| Why are men still single and please be honest
Posted: 12/8/2007 11:02:18 PM | | It seems like the same pictures are still on this site of men since I found out about this site. Are all you men dating for fun and enjoying it or would you like to find someone to have a serious relationship with over the age of 55? | |

Posted: 12/12/2007 9:59:31 AM | 55 is a little old for me I guess but as long as you make me some cookies and tuck me in at night, and give me 2 dollar bills on my birthday. I think that we could work something out | |

Posted: 1/6/2008 11:57:03 PM | Probobly for the same reason.The same faces have been here since I started years back .I've been on and off this site several times and realized that if I haven't found that right person by now then they are'nt going to be there unless new people start filtering in.
I do enjoy the forums and chatting with new people anyway. | |

Posted: 1/7/2008 4:51:04 AM | I'm still single here because I don't like PoF's layout. I click on a thumbnail picture to look at a profile that more often than not doesn't match what I want. Maybe things'll change when I make it to a meet 'n' greet. Maybe I'm not using PoF well.
Beyond that? It's not easy to find someone with a view of life that matches my own. I don't want to live according to the social default. I don't have a desire for children, and I want to explore every bit of personal relationships. I don't have the typical boundaries for emotional or sexual intimacy. I want someone who is at least comfortable with spiritual exploration yet takes care of their physical body.
So, serious relationship? Yeah, I'd like one. With someone over 55? It could be a strong relationship, but perhaps not the type that you would expect. | |

Posted: 1/7/2008 9:41:37 AM | Because of the ~whiny~ 'You're Too Far Away! ' syndrome . .
It makes me Ill . . that so many Terrific Ladies would be So selfish as to limit themselves
to a particular 'distance' to find a good man . . | |

Posted: 1/7/2008 6:09:58 PM | Well, I think that the men who remain single often fall into two very distinct groups.
There are the guys who you ladies are all standing in line to go out with and be played by, then there are the not so pretty guys who couldn't get to second base if they were equipped with GPS. Look at my picture and I think you will see why I am single. Hey anybody know where I can get GPS? | |

Posted: 1/7/2008 7:37:34 PM | | I would have to agree with bill, i think that most of u are looking for that male model type of guy, instead of the quality of whats in his head and heart. Cause i dont think that im bad looking but i guess im not that male magazine model type of guy. And especially being a black male on here, i think most of the caucaison females on here will not date a black guy. Talk about shallow minds!!! | |

Maybe it's not a matter of being shallow, maybe it's just preference? I'm a phat chick and if they aren't into me so be it. No skin off my nose.

Posted: 1/8/2008 9:16:10 PM | And why are women still single?? For those of us wondering that about ourselves (like me!), I think if we knew the answer we wouldn't be single any more! Just a thought.
Kenny, can I introduce you to the period key on your keyboard? It's on the bottom row...2 keys to the right of the letter M! ;-) I had to read your post about 3 times before I could figure out what you were trying to say!!

Posted: 1/13/2008 9:18:26 PM | | The same men are here because the same women are here. And if those same women aren't willing to meet these same men then it will always be the same men and women on here. | |

Posted: 1/14/2008 11:11:16 PM | | I've had a few dates on here but the men have a certain mind set of having things go their way. I don't believe in eating a man up who is over 55, but I do believe that it is expected. I would like to get to know someone before all this hugging and kissing. I don't want to set at my house and watch television on a date that is rediculous. I can do that any night of the week. I'm not sure what some of the men really are thinking sometimes. I'm not going to turn a long distance relationship down unless I believe it won't work. | |

Posted: 1/22/2008 9:25:55 PM | | The reason most of us all.... woman and men... are still in this pool of dismay... is... drum roll.... to many people are not willing to accept dating on the net, they can't cross certain lines, or they are acting like the person... who they think is getting all of the dates, or they’re making dating more complicated than it really needs to be... or some are just here, to get a feeling of self worth, based off of the attention they get from a website. | |

Posted: 9/7/2008 3:36:47 PM | Like everyone else here, I can only speak for myself.
At 55, I find that I:
1) am too picky about whom I will share my life with;
2) am too busy/into myself to have a relationship;
3) am too conservative;
4) am too libertarian;
5) have too many firearms;
6) am too wild;
7) am too straight-laced to have any fun;
8) am too arrogant and/or****;
9) don't date often enough;
10) am too old and/or young;
11) didn't put my profile on "hidden" after our second date, so how could I be serious?;
11) have brown eyes;
12) am too paranoid;
13) [insert here your own reason I am not a keeper].
In short, the reason I am still here depends on what women decide the deal breaker is for them.
Number 11 is particularly interesting. Out of the blue, I received an email from a "lady" who spent two paragraphs describing the things that we have in common and how it would be great to maybe meet me someday, and then spent another paragraph explaining that in spite of the 'match' we could never work out because she is only turned on by blue-eyed men. Go figure!
And that list does not include the significant number of women who would not respond at all, or who were "kind" enough to use the "Thanks, but no thanks" canned message.
I also readily admit that I have decided women are not a match for me, based on what *I* decide is a deal breaker to me, too. For instance, my kids are 28 and older, and I have three grandsons between 2 and 6; it would take a really special woman for me to want to raise a second family. So, a woman with one or more children under junior high school age would not match my lifestyle and preference.
In short, it goes both ways.
-tom, still fishing because I still believe in the fairy tale

Posted: 9/7/2008 3:43:04 PM | | Corresponding on the Internet is something new to me, so I may be doing this all wrong. I'm in the experimental stage and have no idea what to expect from any of this. I see this simply as a new forum with which to communicate with many women and in a manner that is easy, less time-consuming and that could help me better define myself through sharing honest ideas and opinons. Corresponding with me will at least be interesting and could lead to a maturing journey for myself and others. So, with this said. The reason I am still single is because of a variety of factors such as (1) intentionally being "too busy" to either feel too lonely or in getting too involved in a committed relationship, (2) my personal lost of trust in many females whose first impressions are usually used as tools of deceptive manipulation, (3) lost of faith in the American ideology of "romance" and even "love" where I am utterly confused and dismayed in what a relationship could mean for me personally as if besides the need of sex alone, the time spent in relating seems to be largely a waste of time and energy, and (4) finally because I am satisfied with being single where I don't feel I need a woman to feel complete. You wanted honesty and I've given it. | |

Posted: 9/7/2008 4:04:16 PM | Too funny as I just had the same thought when I looked on yahoo and saw the same men..5 yrs later..but truth of the matter I'm still here and have been on others sites..on and off..
think the one poster was right..I haven't met the right one..Have met lots of nice gentlemen..but haven't felt the spark and chemistry that I'm looking for.
Not willing to settle even tho i've been divorced for 10 yrs..Want my one and only last best friend to grow old with..Sure hope I find him soon..as I would like to spend as much time as possible with him...lol | |
