There is something to that...

ya that makes sense, though they tend to be recent transplants for me cause that's just how it goes in your 20's.

and yes, all my friends that aren't from here see the weirdness in the people that are from here! I'm glad I'm not the only one!

Oh believe me, he's had a few choice words over the years, especially in the beginning.

That's pretty common in all age brackets.

Thankfully, they're very rare birds.

true, for some reason I thought young people move all over the place all the time more often than older generations do.

Fellas, doesn't that annoy you somewhat? They complain because out of the dozens of suitors none meets their lofty standards (or rather, they ***** and moan about the last three when they knew they were getting themselves into ) while a lot of guys can't even find a woman to be abusive to him? lol

Or maybe the other answer, that what you see on TV isn't a real reflection on real life, and is full of women who think they don't really need men, yet constantly whine and complain that they can't find that special someone.

Because they're just that stupid? I mean who the heck believes in such fairy tales in this day and age? The ones that claim they don't need one are compensating for that shrill bitterness... because no guy wants to put up with some psycho Jennifer Anniston wannabe.

There's a huge difference between being able to find a decent man (or woman), and the decent one meant for you.

When I was single, I met all kinds of decent men.... just had no interest in them - they weren't the person for me. I can't see projecting not being able to find the person you click with on the population as a whole not being decent.

I think it is the difference between taking personal responsibility and blaming everyone else.

I guess that sounded funny.... The person I found is absolutely decent, AND the one for me.

That's true. Even I've come across decent men.

Decent people is extremely rare. Most men are blithering, rotund, and obtuse bozos.
