Why is it so difficult to find love nowadays?

That has exactly been my experience with women since the 90's...

Does that suprise you?

Does this mean that I don't have a set of balls because I rather the women come to me?

Maybe you're too eager.

Are you calling me UGLY!

No, I'm saying you don't give women the chance to pick you up because you're already sniffing thier ass before you even take off your coat...

Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

You know you sniff one bum.....

Nah I'm not "on" 24/7 and I'll be honest, I have never been hit on at a bar.....by any girl I found attractive.

Who knows. Maybe this summer

I agree that *both* genders have a responsibility in "putting themselves forward." Just remember that it takes a LOOOOOOONG time to undo thousands (?) of years of social conditioning...

Social conditioning? If it really were a social construct then It'd be gone in one generation. Not that long ago being gay was considered a mental illness. Nowadays being gay is a non-issue and gays can get married and probably soon will be able to adopt children too.

Women not approaching men has shit all to do with social constructs and everything to do with biology.

Social conditioning does not take only one generation to disappear. But granted, an element of biology is probably at play as well.

And homosexuality is *not* a non-issue... If it were, it wouldn't even occur to you to mention it!

Ok... You are *clearly* not talking about me here...

And even if your theories were right... That women only want money and men only want sex... If it's consensual and mutually beneficial, what the hell is the problem, anyway??? If it really were that base and that simple, then seriously.. Women have pussy; men have money. It would mean that there is a fair exchange going on.. Why do you find this so upsetting??

I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.

How old are you?

Just curious, do you think we put less emphasis on "finding love" as we age? Now that I am older, finding love is less important. It would be nice if it happened, but I am in no rush to make it happen. As Nataly pointed out it is better to be happy within yourself. If you are not happy with yourself you will never make someone else happy.

His questions about relationships reveal a possible a dating maturity of a late teen to early twenties person. I think that's why she asked. . .

Or he's a bonifide hopeless romantic.

I think it's endearing & refreshing to see this side of guys !

Trust me when I say...eventually woman do want to be with guys that want genuine love...for the long haul !

Younger gals typically want the 'show off' relationship...materialistic & physical appeal, rather than guys of 'substance' ...and the same goes for guys!

Sure it's cool to have a bad boy image, because yes, chicks like it...for awhile !

On the same level, guys want the all around chick...the good for the image kind of woman !

Eventually that all wanes, & the search is back on...

Just give it some time, SHE will notice the genuine man !

The comradery, compatibility & all the good stuff will be there, wanted & reciprocated !

You got that boys? Once she's been around the block once or twice or three times and is jaded with life after a steady diet of tools.....you now have a chance!
WTF!
Come on doll! I know a girl like this!
Beautiful girl, smart, MS in Psychology and makes great money.....dated tools for all of her life UNTIL she got knocked up. Little one popped out...tool ran for the hills...actually for ANOTHER STATE! And then guess what....the guy who had a crush on her all through out high school she found him and....finally he "got the girl."
YEAH! POOR DUMB ASS! Actually thinks he's getting the deal of a life time. Yeah right!
You tell me who got the shaft and who got the leftovers.

Are you shitting me, Shah? Your standards for YOUR dating doesn't bug me, we're all entitled to our wants and desires.

Now, to say this guy who is with the woman he'd wanted for years, especially this guy who is raising her child, got the shaft and make fun of him on the internet, now that pisses me off. Because you know what, the man I call Dad is NOT my biological father. My father is a douche, and my DAD loves my mother and loves me and raised me as his own. There are a lot of us in this world who have awesome parents that didn't have to be those parents. Now that, Shah, takes a hell of a lot more balls and love than you will ever have.

You're missing his point.

Its not about the kid. The kid is irrelevant.

Its about the disrespect the woman showed towards the man.

In her youth she kept fucking bad boys and partying. Later in her life when she made mistakes and ran out of options she gave that guy a chance simply because she couldn't keep behaving the way she had been and needed someone to save herself.

Its basically one life long pity fuck. No man with an ounce of self respect shouldn't put themselves in that position.

Your rights end where my feelings begin.

Or she grew up. Which I can sympathize with; so did I.

Don't think you meant to say that.

All he said is that she dated tools and that he crushed on her in high school. Now I don't know how long it was between high school and this baby, but likely they both changed. And just because what she wanted in a man changed does not necessarily mean she disrespected this guy. Hey, she may have, but guess what? They were in high school. I was a moody bitch in high school. Who hasn't changed since high school or college? PS- there are many people that knew each other for years before one or both parties realized they should be together. That does not make it a pity fuck.
