termanallycute some men have what's known as a savior complex [he/I weren't trying to be he men] maybe you should relax all of that womanist all guys are jerks funk, just for a bit eh?


umm...my darling dead fish.....

where in my post did I imply that I had a "guys are all jerks funk"

I happen to adore men and think in alot of cases..men get a raw deal when it comes to women taking out frustrations of not being in happy relationships because of them.

7. Girls, if you post pictures of yourself in your underwear, you are basically inviting the sleeze bags to IM/message you. I know you think you look cute and sweet (and you do!) but guys dont register that, instead they will think you are easy and not give you the respect you deserve. So if you want to post that sexy pose, becareful, because guys will respond with very vulgar and lewd comments.


Why are you being so leniant with the women that do the same thing. If they post naked pics they want to fuck, or at least tease so they are just as bad.so you too are "playing it" with this post.

jug,


I can see why you think this post is a pandering one and I may agree with that assement to a degree, but are we not free to post a new topic bashing female players?

You, grammar queen, I was an English major and when it comes to those high dollar words I can out shine the most shining stars. Something I learned while teaching adults I would like to pass on to you, as a favor, of course. Always assume your audiance is listening at about the 8th grade level, unless it is a one on one with someone you know will understand you. What good are words most people would have to look up to understand, no good. If you think the use of big words impresses anyone you are the only one it impresses. Appears to me you chimed in just to get yourself noticed so I noticed and noted by your name insecure smart a.. Now, if yous have notin to say shut the h... up and start your own forum so we can skip it

Thus spake the fish! E'en tho' he mouths with fishlips in briny words, he is bloated with the wisdom of the sea. Thar needs be a manual of the cap'n's greatest wise quipperies and flipperies! Should such a manual become available, I'se be the first one to put my hard-earned coppers toward it! I could'na buy as good as that e'en down in Bonavista. A hearty raise and drain of pale to our flipposopher phish!

Thank you for this interesting information. I am always looking for some advice from members of the opposite sex on how men think and react to pictures, words etc., I am old I can use all the help I can get. Can anyone explain why men over 50 are still doing the same things the young guys do? I am thinking it must have worked for them in the past or they would not keep doing it. I am relationship retarded so any help anyone can give me is greatly appreciated.

Assuming the level of my audience seems so presumptuous. I'd rather err on the side of assuming a shinier lexicon on the part of the audience than the opposite. I weary of such attacks. Who the h-- are you?...and, for that matter, who the h-- am I? And, who the h-- cares? Forums are only for information exchange? Can we not have a little fun sometimes? We, in our cagey cloisters need to bust out sometimes with a bit of quirky wordplay. Aye, too many legislators...If you think that I am trotting out the extinct thesaurus rex, well, this is the natural way I speak. Call it a speech impediment brought about through an unhealthy overdose of reading to the point of disrepair, and I would thank you not to ridicule or chastise me over my speech impediment...

I guess some of the flack I got from this thread is expected. Most of you are a bit jaded so when a guy does something nice, theres always the question of "is it genuine?".

Sure these aren't written in stone and EVERYONE is different, so why nitpick something when I was trying to help a few people? I mean it's not like I'm going to publish those tips and start selling them at Borders, I was just trying to be helpful. You may think that these rules are common sense, but then why do so many still fall for them?

Oh, and most of you are thinking of "what's cute now" rather then considering that a way a person acts isn't a phase, but something they will do over and over again. Meaning, those sweet little turn of phrases that you enjoyed will be used ad-naseum, the sneaky little sexual innuendo will turn into "let's do ass to mouth", and the guy with the pictures of his abs and muscles has a nice c0ck picture he's just waiting to send you once you comment on his rock hard bod.

lol

Chivalry ain't dead but it def. is enjoying some beatings on a stick.

No argument here...Your intentions were genuine, and I am sure that some prospered in some way being informed by your observations. It is a good thing that "nice guys" still do exist, and that they may continue to prevail. In all seriousness, kudos.

lifeisgood- Your profile looks fine and your pictures look great =) But to answer your question, a guy who is over 50 probably was married before that. Meaning he was with a woman for how ever many years, and since he's over 50 we can assume that she is probably in the same age rank as him. Well, after 15 years of marriage a guy is probably on the prowl for something different, especially in terms of age. Younger girls are usually what they want and that is who they spend their time trying to seduce.

life is good,


you may remember the christmas song written by the late great mel torme' as sung by the equally great nat king cole, the line that say's "to kids from 1 to 92" though we may be aging we all see ourselves as the kids we used to be [did I say all?]ok most? so while we age hopefully our intellect get's stronger each day as we go through the maze of life made up of lessons love trials and tribulations but! a tricky little devil known as vanity fools us into thinking we can still swoon the younger of us [after all we think they would be crazy to pass on us right?] well in a nutshell this is what guys- men think a lot of the time. I sometimes think we view ourselves as the 20 or 30 somethings even though the mirror tells us differently we still cling to what we thought our ideal age was yes especially emotionally. so the games are the same from 1 to 92.



I'm sure I didn't answer anything for you but I wanted to share this observation since I think it holds much truth.



so I'm offering this little phrase to kids from 1 to 92 < simple genius from an American music icon

[whistling the christmas song as he heads out of thread]

There is a lot of good advice on this post, and a lot of humor also...nice to see that even tho there are differences of opinions, not everyone got all knocked about, yes, it's good to see what possesses guys and girls to act phony or act like scumbags...not everyone knows how to spot one...shame we even have to post something like this isn't it? It would be nice if everyone could just be honest and upfront, but then again...the world isn't hidden behind rose-colored glasses...and it's really cool that there are those who would try to help other's who don't know...Great posts...

LOOK, these sites are predominately for sex addicts. It basically is the most concentrated list of narrow focused - sex on the brain, people disguised as normal people who we once knew oursleves for. Yes, we were Christians once; yes we were a dignified piller in our community; yes we know all the lingo to seem normal... but in the mean time, they are helpless with a hard on and can't make heads or tails of what they want because their emotionally wounded command centers are shooting out immature, unbalanced needy thoughts because of the obession of the love for someone they just lost. Some will go through 100s of partners in a single year because of the sheer accessibility. Some told me they have 6 full time loving relationships at the same time. They aren't gruff dumb men as you describe but little cute moms who said, "read my profile first", etc.

"um, so why did the last woman I date from POF grab my butt cheeks 4 times when we were only suppose to go for a friendly stroll in the park?". She was a soccer mom. She wore a dress!! and drove a family car. I wish I had a buck for every respectable mom/woman who asked me for sex on the first date and who divulged they just really need allot of sex immediately for awhile, since they broke up recently with mr mom. SO THEY ARE NOT ABUNCH OF PARTIER MEN with short answers, they are all of us almost (except me, I am here for the articles)

Then soon we get healed, see the light and then in a mature NON-NEEDY WAY, we finally leave quietly, OR we pick someone based on mature friendship and a desire to enjoy life together and leave. They are now out there swimming around content, mature, and relaxed alone, and loving it. They soon recognise bad behaviour and sex addiction and they slow down and desire a mature protected life with good decisions.

This is the first time I'm responding to a forum. I posted one they other day in search for advice on how to help an ill family friend. I did not read all the messages and bickering in the posts. But yes I agree some of the men here have ruined it for the others but I am sure it's gone both ways. I am very untrusting because since i've been on here i met 2 people in person that turned out not to be the same person as the photos. One wasent even the same race! So when I ask people for more than on photo they seem to get angry and telling me im an untrusting person. This is not true but I do feel more comfertable meeting someone if i see photos that are non professionally taken and more than one. I know that will still not prove 100 percent it is them but it will help. Alot of men on here use photos that were from modelling sites and of actors. I have seen literally at least 20 that i knew were not them. Even one guy messaged me and I asked if that was really him. He said yes. I knew it was the actor Diego Luna and I sent him the link on yahoo to the same photo the actor uses on his site! There has been at least 10 guys who admitted to me in their emails here that the photo really wasent of them. I dont get it. If you are looking to meet someone why lie about such a big thing as who you are. Do you really think any good friendship or realtionship can be started off on such a huge lie. People who are seriously about meeting should be honest. Lieing about how much you weigh or how much money you have is alot different than lieing about who you actually are. I am honest and would like to meet someone who is and doesn't play these types of games but on here I see them constantly.

Sadly, OP, you don't seem to know Jack about relationships and players..yet. A good player plays! The better he is, the less sign he leaves. It isn't about talking sex in the first e-mail, that's a fool. It isn't about waiting a month while getting to know eachother either, 'cause a good player is talking to more than one woman and knows that he can take his time. Why the double-standard about the chest pics? Can't a guy walk down the street without a shirt!..Dude, with all your female as* kissing going on I'd bet you don't get many women.

^^^ ya ya op take it from him he is so successful with women he even posted a pic with with one of the hotties he scored gawd I'm jealous now! remember always take advice from a guy wearing a black wife beater holding a dead stinkin' fish




the capn' say's it takes a player to know a player on that we can agree..



point taken about how a player can take his time, course that assumes the woman on the other end of the conversation is completely clueless and can't pick up on the playa clues. not likely is it?



the capn' stinks with common scents p-u!

It's hard to take your words as credible with a posting you did called "that mean old b*&^t left me! LOL... come on mr. transparent, make up your mind, are you a logical dimplomatic thinker, or really a little brat talking trash about an ex that you obviously couldn't be straight with as you put it, "she finally got the hint"...
