It varies for everyone, depending on the time spent together, and the personality in question. Sometimes, it won't grow.

My ex friend was friends with a guy who liked her for around 2 years. He always asked her out, but she stated she wasn't attracted to him, and couldn't imagine dating him. Finally, they went out, as a b-day gift to him, and her attraction for him grew on that date, and they became official. Now, she thinks he's sexy, lost her virginity to him, plans to marry him, later of course.

But it doesn't always work that way. I met a guy once-set up. I didn't find him physically attractive, and he had a doormat personality. So, I wasn't interested, and wasn't going to be. It didn't take long to write that off.

Lol I have gone out twice already with the guy, I am trying to like. I just ain't feeling it.

Of course an ex I grew up with passed me this morning. He turned around to see if I stopped in for coffee and texted me when he realized I did not. He texted me all day today. I have loved him since I was about 5. After 30 years, I no longer have any expectations in that area.

Do you ever take a happy pill or do you just live to insult me?

As a matter of fact, I am probably the most reliable person you will ever meet and my lawyer has said for years that I am way to honest. I am known for being direct, honest and not one to bite my tongue.

I'm just going by your posts. You're a bit all over the place, but the theme is you think you deserve things.

I disagree. I don't think she has an entitlement complex. I think her requirements for attraction seems to disqualify 90+% of the male population. It is either that or all the men in her area suck, could be a bit of both.

I wouldn't think that a male that:
  • Has a full time job that is decent
  • Not short
  • 30-40
  • Caucasian
  • Height weight proportionate
  • Not socially awkward
  • Reasonably attractive
Would be in such short supply. Where I live there are guys like that everywhere. She said that she saw 10 men she deemed attractive in one sitting at a restaurant so it doesn't sound like her attraction requirements are out of wack.



Her dating requirements used to be unrealistic but it sounds like she has listened to feedback and has made compromises. At the same time I have trouble believing that wherever she lives has so many losers per capita.

I think part of the issue is that I attract the losers. I have gotten good at picking them out and sending them away though. I need to learn how to attract the good ones that I am attracted to.

I think you said something about excessive tattoos and piercings making someone somehow a "loser"... of which I know a number of people who have both... who are utterly fantastic human beings.

Maybe you are just not fit to define "losers" to even begin with. Maybe that's something you assigned to yourself in your own throes of narcissism and pretentiousness. Maybe you should suffer and reap whatever you sow with your narrow mindedness.

I was going to post based on a point way back on page 2, but other posters seemed to have beaten the topic to death. In short: don't go out on date #3 with a guy you're not feelin it for. 2 dates and some phone calls is enough to decide thumbs up or down.

I too dated about 30 (women) from my online ad, but I spread mine out over 3 years, because I did find something to like, and a pause my online binge for 3-6 months with some of them. But to date 30 (guys) in 4.5 months, sounds like you don't bother to pre-screen and disqualify. The fact that you listed the notables as the parolee and a druggie... I'm like 'tsk, tsk'.

Quick, do something 'edgy'. I can't even play that game.
