Why is it so difficult to find love nowadays?

Don't you also have income and physical size requirements? (And of course one who hasn't met you before so you're not a plan B)

I get it Shah, I'm just giving you a hard time because you frequently come across as having a rather low opinion of women in general.

I agree with you about not wanting to be someone's plan B. I would rather be single than be with someone I don't love or who doesn't love me.

I think Arvoitus has supplanted him in the race to never get laid at any DZ ever again. :ph34r::ph34r:

He is going to have to join the Wing Buddies and get a tandem rating... I hear they actually "score" once in a while with the very new girls who have no information about their track record.

Income no, no requirement there.
Size I think I have written down Size Medium or under.

Which according to some is just way too much to ask.

But back on track and to perhaps slow the Shah hating....

Sorry, I assumed your $35K number was a requirement; sounds like it's just a nice-to-have.


Just a nice to have.
It would be nice if she made more. Nothing wrong with that.
But yeah a nice to have.
It's funny you guys have this immage of me of only dating Barbies and well I have but....I'm a little more mellow than that. :)
But a MUST HAVE...must like cats. I have two and they were here first and will be her for a long time.

As for the OP.....can I ask a dumb qeustion?
Do you have a list of what you are looking for in a person?
A quick 10 item list that you can look at and see what you really want in a partner?

The point is that sometimes people change. I'm sure there are guys I went to high school with that I didn't even glance at then that I might find attractive now. I'm older and wiser and looking for much different qualities in a man that I was when I was young.

Didn't Morrissey do that once?
I'm not at the DZ or at eny place to get laid.
I'm there because I love the sport. I love the people.

Well I have a friend that is happily married now to a really famous ex porn star, she was in some movies that most guys would be weirded out by.(gangbang girl movies)

They have been married now for 16 years, so please tell me how her fucking literally thousands of guys made her less desirable?:S



It would make her less desirable to some guys, but apparently it did not make her less desirable to the right guy for her.

A person's job, hobbies, sex drive, kinks, etc. all contribute to the persons's personality and therefore to how desirable they are to someone else. What one person may find undesirable, another may find desirable. Such is life.

It's your choice. This is America. FWIW, I probably wouldn't either. Been there done that. Actually in my case, it was a girl from my hometown that I met in college right at the beginning of our freshman years. She was beautiful. Funny how that works out, meet someone from your hometown in college a thousand miles away? Anyway, we talked a few times just because of the curiosity but it never really got any further. It was a new and exciting point in our lives being in college for the first time away from home, and a relationship was not the best thing to have then. Well, she disappeared shortly after the fall quarter started. Had no idea what happened. Thought nothing else about her since.... until....

7 years later, I bumped into her at a party because she asked someone else "I think I know that guy, could you please introduce us?" When I saw her, I immediately blurted out her name and she welcomed me with open arms for a hug. I couldn't believe I remembered her name despite only seeing her for a few weeks and not thinking of her for the next 6 or so years. Well we started dating, I courted her and we got engaged. Then the problems started. I won't go into details but I realized two things: I was not ready for marriage at 25, and she was not the right person for me. Haven't seen her since, could care less.

Edited to add: I forgot to mention that the reason she disappeared is because she was unfortunate enough to be standing in a group of 15 students waiting for the bus on campus when they were attacked and beaten up by what turned out to be fraternity pledges. Some were injured badly, and the fucking college covered it up. I never knew about it. >:( The girl I met suffered back and neck injuries from the attack. She had some PTSD symptoms for a while but that was largely gone by the time I re-met her. What I found incompatible later on was her strong personality coming from a family of 5 girls and a life-long military career dad. She had to have her way or else. Fuck that.

Dude you were not plan B.

Being mean to good people, the girl.

Maybe not, but she did date a string of losers for a number of years. But she was strong willed enough to not make a bad mistake with any of them.

So you weren't Plan B.
If she had dated this string, was in a bad spot and needed to be saved and these loosers were all gone and she reached out to you...then you would have been Plan B.
As it stands, it was just one of those things that didn't work out [:/]

It's similar to choosing between two perfect candidates for a job, but one doesn't have that college degree.



If they're both "perfect" candidates, then the degree seems irrelevant.


Hey, don't look at me...I'd take em both if I could.;)

In the situation you described? I would be.

Scenario: I knew a few women in college who I was pretty close to. Never went out with most of them; they often had boyfriends, were too busy etc. If one of them had gotten married, gotten a divorce, then we met up again and she'd been interested (and I was as well) - I'd have no problem with it.

Of course I don't see that as a "plan B" - I just see that as growing up.

Bill I don't know you, but from what I have read they should have noticed you sooner.

Unless she got the house in the divorce and you are just sliding on in, in which case...oh you dirty dog!

I was just one of many guys in a big college. People don't notice each other at first for all sorts of reasons, the primary one being they're just not ready. It would be hard for me to hold that against someone, because there were a lot of things I wasn't ready for, either. (But neither my lack of readiness nor their lack of readiness would mean, to me, that a later relationship would be a "plan B.")

Let's look at it another way. Let's say you tried to get on your DZ's sponsored open class 4-way team. They took one look at your video and said "maybe later, your skills need some work."

So you say "stupid stuck up skygods" and start getting coaching, going to wind tunnels, doing bigways etc. Years later you mention you're still interested in 4-way, and now you get an invitation to be on the team.

Would you ignore it, not wanting to be their "plan B?"

That's easy - the one who has had sex before. The one who has never had sex with anyone is not going to understand much about it.



Someone who has held 1765 different jobs in their career isn't going to understand much about holding down a job.

True. But if you want a skydiving partner, the woman with 1765 jumps is probably going to be a better choice than someone with 0 jumps.

True, but a person with 1765 jumps would be a more reliable choice than someone with 1765 previous partners.

Was this part of the frat initiation?
