If there is no decent man where you are, then the problem is probably in the area. Move!

Sorry not able to answer your poll. Only thing that I can think of for your question is. Your profile states you are unemployed and already have two children at 23 years old. Some (honestly most) are not looking to raise a child that is not theirs. Or your location is difficult for others to pertain to. Do not take it the wrong way. On the other hand your profile was refreshing and more then likely portrays you in real life.

Because there are just far too many of them, which makes it soooo hard for you to chose any ONE of them when you imagine that you might be missing out on something far better in any of the (potentially) countless other ones. There's such a massive surplus of decent guys in the world that you could never be content for long with the one you finally DO choose...He'd only have to show the slightest ineptitude and you'll be back on that computer looking for another one before he was out the door! Here in Sweden so many women choose "indecent" guys because they're more of a turn on. You can't win!

Too many negatives in your profile. Either spin them into positives, rephrase or rewrite the profile. Specifically; two kids, pos car, looking for work, not getting along with some family - sounds too much like an invitation to trouble, rather than the opportunity to meet a vivacious creature.

BTW, how's life on the Delaware? (Old Joisey boy here)

Yeah. I have a theory on your last sentence/thought that I have been ruminating over for years...

As to the profile, I found it limiting. No chess? Does that include, then, by transference, intelligent guys? Guys who don't compete? Guys who don't get into other games and sports?

Plus, as one of the above posters noted, you already have kids, and that's always a tough situation.

Broaden your appeal base a bit and learn to compromise a little in your search for love. Find real people doing real things with real emotions. Find reasons to connect with prospective mates, not reasons not to; and likely they'll respond in kind.

lusciousmile: I honestly don't think the guy was being mean. He has a child as well.

Do you realise that what he said is likely an opinion shared by more men? His opinion was given well and is just as valuable as yours.


Lush, At his age with kids he should have learnt to be more understanding, and not quite so judgemental...he doesn't even know why she has two kids......hell for all anyone knows her husband may have been shot in Iraq 18 months ago!

People though are always quick to judge, and this place is no different from anywhere elsecheers

Very interesting.....the body of her profile states she has two children and no job, yet the right hand side states no kids and a $50,000 to $75,000 a year job at the age of 23?????????

She does say she has "2 wonderful boys" but i don't see unemployed anywhere.

Even if she is unemployed, it doesn't make any difference, hell in the last 2 months in the UK 250,000 lost their jobs.....were in a shrinking world economy.....most employers are cutting back!professor

I did not see the man judge the lady. He simply stated a preference and the likelihood that it is shared by other men. What is so hard to believe or judgemental about saying one is not ready to raise another's children? I know a lot of women with kids who would not get married to men who have kids from previous relationships, as well. It's just preference. I personally don't want to date a man who has an army of little kids, because I want several of my own. It is hard emotional, physical and financial work to raise children and the thought of being in such a situation with love, and children from previous relationships even scarier.
Nothing judgemental about that and I think the world should stop expecting people to understand every little detail of every other person's personal life.

Girl, i'll tell you plainly - you'll only get guys like you, going according to your profile - and that can't be too 'decent'. Not that you are not a decent person, just that there's are inconsistencies between your generic profile and your 'about me'.
Then, if i take your 'about me' apart, you have two kids, unemployed, have problems with family, that's not what decent guys look for. But basically, i personally think you are too young to be on the net looking for guys, you really must have them flocking aroung you like bees to honey. So take the ones you meet every day and leave the net for more those with complicated cases!!!

lol...I just noticed the "looking for work" as well.

That's what happens when your doing a test on road regulations and flicking between screenslaugh

Well the biggest clue about the profile is the picture, it's small, and is of the type picked up from the net to trawl for Email addresses.

Besides, any 23 year old female can find a boyfriend...it's easy...i don't know why anyone is bothered, honestly!rolling on the floor laughing

Why should anyone have to justify or defend their profile, if someone does not like it they do not have to respond. You would be surprised things happen when you least expect it, life is funny sometimes, try to be patient and not push so hard. Good Luck.comfort wine
