Is there.......

Okay...I know this may sound random...or maybe it doesn't, but is there such a thing as a single guy that is
Sweet
Caring
Considerate
Tall
Nice teeth
Has a college education
Isn't afraid of a girl that's straight forward
Isn't afraid of comittment
Has respect for my choices
That I'm attracted to
AND IS SINGLE and doesn't turn around and say...well I thought I was ready for a relationship...but I'm not.

Is anybody else tired of getting burned? B/c I'm getting to the point where I've been burned so many times, I'm starting to steer clear of the oven.
Sad....

Yes there is such thing as this guy. Unfortunately just like girls that are

Caring
Loving
independent
naturally beautiful
intelligent
doesn't play head-games
and that I'm attracted to...

They've already been snatched up.

There are however a lot of guys out there with many, but not all of the qualities you desire. Why not give them a chance?

In regards to the laundry list of required items you are looking for, it can be quite intimidating. Everyone, even guys, have insecurities. Seeing that you want this, this, this, that, and the other, puts a very big mark in some people's heads that you might just be a waste of their time because they don't feel they are adequate to what you want.

That leaves you with a lot of alpha male types that may, or may not want anything more than to fill their bed tonight.

Of course if that's entirely what you want, than there is certainly nothing wrong with that. However, realize that the pickier you are, the harder it will be to find that somebody.

Either way, good luck with your search.

My take is that chivalry is not dead but rather the damsel in distress got tired of waiting for prince charming to rescue her after all the fakes tried, so she up and saved herself... that said there is a such thing as a single guy who is sweet caring and so on. Guys for the most part do not know themselves well enough to be comfortable with being that way. there is a lackluster with people in general today, people wanting instant gratification instead of being patient.. as to being burned, you cant throw in the towel just because the oven keeps burning you! dont begin to allow yourself to carry baggage like that.. dont you get tired of hearing all those drama-kaze people who can only talk about how many times they have been burnt as if they are drowning in their own self pity.. its a gamble sure.. but its one that you need to prove your still human enough to take without limiting what your capable of doing.

Tired of getting burned? I would be if I actually got close to the fire.. 23 and not a single date, I was just too focused on setting my life up and not concerned about anyone around me. Now here I am thinking: you know having your life set up and ready to go is great and all... but life really isn't a whole lot without friends be they girls guys whatever.

I look at your list and say: yeah were out there, except maybe we were just too shy or too busy setting things up. I could apply over half your list to me doesn't help if I just drown myself in games all the time. Hence why I am trying to get away from that now and see whats out there one small step at a time.

I would be if I was tall


Is height really important? I havent dated anyone taller than me so I guess im guilty for looking for girls shorter than me. But it is a thought

there's plenty of guys like that, but just like you women we get just as tired of all the crap dished out to us. seems like when ever a woman gets what she asks for they find 10 more reasons why that guy isn't good enough or they keep them around just long enough to fidn a guy thats just a little better in some area........


it's all a load of bs as far as i'm concerned anymore.

There are guys that fit your list, just as there are women out there that would fit any man's. The problem is that people are not willing to take the time and say" hi, how are ya" any more.

Its amazing what you can find if ya take the time...

Its not tha people arnet willing to say hi. its that the people dont look/act/talk/move like the person they are saying hi to. so they dismiss "hi" with "bye" and look for something their selfcentered ass thinks will be what they want. then the get burned. I've had both guy and girl friends be the "hi" and "bye" as have I. We are all guilty of trying to get EXACTLY what we want. Shoot for the stars they said. HA

haha...oh wow.
I was completely unaware that people had even responded to this...or that you could see my post on my profile :)

Thanks for all of the responses!!

Who knows with anything these days...I do agree that women killed chivalry...but there are still some of us that look for it.

In the end...life is what it is, and someone will come into my life when the time is right.

Again, thanks again to you all for responding!!!

Is there a reason why you must have a list?

Ive found there is NEVER anyone who will conform to a list of " must haves" within the course of meeting them and getting to know them for a month or less.

singular obvious requirements such as " breaths through thier nose"


Id suggest trying " I find them remotely interesting and will meet with the only goal to walk away knowing something of them."

As you progress assign more to it if a relationship is what you intend to seek.
Perhaps the second time you meet something along the lines of " do I find this person charming? attractive? "

As I dont know you please dont consider this an attack just and observation. your requirements seem superficial in light that there is nothing really touching your "ideal" man having a personality. Seems a tall good looking guy who just graduated from college and doesnt speak english would fit the bill rather nicely. being able to smile and nod would fulfill the requirements of being caring and sweet. Being stuck in the US without speaking english would damn sure guarantee a relationship :D

My guess would be "he" was one of those "Unread/Deleted" emails that get over looked. He probably screwed up and put in the subject line "hey" or "hi" and it got lost in the other 35-40 "hey" and "hi" s.

Thats not totally true, were not all "snatched up" in wanting to meet a guy like that, well good luck with the list, not too many men like having a list to live up too. Men are Men and Women are Women, neither likes change . Men just need to be themselves, and Women as well just like the old western days , you wouldn't find some guy trying to be was he wasn't or visa versa. Be yourself, and if thats not good enough, it wasn't meant to be.

Just a thought, but your profile doesn't include your laundry list. Maybe that's why your responses don't match what you want!

I know. I know. my profile needs help too.

Good luck fishing.

when men try and give this in a relationship ,its not worth it. I have always been taught to be kind and ackwoneldge ladies. On this site for encounters only. 4 wives,and all were well taken care. Not a one of them had to work,it was their choice.,but each one of them couldn't appreciate being a wife. Yes,they each screwed around and with sorry guys who didn't have jobs. Now get this,after 23yrs,this one ran off with a chid rapist and convicted drug feleon,and he raped his own child. took care of that prob.Mow each one of themhas been asking to date again. Chivalry isn't dead ,but its not somethimg you can demand,you should be aware of in indiviuals manners and intentions. Good luck and drop the laundry list.drkdennis

That's just a part of living in rural America. You didn't lose your wife, you just lost your turn. That's why I no longer live in rural America and where I lived wasn't even that rural.

OP: The laundry list guy is out there however I can assure you that you are looking in all the wrong places just from your photos. This guy is NOT at the bar and NOT at the mall. He likely isn't in church and if he is, he isn't there to pick up women. You might find him at the bookstore or grocery store but really, do you want to spend all your time looking for him? COS has a ton of dirtbags and you'll meet half of them looking for this guy. You sound like the match for the stereotypical nerd guy but he never leaves Mommy's basement or the safety of his computer/X-box. If you want to have a good relationship with an independent man, pining a way in your high tower will just make him ignore you. Independent men with strong personalities have run into the damsel by the time their 25 and sworn, "Never again." Good luck.

You left this off the top of the list: Not Damaged Goods

That rules out the OP, who has "been burned so many times" the scars are disfiguring.
