| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 11:00:07 AM | I just got back recently from Iraq and lost my ex out there. Now I get home and I don't want a gf, but I want someone there for me. Unless , I find that amazing one then we shall see. My question is, I want someone that is perfect for me. I picture in my mind the person I want to have and if I said it, the people reading this thread would think my standards are too much. However, I am going to say it anyways....
Personality - Funny - Hard Worker - Gross Humor (burps and farts for humor/picks nose) - Sarcastic - Silly - Careless about what other's think atitude - Independent - Common Sense Smart - Young Lady when needed Looks - Not Fat & Not Skinny Skinny - Tattoos (half sleeves rule) - Van's sneaker wearer - Certain Piercings help, but doesn't NEED them - Clean styled hair (Basicly someone who you'd see at a hardcore or oi show)
Interests - Loves Music - Loves Red Sox & Patriots. Bruins is a plus, but not needed and/or Celtics - Reading - History - Camping/Fishing - Shows/Concerts - Movies - Politics
As I look for that perfect someone and I know that you are going to say that I will never ever find someone that I 100% want, but I am saying you won't geet me unless you have that. I just wish it was alot easier. It isn't though. Please please don't state the obivious when posting back to this. However, just give me some advice.
Thanks,
Ian

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 11:03:57 AM | | I haven't looked at your profile yet, but shouldn't all of this be posted in there? What exactly was the question you were asking us females? I'm sorry, OP, but your post really doesn't make much sense... its just a list of what you want in a female... which belongs on your profile. | |

I hear exactly what you are saying... I'm pretty much like that too.
Really have no idea why you've posted this or what your question is....
Thanks for your service!  | |

I think the issue might be you don't want a gf but you want a woman to do all the things a girlfriend does. How would that be fair to any young lady?
I think your list of attributes is just fine. I don't doubt that you will find someone very close to it, and when you do find them the things that aren't 100 % wont seem all that important. | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 11:33:15 AM | | I don't think your standards are too high.. I mean people do have certain standards with who they are wanting to date.. Of course you may not find someone that has every single thing you mentioned.. but nothing/nobody is perfect. And I agree with the other people, you should probably post all of this on your profile in what you're looking for in a girl. But I think I answered your question I hope in saying that your standards aren't too high as long as you know you might not find someone with everything you listed. I am probably posting the obvious, but it is pretty obvious. lol. Good luck to you. | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 11:39:54 AM | What do you want advice on? Sounds like you're pretty aware of what you want and can clearly state it, but in the wrong place. List it on your profile.
BTW, on that whole "I don't want a girlfriend but I want someone who's there for me" all I can say is what you'll get is dependent on how bad you want it vs. what you're willing to compromise.
If you're willing to compromise a lot and you want it tomorrow, you may be able to pull that off. If you're not willing to compromise but don't care if you ever find it, that should work well too. It's the wanting and not willing to compromise combination that will frustrate you...and even that's ok if you don't complain about it.
I have a certain thing I like in a guy, and I refuse to settle for less, however since I don't need someone in my life or I'm not bent on it happening, my list can be as rigid as I want since I'm ok with being alone should it never cross my path.
Anyway, good luck! | |

I just got back recently from Iraq and lost my ex out there.
Why did you leave her there? You need to go back and get her, its not safe for girls. | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 12:07:59 PM | | I doubt you would find many women who are willing to give, give, give you what you have listed and not expect anything in return. That is, unless you meet a woman who posesses no self esteem or self worth. When you expect someone to give, most people want those same things returned. I suggest you just don't date; just sit around and grow old wishing about what might have been sounds like a sad life to me. | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 12:11:47 PM | | Brad ..she may have just run, not got lost. | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 12:50:46 PM | | well you can either became a monk or resigned to singlehood instead man, you'll never find that kind of person unless you're willing to compromise in some areas. | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 2:08:36 PM | What is your question????
And when you find a girl with all that you want...will she want you back???
now that will be a question for her IF you find her. | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 2:40:41 PM | Im guessing you were in the forces or still are but dude putting you want a girl who picks her nose etc will send them onto the next guys profile.
Maybe what you should think about is what a girl would put in that list then see how many of those quality's you might have. | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 2:49:10 PM | | You are obviously still grieving and perhaps suffering from depression. Give yourself time, you've had a lot to deal with lately. | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 3:30:56 PM | like he thinks that list is something unique ?
 | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/24/2009 6:06:23 PM | | It sounds like you are just looking for a replacement for the ex...and if you don't want a girlfriend, why the long list of requirements, especially body type/looks-wise? | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/25/2009 12:16:30 AM | Damn! I either have or do everything on the OP's list, EXCEPT I refuse to pick my nose. I believe that's what Kleenex is for. Sorry. That's where I draw the line.
There goes my shot at love again.
Edit: Oh, oops. He did say "young lady," didn't he? Well that's two things. DOUBLE DAMN! | |
|
| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/25/2009 12:47:16 AM | It's so hard because you have a list 15 feet long!
Lol
Ok, question..you obviously really liked your ex right? Did she fit into all those qualities? I think you are doing what I am doing and making a standard that is nearly impossible for someone to fit into so that you can use that as an excuse NOT to date and not to get hurt.
Best of luck to you though =-) | |

| Why is it so hard? Posted: 6/25/2009 4:28:11 AM | Sorry I was drinking kind of while writing that. However, my question is, why is it so hard to find the one that you are looking for? I always see it....
Woman walks into a bar or club.... "I'll take that guy tonight." as she looks at the giant group.
