You ladies who ask a guy, take a look at his profile before you take his words to heart.

If he doesn't look like anyone you'd date or anyone you KNOW would date...better skip his answers as he should be perhaps asking for advice rather then giving it?

I'm not exempt from what I just wrote either.

Sometimes the older guys have good advice, but you're right, you should take everything with a grain of salt.

You ladies who ask a guy,
shouldn't this be in the "ask a girl"???

since it's in the "ask a guy" I'll answer it, even though I object to being called a lady.

there's women who I may not date, for certain reasons (they may be 25 years older than me, have other goals in life, or have different lifestyle preferences, or some other reason) but I'd listen to meaningful advice if they offered it.
Your desire to date someone, shouldn't have a bearing on the quality of advice that they're able to give.

It may be more advisable, to not ask for advice, from people we'd like to date, as our ability to judge the quality of their advice, may be clouded by our own attractions.



and to be totally honest...........
if anyone really needs serious advice on anything, why ask for it here?
you'll get more idiot opinions, than helpful advice, in these forums.

A person's physical appearance has bearing on the validity of their words?

The inference was probably about what was written in their profile and how they answered the stock questions at the top.

Unless it was Tammy Faye Baker giving makeup advice...

But just because people look alike doesnt mean that they think alike.

I think people would miss out on alot of good opinions is they only listened to people they would date.

The original poster's handle sounds like a good idea.

pokerjimmy = "poke her, jimmy!"?

If so, I agree. Jimmy should hit it.

what a load of bollocks

I listen and ask questions of a few ladies here in POF that are in their late 40's early 50's - would I date them - no -- would they date me -- no

we have a mutual appreciation based purely on intellect and as such we are able to have many conversations on a variety of subjects

why -- because I can freely admit that their intelligence, education and life experience far outweighs my own, as well as the fact that many of them are a lot more realistic in their conversations then the women say in their early 30's

Just because you wont date them - doesnt mean you an not interact and learn from them

I have to go with Roo on this one as well ... It is not that the source is flawed or that the questions are scewed either ...

But the fact remains that if you wish to have advice you seek out the best sources that can provide you with the best information. That is the truth.
If you are a guy and wish to seek advice talking to another woman is the ebst palce to start and it doesn't have to do anything with dating that person ... It is called friendship ... I have many of them ... And I trust them to give me good answers to my good questions ...
