need some advice
Posted:
10/5/2007 1:58:36 PM
sex is obviously important (to you, therefore to the relationship) or you wouldn't be asking.
communicate with him...let him know what you are missing in your relationship. see a counselor. have him see a doctor and check his testosterone level. if nothing else...keep a "man-in-hand" in your nightstand drawer for those lonely nights he's away...

Playing hard to get
Posted:
7/26/2007 2:53:17 PM
doesn't apply here. i seldom have pursued anyone. typically, my relationships were initiated by "her," whether on a dating site or out in the real world. if a girl is hard to get, i'll move on with rare exception.

why is being a guy and a virgin at 32 so surprising?
Posted:

why is being a guy and a virgin at 32 so surprising?
to answer your question in your subject line, because it is unusual and surprising. no magic answer here. you want to stay a virgin until you meet "the one," then great...but accept many will see that as odd, right or wrong, and stop seeing you. that should be a good thing because based on what you say you seek in a partner, they wouldn't be a fit anyway.

A Question About Favorites
Posted:
7/16/2007 7:56:24 AM
you have "Must not have messaged users looking for intimate encounters or sex" as a mail block. some of the men may not be able to e-mail you because of this restriction, and are hopeful you will see that they added you to favorites in hopes you will initiate contact with them.
you may have been added as a favorite because someone enjoyed your forum posts and want to follow your future posts.

Confusing, confusing...
Posted:
7/15/2007 8:48:36 AM
The strange part of all this is that she SAYS one thing, but DOES another, which is why I am so confused.
hahahahahahahahahaha...nothing "strange" here.
you've entered the
friend zone
, and once in it's hard to get out. she's knows (1) you like her, (2) you are a good friend (emotionaly intimate), (3) that you aren't going anywhere regardless on where she takes the relationship, and (4) she has the power to sleep with you at anytime (regardless whether she acts on it).
she has no fear of loss (losing you to another) because she knows you aren't going anywhere as long as the relationship stays in pergatory. she values your friendship greatly as it seems the two of you share yourselves emotionaly much as a couple would that are "together." she values that...why risk losing that by having sex with you? she is your girlfriend...without the sex and label. call it wha you want...
you're stuck in the
friend zone
until you make something happen. she "has her cake and can eat it to," with no reason for her to change anything. you can either accept it "it is what it is," push for a committed relationship, or get out. no one in this forum knows you well enough to advise which approach is best for you...only you can. good luck.

Maybe im Asexual?
Posted:

I was having sex like all day everyday for 5 years. But we broke up about 4 months ago. Havnt had sex since, and i dont really care if i do or not. I mean i wouldnt turn a good roll in the hay down, but im not out hunting for it.
not as weird now that you clarified. your lack of desire is tied to your past relationship. that's actually quite common. if you desired and enjoyed sex before, you will again. your body will tell you (if not, get some counseling).

By the way I hate being called a widow.., I am a single adult who's husband died.
then choose "SINGLE" as your Marital Status on your profile instead of "WIDOWED"
there are over 6 billion people on this planet and about half are male...yeah, I'm sure out of that there are some that think what you fear above.

I'm 36...since i was in my early twenties, my dating history with girls they have usually been around age 21-26. i don't target that age, just know when i'm attracted to someone and that's the age they usually are. i have dated several women in their 30's but they have typically looked younger than their age. i'm not having a mid-life crisis as referenced above...simply my taste hasn't changed. why date girls at that age?...same reason a dog licks his balls...because i can

Why guys are not happy with one women
Posted:

not bulshit...study after study after study after study...i'm not making this up.
Most guys are perfectly happy to settle for one good woman.
you put a beautful woman in front of a man, and he knows nobody would ever find out, most men are going to screw her.

Posted:

most men cheat...period. most women too. is what it is. i stopped trying to figure out why because it really boils down to "because they can."
not everyone cheats. i have never as much held hands with another when i was in an agreed monogomous relationship with someone (but the times in between...that's different) . i don't have a desire to cheat if i feel close enough to someone to commit, but i believe this the minority (if my past partners' history is an indicator).

Posted:

I never understood this about men..
...because what you seek is permanant/long term. Not everyone (women included) are wanting a "ready for marriage" relationship but still enjoy the company of a companion. Many reasons for this, whether career, children, or may be just not emotionaly ready, etc...

Dating a Divorced Man
Posted:
7/6/2007 9:02:58 AM
How does a divorce, in this case, a second divorce, and a child from each one, affect a man when it comes to dating again?
every man is different...every situation different. I don't mix dating and my daughters, so my dating schedule is limited to half the week (teh time my girls and I are not together). That takes patience from my partner and isn't for everyone...I understand.
How long do men usually wait or need before dating again after going through a second divorce?
Some men started dating before the divorce (that's why they got divorced) hahaha. Again, every situation is different. Depends how attached they were to their spouse and more specifically how attached to their marriage.
Would a man feel he has too much baggage?
I don't feel I have too much baggage though maybe some women do. Is what it is... My girls aren't baggage, they are a part of me and contributed to who I am, as all life experiences do.
If this is the case would it prevent him from believing he can have a normal relationship with someone new even if he cared about them?
If this is the case, he has more issues than being divorced...
Also if a man is still depressed or suffering from low self esteem because of a second divorce, how would that affect him?
Depends if he blames himself, among other factors. I was depressed at first, more because of the break-up of my family unit and the effect it would have on my daughters. I'm fine now...my girls adjusted as well as could be expected.
What would someone have to deal with or do to make this man feel whole again and is it possible or even worth pursuing him?
Same you would do to a man that wasn't divorced...
Another question is can a man lose his sexual confidence if he hasn't been with a woman in a while, say a couple of years?
Could...try plenty of practice

sneak up behind them and hit them in the head with something heavy...then hide the body under the floorboards and sell the house before it smells...their feelings aren't hurt and you usually don't hear from them again.

A rant about not ready to date yet
Posted:
6/22/2007 11:45:08 AM
RAZ49
...my point was assuming she truely is still hung up on her ex and doesn't feel ready to date, then she is being honest with you. she wasn't honest to herself. eventually, she will be ready, but she's not going to wake up one day and "be ready." she's going to meet someone and be able to move forward. you, at this time, wasn't it. best to move on...may be she'll look you up later. don't pursue her though or you'll end up a "spare tire...," someone she knows she can have as a security blanket. bad position to be in.
would it have been better for her to continue to dialogue with you and date, knowing she couldn't give you her all because she still has tehse feelings for her ex? consider yourself lucky in that she bailed now and not later. throw your pool back in the water...

Is meeting more than one on the same day acceptable behavior?
Posted:
6/22/2007 9:12:28 AM
is it reasonable behavior to accept more than one invitation on the same day or is that considered poor form?
yes...this is reasonable. you're dating...
Each one is informed of the other either during the meet or if possible beforehand.
no...this is "poor form." no need to add more pressure for your date. no good can come of this.

RAZ_49
...sorry man. she's ready to date, just not ready to date you. if true and she really doesn't feel "she's ready yet because not over her ex," its likely only because she hasn't met the guy that makes her forget about her ex...yet.

The problem with justifying cheating is that every transgression and crime can be justified. You could steal from the local church and find some way to justify it. If someone is going to cheat, then just do it, and don't even bother with a justification.
