Can you give more details? how many times did it happen this year and so on.. Maybe you're not doing everything wrong, maybe you're just picking the wrong guys....
well, ok. its happened 4 times in the past three months. one guy freaked out on me and was like "i know who you use to be!!" and then two are like "i work too much" and hell the other wont even answer phone calls or emails, lol.
Another question, do you during those first dates assumed the same attitude you expressed in your "I'm looking for" from your profile? if so, i would run away too, we in general prefer to start things smooth and easy, leave something to wonder about, it's ok to make it clear what your expectations are but not upfront (let us try to guess a lil).
forbiddendesire: yeah, i suppose i am a little agressive, BUT IM HONEST. if they ask me a question they get to know what they asked for.
well!, next time try not to open the whole book from the beginning, you can still be honest but at some questions you could suggest'em you'll let them try to figure out the answer, believe me, they'll come back or more

Back up there a bit bald eagle.....there is nothing wrong with the Lady's profile....just because she states what type of guy she is looking for she is being straight up about that.....some men cant stand a woman who cuts through the chase and some men love it but please dont generalise for all men as to how they feel about that....

I agree. If you're the type who is honest and straight up then that's who you are and why should you change it.
I had an ex once who's next door neighbour was a single mother. My ex used to laugh about her and say she'd never get a man because she told them straight up she wanted a serious long term relationship. She was never short of dates but most of them ended pretty quickly. Within a year however, she had met a lovely guy who was a single parent also and they were engaged to be married.

I never said there's anything wrong with her profile, actually i believe it's perfect and detailed, what i meant was that she shouldn't point out every single detail during the first date, that's the way it is and it works either way (you may like a new guy so much you melt for him but if his first words to you are "come to my place i wanna rock your world", I'm sure the magic would disappear, or not?).
All I'm suggesting her is don't seat in front of the guy on the first date and lecture him what she likes and what she doesn't, and a detailed list o her expectations, we are natural born researchers, we enjoy so much trying to unveil mysteries and discover things.

Just shooting from the hip, it may be that you are picking the wrong guys to date. Are you going for the hunks who all the girls are after? Maybe they are taking you out and spending money on you expecting a little action at the end of the evening and if you don't put out they split. Sorry about being crude but we're all adults in here. Then you said one guy said you work too much but your profile doesn't say what you do. If you're in retail food you are working on weekends which could be a problem. It's certainly not your looks that are hurting you so it must be something else. Use the process of elimination. Then too, you could always just ask the guy(s) what's making you not want to go out with me again? That sometimes works if the guy has guts enough to say.
forbiddendesire: alright, ill try some of the stuff you guys said, thanx
I just took a look at your profile and I don't see anything wrong with it! You are a very good lookin woman and seem to be set in your ways! If I were twenty years younger and lived closer to Amarillo, you'ld be in trouble!
