Men...who is single?

[Gracie]

Oh wait. Yes I was. Need more coffee.

SHE was not giving me a list. I gave the list. Just wanted to make that clear.

 

[Gracie]

OKCupid...don't you have to pay for that? I know PlentyOfFish is free. And they have forums too but I hated them cuz the staff are buttholes.

Her pc is broke. Taking care of mom put fixing it on the back burner for now. She goes to the library often to enjoy the quiet, browse the bookshelves, sip her coffee. That's when we email back and forth quickly. Most of the time, we yak on the phone.

I thought she was doing well financially?

She is not rich and she is not poor. They are doing ok. She is not looking for Christian Grey or a Warren Buffet. She just doesnt want a bum.

Why couldn't she reply to Woman's basic instinct and club a prospective mate over the head with a club and drag him back to her cave by the hair? Just sayin'.

Ha! That's what I would do but she ain't me, lol. Tolja we are not alike at all.

When I sat down to list all my terific qualities, I got as far as "punctual" and "bathes regularly" and then ran out of material.

I guess it won't be me.

your not a good liar then, Ive had the same problem with dating sites. sometimes the list of expectations is daunting

Some people view a relationship as the first step in marriage. Lol. This seems especially true for a lot of women. Instead of just relaxing and enjoying the company, they want to make demands. Some men too. I think, more important than a list of expectations, is finding a person that you feel a connection with and have things in common with. Instead of starting off with a list of demands, people need to relax and learn about those things as the relationship naturally progresses. That's just my opinion though. I think people who come up with a list of what they expect from the other person should probably look at themselves and ask themselves what they are willing to contribute in the relationship. It just seems awfully shallow to me.

She didn't ask for these things. I DID. I do that for my friends, ya know.

I'm not talking about your friend. I'm talking about women on internet dating sites who have a list of expectations of what they want and don't really say anything about themselves. I thought that was obvious since we were discussing dating websites. No need to get all defensive.

I was not talking to you. So who is getting defensive now?

You quoted MY post. Lol.

I wasn't referring to your friend. If you have ever been on an online dating site, you would see what I mean. There are women (and some men) who have long lists of expectations. That tends to scare away the men, IMO.

 

[Gracie]

And where could somebody see her photo? Maybe she doesn't deserve posting some sort of men's one.

When he gives one. Maybe he doesn't deserve her for not posting a mans pic. Is that what you are saying? LOL

What about "house trained " and "can fetch the newspaper without slobbering"?

??? Having some trouble making sense of your last sentence. Typo maybe? I agree though, Gracie should ask for her permission to show a photo if she is serious about doing this. A lot of men are going to want to see what she looks like for themselves. Men are very visual creatures.

Doesn't matter. I am still learning english. I meant that maybe the game is not worth the candle and doesn't deserve so much attention.

What is your mother tongue? Muttersprache?

I think dating sites are a perfectly sensible idea, as all they really do is put person A in contact with person B and the rest is really up to them.

Winner winner chicken dinner! I was just askin'. If the person interested in meeting someone WAS interested and I am familiar with their posting style on whether he is a hater or thinks women should fetch and carry and wear a hijab or doesn't like animals or lives in a basement with mommy, or thinks a particula ethnic race is beneath them, yadda yadda....then no. I would not send her the link to read when able, nor will I tell her about the results of this thread. Why would I? She's a friend. She wants someone to love and be with forever and he feel the same way. Once they are introduced by a mutual acquaintance (me), the rest is on them.

Don't make too much of this. I was bored. I entertained myself. If I struck gold, great. If not, no sweat.

I think you put out a great thread. This is fun!

If this means she lays me on my back and rides like a pony, I can deal with this.

Sigh. She will fix her pc when she feels like it. She enjoys what little time she has for alone time when Mom is not needing her. A pc is not her top priority. I told her to meet someone at the library. Shrug.

Successful men don't go to the library, men with urine soaked pants hang out at the library. Of course she could drop off a computer and pick it up, that doesn't require any time. If she isn't motivated that's fine but why burden yourself with it?

 

[Michelle420]

She can use the usmb phone app

Working on it and almost there, I'm proud to announce.

I did think of one more thing, though. I still have just as much hair as I did when I was twenty.

The figure would probably be closer to 50% if not for the way the luxuriance of the growth in my ears, nose and eyebrows makes up for the loss on top.

Oops, I forgot to include my back.

Make that "I now have half again as much hair as I did when I was twenty".

 

[Gracie]

lol. At least you pass the test for humor, dogmaphobe.

Wow. You must live in a dumpy area. Libraries I have been in are beautiful, clean, and lots of people are there from all walks of life...mostly those that just love books, the smell of books, the ambience of a house that houses books.

Maybe you should read the thread again? She can burn her pc for all I care. I have not nitpicked her why she hasn't had it repaired yet. Maybe she is happy using the library's pc. Maybe she is in no hurry. Maybe she just doesn't feel like it right now.
And again, I reiterate..I WAS BORED. THOUGHT I WOULD ASK. It was for fun like going to a casino and dropping in a few bucks FOR FUN but if you hit the jackpot, even better.

Good women are hard to find. So are good men. And there are MORE single women than single men, so lots of competition. With her looks, they are shy I guess. Again, who knows?

It was a lark. Just something fun to do. Chances were nil, but still fun to talk about. I plan to call her today for our jabberfest we usually do before my tv shows come on. I will tell her to stop looking cuz when one does that, one tends to find the one they seek. AND, he might be already there under her nose...the arrow just hasn't smacked her OR him yet.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Gracie, the guys need more info.

Her education. Her lifstyle. Children if any and how many. Has she been divorced; if so, why. Does she talk non-stop. Does she respect boundaries in marriage. Does she share. How much does her mom and or sisters dominate her time and life. And so forth.

Since I have the best wife in the world, period, I am being the vetter for the guys

My back is now officially classified as a hair forest.
