MrTurk Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Excuses excuses. Either you are going to man up and take the risk or be alone and whine about being alone. It's your choice. If you want something you never had you have to do something you have never done Ive always had great long-term relationships in the past. I got married about 10 yrs ago, and have been recently divorced for the past few years. I think theres been a dramatic change in the dating scene since the early 2000's(previous time I was single). I am still the great guy that never had dating issues that I was before....its everyone else that has conformed to the changes around me that is causing the clash. All the texting bs, the social media bs, the issue with women my age being more jaded and divorced, many many differences nowadays compared to back when I was in my early 30's. I agree that I could conform to a point and join the crowd. But to me, its not important enough. I would rather remain who I am, and find that woman that matches me and my mindset, than conform and accept the bs that goes along with it. Link to post Share on other sites

Just be proactive and do something about it Link to post Share on other sites
MrTurk Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Its not about conforming. Just be proactive and do something about it Its 100% about conforming. If women start to utilize text messaging more and more as a suitable form of communication during the initial stages of the dating process.....and I refuse to "conform"......then I am left out. Thats just 1 of many examples I can give. Its pure common sense. Link to post Share on other sites
Tayken Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) 24 lol. Is this a compliment? It feels like one but I can't trust the internet anymore. Was there a time you trusted the internet? I hope not for your sake matey If women start to utilize text messaging more and more as a suitable form of communication during the initial stages of the dating process.....and I refuse to "conform"......then I am left out. When you look at a woman's profile, and there isn't proper sentences and talk about how they enjoy reading or listening to some talk radio...I'll say it's fair to say that communication isn't exactly there thing. Any attempt to have a rational or general conversation with them, will fall on deaf ears. I have noticed that from my dating so far, and being married to someone like this who didn't like to read or watch anything that isn't reality TV Edited February 15, 2014 by Tayken 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thats just 1 of many examples I can give. Its pure common sense. I'm definitely happy to say that texting IS NOT my primary form of communication. Yep, texting takes no prisoners in the dating world . 1 Link to post Share on other sites
