Posted: 1/2/2007 11:45:36 PM | Some people shouldn't breed... 
Why would you post something to make sure you join that club?
There are a lot of really cool girls on this site. You couldn't possibly meet them all in your lifetime. They are everywhere...
You might try raising your standards... meet those standards yourself...
Watch what happens...  | |

| Women on POF have standards way too high
Posted: 1/2/2007 11:51:20 PM | Robert: A serious and logical discussion? When did you do that? Okay, the seriousness I see, because you keep proving that you lack humor. The logic? That hasn't come into your posts yet.
"Shut up"? So, not only are you angry, bitter, woman-hating...you're just plain rude. Keep putting the puzzle together, buddy.
PS-Notice that I didn't ask for your permission to give my "so-called humor". When you posted your rant, you opened the door.
Does someone need a hug? | |

Posted: 1/2/2007 11:57:39 PM | As a side note:
I'd like to say there are plenty of men who are guilty of being picky, just as there are plenty of women are of guilty of the same. As to how many there are of each, does it matter? It's really more a question of who YOU happen to meet in the course of your lifetime.
That all aside, I agree with RobertE about the comment about Vancouver girls. Actually not just girls, guys are more or less like that too. It's the whole damn city. I don't understand it, I've spent fair bits of time in a LOT of the major cities in North America, bigger and smaller and I find them all more or less friendlier than Vancouver. Unfortunately I do love the CITY, and it's where I call home. But damn is it hard to meet new people in this city. gf or bf or just new friends. Swear to god this city just is way too stuck up, sadly I find myself acting more like that as well, just because I'm sick of trying to be friendly and running into a icy brick wall. Fortunately it hasn't set in permanently and hopefully it doesn't! :) | |

Posted: 1/2/2007 11:58:59 PM | OP it is a goofy statement you make...you have only been a member since 12/17/06
give it some time.
One thing you can do to improve your chances of meeting some really cool friends for hanging out with or dating, whatever...is to delete the current photo...and post some better ones.
Here you will find an excellent tutorial on photos…the entire thread will be helpful to you for that matter.

eldubu ~ That's hilarious. I am certian the entire female gender is not offended by what this guy has stated, nor do I beleive he believes emphatically THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE of the female gender "have standards way too high" ~ He could have said "many" or "the ones that I have come across", etc...

Posted: 1/2/2007 11:59:18 PM | | You dont need permission to post humour, just dont talk to me if that's all your going to do because I'm not interested. And so far your only counterargument is the usual "generalization" flaw like always. Cant come up with anything besides that eh? But I thought I made it clear that I didnt generalize didnt I? | |

Posted: 1/3/2007 12:06:44 AM | Wow, what a thread, screams of generalizations and bitterness. What is the actual point of it? The question or discussion? You knock down all the feedback that is different from what you believe.
I can tell you women here are the same as elsewhere, we aren't some elite group and the mere suggestion women of a certain location are problematic or a certain way, alerts me something is going on with the individual. If you think we are so bad and you're unhappy with it, then maybe you would be better off moving for a relationship....and learn it has followed you.
Let's face it, you are angry at women, period. But at this moment, you've chosen to focus on women here because they know what they want and actually say it. So, is it better for you to get involved with someone who doesn't know what they want or someone who doesn't vocalize it? I can tell you, you'll find that on this site, just like you find the ones that know what they want. I have many many female friends from this site, and none of them have model or certain look qualifiers in their profiles, but they certainly know what they are looking for personality wise and good for them!!
I do happen to think everyone is worth what they are asking for, and everyone is special in their own way. For you to judge & label someone as not good enough to be asking for what they want, is ridiculous. Your attitude clearly is getting in the way of your interactions and your posts show on the bottom of your profile too, so it's only following you.
From the posts at the beginning, I take it you didn't have a picture up, but I see you have one now. I'm being straight here, you won't like it, but here it is..... your attitude is all over your face. I would not feel inclined to meet you as a potential anything, even if I liked what you had written in your profile and messages. You clearly have anger and other stuff going on in that picture & IMO, you are better off without one at all. I did say you wouldn't like what I had to say.
Unless you are feeling kindness and acceptance of other's differences on the inside, you will keep yourself alienated on this site and pretty much in real life as well, no matter how many people you surround yourself with.
Good luck. | |

Posted: 1/3/2007 12:16:24 AM | Robert: I'm actually feeling pity for you now. Why ARE you so angry? Your picture shows you with a scowl on your face.
You have chosen to insult me, which I can take, I've been insulted much better by much brighter people.
You do realize that my posts being the only ones that seem to have pissed you off is actually a compliment, don't you? I hit a nerve. I will simply be another woman that you're angry at. It won't change my life, but it seems that it WILL change yours. | |

Posted: 1/3/2007 12:29:25 AM | | I know exactly what you are talking about. I have a good job, and am reasonably good looking. Just because I stabbed a few nuns to death and had to spend some time in prison and at a psych ward doesn't make me a bad guy. I mean my lawyer said I was crazy and the judge agreed. Why can't women give a guy like me a second chance? | |

I'm tellin' ya... when the ladies start to 'stick together', and the lingo begins to get more friendly, all kinds of eyebrows go up, and people run off to charge the batteries for their video cameras.
Mmm mm.

Posted: 1/3/2007 8:23:26 AM | | Eldubu- you mean to tell me you were just complimenting me not insulting me by all that bit ching??? Are you joking again because I dont see anything but you making mockery of my post and nothing complimentary. And what's this: "I have been insulted by brighter people"- what does this look like? You just insulted me now. Youre a complete retard Eldubu and you dont make any sense whatsoever. If you were bright enough to make a single intelligent post (which you obviously arent) then I might take you seriously, until then clam it because you're a waste of space. | |

Posted: 1/3/2007 8:26:48 AM | Women have high standards and expectations but in reality, they have nothing to offer.
They are takers and are selfish. If they can't find one rich man, they have a bunch
of guys on the string to make up for it. A lot of these women with these high standards
and expectations are really a joke because many are 20 years too old and 20 years too
fat. Guys who are model quality don't really get any further with these women either
unless they wish to give them all their money. Why give these women your money?
You may as well smoke and drink it yourself! | |

Hey....did you date a friend of mine??? Wow, weird if you did. You hit the nail on the head with that one, yet she never has a lonely night so she must be doing SOMETHING right. | |

Posted: 1/3/2007 8:50:02 AM | I'm with DallasFlier here, you get props for Whiniest post of the year. Geez.
You've been here a couple of weeks, in the middle of the holidays, are pissed off that you haven't done well, and the only forum posting you've done is to complain.
You realize that your forum posts get linked to your profile, right?
If women weren't turned off to your profile before the whiney posts, they will be now.
My suggestions:
1) Put up a better picture. You're scowling; it looks like a mug shot. In fact, if it had numbers under it I would have though it WAS a mug shot.
2) You need a better profile. There's not much description here. It says you like to play the drums. Are you in a band? Expand a little on your hobbies. What do you do for a living? You don't even have profession filled in. Have someone proofread your profile. You've got some run on sentences, and the last sentence in the first paragraph doesn't even make sense. Seattle is ALWAYS inside the city, lol.
3) Put in a first date section, and try to make it sound like FUN. Your whole profile screams NOT FUN. This is not going to get you dates.
4) Start participating on forums so that this little rant of yours will disappear into the archives. As long as women see this thing attached to your profile they're going to stay as far away from you as humanly possible. And in the future when you participate, say something funny, witty, show some brain power, do anything other than what you're doing now.
Good luck.

Posted: 1/3/2007 9:01:50 AM | I'm a guy so let me tell you what the girls have told me. They say that 90% of the guys who contact them want sex, right off. If they are average to good looking, they get more emails than they can answer. They have to have a way to reduce the number of emails. SO THEY SET HIGH STANDARDS.
Try writing more than a few words when contacting a girl so she knows you took the time to really contact just her. Not just one of two dozen or more. Tell her something unusual about yourself so she can get some insight as to who you really are.
Reread your letter at least twice or better yet if you feel she is the one, have someone else critique it. First impressions are very important. Don't even think about talking about sex.
Ask a few questions and give at least one sincere compliment. Above all be honest.
I hope this helps.

Posted: 1/3/2007 9:05:17 AM | When a guy starts a thread like this and women get offended,
it's because the shoe fits these women all too well. They say stuff like,
not all women are like that and there must be something wrong
with you instead. etc. etc.
Guys start threads like this because they notice the same thing happening
over and over and notice the facts. They notice that it don't matter what
they do and what they offer, the women are not satisfied.
The guys should realize that women are on dating sites because they don't
want a guy. They want what the guys offer, but it's business in the disguise
of dating.
One way to prove this is when a guy corresponds with a woman and things
go too well outside of business, the women will go out of her way to start a
problem so she can get out of any real friendship or any real date. | |
