Trust me u REALLY feel it, i do... i mean i grew up in holland, did my uni in spain then lived in sydney for 3 years, everywhere i went i met guys everywhere, and u always end up dating one that REALLY is interested in you.... so u date for a month or 2 and then he asks u to move in with him...
Here in atlanta, sure i went on dates, but the men are seriously SO uninterested, like i havent met a single guy that likes specifically ME.... U know that goes after me... he takes me on one or 2 dates then fades away... so weird... and weird that is specifically to HERE...
I mean im not a woman who has nothing to say for herself, im educated, traveled the world, speak languages and im not horrible looking at all, its just weird to have such problems in simply finding a guy who is really interested? LOL
so yeah 22 women to 1 man explains it.... I mean it really seams like all woman are SO desperate for a man that each man has soooo many women after him, he doesnt care to go after ONE... he just simply finds defects on each woman... cuz he is so high on demand... LOL
Well, I'm sorry I think I may beone of those men you are talking about. I meet females date for a while, then meet other females date for a while. I don't understand why that's an issue, if a woman likes me a lot ill continue to hang out with her. My girl friend likes me a lot so that why I'm with her. A woman should always show a man interst if she wants him to hang around. That's what works for me. I like women who like me A LOT. After that I'm cool with being her boyfriend or whatever.
How many of those 2 million are WHITE? How many have traveled and are open minded and educated? How many are NOT country or redneck?
I'm not complaining they dont take me seriously im complaining that from the few whites that there are, they are just bad quality, its not people i would want to be with anyway..
And yeah ive been on plenty of DATES, but it doesnt go anywhere cuz a world citizen who has has lived in 4 different countries, speaks 4 languages and holds 3 passports, wants NOTHING to do with a redneck who has never left georgia...
lol what?? Ok so you are a white woman? But you say things that black women say? Everything in this post sounds like something black women say....so maybe you are white, but you sure don't sound like it by your boasting & bragging. Its way more attractive to keep all your travels & degrees to yourself, that sort of thing should be reserved to pillow talk, not out in the open. Cmon now.....

I totally missed this post. You really need to humble yourself.

I never said looks were the only thing that matters in a relationship. All things matter in a relationship, but if you are like most women you want the guy to approach and guys won't approach unless we are attracted to you. If the hypothetical guy never never approaches how are you going to be able to reject him?
When did I mention guys approaching me? Loads of guys can come up to, but that doesn't even mean much??? I've had guys come up to me in Sydney, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Bangkok, Kansas city, Rio, Campo Grande... LOL so what?
Having travel experience is pretty far down on the list for most guys when we look for women, it's a perk, but we can always take you on vacation so it is far from a requirement. We want someone that is attractive enough, that we connect with, that is supportive, that would be a good mom, that isn't a ho, etc. We have standards, but they aren't that high.
I didn't say it's a requirement, but I'm not just talking going on several vacations, I'm talking about living for long periods of time in different cultures, learning languages, and mingling with the culture. It is far down on the list for you maybe, but for men who have also traveled they really appreciate it. And when you compare one who has lived in different countries to one who has lift in her hometown her whole life, and thinks its a big deal to go to another city, I think there is more to it then just that they did or didn't step on other nation's soils... It has to do with the mentality, their way of thinking, how they view life, their interests, it completely changes who they are... People who traveled are so much more interesting and for sure can hold way more interesting conversation... I've heard men that traveled comment on country redneck women that are so limited... Sooo I think you can say it's not important to YOU! Cuz you yourself are not into it, but don't limit yourself and think other people don't. It's about common interests. I find it a HUGE turn off if a guy never even left the us.. That shows he has no sense of curiousity, cuz today its so easy to go...
Maybe you would, I don't know, but the CEO will get more women than the teacher. I would much rather live in a world that doesn't judge my value by my status, but that is unrealistic. Think of all the things men have done in the course of history to compete and gain the attention of women, numerous examples exist.
Get more women as in get more women in bed? Or wanting to have a relationship with him? In the end, after time though it will matter what his personality is like... And it seams like its all about the numbers came, he may get more women that only care about position and money, but does this necesarily mean he will have a good relationship? Construction workers and the cashiers in Publix might have great relationships..
How many CEO's do you know with ugly wives? I only know 3 and though they aren't rich their wives aren't ugly either. I think salary wise the sweet spot is about $300K, but it depends on the city.
I know plenty of guys with high positions really doing well that have average looking wives (not an obese woman) but average, simple looking women, and they have 2 or 3 kids, and are happy, thats what matters.. Some may even be single...
We all know that women think they deserve Brad Pitt or some other ridiculously rich actor, but if those guys wanted the women in question they would be pursuing her. There are also ugly short actors that don't have any shortage of women chasing them, women that would never speak to them if they weren't rich.
We don't have to wait until we are old, we just have to wait until the demographics start to shift. More males are born than females, but that is because males also have a much higher mortality rate. After about 30 or so the tide starts to shift in the guy's favor. You have women that messed around with losers her entire 20's that want to get with the guy that ticks all the boxes when she is older, but his value has increased while hers hasn't. To top it off that 30 yr old woman has less time to find a mate before she is no longer fertile, but the guy still has the same amount of time left. The dating period you will have from about 16-25 is what our is like from 25/30 until we die.
I find this view very old fashioned sorry, I mean so many women these get married at 32, 33, 34... A gorgeous friend of mine, blond pretty, she got married at 36... I see 20 year olds who look worse than some 30 yr olds... Its how you take care of yourself, do you work out, eat healthy, limit drinking etc.. I met this one 29 yr old beauty from Germany, she was 6 foot tall, gorgeous blue eyes, slender body, she look way better than a lot of 20-25 yr olds and she actually scored men that were younger than her! Age is just a number... This is USA, not Asia where there is an age for everything. Here and in Europe its when whoever feels right.
And as for being fertile, the same goes for men, sperm count decreases with age... Like if a 30 yr old woman goes with a 60 yr old, it will take longer for her to get pregnant than if she was with another 30 yr old... Fertile decreases in men too... Plus older guys need VIAGRA to get it up, LOL, so yeah after trying a lot with viagra he might be able to make a 30 yr old pregnant... LOL The older a guy gets, the more useless his dik gets...
So it goes both ways...
And these days there are women have babies in their 40's! So a 30 yr old still has 10 yrs or more to have babies... I know a 41 yr old that had twin! Look at all the celebrities... SO many have babies way older today.. OPEN your eyes...
And of course age is more important to a woman for having a baby but thats also cuz she bares a baby for 9 months in her body, which takes up all her nutrients, breast feeding, and all that, so she really has to invest in pregnancy, while the man just ejaculates and his job is done... So yeah she has less time but that's to do with physical differences..
I personally think looking for someone with 'travel experience' is so trivial. Why would that be one of the first qualities you see in a potential man??? I've been to the biggest cities in China, Japan, and Canada, but I don't see myself as being better or more worldly then most other people. Not everyone has the money to travel around the world before the age of 25. In fact, a very small amount actually are international travelers.
It just seems very strange to me. I can understand not wanting to date conservative, southern men, but to limit it to those who have traveled places? You should start by looking at who they are, their character and their personality and where you see yourself with them in the many years to come. Not where they've been in the past.
It tells me alot about the type of person you are. You seem to think you're better then other people because you happen to be lucky enough to travel around the world before most people do and be worldly. If I'm dating a women, telling her I've traveled around the world a few times isn't the first thing I would tell her. I don't expect anyone to be impressed with where I've traveled. I don't expect her to first tell me that either. I'd think she was pretentious.
Maybe that's why you can't find any man, but what would I know....I'm a 20 year old college black male. I think I'm blessed and extremely lucky and grateful with what I've experience in my life thus far.
In case anyone is having a moment and have forgotten what the actual topic is, it can be found in the first post.
Discussing other posters, going off topic, bickering/insulting - sorry, it's stopping now. There are plenty of vacation tickets left to pass out otherwise. Stay on topic, please.
yep and if you look at the demographics of almost any city, it's almost always roughly 50/50, which is amazing when you think about it.
Now if someone knows a place where there's actually a 22 to 1 ratio of women to men (or even close), please let me know so I can pack my bags!
Same here.
