flightie777: Hi,
Im sorry but where is the negativity? Not all women are players..I am one of those who wrote similar things..I dont want a one night stand..whats wrong with that? Or should all women just spread their legs open at the site of the first weirdo they come across? And some of us are only after friendships and companionship or simply a penpal...I still dont get what is negative about writing these things down..Its called honesty and setting oneself a certain standard. If a man seeks ''casual encounters'' then Im certain that there are some women who will be fine with that..as for the others...just skip their profile and move on.
And when we write those things its because we do come across a lot of men who clearly just want to fool around..and CS is more of a social network...there are other sites for players.

Regards

maybe, just maybe, the ladies are just somehow more realistic than men :P

no pun intended but i suppose it's good to stay true to yourself from time to time and save yourself from wasting time.
i must say though i'm seriously thinking to change my profile and state there am not looking for anything serious right now.
although i know, i would be lying to say that in the end, i'd like to be able to find a good man in my life

hey, women are complicated being, meh...
what can i say peace

You missed the point.


I doubt it..but u r entitled to your opinion. Negativity is saying something like I hate the rain or cant stand the smell of the ocean or life is too difficult...but saying what I DO NOT seek in a partner is just to reduce the number of men contacting me unnecessarily..as they are wasting their time and mine! and yes..I do set standards for myself and thats a very positive thing for me.

GotTrance: This is what I read in far too may profiles:
I DONT LIKE LIERS OR PLAYERS
F.Y.I.!!! NOT SEEKING F.W.B. TYPE OF RELATIONSHIP
No one night stands
not looking to hook up
if your a woman beater pass me by
if you live with your momma, move on

And so forth.
Why do you women think it is necessary to post that stuff?


Have seen equivalent in many guys' profiles dunno

Beats me why anyone would want to concentrate on what they DON'T want instead of what they DO want ...

Apparently the Irish made up most of your first Democrat party. It's a shame the other side have the 'Republican' mantle... JMO! wave

Personally, I don't believe what men or women write in their profiles if it's more than a line or two. I think it should be just enough to get someones interest. My profile is blunt and to the point without being negative.

I personaly agree that negative sentences in profiles are off putting ...

all negative sentences can be changed to positive affirmations about what you do want.

I DONT LIKE LIERS OR PLAYERS.
I like honest men with a sense of purpose and integrity.


F.Y.I.!!! NOT SEEKING F.W.B. TYPE OF RELATIONSHIP.
I am looking for a long term relationship ...


No one night stands not looking to hook up
... as I don't enjoy casual ones.

if your a woman beater pass me by
I enjoy discussions with an emotionally mature man who is able to share his views with a calm and patience.

if you live with your momma, move on
Sharing my life with an independant man would suite me as blah blah blah ...


Hope it helps ...

Some say that what you DON'T WANT is often what you get. So I have been practising saying what I DO WANT ...

I really doubt it that anyone's profile will contain only the sentences mentioned...I also put other things..these sentences are just to reduce the number of unnecessary contacts..its not all gloomy and negative..These points are only part of the profile not all of it.

I agree but I'm not looking for a relationship. I had a pic on up until yesterday. I took it off because it is five years old and that would be important if I was looking for a date. I've changed alot in five years so it wouldn't be fair to show a pic that's not what I look like today. I'm only here for the forums so it doesn't matter that I don't have a pic. That pic that I took off has been on for five years so everybody here knows what I look like. I know you're kidding.

By the way I luv your pic. That's hilarious.. laugh

Conorco: You don't seem to have too much success at the weeding, do ya?


Actually, I do have success at weeding that stuff out when I've been communicating a lot with a man.


I learned what to look for when I went through my Irish trial of fire my first month or so on CS. tongue
