| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/17/2006 8:34:05 AM | The internet dating is one surprising place to visit for everyone, you just never know who you are going to meet and what they will say. Today I went online and messaged this guy and said hi, then told him that I liked his pictures. I am a very nice caring lady and very honest. I am not a Barbie, but I don't think I look that bad. I was shocked that this guy "said he could not say the same for me" Man what has become of being polite. I love his profile, it is like most of the men saying they all are caring, understanding and all but wonderful. I just don't see where these guys have to be so nasty. Why can they just be honest and say thanks for the message but you are not my type, I guess they cannot think that much, being all they really are after is seeing about getting laid So being a nice person and honest on here seems to be just a joke to these guys Here is something I found on internet dating and I was surprised, but after being on here it doesn't surprise me. I think the owner did a wonderful job on this site I have met some nice people, but I have met some very rude people. It's a shame people cannot treat people the way they would like to be treated. You can write anything on your profile, but the question is can you stand behind it???? I just don't know why people cannot be nice god for once in awhile, does it hurt that much to be nice!

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/17/2006 11:13:27 AM | Aw cmon now , women do it too ! There are male and female rude people out here . This is an easier venue to just click and move on , yet that click may offend someone . But these people all have individual personalities and moods . Are they using the site properly ? Some do some don't . Every crowd has different individuals and this site is a crowd . Liars , cheaters , snobs , average , knock outs , shy , with a chip on their shoulder to regularly happy and friendly people that are on hear for their own reason and at different times /moods. Gauranteed there is truthfulness and deception on here , but using it wisely you can safely find someone that is at least worth meeting . Putting up with all the crap getting there is key , and really still easier than in person . Cheer up you , you met 1 bad fish turf him on shore to slowly die and move down shore !  | |

I am not a Barbie, but I don't think I look that bad. Barbie ain't the only pretty doll on the market.
You can write anything on your profile, but the question is can you stand behind it???? I sure as hell can. You're welcome to drive up to Lakeland...but, I do smoke. lol
How honest do you believe the majority of online personal ads are? I think that most are sincere. Fear, insecurity, inability to communicate thoughts and feelings, etc....are the errors in most false profiles. IMO

No, I too have found that most people don't tell everything. I try to be honest when I get to know somebody, but, no dishonesty in my profile. Anybody can say they like anything so others will like them. At our age, and divorced (most of us), we did something wrong or we would not be divorced. We have to learn by our mistakes and not blame the other for everything. We also have to realize that we are getting older and we don't have that 20yr body anymore and can't expect the opposite sex to have that body either. We have to look deeper than what's on the outside.
I did have one in here that IM'd me alot, but, was too pushy and sounded a little strange. I also got a couple of phone numbers of ladies I thought were lovely, but, they never returned my calls. You can IM me anytime, but, I'm a smoker. That does not mean that we cannot be friends. I think you have a lovely picture. Enough said :) | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/20/2006 7:27:41 AM | Hi, I would have sent this via email but wouldn't go thru.
Since your profile is under construction, the only opinion I can offer to your question -- is to remove the photo in the gray t-shirt. You are attractive, but that photo isn't all that flattering and imo not in your best interest for a dating site. | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/20/2006 1:30:54 PM | I cant believe that a woman is saying this when they are the rudest of all, calling you "short" this or that, being rude with you, leading you on etc.....Not all of them let me clarify, but they have been extremely rude with me over the years.... Just because i dont look like a 10 feet tall GQ model.... | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/21/2006 9:45:19 PM | You can't take this site seriously and you can't take it personally. It's all words until you meet someone and even then it still might be just words.
I love words but to most, they're cheap trinkets.

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/21/2006 10:27:08 PM | I am with you. I just dont understand the need to be negative. I just feel sorry for the woman who does end up with that man. He's probably the type that would kick you when you're down. Maybe it makes them feel better. I get frustrated myself with the way some people respond. All I want is a simple or no need to add hateful comments. | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/23/2006 5:35:04 PM | Wow, I'm very new to these online dating sites and the more I read about them, the more I'm wondering if it's worth your time. There are so many people that are just plain old hateful and mean to others that are nice to them. Who really needs that? At first I thought, WOW, what a neat way to find someone that lives close to you, but now I'm beginning to wonder. Sigh!
Btw, from another woman......I think your pictures are very nice and he was way out of line. | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/24/2006 7:07:41 PM | I'd rather find out at the oneset than meet the guy and go out with him a few times and then have him just stop talking....
THAT is just so rude.
I want to meet a man who has the balls to be straight forward and honest. And it doesn't need to be in a rude way like that jerk was to you. A simple "I'm sorry but you aren't what I'm looking for" will do just fine.
That's ok. I get the last laugh. They don't know what they could have had.
And you're pics are fine KittyKat.....be glad you found out so fast what an ASS this guy was and I hope he's reading this! | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 4/28/2006 2:40:38 PM | Yes, there are rude guys looking for Pamela Anderson lookalikes on these dating services, and it's unrealistic of them, to say the least.
On the flipside, I've used internet dating sites and the one thing that I notice in many of them is how so many women want men 5'10" to 6'4", even when they themselves are 5 feet and under. So that knocks me (5'7") out of 90% of the field from the getgo! Ladies, most studies have shown the "average" man is 5'9"! Why do you hold out for tall (and of course, good looking) men on a dating serivce? Such above average men in height (and looks) are in high demand and (no pun intended) short in supply. They rarely, if ever, need dating services. You're as bad as the guys who look for Baywatch models. | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 12/31/2006 2:40:12 PM | Ahhh, I love how polite people are...I told a guy once, that I was on a date with, that I thought he was very attractive, his response was "I know, and I'm going to have to keep searching until I find someone in my league", then he got up and LEFT! I was stunned, to say the least.
Not being one to let a challenge slip by, though, I went after him and said "I hope you find your dream woman. It will be hard finding someone to measure up to the standard that you've set, but I'm sure that somewhere out there is a woman with absolutely no personality who will be desperate enough to settle and take what you're offering. Best of luck to you".
I don't know what his reaction was, because I just smiled and walked away. It felt GREAT! | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 12/31/2006 3:57:28 PM | Witty Woman I strongly suspect most of us are idiots these days. I am amazed at the most recent discoveries noting the reasons men and women have so much trouble communicating. Lets face it gals, we are wired very differently I suspect part of the equation might be all the outragous influance we are subjected to in the media. I'm clame to be dumb as a bag of hammers but my parents instilled in me there is no reason to insult anyone for any reason. But much of what we say,not met to be insulting somehow does not make it through the correct pathways and the next thing we know,"you're a insensative JERK".....(and cant spell)!! If i've held your hand for thirty years plus, our paths together took us to several continents . Never raised my voice much less my hand nor had the inclination to do so.....just how IMPORTANT is it that I might occasionally miss the mark interpeting your needs? As for judging women by their looks. May I submit, both sexes have serious hard wiring as to what constitutes a acceptable MATE. Primal Stuff. Thats one reason there so darn many of us Some women can be so Querky that many of us just want to give up, move to Raiatea and learn to spearfish , climb coconut palms until our time runs out  Buzz  | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 12/31/2006 4:07:38 PM | it's ok to judge on looks, since we all do it...however, it's another matter when you are outright rude about it....
i might tell someone they are not my type....or i don't think we're a good match....
i would never tell someone they were too ugly for me...because beauty is in the eye of the beholder....tom cruise and sexiest man alive george clooney are too ugly for me...I dont find them attractive at all...but other women do...to each his own....
but don't be rude...because if you are ugly on the inside then there really is no hope for you | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 12/31/2006 4:35:18 PM | well there is a flip side to every coin.
As I agree with this thread whole heartedly...I personally think it is rude to not even reply.
I send messages to some ladies...only to see them read and deleted...not even a reply saying no thanks or the like...
It will be like beating a dead horse...simply put....answer all your mails be they a "no thank you" or "Your not a good match" or even "thanks for the email, but I don't think we are compatible"
but at least answer them. I answer every email sent my way, I chat nicely, I like to be friends with all my emails, and I think thats what this site was made for...friendships (weather they turn serious or not).
Ciao for now. | |

| why are men so rude to women, judging them by looks Posted: 12/31/2006 4:48:24 PM | let's see when i answered an email the other day...i got back that i was a fat blonde whale from the same guy who had just told me i was sexy....
so sometimes rather than face the possible wrath of some man im rejecting...and yes i've heard the women can be rude when rejected also....i just sometimes hit delete | |
