And in todays world balance between warrior and priest spirit is best.
Well, considering I've never been approached by anyone that seemed like a good man, I'd say the stereotype is spot on with me. I've been told several times that I look like I'd be 'good in bed' but not really the relationship type. My ex told me he was embarrassed to be seen with me in public and a guy I had a HUUGE crush on told me he could never date a woman he'd be embarrassed to introduce to his parents (i.e. me).

I don't dress scantily nor do I give off the vibe that I'm some kind of 'bad girl', but my appearance suggests otherwise. It's not a big deal, I found a socially awkward nerdy guy who seems to like me (tattoos and all) so that's really nothing of my concern for right now

That the thing thats wierd, supposly high selfesteem and high standard males and females are so worried about normal or definitions it really makes you wonder if its them who are not limited or insecure.

You just haven't found the right guys yet. I love all kinds of different ladies.

Never been abusive to a woman in my life hon. But don't take my word for it. Trust the FBI and BATF.

I just knew I didn't want some d-bag 'bad boy' and have never been into that kind of culture. It's been very difficult to find a guy who didn't have a history of cheating/abuse or 5 baby mommas who was also interested in me. Contrary to popular belief, guys who are socially awkward and have no luck dating still don't want to be with a woman who has surgery scars, is taller than them or has tattoos. Men are VERY visual and I don't meet most men's criteria for what is attractive. It is what it is.

Simple. Guys who have a lot going for them have standards because they can choose from many types of women. And vice versa.

This thread is clearly started by a guy with no standards because he has a hard time getting ANYONE to want to date him lol.

That's true, but even people who don't have standards, still really do have standards they just don't enforce them then when they finally find someone that will have them its not likely that person will meet their standards but they wont leave and it may just be a sad unhappy relationship.
