I have a few questions.....sorry if this is redundant and it's not pity, just curiosity! :)

So, why does it seem like the men some of us attract seem needy and clingy and they tell you they love you right away?? They don't even know the real you and they are telling you that!! Are they saying that cause they think it will help them get some?? Then when we tell them we just want to be friends, they freak out and don't want to have anything to do with us...like WTF, can't get what you want so you don't want nothing!!Is this some signal we are sending out without realizing it and if so, how the hell do you make it stop??!!

Then the guys we want to attract are not attracted to us!! How do we attract them?? Do we really need to be a perfect 10, or are we disillusioned in thinking that they will see the real us??

I realize this is probably an age old question, but if anyone has some insight, that would be awesome!

I also realize this probably happens to men too, how do you handle it??

Edit: I have a feeling this post will not last long!

*HEAVY SIGH* if I had the answers to this I would not be here... I have the same problem... the ones I'm attracted to arn't to me... and the ones I'm not attracted to won't go away...Then of course there are the ones that the attraction is mutual but they don't want a relationship they would rather play the field.... go figure

Sweetie, it sounds like you are having a bad day...HUGS to you. Hopefully soon, we will find the answer and find what we are looking for...I mean it's not like I am looking for MR 10, just someone I am attracted to and is also attracted to me....it seems like a huge problem to find that now a days!

Gypsy, it's so funny you would post this. A friend and I were just having this exact same conversation.

I wish I had the answer, but if you figure it out, please share it with the rest of us.

Call me silly...or call me smart. This site promotes meeting people, and we continue adding to our lists, harems, bedrooms, showrooms...or whatever.

I have met some really wonderful women whom I consider friends (for now). I think that's what my profile reads. It changes almost by the second...and then I return it to the "Friends" category. The more people you "meet", the more chances you will find the right one.

The "right one" for me called me today and told me she left the abusive relationship and is staying for a suicidal stalker. What did that make me? I would give my left "nut" to be with her, but I have decided that it is out of my hands, that it's not my will.

One of these days, I'm going to be pierced by Cupid's arrow...and I will probably resist, because of what happened to me recently. In the meantime...I'm getting to know the staffs of many a Tim Horton's and Starbucks shops, with a ton of laughter thrown in.

Maybe if we decided not to login to this site on a daily basis, would we start investing more time into the one we just met, half an hour ago with for a coffee.

Thanks Gypsy. That's better now.

You know what we're seeing a lot of lately. This lets be friends, bullsh*t, but let's be friends behind closed doors. They come in and become a part of your life, but keep you at arms length from theirs. Like they are good enough to be in your life, but you're not good enough to be in theirs.

How about you go on a couple of date and they just want to be friends...then you realize you are friends, but a hidden friend...one that allows them to mingle with your friends and family, but you will never be invited to mingle with theirs!...

If you want to be friends then it should be that you are a part of my life on a whole as I should be a part of their on a whole...

Sherrif, I am so sorry that happened to you and I think you are right, the more we meet the better our chances are and then they get to see "us", not what we type.

Edit: Dental floss and lipstick in the back seat of your van...I am killing myself laughing right now!

The "friends" thing is cropping up alot lately...is there some kind of promotion going on that we are not aware of and it pisses me off, good enough to be friends, good enough to f**k, but not good enough for a relationship!! Okay, I feel better now! LOL

Apparently Deadlyeye and I spend a little too much time together!


In a sad kinda way, it's nice to know we're not the only ones. I guess everyone has a bad day once in a while.

The person I am referring too I met in person, not online and he seemed like a decent guy, just not boyfriend material and when I let him know that, right from the start, he eventually went kinda nuts and burned all bridges....speaking of bridges (nice segue huh) I don't want to party with guys and have them forget me...I want to find the one who will never forget me! And I am having a great day, just curious is all! But thanks for the laugh LP!

Seems to be a lot of that going around lately...

I think it is in part because those who are genuine in looking for someone get tired of the "games".

And this "friends" game is one of the worst. It is not a gender specific phenomena...

And on a long weekend like this when the weather is nice... I guess we have a little more time to reflect on stuff.

Hugs for all that can use one.

dont joke about the sharp stick, I have seen it and I know the girl knows how to use it....lol.

not sure I understand the point of this, are you upset that men are being needy? or are you upset because they seem to be acting that way to get sex? or are you upset because no one seems to be serious?

The neediness and procaliming love right away, I want a man, not a child and I want someone to get to know me first before telling me they love me, acting that way to get sex (crazy I know) and not finding anyone that is serious about a relationship. So yeah, I guess all of that! LOL Then the clincher, the ones I am not attracted to freak out when I say I just want to be friends and the ones I am attracted to just want to be friends....I think I shoulda joined a convent...this all confuses the hell out of me!

I totally understand Gypsy/Ally also.

They say that men tend to fall in love faster than women. Not sure if it is true or not, but I have seen it happen often. Not sure if it is because men confuse lust with love.

The friends thing, I can't explain that, but do clue me in when you find out the answer please!
