Standing ovation to angelic witch!
I've noticed the same thing in way too many guys.
It's a pity, but well I figure if a guy can't see past the exterior and get to know me, then he wasn't worth my time to begin with. :-)

They're everywhere! Everyone is decent for someone. Decent is just too general. What you want is someone who is decent for you and you're having trouble finding it. Just because you find a woman who is decent for #267842 in Stillwater Prison doesn't mean she is not decent for anyone. We all here are in a process and when we come across ones that present themselves as closed for one reason or another we should consider ourselves lucky to have them be honest that, time saver. I myself am not looking for the perfect woman. I am looking for someone who is similar to me in personal understanding of themselves and others, mentality, interests, shape and size. Who want to build the perfect companionship that will last a lifetime. If they don't match me and what I desire.... well it just wouldn't be fair to generalise them into a category of not decent. Just be real and be honest. None of us are perfect and the understanding of that should leave you with an open mind which enables you to find that decent woman. Good luck and beware of fabrication.

HA!

Barbie Doll I do NOT want... and never have.

Barbie Dolls seem to have one thing (maybe), and thats looks. But who cares if they don't have a sense of humor or can't hold a conversation about anything more than shopping or celebrity trivia? Yes I'm being sterotypical here, but we are talking about Barbie Dolls after all...

Obviously men are more visually inspired, and just as it is for women - phyical attractiveness IS important - but also in the eye of the beholder.

Some of my best past-relationships are with women that are anything BUT Barbie Dolls, so I for one have kinda sworn off them - and continue to search for something more Real.

Going to the grocery store every day for food...
Walking in the park and sitting on the bench with some liquid refreshment
I dont have great expectations here, but since I am at home with free time and alone, I will take a shot, although since I am very poor at trying to write up a long 1 sided conversation... I am pesimistic.. At least I think I am, am I?

As we grow older, we become more opinionated don't we...we learn what we will accept and what we choose not to accept. It is all about choice. There are many decent women out there...but you need to get to know them on the inside. The outside is the easy part. I think when we were younger we didn't have as much experience to draw from so it now SEEMS like people were "more free flowing" as you say.

I have often heard that same thing. We can become set in our ways, especially if we've been single for a number of years.

In my case, I've found that those that have never been married or in a long term relationship by the time they're in their late 30's could very well be a tough partner in a relationship.

What others said earlier about just try to be a good person yourself, I agree, and the rest will happen on it's own, just make yourself available (don't hide in your house).

I know I shouldn't butt into the mens discussion, but I had to. Not all of us are awful. There are a few good and decent women left, but we are just affraid to date because of all the weird stuff that goes on nowadays. Some of us are not needy, live on our own and pay our own way. We are not "picky"- we are just old school and want to be asked out the old fashioned way and not picked up that night in the bar. So a little advice. If you meet someone you really like in the bar, make real conversation, and tell her you would like to take her out, dont try to pick her up that night - only the icky ones will go home with you. And most of all, be nice to her friends, as they will be the ones tellling her if she should go out with you. Thanks guys and have a happy new year.

As one gets older, one does find it harder why? because all of us has been there, done that, routine and as time goes by, we start taking a good close look at ourselves learning that we will not settle for anything less. Why should we? Yes it was very easy back in the day, but then again, we were alot younger and didn't really care who we were with, just as long as we had a good time. Now it's the "no head games", issues that one, I think, looks at mostly. Heard it all, seen it all, good conversation and really getting to know someone is now the important issues at hand along with not expecting anything from the other person.

first off you might be looking in the wrong place.. I know decent women are out there beacuse I like to think I am one of them. I have morals, I do not lie, cheat, steal and yet I find the losers too- you have to weed through them ... it'll come to you when you least expect it...

I'd be happy for a man to accept me as I am...
I'm educated, can talk on any subject..I can cook, mow the lawn, I can and bake

but it seems most men want a one night stand,..or to see how fast they can get you into bed!
then once their are done, you never hear from them again!

GRRRRR

I'm no barbie....but I do stutter, and men can not handle that either!

To find Quality now a days isn't an easy deal. It's an ongoing process, the thing is you can't succumb to wanting to give up you gotta keep pushing. There quality women out there but far and few in between, lot of women think their quality but aren't. Lot of these profiles are a testament to that

A lot of women on here are only looking for a free lunch or dinner. They don't give a **** about getting to know you; they're little "HAIR OF THE DOG" brats with depression issues that they can't solve on their own, only by taking medication that is....And that don't even work for them!

That's why this is a free dating site: You get only the SHIT ones', bottom of the barrel crap that slither in the grass to only bite you with their poisonous venom.

So look at my profile and see the Abomination that it is. It's kick ass!!!!

If you actually think you're going to find true love on here, you WON'T!

But I sure enjoy the "Forums"! This is FUN!
