I like the bedazzler idea, a white tube top is always good,wink wink, but how about a strapless romper made out of buffalo wings? Food for thought

I like how you think! I have obviously just not been doing what I should be doing to attract the men... shame on me!


You know, there is always the bra that squirts beer idea. Or is that item age restricted to women under 30? I cant remember.

The entire west coast for the most part is considered a dating haven for women.

You keep missing the point, and I'm not going to explain it to you again. In those posts, we're not talking about parts of the country where women vastly predominate Please read carefully for comprehension, rather than just bashing and repeating the same misguided criticism of comments you apparently don't understand.

I've tried OLD on-and-off for years, but I really only put in major effort in the 2011-2012 timeframe.

I had multiple friends (both men and women) critique my profile. I even had a few create profiles for me. I had them compose messages. I used many different pictures (including professional ones). I read a ton about it and even hired a dating coach that I knew was successful online to help me out.

All failed, for the most part.

I found that entire experience more frustrating and less successful than a simple night out at the bar (when I was into that sort of thing).

Maybe if I would have stuck with it, I would have succeeded in the end. Who knows?

I wasn't picky at all back then, but things have changed these days. I'm extremely picky. So I'm sure I would have a limited dating pool online. Combine that with the noted height preferences that most women express in their OLD profiles and I just don't see it working out for me.

Was I thinking? Sorry, there goes my sexual market value! I'm trying out your beer-tation bra idea, but they just keep getting suirted in the eyes before the barrage of pickups and offers roll in! Gonna have to raise my skirt and raise my points

Best just to take your clothes off to make yourself "approachable". It's the only way they'll know for sure that you're interested. Otherwise, they may think you're only being friendly, and will stay in their corner.

To be fair, there are a lot of men out there that get crapped on for assuming interest when a woman is just being friendly.

Right, that's why I said that. I thought the general context here was singles events and bars/clubs, where any gesture would be pretty clearly interpreted as more than friendly. Context is everything, but maybe that wasn't so clear.

Do women go to singles events, knowing what the meaning of a singles event is, act friendly to a guy, and then "crap on him"?

I don't understand why this site attracts so many men who have such a high ratio of encounters and experiences with mean and crazy women...I never witness or make these things happen, If I was nice to someone in a bar having a conversation with them and they mistakenly thought I was acting interested in something else, I would politely decline, or redirect the conversation so they weren't embarrassed.

There is this whole population of mean crazy women out there that I just cannot relate too. I don't understand what their motivation would be?

Can you give an example of what you interpret as being "crapped on"?

"By reaching out to his crotch area." A good way for me to slap her hand away not every man likes that (me being one) especially if I don't know you. Do many women do this because iit's not a turn on.

A lot of women are mean nowadays and men don't approach much. Gee I wonder why? Probably because a lot of women are nasty towards them.
