Trying to fix my overanalyzing the situation
Posted: 11/21/2007 1:02:46 PM
Can't post a picture because of "work" seems to be a very common reason. I'm sure there maybe a couple people that fall in this category, but it is used as a lie more often then not. I wouldn't trust anyone who said that, but that's just me.

Since he wouldn't even send you a pic privately you gotta know something is up. Rest assured that he playing this same game with several other women at the same time, looking for ones who find it mysterious.

Whenever I hear this story I always think of the car dealer from True Lies who pretends to be a spy to get women into bed.

In short ignore him and be glad that you didn't get played.

when your partner is always looking at other woman
Posted: 11/20/2007 11:25:43 PM
What's the big deal with looking? Like as soon as you are in a relationship, suddenly you are suppose to go blind to the opposite sex?

Although he is watching the fashion show... maybe he's gay.

q for the guys--Tattoos on women--yes or no?
Posted: 11/1/2007 7:06:15 AM

uber_fem: word things however you like but you are saying pepople with tattoos are basicly stupid


Did I? Where? What I said was I do not understand why someone would get one, here are some quotes from my posts, I know some people think quoting stuff on here is a lot of work, but really it isn't, so here they are:


ME: Tatttoos are one of those things that I just don't understand.


ME: I would just really like to know why someone WOULD


To tell the truth, the simple fact that you can not understand that I am just curious why someone would get a tattoo saddens me. And it is not just just you, but anyone with a tattoo. There is an impulsive need to justify it with nonsense, and although amusing really doesn't answer the question.

You may think that asking a question is seriously dull and far to logical, fine. You may want to force your ideologies on what exactly is and isn't art on people, fine. At the end of the day, a simple fact remains; your answer now, as to why you have tattoos:

i do what i do because i can and i can do things because i choose to


To answer the OP's question again.... it's a turn off. Why? Besides the reason's already given, there is is very obvious attitude of "i do what i do because i can and i can do things because i choose to" and really... who wants to date someone like that? The sad thing about that is, yes, that is a stereotype, and I am sure that there are people with tattoos without this attitude, however, I have yet to meet a single one of them.

Uber, let me reply, and by no means are these attacks on you, but the reasons you give are the same reasons everyone gives, but you did not justify (for lack of a better term) them and so they aren't reasons at all, but excuses. So this reply may give others a bit of understanding of why tattoos just do not make sense.


one of them being that why cant my body be a canvas too


Noone is saying it can't be, but 'because I can' has never been a good excuse to do anything, and so far that is your logic. I'm not looking for justification on why you think you should be able to mark up your body, you should be able to, it's your body, you have that right. I have that right too.

Ok, so that's settled, you have the right to, you can, I would just really like to know why someone WOULD, just 1 logical reason please.


my ink is all of my designs... they are completly unique, one of a kind.


Congrats, on a good day I can draw a circle, seriously art in the form of drawings is something I have no tallent at and am amazed when people draw things. I am, however, exceptionally good at software engineering, data processing and computer programming. Yet I have never felt the need to graft motherboards onto my skin (as cool as that would be).

Along the lines of the idea that it is your original work, I then have a question for you. Did you one day wake up and say, "I really want a picture on my ass (or other body part)" and then proceed to draw some pictures until you found one you liked, OR, were you doodling one day and out of the blue exclaimed, "I love this picture, I want it on my ass! (or other body part)"?


plus they tell a story of part of a important journey in my life which is why it isnt quite finished yet


Such a great story that you would forget it if you didn't get inked? A story which you must relate to others and you are blind, mute quadriplegic and this is the only way left you can communicate and tell your story?


and i think they are logical reasons enough.


No. You have yet to give 1 reason, much less 1 logical reason.


some buddhist types in thailand


So you are a buddhist from Thailand? Like I had mentioned, I can accept religious reasons for it, and often people, after having this conversation with me will eventually, while grasping at straws, mention religion. Congrats you mentioned it, but it is painfully obvious that religion is not the reason you got inked.

"some buddhist types in thailand believe", that's what you said, not "I believe".

I have no doubt that you believe that buddhists in Thailand believe this. I have no doubt that you think it is a pretty cool belief, hey so do I. However, I seriously doubt that you personally believe it (for no other reason then you said "buddhist types" and not "I") So what you are telling me (if this is your reason) is that you defaced your body because of a religion you don't even believe in.


Again, Uberfem, I want to point out that this isn't meant to sound like, or be, an attack, I know that is what this could sound like. I'm just pointing out, from my point of view, there are no reasons given here for getting a tattoo.

Onoe thing I love about people with tattoos though. They always try to justify it, they always try to make up reasons why. They never (ok, let's say very very rarely) just say, "I was stupid".

"Hey, how'd you break your leg?"
"I was stupid"

"How did you car get totalled?"
"I wasn't thinking...."

"Why did you join the army?"
"I'm an idiot."

"Why did you get a tattoo?"
"Well, some monks on the other side of the world, who I never met, believe...."

I love it. If nothing else it does tell a lot about the person.

Posted: 10/31/2007 8:29:07 AM
Tatttoos are one of those things that I just don't understand. Sure as the original reply said it is your body do what you want to it, I'm not saying you can't get a tattoo and I won't stop you, but at the same time I wouldn't date you, probably.

I am still waiting for someone to just once explain to me why they got a tattoo. Noone ever has been able to give me a logical reason. I will conced religious/spiritual reasons, but besides that why? To remember a special person or event? How bad if your memory that you need to deface your own body to remember something?

It makes you look trashy, shows you can't make logical decisions and don't comtemplate your actions. But that's just one guys opinion.

Why would a guy friend hit on me ONLY when he's drunk?
Posted: 10/30/2007 4:38:58 PM
It could be that he wants to be more then friedns and feels stupid about it now that he made his more when drunk, or it could be that he really does just see you as a friend and now feels that he's messed that up because he was feeling a bit randy and hit on you.

Just talk to him about it, it wil be awkward for a bit no matter what happens, but things will go back to normal eventually and at least you'll know what's up.

Crush on a co-worker - is he gay?
Posted: 10/30/2007 4:35:00 PM
If he starts making suggestions for your hair/makeover/makeup etc then ya he's gay. Otherwise you'll probably have to gather more info on him. Just invite him to lunch one day and see how that goes, you should probably be able to tell after one lunch.

Do men resent women who make more money than they do?
Posted: 10/27/2007 5:22:10 PM
I would love to find someone who made significantly more than me. Then I can quit my job, become a house husband and have her go to work each day. That's living the dream (and when that happens I'll invite you all to a big POF party at house... when she's at work).

Giving it a bit of though, I can see two cases where it may be an issue to some guys. The first is what a lot of other's have said, if she has an attitude about it it would be a problem, but that is more of an attitude problem with her because of the money, and not an issue with the money itself.

The second would be if the man was making $30,000 a year (again for reference in Calgary that is about minimum wage for a full time adult, you can live on it well enough but you aren't going to own a house, new car, etc...) and the wife/SO was earning $60,000 or more. In that case the man may end up feeling like a failure which end end up looking like resentment.

Why is that American Women do not seem interested in Canadian Men??
Posted: 10/27/2007 11:49:42 AM


When you ask a Canadian what she thinks of America, she will tell you, at length. When you ask an American what he thinks of Canada, he'll answer, "I don't."

That is exactly my point. You ask the average American what they think of Canada and the answer will be "I don't". Ask them what they think of any country or region of the world which currently isn't being splashed on CNN 24/7 they will always give the same answer, "I don't". They say it with pride, boasting their own lack of knowledge.

Whereas, if you ask the average Canadian, European, Asian, etc and they will have an opinion because they are (at least somewhat) educated on the topic. That is all I was trying to point out by that statement and assumed that a long discussion on it would not be needed to get across such a simple point, I guess I was wrong.

But to get back to the OP's question I think he needs to clarify if he is in the USA or Canada if he wants any useful answers. I asusmed he was living in the USA since 'long distance' reasons seemed pretty evident if he was in Canada.

Why is that American Women do not seem interested in Canadian Men??
Posted: 10/25/2007 1:42:06 PM
It's because we can spell correctly and our dollar is worth more. Plus we are in that small country all the way on the other side of the map from them, how could they possibly relate?

One thing I have found a great deal of Americans have is an inability to understand other cultures or people. Sure, you can find people from any country like that, but that sort of ignorance is actually something they pride themselves on. People like that will only find happiness with other people like themselves and you are better off without them.

Again, just like there are people from any country like that, I would assume that there are a couple Americans who aren't like that... good luck finding them.

#2 for sure.

A woman who should be 130 weighing 150 isn't bad at all. However, increase that to 100lbs oveweight and now we are talking about a tough choice... Being 60 lbs overweight myself I'm hardly in a position to be judgemental but that would have to be one ugly faced woman in #1 for me not to choose her in that circumstance.

Hey ladies why do you treat attractive girls do bad !!!! (can't post in the girls site)
Posted: 10/24/2007 11:19:35 AM
There are 3 reasons for this. The first is that the girls in question are young, they really do think that guys care if they have nice shoes or that they got a $250 hair cut. Ladies, let me tell you, unless the guy is the one getting paid $250 to cut your hair, guys couldn't care less.. (just as long as you have more hair than me).

The second is that they have reached an age where they have evolved above the superficial lives they were living above and decide it is time to settle down, only to discover that they have nothing to offer, and so find faults in everyone else to make themselves look better. They will try to exclude anyone they see as threats to finding a male. A perfect example of this was the reality show last year that was searching for the next **** Cat Doll. They ended up choosing the ugliest (or should I say "least hot") of all the contestants. And why? Dispite any reasons they gave, was just because they didn't want to bring in any new competition.

The last reason is the Queen Bee syndrom. Again, this goes to some primitive need to keep the competition away. For example (not to start a whole debate on equal pay), a recent study I was reading regarding the so called glass-ceiling found that given random resumes with random names printed on top, male managers were equally as likely to hire a male or female for an executive position. However, female managers only hired the random females less then 20% of the time. The reason they gave in this study was again, limiting the competition.

Some Men & The Instant Messenger on Here

I think that what you have to remember, is that besides me, all the guys are on this website are socially inept, probably with some personality problems and need some group therapy themselves, otherwise they wouldn't be on this website. Come to think of it that probably does describe me a bit, and pretty much all the females on the website too.

You just gotta wade through it all and hopefully find a few humans in the sludge.

Do political opinions matter to a guy?
Posted: 10/18/2007 10:09:44 PM
I'm a person who takes politics pretty seriously, and as a result love to debate political matters. However, the point of debate is not to convince someone, but to educate, explore and learn of other points of views. To that end some of the best political conversations I've had were when talking with someone who shared my views where I played devil's advocate against my own beliefs.

So to answer your question, I really don't care what her political views are. What I do care about is that if she expresses a viewpoint, and I disagree, I will confront her about it, not to change her opinion, but so that I may understand her opinion. What I care about is whether she is intelligent enough to debate her position and have a reason for it besides, "because", or "because it is the right point of view", or "because it's the way I was raised".

I would perfer someone who would do the same in turn, and understands that just because someone has a different pint of view, doesn't mean that they are wrong (or right).

Posted: 10/16/2007 10:08:04 PM
There is a bit of humour in your post, but I would say that is a bad move. Tell him that on the phone or in email before you meet for the first time and make sure he knows what to expect. The reason I say it's a bad thing to start off your first meeting like that, is if you are meeting a guy who wasn't planning on molesting you, you would end up offend him.

Are you guys parinoid about your hair, or lack of?
Posted: 10/16/2007 9:53:23 PM
Some guys really do care, but imho you should stay away from those guys. I think it's the same as breast enlargement for women. Sure it may be something better to look at, but it doesn't change who you are and it really just shows you are too insecure to ever be in any sort of productive relationship. I started losing my hair at around 20 years old, and it never bothered me... it just made me more aerodynamic. It just depends on the guy and their priorities I guess.

Why do men stare at womens boobs & think we don't notice ???
Posted: 9/19/2007 3:51:32 AM
Breasts are nice, why wouldn't wwe want to look? But to be fair, I think some people (some females) become too sensitive to it, and tend to notice it a lot more often and even when it doesn't happen. For example I have this (bad?) habit, when I'm talking about something, and thinking about it I put my hand on my chin and tilt my head down slightly as I think. You know how it is when you are deep in thought, your eyes are pointed somewhere but you aren't really looking at anything.

Well it just so happens that if I'm talking to a female across the table, or there happens to be one there, or if I'm standing talking to someone I am now facing right into their breasts. Let me tell ya, it can be quite awkward when you are in my position and then realize where your eyes are and begin thinking, "how long have I been looking here?"

The one who shrugs it off for sure. Think about it, how many profiles have each of us looked at? I've probably seen hundreds but have only written to a couple. I expect others do the same thing.

But your question goes beyond that. I think it is a total attitude of people. If you are whining and complaining about such a stupid little thing, I think it becomes very clear why no one is contacting you.

BTW, which group was which? I never thought to look at the ages of the whinners but I can see either of the two complaining given the right situations.

Some Advice Needed
Posted: 4/2/2007 12:10:38 PM
He was probably using you as a crutch while over seas. Something to look forward to, a reminder of home. Now that he's back, he's not so needy, and your role as a crutch is no longer needed. Unfortunately its a hard position to change, just like, 'just friends' is a label tough to shed, so is crutch. I would assume you are wasting your time, it is how he sees you and thats hard to change.

Probably the best thing to do would be to try to stay as friends, and try to go out with him again. Don't mention his speed problem, but show him that you still want a relationship with him; show him it doesn't matter, don't tell him.

Handling her emotions...
Posted: 3/18/2007 8:56:37 AM
Well why/when did she start crying? For example do I come home and she is home crying, or am I watching tv and she just runs into the room crying? Either way, my response is this: "Whats wrong?"

Then I wait about 1 minute for a reply. If its something real I try to help, however, if the reply is bullshit I give her a couple to pack up her stuff and get out. Personally I dont have patience for bullshit, and really if we've only been dating a few months and shes crying over stupid stuff already I really dont want to spend my life with that. Like I said, I don't tollerate that sort of attitude, probably why I'm still single!

Posted: 3/18/2007 8:48:58 AM
He's not jus after sex, if he was it would have been really apparent by now. owever, thats not to say it isn't on his mind. If a realtionship is a possibility in your eyes then I'd suggest just letting things go on as normal for a little while, and look for any signs that he may want more too.

However, if thats not in the cards for you, still keep an eye out for anything and if its looking like he wants more you should really talk it out with him before it destros your friendship.

Men and their occupations, why the defensiveness?
Posted: 3/17/2007 4:01:05 PM
Maybe you should raise your standards there leafslady

Seriously though, I think if a guy has a less than ideal job it is just natural that he is a bit defensive. Plus read some of the posts here... there are some real psychos on this website, and who really wants a psycho turning up at their work!

But when it comes to guys being defensive because of gold diggers it really is a big concern. It is one thing if you make $30,000/year (believe it or not thats what the average Canadian makes according to 2004 revenue canada stats), after all your normal expeses there really is muh for a gold taker to take.

But if you are bringing home $80,000/year its a different story. I for one have no intention of supporting someone completely who is capable of having a job herself. Contrary to what you claim it isn't easy to tell, but one great warning sign is them trying to figure out how much money you make right away.

Pushing for a girl's address or to be invited to her home.. ?
Posted: 3/16/2007 11:49:55 AM
Humm.. a guy wanting to know hwere you live.... It's one thing if they are just looking to get lucky, which I think in most cases that is what they are pushing for. I mean really, lets things are going fairly well and the guy thinks he's got a chance to taking it to the next level would you rather hear, "let's go back to my place" or "let's go back to your place"? As a uy I think "your place" is the better choice, not only because I think it would make you feel safer, but also cause my place is a mess. If the girl doesn't like the idea of letting him know where she lives, ut wants things to move forward she can always suggest the guys place instead.

I would assume that any pressure to find out where you live is acutally that. I can't think of why someone would just want to know where you live for any other reason besides a non-stalking one.

I'm in agreement that it is rude, but I think theres a sort of level of immaturity with online dating. Since you are meeting with someone you dont really know, if something comes up along the way you may just skip the meeting. Unless you are really into meeting someone I think it wouldn't be too difficult to pursuade most people into doing something else.

Igotta agree with guynamejeff, you seem a bit psycho. If thats the way you come off on MSN I would block you too. No one owes you a reply, no one owes it to you to keep you on their MSN lists and talk to you everyday. Not everyone will be interested in you, live with it.

The real subject of this post shouldnt be "why are some men such cowards???" it should be "why are some females so self centered that if you dont want to talk to them they call you a coward???"

Buddy's before your girl?
Posted: 3/15/2007 10:43:01 PM
I'd probably break up with her. Of course there are a lot of assumptions being made. For example how long would I have been going out with the girl, and if it was a long time then why didn't I know my friends hated her earlier. So I am assuming this is within a few dates.

Why do guys call months after the relationship has ended?
Posted: 3/15/2007 10:39:17 PM
Pick any of your suggested reasons. Also consider:

1) sex
2) he wants to hear you are doing bad cause hes doing bad and wants to feel better
3) he wants to hear you are doing good cause he's doing good and still cares for you in some way and wants to make sure you are ok too
4) He was remembering good times he had with you and though he would just catch up

Take your pick

to pad or not to pad?
Posted: 3/14/2007 9:32:10 PM
I would guess the people who pad are also the ones complaining about how after they start fooling around with a guy he never contacts them again. Like the others said its false advertising. How would you feel if you were writing to someone who claimed to be a 6'2", 180lbs athlete only to meet him and find out he's a 5 foot, 300 lbs blad man? There's no difference.

Tell me about the Hierarchy in the Guy world...
Posted: 3/14/2007 5:52:21 PM
The girl picks the one she wants to cheat on. Thats the one she dates. She then has a one night stand with the omega of the group to pump him up and a long term affair with the one guy in the group she really did like but was not confident to date in the first place.

All the while the guys are clueless. They all get some so they are all happy.

Men who Smother

Well I guess you know why those guys are single then hey! You really have to make it clear right away when this starts that that smothering behaviour is not acceptable and if it continues just block them.

If a guy is into you he may not know how needy he is coming off, just let him know.

Frequency of Communicating
Posted: 3/14/2007 9:44:51 AM
I have to disagree with the other's replies. I think email can be done daily, if you are getting replies daily. You can always just play it by ear. For example, when you send an email, how long does it take him to reply? If its not until the next day then take a day to reply yourself. If he replies in a couple hours you can try replying right away again. If he takes a day or 2 to reply then its best to slow down the emails.

The same with MSN. Just be sure to respect the away/DND/busy statuses and don't message when they are set. There is no faster way to get blocked by me then to message me when I'm set to busy and demoing something to my boss. If you aren't getting replies from your messages remember this:

Internet communications have improved a lot since the early days of ICQ. The person you have messaged did in fact recieve your message. If you did not get a reply, stop typing. He is either busy or you are bothering him, and sending more messages isn't going to improve the situation.

Lengerie Vs. The Oversized T-Shirt
Posted: 3/14/2007 9:35:00 AM
I like it when one girl wears the lingerie and the other wears the tshirt. However, in lack of the threesome, all things being equal I'd have to favor the shirt.

Did I Do The Right Thing???
Posted: 3/14/2007 9:31:00 AM
Ya, you did the right thing, however, I doubt he got the point. Expect another visit next month. He's not gonna get the point unless you spell it out for him.

When I guy feels Rejected......How to Reassure Him???
Posted: 3/13/2007 8:50:36 PM
Listen to the original replies on this one. An online relationship can be way different then a real one. You may not like each other once you meet. After you meet and if you hit it off you'll know if any reassurance is even needed.
