Okay - I just posted that some men are looking for something that doesn't exist. I mean, I have read so many dodo posts from the most popular dating site - remember the funny one from a few days ago that gave us a lecture so we don't say we don't want a douche bag?
WELL - I decided to go back in there and do a "reverse" search - that is guys who would be looking for my stats. Just to read a few profiles and copy them in here. I just wanted to illustrate that if someone doesn't call you back it DOES NOT mean you are a flop - it just means they are never going to find what they are looking for - or they have to make themselves happy instead of trying to find someone to make them happy.
DISCLAIMER: I swear I didn't make these up!!
45 - heavyset - never been married: "am not really looking for a long term relationship, of course if i happen to meet the right woman i would setle down, but i enjoy being single.I like all kinds of women so everyone that wants a man should give me a try.but be ready to have a good time.keep in mind that i like naked.a woman that like to have sex.I am not a pewrvert or anything but i enjoy sex a lot so a woman has to like it too in order for us to be a good match." (WHO wants to be with a man who just wants all kinds of women to have sex with him, never mind that he is overweight!)
51 - never married: "I am just an average guy in looks but above average in caring. I treat people the way I would like to be treated. I treat a women like I would want any women in my family treated. With respect and thoughtfullness. I can be a little bit of a bad boy at the proper time. But, most of the time you will find me very easy going. No games no drama please! Trust and honesty are a very big part of a relationship. If you don't have that you have nothing. I am not a player by any standard." (I think he has major issues with relationships if he hasn't been married and has THIS rhetoric)
42 - writes "NO COMMENT on relationship, have kids, want kids!!":beach lover world traveler business owner...would love to spoil the right woman...love a woman who is full of life...spontaneous...willing to go to the Keys or St Maarten at the drop of a hat.
(WHO can travel on the drop of a hat?)
46 - divorced, writes: "I am a down to earth person, hard-working, reliable and stable. I am looking for someone who is similar, a professional who takes her job seriously but yet likes to occasionally travel to interesting countries or places. I am intelligent, open minded, good natured and would prefer the same." (to me that means he wants someone who works all the time like he does and just takes a once in a while getaway for sex)
Okay - that is it for now because I am getting that repulsed itch on my finger that wants to close that horrid online dating window!! LOL!! But seriously - this is just from the first page of matches - it is not like I went digging.
I hope I made my point okay - maybe you guys will even find some more.
BUT you see, not every guy wants a relationship or is capable of one. GIRLS - it is them not you. Please don't get sad when they don't call. Just keep on going.

You do have a point. But it just makes me gag right now. I put it on. And then take it off. And then I think of all I have and know I don't want an upset. I enjoy the convent so - there is no hope for me!! LOL!!
My friend and coworker came into my office at the end of the day. She is smiling this crazy smile and pulling something out of her purse. It is a small box.
She opens it and it is an engagement ring. I said what in the world - I thought it was his birthday yesterday?
Her bf since last May proposed to her on his birthday. They are so meant for each other. She wasn't expecting it and it FLOORED her and freaked her out. She said yes but is too scared to wear the ring. I said - does it fit? She says yes - perfectly. So I said, PUT IT ON!! And she did.
That's an awesome story about your friend.
I did the same thing with the OLD that you do. Put profile up, take it down. Put it up, take it down.
About maintaining the status quo, I feel the same way sometimes (even though I love my SO so much). I look at married couples that I know. I do not envy any of their marriages. Even my parents who have been married for 39 years, do not have an easy marriage. Marriage is what it is and there are no perfect partners. It's a commitment and work. I'm scared of both of those :)
