I mean I have no ties and a good job - I may pack up one day and move to another country. Crapshoot - that made me lol! Probably better for you to look for real life dating outlets and not use the apps. People tend to be a little nicer to those that are a part of their regular life. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen videos of them and I was born in the wrong time. You are incredibly naive. Also, swooning over some silly, nonexistent “beautiful and brilliant” men of yore while openly despising today’s men is really unattractive. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They're great As others have pointed out several women have given constructive criticism in this thread. I think interpreting anything that doesn't align with your views as an attack by men somewhat speaks for itself as well. There's large online communities of men bemoaning how all women are b****es because they constantly get turned down, and talking about how women were noble and chaste back in the day. Not very attractive I'm sure you'd agree, so why is it different if the genders are reversed? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Sony12 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 (edited) A lot of men on apps get ignored because a lot of women find guys their sons ages to be far more interesting. So let's not act like this is all about men not being good dating partners these days. Edited August 13 by Sony12 Link to post Share on other sites

That is not born out of thin air. That is something we build over time with someone. You expect a man you've been on 2 dates with to give you a sense of love and soul connection? Maybe you have unrealistic expectations? Link to post Share on other sites

Listen, I have had two dates with two COMPLETELY different types of men within the last 14 days. The first one was more average and I thought I would go for personality. Nice enough and paid for my Italian meal HOWEVER 2 days after the date I woke up at 8 am to a message '' do you not feel the same anymore as you haven't messaged me good morning'' LOOOOL WHAT!? reassuring an insecure man after 1 date is something I wouldn't do if someone paid me 10 k! the next guy, stereotype good looking - texting for weeks, took me out for some wines, drove over to my area, positive date and within an hour of getting home he text me saying ''send me a picture of your .....'' are you telling me my expectations are too high or are we living in a dating generation of settle or meet complete fruit loops? you answer that truthfully, not even to me! answer to your self and I bet you don't type your thoughts.

You want to compare stories? I was 3 years online - had over 200 coffee dates, including being kidnapped and driven across town against my will. Yes yes yes, you've met some clowns! so what? It took you a few bad dates to disown an entire gender and country! You say you're strong...show it! You talk the talk so now walk the walk of a strong woman. My 201 date turned out to be the one I was waiting for. I was ready to go to 300 dates to find him! Because nothing brings me down! Certainly not a bunch of bad dates, not even a kidnapping. So, what do you want again? A gentleman? then go get it and don't stop at nothing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
happyhorizons Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 5 hours ago, sammy24xx said: belittling comments, showing off, acting insecure and asking me if I feel the same if I haven't text good morning by 09.00 am, making sexual comments after meeting me once when I give no impression of that - making me feel cheap is what they're trying to do because they're insecure. It's a sad dating world 2024 5 hours ago, sammy24xx said: I absolute agree - it makes my blood boil when they think after paying for my meal they can even attempt to try - it's not attractive and gives me an ick! I just block them now. I feel sad for them. These are blokes in their 30's who are still acting like we all did at 18. I am too strong for it and I will not tolerate. I do sometimes think i need to soften perhaps and not feel all men are the same, but gosh my brain is convinced of it. That really is total rubbish. You deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, and nothing less. I’m not sure why that is such a noble concept in today’s world. Maybe all the texting has made people forget decorum and etiquette, which is very sad. OP, please don’t settle for anything less and keep searching until you find what you deserve.😊😊😊 1 Link to post Share on other sites
