Posted: 4/13/2008 7:27:26 PM | okay well come to the simple conclusion that date in Minnesota is not like dating on the West Coast. As people here I find are too afraid to be direct with other people .I guess they call that Minnesota nice lol it is funny but it's true kind of sad.
as i am bachelor living in Minnesota and only dated four times While I lived here. I moved here for your storms and I enjoy chasing them. And I guess I can say I really enjoy Minnesota just not the people .I've been very disappointed with the people here being so close minded and always willing to jump to conclusions before they even ask.that not to saying every one here just 99.9% of them
So far I've only met one person in the state worth talking to and then to find out that they've been all over the United States which can explain why they are so open-minded and straight forward and if they have a question about some thing they just come out and ask?.
so my question goes out to all you people from outside of Minnesota who moved here.do you find it easier to stay single than to deal with the headaches of dating in the state? | |

Your age range completely precludes any woman who has children who are already moved out of her home. As a PhD student who hasn't actually finished, wouldn't it be nice to have a woman who can stand on her own two feet. Goth's are "live let live", that does not sound like you.
I am not from MN originally, but you are just like 99.9 % of the men I have met. Narrow mindedness seems to cross all borders.
From a beautiful, statuesque, blond-haired woman without children.
Have a great day. | |

Posted: 4/19/2008 8:33:58 PM | well i may sound narrow minded but as i have been deeling with meeting people in this state i have well not many nice thing to say (BUT i do have some thing to say about your amazing pet it is a beautiful animal. now as not yet got my phd well this is my second time through college my first time was stanford and berkleyi am retired and was looking for some thing to do so i decided to go back to school i am already published in a few reptile mags . now i am enjoying graphic design as i have been doing it for many years there is always some thing to learn.
now for being narrow minded i have never been called that .all my statment s came from a 5 year study i did here in mn on dating .
and for the kinds of females i like well i only will date some one who is secure with who they are .i like some one who is self dependent and relies on them self's for things in life
now she dose not have to be a perfect spel;ler or master of grammar well as you can see i am not but i cant type eather and my spelling worse lol.
well you are the first person to speak up i like that | |

Roy is a magnificent animal, all black German Shepherd. I trained him for an assist dog for my late husband. Smart animal with a fun personality.
There are things I may agree with you on, and that being, the dating arena on the internet has a lot to be desired. I have started a book written with humor, about my experiences... Perhaps we should collaborate and you can tell the males perspective. That is if you can find the funny side of it.
I am not a collector of things, but people collect my work. I am an artist. | |

Posted: 4/21/2008 7:13:18 AM | So far it has been fun to write...rather cleansing really. lol To collaborate we would have to communicate off the forum. If you are truly interested let me know.
Have a great day! | |

Posted: 4/21/2008 8:04:46 AM | Honestly im a lot younger then you guys
and my experince has been that minnesota women are all over
meaning that women are either hot or cold, lukewarm, acididy
get my drift?
There is a wide selection personality wise
What I find funny is that some women in minnesota really think they are super top notch if you compare the hottest chick in minnesota to lets say L.A. (shoutout to all my la people) she would be a 5 at best. Call me shallow but shallow is when you approach a women and she shoo's you away like a dog (this happend to a buddy of mine) thats disgusting | |

Posted: 4/21/2008 3:11:55 PM | Brady,
I have a girlfriend in her 20's that has done the online dating as well, we compared notes...we are you in 20 years, men and women don't really change ...just get older. lol
Men and women don't always treat each other kindly, it's not a gender issue. Just personality issues.
Don't take it too seriously... it's mind over matter. If you don't mind, it don't matter...

I got ya
Like I said women are all over here
which isn't a bad thing, but I've noticed that if you really want to date a pretty girl in this state in my experince, they want you to chase them and jump thru so many unesscary hoops its not even funny, while if you go for an average girl she usually displays more intellgience and common sense. I think with the hot girls they are use to having all these guys fawn over them that when a descent guy comes along she doesn't know if his motives are geniune or full off b.s. honestly I can't blame them, I do blame however the once that are golddigers. lol but thats another topic and thread | |

Posted: 5/16/2008 5:21:27 AM | | I am not a guy so; I don't have the problem of finding dates here in Metro area. I meet lots of new and exciting people. They may or may not be the "one." But I give them a chance. Who knows what treasures you will find! | |

Posted: 6/8/2008 7:17:18 PM | | Wow! Ya know, I've just moved back to MN this week. This is the second time I've lived here, and I find the women to be very intelligent, kind, outgoing, and a lot of fun. Perhaps it's just your arrogance and lack of personality in general that's caused you the "headaches of dating in the state" | |

Posted: 6/9/2008 5:32:56 AM | | so im pretty sure you cant classify women by the state they live in. that is almost in the same cateogry as saying "all black do this, and all whites act like this. oh and mexicans ALWAYS say that." that utter crap. i dont live in MN but close enough. so maybe just maybe your not getting dates because of your profile....re read it and look closer at what your writing... women dont want a man who a) is negative in alot of aspects in his description of himself (which u are) and b) shows off his "toys" he has and brags about the meaningless things in life. and finally c) YOU ARE TOO PICKY! get over it. you arent perfect and neither is anyone else. we are all here for the same purpose. everyone has their own quirks yes, and everyone has a different approach to dating or whatever you may be trying to do here. just remember if you stop being to negative and stop bashing others you may find yourself a DATE *covers mouth in shock*. seriously though. you should probably take what ive said into consideration. HAVE A GREAT DAY | |

Posted: 6/9/2008 12:08:26 PM | | It always amazes me when someone says they are looking for someone pretty or handsome............whose estimation should one go by...........I have went out with very handsome men (in my opinion) and i have went out with men that society would consider homely and the one thing I found with each and everyone of them is that sexy or handsome comes from deep within.............not how they comb there hair..........not how they look in shorts and not how tall they are...........its about what kind of sense of humor they have, how they treat others, what their beliefs and values are...........they say that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder............in truth its in the ears of the beholder.............what you hear from someone else is what makes you think they are so good looking.

Posted: 6/13/2008 5:36:57 PM | Ok-I have to ask have you ever heard of a writer named Carol Bly? She defines the Midwest as Sexually Restrained-meaning we have a full interpretation to shut up and only speak when we have been fed up with the same issues over and over again-tell me have you met a woman or man who is so open about their sexuality in Minnesota that they would just blurt out all their wants and desires? My guess is no-why? Because we are adventurers and if you have to be told how to turn the stove on whats the point we might as well just do it ourselves... So to say.
Try a book called "Letter from Lost Swede Towns" not my favorite but definitely some insight on what your issue is...
Blessed Be | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 3:26:41 AM | now i must reply to this one .
as she is the only one who speaks the truth .
yes the mn is very represt when it comes to sex or any thing that is ungodly..
now as for living all around the world in many places. you find you can judge how 80% of the people of a state are kind of why this state has one of the highest divorce rates in the usa.
along with a very high % of single mothers as for me i decided i did not want kids at a young age and have stuck with it sex to me is a way to past the time it is a desire nothing alse .
.
then theres my fav the mega church whata waste well as i dont really make friends because most people in mn are afraid to speak their mind instead they perfer to talk about you behind your back o yes the call that Minnesota nice lol.
no lets see how many people i have offended because were i come from they would just respond by saying so everyone has a view on how life is . | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 3:28:14 AM | | well most people i know who move away from mn always return because they cant handle living some place alse were humans speak ther minds in ones face instead of behind there back | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 3:32:16 AM | you have not lived life when you do talk to me about real thing ok you could not even say .
and almost every one whom is single in mn is a single mother why is that ? | |
|
| dating in Minnesota 101
Posted: 6/20/2008 3:44:00 AM | now so for 90% of all the responces were as i xspected humans are very predictable.
now for your response you have been the only honest response .
now you sound like a person who would enjoy watching the sun set or a fields first bloom.
i stopped looking at humans awale ago as most are to predictable for me for almost 10 i was sent to natural disaster sites it the best place to observe the true human nature .
and after that you have to conclude the most are liers and monsters and are always after something because most cant see what they already have and be greatful for that .
buty is that of a true perseption of the mines eye and that of the wispers | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 5:43:04 AM | Do you always have one-sided conversations? I could imagine going out with you! I imagine the meeting} V:HI I'm **** How are you doing tonight? I am good. I woke up nervous that I was gonna blow this this and well
date:uh
V:(continues without noticing date trying to hail the cab) I am so glad you answered the door-I am not really sure why I haven't found anyone that will go on a second date with me (continues to blabber while his date hops in the first semi truck headed for anywhere) Table for two please-yes the Chardonnay is fine- and i will take the fillet and **** what would you like I would suggest the Shrimp Scampi it is delicious you are awefully quiet I had the impreesion you were more of a talker thats ok if you don't mind my endless dribble and pointless blabbering(and the conversation goes on and on and on.....
Honest enough for you?
But Seriously: I have to ask are you implying that women are the reason the divorce rate is so high in MN? | |
|
| dating in Minnesota 101
Posted: 6/20/2008 10:30:09 AM | no i was just wounding why there are so many divorces here .
from what i have seen so far is people jump in to marriage to fast here the don't plan thing out before having kids . | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 6:28:34 PM | I think it is all because of the Christianity! HAHA *I really don't think so, but I believe I read a clause that says unmarried women are cursed to spend eternity in H3ll-I think
Good thing you aren't looking for men to be friends with because there are just as many single fathers on here in Minnesota as single mothers. | |
|
| dating in Minnesota 101
Posted: 6/21/2008 3:23:00 PM | yes that is so true i should rephrase my self why are there so many single perants ?
well i may seem as an ass but really i am one .
i am also the father figure to my friends kids see i really do like kids .
so have you taken every one fishing yet ? | |
|
| dating in Minnesota 101
Posted: 6/21/2008 3:54:03 PM | | maybe there are so many single parents because alot of men wont step up to the responsibility of raising a child. who the hell are you to judge anyone for that matter? i really dont know where you get off saying the things you do. you old and washed up and no one wants to be with you. so you need to use your "toys" and your so called money to make up for it. but that hasnt seemed to be workin out. maybe thats why your such a cynical bitter jerk? and no. im not from mn. i have lived in WI, PA, KY, FL, and yes...MN. and i dont think the judgements your passing on people here is going to get you anywhere with a woman. i sure as hell wouldnt want to be with someone like you. so if your so miserable in the midwest why dont you leave? simple as that. quit your whining and GO HOME. | |

Posted: 6/21/2008 4:30:02 PM | it must be true the last resort is name calling .
bitter i am not .
lonely i am not.and next time you want to resort to name calling please use some imagination.
and i like my toys that is why i bought them.
now for females well i am all my friends are females . if you read my profile it said i am looking for friends. I am not looking for someone to date . I enjoy being single . and i am only speaking from observation .
it also says on my profile that i like open minds not those who are quick to anger .smiles | |
