guy" decide what you want and don't bother putting that bs on your profile and wasting everyones time. That's my two cents and i'm up for a bashing too, so feel free to tear this apart

i think the reason y you might be single is becasue you have to take meeting someone to the next step ... siting and just talking on the computer dosent get you n e were .... take a leap of faith and go to wee they are or make some kind of aggreement.. trust me someday you will find someone...

good luck to ya

AndrewDB,

Does a car, money and distance between really mean that much to you?. Seriously, you shouldn't see these things as a stop sign when it comes to pursuing a gal. Rather a challenging obstacle that needs to be overcome. I know distance would mean that you would never see that special person as often as you would like. This can be especially hard when you have a lot of love to give.
Who said you were too nice?, lemme talk to them and i'll convince them otherwise for you
.

Hugs,
From the girl who blocked you on MSN last weekend cos you were BEING AN A**HOLE .

As for transportation many people never drive in their lives.They use a bike ,cab, bus or even a limo,you can still get around fine without a car.

Believe me... I'm not picky, the first girl I ever made love to weighed more than me (by more than 50 pounds)...


I personally find this very offensive, as if it implies that overweight girls are somehow "less" than athletic or thin girls. If looks are all that you take pride in being not picky about, maybe it's time to establish your dating criteria a little deeper?

And no, you're not everything that every woman would like, because individuality gave women and men alike a variety of personal preferences. Until you meet a woman whose preferences match your personality, you will need patience and initiative.

First, I don't think we've ever talked on msn.. ever. o_O If we did, it certianly wasn't me.. Note me the address I gave you to talk to me on, because I don't ever remember talking to you on MSN. Second, I'm never rude to anyone, including strangers.. It kind of worries me that you seem to think that we've talked on msn.


Third: Do a car, money and distance between really mean that much to me?

The simple answer is : No.

The long answer:

No not at all, because I know in the end, if two people are willing to work things out, they'll work out in the end... I've even said I'd scrounge money together for a car if I really had to, to go see a lady. Hell I'd even pay for a flight to see her if I had to. I don't mind distance at all..

By the way if we did talk, and you'll have to pardon my memory, because I've been working a whole lot, I'm sorry. If I came across as a jerk I respectfully apologize. :( I hope you'll forgive me. I've been promoted at work so my work load has increased more than I know what to do with. :/

Metrosexual is fine, as long as it isn't a charade for homosexual. If you are 100% sure of your sexuality then its a mute point.

Women love a sensitive, caring, compassionate man. A man who can cuddle and caress is a keeper. IF, however, you are also a doormat or a pushover then we lose interest. You must be strong and tough without being bossy. No woman wants to be with a man who doesn't act masculine. A man who conforms himself to his perception of what 'you' want in a man is fighting a losing battle.

timberghost had a great line
What I think women want is a man that makes them feel, safe, secure, sexy, loved, and appreaciated. Trust me when I say they will test you, because they will, it may be unconcious, but it wil be a pass/fail test.

You must always be manly in order to keep us interested.

Fine line, perhaps. But we've been straddling it for 100 years. Sexually experienced and available or whore?? Domestically accommodating and loving or submissive doormat??? Educated and intelligent or too smart for him to be comfortable with???

Hi A,

I sort of agree with Lanx here. A makeover isn't a bad idea. I'm forever upgrading myself and I think everyone should get in the habit of it. Not that I am unhappy with the way I look, but I know if I improve what I already have, that means more guys will look my way. :) And that's a good thing. It's a win-win situation, if you do. And I hope Lanx is getting more looks coming his way.

A simpler solution to the problem of not having enough money to pay for bills, rent AND a car is to work a full-time job instead of part-time. Then you'd have money to live, buy gas and take your date to dinner.

May he is tring to save the environment,he doesn,t look like a bum,ther is alot of qualitys,that most of these woman over look.Finding the right woman,is hard today.Find somebody that is willing to put in the work Andrew.Then buy a car,most professional woman can,t grasp the idea,that some people,don,t have all the skills or resouces,to land a good paying job.And hardly any will try to help?If you have what you need to survive,thats all that matters.You will know,when you meet an understanding,real woman.She likes you for you alone

The OP wanted to know what might be holding him back from meeting women. No one said you HAVE to have a car, but it does make dating substantially easier if you do.
