I stated previously that I would never post another forum on CS...I was tired of getting my head chewed off.

Well here I am again! : ) I need some CS advice (Be Nice)! : )

How do you keep motivated on CS? I've been played so many times, you'd think I'm a game board.

How comes, I keep attracting these insecure, unintelligent, intimidated by smart women, idiots??

Has anyone had the same experiences?

If you find out, let me know, because I'd like to know the same thing. Add "men who couldn't be honest if their life depended on it."

dunno confused

I was just curious, because this seems to be a common thing for the let's say over 35 attractive women...being hit on by the 20 something boys.

I've heard it more than you can count with your hands.

I don't have answers...just as curious. Domination fantasies perhaps.

Desiring a bit of substance for sure. It's something like a phenomenon.

Hey tafini - don't sweat the small stuff cheers

I don't seem to be attracting any real interest so far, and reviewing the threads dealing with things that may intimidate men has helped me understand why grin

Sorry I don't have any useful advice....yet. Anyone (men or women) out there got any suggestions?! conversing

Okay I am not going to be mean or bight your head off. The first thing I saw when I looked at your profile is your picture and if I were one of those guys I wouldn't have looked any further;I would have emailed you. Those guys look at the body and nothing else. The second thing I noticed in your profile is that you very fun loving and out going. You just don't sound too real in your profile. You honestly sound like one of those ditsy bimbos(not calling you a bimbo) that are in to clothes and parties which makes you an easy target for those types of guys. You did mention trying not to be too agressive in your profile; stop, be very agressive or forward in your profile that will detour those types of men. A real, smart and intellegent man will see through the forwardness and take the time to get to know you. Bottom line is your profile is the thing that attracks who you are looking for. It should reflect just that.

I have seen you in the forums and so I know a little about you, but from your profile alone I would not date you for more than a date(killing time as it would be). You seem like a nice person but your profile portrays you as something you are not.

Just remember if they complain about what you put in your profile, chances are they are not what you are looking for.

Sorry, but I am talking about mature men...late thirties to late forties... Some of them even go out of their way to tell me that if I give them a chance, they would never break my heat...

I'm sorry your having a hard time. Believe it or not there are "men" who actually talk about wanting something of substance and they aren't lying.

I suppose there "crisisers" grabing their toupees, convertables, and trying to nail anything with a leg in a skirt that moves.


But you see I'm trapped now and not being forthright like "The Graduates"
are. So I can only "say" for what it's worth...there are people out there (here) that want the same things.

Hang in there.

Thanks! When I read his respose, I was like, what?

Maybe, I should show some ghetto attitude...then I'd get men saying, I love domineering women, and how do you like it!!! I am not any of those - I am a nice, humble, well mannered woman.

My profile is me - I am a Queen looking for my King! My father still calls me his Princess!

Don't lie!scold Take the high road, and don't stoop to that level. angel Remove all restrictions on your match - not sure yet if it will help, but that's one thing I recently did. Seems the guys can be very sensitive, or shy, and if they are 1 year older that your desired range, or think of themselves as 'average' when they are really buff, you may have inadvertantly turned them away. In the end, it is a numbers game, right?! cheers

Thanks! I'm confused though - I was very detailed in my profile because I thought it would attract the right men - maybe I should use a one liner - maybe I'm too detailed! About the age thing - I'm gonna take you advise on that!

If there's one thing I've learned about online dating it doesn't make a bit of difference what is in your profile description. You're going to get contacted by any man out there who thinks you're attractive enough. See, because he doesn't CARE what YOU want; he only cares what HE wants.

so this was just a game to get someone to compound the answer you had already come to. Contimplate this and then think about why said situation keeps happening to you.

I think she already knows why; it's because, as I said, (many) men don't care what women want; they only care what they want.

dunno

I understand, totally. So, keep the details to yourself, use them to screen any responses, and block anyone who is rude or being inappropriate based on YOUR standards. Again, don't know if this works or not, I have no track record afterall grin It does put you in control of the decisions, and it is your life after all grin cheers

The way I see this online thing - you are increasing the odds. That is what I meant by it being a numbers game. It only take one stupid inappropriate statement for a guy to demonstrate that they are not worth another thought. My favorite example is this guy who bothered to respond to my profile to criticize one of the ways I describe myself - so I simply blocked him grin rolling on the floor laughing

I've blocked some and I don't even bother to respond to those who obviously have not read my profile.
