Also, I have found that limited life experience , regardless of education or social status (money)
can raise an uncomfortable, " know it all attitude".
Exactly...people who have never been anywhere except the 4 corners of their state, do nothing but hangout at bars, work the same 9-5 or hospitality job day in, day out...are usually the ones who I bump heads with.
I have an issue running into people who are sub-par of what I prefer. They either dont have a car, job, own place, etc...Which, it doesn't make the person bad. It doesn't make them any less of a person. But unfortunently, those who are putting themselves in the 'dating field' tend to be the main ones who leech off of others, or the relationship is 1-sided. There's no give and take.
My main annoyance is anyone who doesn't have the above, yet expects me to share mine with them when they aint even giving up any ass. Thats a problem. Because I dont let anyone float on top of me if they not giving it up...
I think you are wrong. The problem is knowing where to look for those guys. Hint you will not find them at places you work or bars. Guys that reach 35+ and that are still single tend to be wary of women. They either are not good in that social aspect of life or no longer are seeking them out as heavily.
You can't generalize everyone as you will always find many exceptions. Everyone I know who is 'still' single and 35, including myself, are not wary of women. We may be wary of the games that some women play, causing us to cast a more cautious eye over possible dates, but it is not like (most of us) are jaded. If anything, we are more in tune with finding a good woman to (potentially) spend the rest of our lives with.
As guys age, we also realize that having a solid, platonic, relationship with a female is a key to a rewarding life and that sleeping with a friend is one of the quickest ways to turn that friendship sour.

Yeah, I agree. I would go nuts if I dated someone just like me, and I have. At first it was awesome, but we quickly got on each other's nerves.
Some of the best relationships that I have had were with women who were the opposite of me. Ironically, most of those ended because the other claimed that our personalities were too different. One in particular actually wants to date someone who is just like her. I feel sorry for her.

Cosign completely.
I could have written this, except that I am a woman
In my opinion the greatest outstanding riddle concerns the glaring mismatch between the thought enlightening strategy of a true sponge and their expectation on others ability in perception & mode for action.
Charm, promise of quality in unity, all the attributes of common sense. Yet this common sense
is never assumed on the suspecting target.
I like to mention this to a sponge..... You know something, there once was a person who
sponged off me to know return and finally I said...You must think I'm worried about getting used .
Well do you know in following conclusion
Mr Present sponge, what I said to past Sponge ?
" If no one can use you, what good are you"
The realization of putting into perspective, however gracious holds power in the actual knowledge of exactly whats going on. It works good and common sense finally finds its way to your doorstep relative to the thoughts of the un-grateful bum. (I'm not referring to a little kindness
but a boned sponge.) ( ha ha , I like that)
In a nano second we can get a little idea of the complexity or quality of potential time spent with others we meet. Its a real treat when we get to exercise a little good thought.
It will come. Be close to the real self and enjoy looking forward to hopeful encounters !
