In response to: A recurrent theme on both the forums and blogs is women complaining there are no good men out there, and men complaining there are no good women out there.
All the people who post must consider themselves to be in that category, so surely that means there must be a lot of good men and good women out there.
Do people only concentrate on the negative? Are they too blinkered to see the good in front of them? Would they even recognise good?
I have met some great men and women on CS, so I am not taken in by the negativity.
Do people really want to find someone, do they only want to be negative and alone?
"Good" has different meaning for different people.
For me it means someone that is compatible as similar values, view in life and wanting to built up a future together.
I know that there aren't a ton of them out there, but it definitely is possible.
Some people are unrealistic and have a complete warped view of themselves and I don't think that they will ever find someone. But that's a choice as well.

Hi KN, yes, I agree 'good' has different meanings to different people.
And many do have unrealistic expectations, possibly brought on by the people-brochure effect of the internet.

Hmmmm negative positive negative positive .... Do you know that a molecule of Ozone (O3) is actually a molecule of Oxygen (O2) with one additional Atom?
Otay..... well I almost always have to mental floss while I read your posts so I'm now ready to see you naked in good lighting alone and without fluid spirits.

I find that CS tends to envelope itself to a seriously cramped family.

Hiya Soph,
A lot of posters "know" each other well and as in every family or community, there are those that are in the middle of it and others keep more to themselves.

What's wrong with being negative and alone?
Positivity is the madness of pretending you're good when you're clearly not and if there was a bloke sitting next to you would this somehow make everything better?

That is why I left it as a question, as some people might see the positivity in negativity.

Hi Molly,
A constant, endless state of positivity brings to my mind the thought there is some well hidden or well controlled problem with emotion management. If someone is "happy" all the time and nothing can make him show a bit od feeling down or angry or any other negative-ish feeling...I won't trust such person for a second. Stuffing down and deep inside your negative emotions can only harm your mental health. As for the "not looking" members, many just can not afford to start a relationship at that moment...due to different reasons...

Hi Krema, thanks for your input
But I never either mentioned people who are 'happy' all the time, nor 'not looking' members.
The theme of the blog was about "women complaining there are no good men out there, and men complaining there are no good women out there'
