Doubt it Grandma! But thanks for trying! | |

Posted: 11/10/2007 1:32:52 PM | Bad dating advice I recieved and they all contradict one another which makes my list funny:
1)Your too nice, inorder to find a man you need to be ****y
2)Your too ****y, inorder to find a man you have to be nice! LOL!
3) You need to be an open book and men will be drawn to you
4) Don't be an open book for men will think they can walk over you | |

"Love will happen when you least expect it." Yeah, I'll be masturbating at 45 if I think that way.
Welcome to the club! 
All dating advice is flawed as it generally comes from those already in a relationship. I contend that I am among the percentage of the population for which no relationship is possible. Heck , it's not even probable. We are so unique that no member of the opposite sex finds us the least bit attractive or desirable.
Once a person can accept that they are a member of this elite group, life is easy!  | |

Posted: 11/10/2007 5:49:07 PM | I hate the "you'll find one when you stop looking." That didn't work for me.
"You should look at church." I am sure church-going men are just waiting for agnostic girl like me. | |

Posted: 11/11/2007 9:48:51 AM | You guys all left out the grocery store advice. "You can find a great mate at the grocery store." lmao
You: Hi there, I couldn't help but to notice that you seem to be filling your cart with small portions of food items. Does this mean that you are single?"
Her: Help! I'm being stalked by someone who is following me around the store while I try to shop for my grandmother. | |

Posted: 11/11/2007 10:27:33 AM | So someone is stating, just wait for it the relationship to come to you; yeah, but put yourself into the position so it doesn't go around you. I do not think anyone is going to advise - wait - do nothing and poof! Boyfriend/Girlfriend! There always has to be some level of effort from both sides. I do not think that was advice you were receiving, more like a "be patience" reminder.
As far as church - not going to find me there!
Bad advice I have received. If you want to meet someone and if someone is trying to help by giving advice; as long as it does not get you in trouble, how bad can it be? Somethings that work for others does not work for everyone. But hell, give it a try!! | |

Posted: 11/13/2007 5:29:46 PM | The two that piss me off the most is: "You'll meet her when you're not looking" (yeah, been there done that got the T-shirt) and "You're looking in all the wrong places" (hey, give me an ADDRESS or GPS location then please!).
Ohhh that 2nd one just get's under my skin. If I knew the right places to look then I darned well wouldn't be looking in the wrong places now would I?

Posted: 11/13/2007 9:14:22 PM | Reading this thread I was totally amazed that there is still advice out there that my well-meaning friends have not given me.
The absolute worst advice is UNSOLICITED advice!
Worst repetitive advice: Not all men are like "him"...don't give up, keeping looking. Well, DUH, I'm not 12...I know not all men are like "him" and I never said anything about giving up.
Worst advice EVER: Date the opposite of you. OMG! That's crazy! | |

Posted: 11/20/2007 1:19:27 PM | Well, sure you'll meet nice people at church...you'll meet their spouses and kids too!
I get a lot of "You're going to make some guy very happy someday." Does that mean I'm going to find someone who's unhappy now? I don't like the sound of it. I'd rather get the advice that most people get - the stuff about how it's better to go ahead and make yourself happy first - that sounds better; that I can do. | |

Posted: 11/20/2007 7:54:06 PM | Hahaha Oh Thank you getyourjeff! I was scrolling through the thread looking for that one. I can't believe it hadn't come up already!
The "meet guys in a grocery store" thing bugs me too. Yeah, right. Who came up with that one in the first place? | |

Posted: 11/21/2007 5:24:24 AM | | Okay, this is more of a peeve but, I'm counting it because, its so darn annoying and it is dating related. Every time I tell my mom I went on a date she launches into an inquiry about the guys "credentials". SUPER annoying!!! If he is in the military, she wants to know if he is an officer. Did he go to college and where? How much does he make? Like I have asked him what his income is or even care (as long as he has one whatever the size, we're cool)!!! Still trying to figure out if I want to even know him at all at this point...NO, I have not asked him if he knows what his IQ is. I realize she just wants me to be prosperous (I am prosperous on my own, thank you mom!) but, there is no way I have the amount of info. she is asking for. I just try to avoid telling her at this point, I love her dearly but...this takes the cake. | |

After all who gives a rats butt about being the last in my line? WTF cares? Why not just date a vasectomy? | |
