Nothing wrong with a sweet girl like you. If you're just talking about your short time here on this site, then be patient. Another guy will come along. You are still young and beautiful and will be for many years I'm sure.

I suggest explaining the "separated" part in your profile, just like you did in an earlier post.

Well there's your problem, not being "sweet".

Remember, if you ever talk about your ex, always refer to him as a **stard of a$$hole. With women, if you happen to mention something about an ex in a positive light, then "you aren't over her yet" or "you aren't ready to date" or "I don't want to compete with that" So as a rule of thumb, the ex is always some evil person.

~tip-toes into DoodZone~

OP- I gotta tell ya. There's a WHOLE BUNCH of self proclaimed "Nice Guys" around POF, posting like wildmen on the forums. Go check it out if you don't believe me. There must be at least one, if not a dozen in your area, I'm sure. ~grins at all the nice guys~

You might want to do a little work on your profile. You are a sweet girl it seems and if that's who you are then you have to search to find the one who interests you and you him. Don't let being a sweet girl turn into anything negative for you. If your dates thought you sweet and backed off after that I'm not sure why they wasted your time.

Just sayin'

New to dating and it sucks!


Yep, it does! I am sorry that your experience was bad, but unfortunately, get used to it. You are going to meet some real "winners" along this journey and I truly feel for you. I know what it is like to be labeled, as I am labeled a "nice guy". It sucks, but I would rather be in my position as a nice guy than some jerk who gets laid everyday. Karma has a way of catching up to people and if you are a truly nice girl, you will meet someone special.

Guys don’t break off contact because they think the girl is sweet. Even guys who are looking only for a sexual relationship/encounter - when it comes to females, sweet is a completely positive description.
Frankly the “nice guy” does not translate to the other gender past high school graduation. There is the “good personality” which guys sometimes use to describe someone they find unattractive but don’t want to offend, but based on your pics - you don’t have a “good personality”.

If you are still concerned about it sweet girl description – the topic line of your profile already states plainly you don’t see yourself as one. Shouldn’t need any alterations past that.

If you had multiple instances of communications dropping off, it’s for other reasons. No point trying to guess those reasons since they there could be many, many of them: the guy met someone else, his brain was focused on your pictures and only recently finished processing the part where you have 2 kids, he spontaneously combusted with his confession of eternal love for you forever unexpressed...

Most definitely don’t try to change your behavior to be more reserved, passive or edgy, since that would mean you are consciously attempting to misrepresent yourself which amounts to deception, and will at best get you into a relationship with someone who wants the fake you.

Yes. For example, I'm a romantic pervert. Obviously no room for both qualities in one person.

Absolutely not. Sassy sucks big time. Especially compared to sweet. There's just no comparison.

I adore sweet girls, infact the girl has to be sweet if Im to be with her.

I reckon it's nothing to do with your sweetness, maybe the guys who tell you this are afraid to put their ego on the line and come out with what they really think.

Trust me - sweet = sexy

It's a little more complicated than that, soldier. You might call a woman sweet if you want to infer a sibling status and rule out anything else by default. Guys with a Madonna complex won't have much to do with talkative women if they appear overly available which is the reverse of the Madonna who raised them. Those two possiblities are off the top of my head. Imagine if we gave it some real thought.

Why is it once a guy calls you a sweet girl it's over?


Rebel that I am, I'm gonna have to buck the trend and say that I *want* a sweet girl - one with a good head on her shoulders, emotionally healthy, and compatible with me and my interests. I've never once told a girl she was 'sweet' in order to get rid of her.

not every guy is the same though either, i can agree and disagree with some of the statments. like having seperated in your profile, the warnings do go off and as someone had said a hen does not go to another hens house. ( i think that was the metafore)


anyway i think guys think ahh sweet girl, she could be boring or smothering and then thats when they loose interest. if they dont take the time to really get to know you then how can ya really get any enjoyment out of it.


you will find someone that will take the time to know you. ya just got to hang it tough you'll find someone

Von E. Hello! Being sweet and alittle bit of sassy and smart a$$....
And yes, get your homework done!! :) No late work acceptable...

I think you guys are SWEET in saying that a sweet girl is what some of you are looking for...

I believe deep down...most people would like their mate to be nice and sweet...then they know that the chances of trusting that person are greater than if he or she were mean and sour.

I've said it before...you men are GREAT!

But why change it?

Some of us highly appreciate it and consider it a rare valuable thing.

Most women I come across want to be STRONG, INDEPENDENT, and someone who can stand up for themselves. They love flaunting these aspects. Rarely are they "sweet".


I have to agree with ubkobalt... 'sweet' is a good thing. And it's getting rarer the more women try to be 'strong' and 'independent'. I couldn't care less how strong or independent a girl is. But I do care that she's sweet. In my mind, it's a compliment. And a strong one at that.

They are maybe thinking of you more as a sister figure or friend instead of a lover ?

Sweet is not what a man wants, he wants a woman who will get down and get dirty !

Thanks whoissue. I love sweet women, just because when you date women who take you for granted, it is nice to have a woman who actually thinks of you and does nice stuff for you. I have dated all different kinds of women and I can say that I would rather be with a nice and sweet girl than the opposite. I also believe you are right about the trusting thing, I would rather trust someone who is nice and sweet than someone who is not. It makes a relationship that much better. Hands off to you sweet girls!! Don't change!!

There is a big difference between being a sweet girl and a nice guy, a guy will call you a sweet girl because you are not putting out and he wants to move on, a nice guy will hang around until you put out sometimes years ,you ladies know the type....thank God I'm a bad boy Grrrrrr!!!!!

It would appear that being “sweet” or ‘nice” is the kiss of doom. My question is why do so many choose to continually go after those they know will lie, cheat or abuse them in some fashion? Has society sank to such depths where the perversity of being an all around bad or unpleasant person preferable to a genuine and decent person?

What is wrong with everyone? There's more to dating & relationships than random sex.

I would rather have a "sweet girl" than a lying 2 timing man hating angry high maintenance drama queen bit*ch bad girl from hell anytime of the day andy day of the year.... So long as she's not into cute puppy dawgs & my little ponies all of the time, that is.

It's a shame NCgirl12081 lives to far away.
