What is the most exotic place you have traveled?

I have recently been to India. My dream vacation would be to go to Australia.

How much time do I need for you?
Posted: 6/29/2009 9:35:03 AM
It's going to be different for each woman you meet. You can't expect the magic answer here.

women and messaging
Posted: 6/22/2009 5:45:06 PM

i've noticed a bunch of threads in the ask a guy forums about why guys will check out profiles and add women to favorites but not say anything. I hear a lot about being independent and all that BS but when it comes to guys you wont step into the 21st century and message him first then. Guys are as insecure as women. So my question is to every women that always ask this question. Do bother messaging the guy checking you out or do you fall into the "i'm to strong of a women to message a guy" category?


If he's added me to his favorites as a passive way of getting my attention, rather than just emailing me, I probably will not write to him. If someone wants to email me, they should do so rather than waiting around for me to email them.

Saw Films = No?
Posted: 6/22/2009 5:33:45 PM

My favorite movie series is "Saw" and I've seen every movie atleast 4 times, now this is something she won't touch with a 10 foot pole, I don't make that big a deal out of it but I see it as a bit unfair.


Not sure why it seems unfair to you. Some people don't like those types of movies. I'm one of them. I wouldn't enjoy it if someone I was dating tried to make me watch them. There are many other movies out there to watch with your girlfriend. Find something else.

so, why are you still single?
Posted: 6/15/2009 5:24:27 PM
Maybe it was the kind of women you were choosing to date? I never expect the guy to pay and always offer. Some haven't let me pay, but I offered anyway.

Hard to believe? Are you kidding me? Most women seem to want to keep thier money for themselves, spend it on what they want and then expect a guy to pay when they go somewhere.
It is the same as saying men and women can't find decent men and women. Because they are becoming few and far between. More and more people are becoming more and more selfish, seems what is in it for them is what matters. That is aimed at both men and women.

I respect those women who on a night out have no problem splitting up the expense of the night. Like the ones I mentioned. One buys the movie tickets, the other buys the food for the movie. Not many women are this way. This is why I am still single. I guess because I am cheap and refuse to pay for nights out all the time.


Maybe you should try bringing it up in a conversation before going out with someone new? That way, you'll know up front whether they expect you to pay or not. Since you'd rather have someone who splits the bill, you'll know who those ladies are from the beginning.

I never liked the cute little names from guys I don't know. So, I probably would not have liked that either.

I would love to meet a woman who will take turns paying for nights out. Split the groceries for dinner instead of one buying them all the time. One pays for the movie ticket, the other pays for the popcorn and coke. One pays for the baseball tickets, the other for the hot dogs and drinks. But what I find most common are women who want the guy to pay for it all. Sad. And the women reply "He should be happy I am with him" Ya nice answer!!


I find it hard to believe when guys say they can never find women like this.

Nothing excites me over 30
Posted: 6/15/2009 9:33:16 AM

Now that I'm 32, I'm feeling quite jaded with a been there done that attitude. Almost nothing excites me anymore because I've either done it before or have read enough about it. Here are some examples of what I'm talking about:

Travel -- already been around the world
Hobbies -- have a good half dozen of them
Money -- have enough savings to sustain my lifestyle for 100 years
Friends -- had some close ones, but most moved on in their lives now

So in looking for a relationship, how does one go about getting excited about it when you feel bored with life? I've been using online dating for the past two years. But nobody I meet moves me. the novelty is just not there any more, so there's no romance in the dating.

Are there other people over 30 who still get excited when dating?


Only 32 and already bitter and jaded? That must be an awful way to get through life. Seems as though you need to figure out exactly why you're so bored with life at such a young age before you try dating.

how many questions is good for first email?
Posted: 6/14/2009 10:44:58 AM

I don't find them, they find me. I'm on a 119 favourites lists and they are not all bookmarking me.


Ah, nothing like bragging.

The key is to make the questions about her by reading her profile. Stay away from the typical "how long have you been single?" or "why are you single?" or "what do you do for fun?" types of questions. Once you get to know them a bit, that stuff comes out anyway.

Why The Dishonest Profiles?!
Posted: 6/14/2009 10:40:35 AM

But, a friend of mine once told me that I'll never find the (type of) woman I seek on the internet ... and so far, she's been completely right.


What type of woman are you looking for? I find the best thing to do is be open minded, rather than have one specific type of person you're looking for.

What makes for a great opening message?
Posted: 6/14/2009 10:36:58 AM
Always read their profile before attempting to send an email. Find something in her profile to comment about. The first email doesn't have to be long, but make sure there's something for her to reply to, otherwise you'll run the risk of getting no reply.

To message or not.
Posted: 6/14/2009 10:32:54 AM

Someone views you, yet they don't message. I have done this several times for different reasons. I would say for the most part its becase they already have so many friends. So I think whats the use it will just get over looked and I move on.

Seeing as that would not be a distraction for ladies that view me, I'm guessing they saw something that they were not looking for, I'm fine with that.

So they view me, I view them back. No one messages. I don't message because they didn't. Not because I saw something telling me "shes not for me".

So I am wandering how others address this cat and mouse game??


If you want to message them, do so. Don't just wait around for them to do it. The only thing you're going to accomplish that way is not getting anywhere at all.

Why The Dishonest Profiles?!
Posted: 6/14/2009 10:00:00 AM

So my question to the women is, why do people lie in their profiles; specifically, why do women lie?


As you said in your post, men lie too. So, it's not specific to women. You should be asking why anyone lies on here, as people will find out as soon as they meet.

Phone number/texting on the first or second message?
Posted: 6/14/2009 9:36:37 AM

Whats the difference between talking on here and talking on text messages? If shes out alot or doesnt have a computer at home or doesnt get online often at home then a text message is much more convienent.


Have you ever actually tried to get to know someone via text messages? It's pretty much a waste of time.

Posted: 6/13/2009 8:48:18 AM
I find this happens with men a lot. I receive first or second emails with phone numbers. Either them wanting me to call, or wanting to get to know each other via texts. Neither works that quickly.

Ladies, what does it take to meet in person?
Posted: 6/13/2009 8:45:46 AM

I want to meet as many single women as I can. I don't know whether it will just be a one time meeting and conversation, or whether friendship or soulmate will develop, but I would rather meet and treat a woman in her 30s or 20s in person than just email. Why do females always resist meeting?


Maybe it's because you're trying to meet as many women as you can? If I meet someone, it's because I found something interesting about him and wanted to see how it goes. If he's constantly meeting women from here, I'm not going to be interested in long. If I know he's meeting tons of women before we meet, I probably will decide not to.

Should a guy have to chase you ?

If you really have to chase her, she's not that into you. Find someone who is.

Over 30 and still hitting the clubs?
Posted: 6/13/2009 8:41:21 AM
While I don't think there is an age limit on who can go clubbing, I'm definitely not looking for someone who is out doing that every weekend. Been there, done that. Not interested in it anymore.

Northern Va
Posted: 12/3/2008 11:48:28 AM

Sorry to be pessimistic but I am starting to believe that a Northern Va POF Meet and Greet is not going to happen. I would set it up but I do not know of many places to have it up here. I don't get out much and I can't afford much now because of buying a house and having to pay my really high deductible on my car because of a deer. So if anything magically changes let me know.


That does sound awfully pessimistic. It can't be that hard to get people together sometime.

Buy flowers or pick them?
Posted: 8/5/2008 1:01:30 PM

Pft, you guys aren't thinking big enough. Screw the flowers. I'd get her a custom-made pink vibrating dildo with notches, and in gold lettering at the hilt:

"From John, with Love."


Then she may have no need for you, huh?

going to cinema on own
Posted: 8/5/2008 12:40:51 PM

Well,
Going to a movie alone is perhaps one of the things that would be okay to do alone. Most activities, on the other hand are not much fun when you go solo. Yes, unfortunate as it may be, there is a certain stereotypical stigmatism associated with you when you do things alone. Unfortunate but true.

I would go solo to a movie, though I haven't. If you would like to go see the movie, then go anyway. It is most likely better than staying home but I wouldn't count on it being a place to socialize or hook up with anyone :)


What kinds of activities are not ok to do alone?

Favorites List?????
Posted: 8/5/2008 12:12:58 PM
I don't use my favorites list at all. I also routinely go through those who have added me but never contacted me and remove them.

Kiss on the first date?

Try just going with the mood. You should be able to figure out if it's a good idea to kiss your date or not.

what's with girls shooting the bird
Posted: 8/5/2008 6:44:53 AM

I don't understand why girls shoot the bird in their pictures on dating sites. It's dumb, unattractive, and immature. Maybe they're trying to be tough or something. All I have to say to it is NEXT!


Is it any different if guys do it?
