Totally agree. Besides, saying "Europe", americans often forget that they mean many countries with different languages, history and mentality, and to bring them all into one scope is a mistake. Talking about WW2, I would suggest to the author of this thread to compare soviet and american school text books in history .. it is very interesting that the "dectatorship" and the "democracy" have a very similar way to estimate their role in the victory ;) But talking in numbers, the USA have lost 418 000 people, and the USSR - 26 600 000 ... so lack of men is felt even now ))) feel the difference.
agree .. also one famous person during his interview mentioned that the best match for a rich famous guy is a rich famous girl.. And I also believe that best matches are the ones who come from more or less similar educational and social background. SO I guess in my case I should become pretty, witty and financially stable myself ;)
well, at least it saves our time also .. by the way, many guys also complain that we expect too much without having much to offer .. so looks like it is a fair game ))
you have never seen dating profiles of Russian guys who consider themselves matching this description .. instead of describing their ideal match, they put a list of features they do not want to see in a woman .. One of the funniest - "please do not contact me if you have no time to do your nails (manicure-pedicure) and if your underwear do not match in colour, because I find it a complete turn-down." . Also, surprisingly, on some russian dating sites it is possible to state your car and mobile brand (so you can easily distinguish "expensive" guys).. the point is what for put a picture with an expensive car and state your car brand officially, if your inention is "to find a girl who will like me who I am"?
I was talking about objective circumstances that people often refer to.. from my own experience ;) as for my volleyball skills, they are rather poor but compensated by enthusiasm
being handsome and witty is definitely a nice basis to start with, this is something that attracts people from the first sight (even if to attractd doesn't mean to keep .. so let's talk about some real qualities, not just shallow manner of presentation) as for rich, seems this word is very annoying for a public opinion, for me it is more about security, common sense, protected future.. and for a woman it is very important when thinking about starting a family. So I vote for this ... keeping some space for exceptions due to objective circumstances. Even if being married 5 years to the guy with neverending objective circumstances I prefer to stay subjective for this point ;)
regarding 26-years old daughter – it was extracted from another person’s comment :) I AM 30 and I like to climb the trees :) This is my hobby in the middle of my searches ;)
Belazes are produced in my country, does it mean I have more chances here? )) anyway it seems that before men were more prone to show off who they are (strength, speed, energy, courage, savage spirit, whatever) and now they show off more what they have .. What about us, ladies? Have we been changing our approaches and manners?
fortunately for the humanity, different men like different women, and the other way round )) As for the propotions - to be honest, I pulled in my stomach when measuring
it is not only about the size but also about proportion .. frankly speaking, I even measured it yesterday looking at my male colleagues and trying to imagine any of them carrying a mammoth ...
Let's say, these questions of yours filter out people with a different approach to communication, friendship and relationship. And in my opinion, it is also about being responsible and having a clear idea of what to look for in the partner. So if these people step aside after first exchange of remarks - well, nobody's time is wasted. a toast to logic and reason
Call me paranoic, but I have even category of messages that provoke some logical questions from me: - unconditioned frienship The very first letter with "Hi, wanna be friends?" makes me feel tensed - frienship is wonderful but it is also selective, and this is why it is so precious. To call somebody "friend" requires time and communication, it's not the subject for the first message, no matter if it comes from abroad or my own country. I believe in unconditioned love but conditioned friendship, so my usual question is - Are you sure it is ME who you want to make friends with?
- unconditioned marriage proposals "I want to know you better for the future marriage, your race and religion are not the issue for me". Boh. Really open mind. In one of such authors' profiles there was a requirement for a potential partner - "She must be clean and kind". I replied that I correspond to it only 50 %, guess what part.
- lack of practical approach (common sense?) I also have my "why" question to people who write from far away. It is really sweet to read stories about people, even here at CS, who've found each other and are together now despite the distance. But I also believe that you must ask yourself twice before writing to somebody who is thousands miles away, and except distance, there are also mentality, religion and (at least in our country's case) complicated visa issues. BY the way, there is an american forum here, where one guy states that he is ready to travel for the first time only if a woman pays his ticket - to avoid financial risks for a woman that he will not probably like. Of course if it works out, he will refund it later. I find this approach really .. discouraging :) Or maybe this is what is called a common sense?
I believe that long-lasting love is possible when both heart and mind come in accord about a certain person - meaning there should be chemistry (that makes your heart beat faster) and Mr. Livingston's virtues that are the basis for a long lasting feelings - kindness, optimism, courage, loyalty, tolerance, flexibility, beauty, humour, honesty and intelligence. It is like glue (chemistry and mutual attraction) and bricks (these ten virtues to built a relationship). When it comes to love at first sight, I believe it happens that it can be easily confused with a strong physical attraction but without a reasonable / seinsible basis under it, it risks to disappeare as fast and inexplainable as it's appeared. On the other hand, I think that with time and experience each person creates (consciously or subconsciously) the idea of the partner who would suit him most. And there is a chance that meeting a person you immediately feel this correspondence.
Now from theory to practise - happened to me once and lasted 4 years. But fortunately or unfortunately, with life and experience we become more careful and prudent, so the chance of it to happen to me again becomes lower with every year :)
absolutely yes. And I mean it in a good way - men in southern destinations are more hot, initiative and temperamental, both in communication and courting a woman
Here UAE have become a popular touristic destination, and noone complained .. of course you should keep in mind that you are going to a muslim country, so no need to provoke with bright make-up and short dresses.Treat people with respect and they will treat you in the same way. Also here there is a special working program for girls who want to work there in hotels and Duty free shops, some of my friends work there, get a promised salary and normal working conditions. The mentality is different from a western one, for sure, but different doesn't mean good or bad.. Also I agree that before making such agressive statements, it is better to visit the place yourself.
Tulefel, you are a walking encyclopedia ! So to put it roughly, there can be four types: - financially rich + emotionally rich - financially rich + emotionally poor - financially poor + emotionally rich - financially poor + emotionally poor plus intermediate veriants ))just please, guys, don't be too tough about "rich" and "poor" notions, this is just for a scheme.
so as I can see, most posts to this thread referred to categories two and three, meaning rich guys that can be rather mean by nature and poor guys that have a golden heart. We still have two extreme categorie left - poor mean guys and guys with money and generosity of a heart. What about them then?
Or shall we stay at the notion that a guy cannot be clever, handsome, rich (and kind?) at the same time?
