I'm not passing judgment because let's face it....everyone has to make their own decisions on being happy.

A perfect example would be the number of attractive young gals looking to line up to marry guys like Charlie Sheen, Jesse James or in the interest of equal time...gals like Madonna, B Spears etc.

So the GENERAL facts are:
1) Young people make stupid choices and get wiser with age.
2) Women have more relationship power at younger ages...then men do after a certain age due to mortality and other factors.
3) People that allow themselves to become jaded by their own choices may sabotage their chances at future happiness.

I suppose it's true in some cases - like those who are deeply offended by our idle chat.

Great insight! I'm a woman and find that this is exactly the case with my female friends in their early 30's who have been in one unsuccessful relationship after another.

I get tired of hearing guys call themselves "nice guys" and complain about how women won't have them. Maybe, just maybe, you are not quite as nice as you claim to be. For instance, if you put women down like many of the posters on CD, you are not nice. IMO guys that constantly lament their lack of success with women usually have issues besides being a "nice guy".

I so agree with hurricane DC's comment. Maybe you should try doing the opposite of what you would normally do or the people you normally attract and you just might stumble onto someone looking for the same thing that you are looking for.

I think you could speed up the process a bit if you were to go to places where nice guys are wanted...one such place is larger church Singles Ministries that have regular Group Meetings open to the public. Make a few phone calls and see where they are. Youll be in demand there and youll get a gal with high morals and faithfulness to boot. You sould like a classy guy and i wish you well.
Thank you!

And that's where the 'let's define "nice guy"" thread comes into play. I really do consider myself a nice guy, as in a courteous and well-mannered person who respects others. But, I've been doing some soul-searching and recognize that I'm also rather negative.

Then they get their hearts broken by these a-holes and scare women from ever trusting or believing that nice guys actually exist, so there's the dilemma that all nice guys have. It's hard to find love when you're a nice so most of us turn into a-holes looking for nothing but one night stands and nothing serious because we too become afraid of being heart broken and feel like we'll be stuck alone missing what we all had at one time. I tried the one night stands for a while now. I'm tired of it and want to have someone there and I'm stuck in this nice guy vortex of "DOOM", and it sucks (no pun intended). So for those of you who do have someone to love and hold I want you hold them tight take in the sweet smell of their hair, the soft touch of their skin on yours that sweet kiss that feels like it could never end and the feeling of your heart beating with theirs. These are all things we take for granted when we have that love and you really don't miss it until you don't have it. Love is hard to find so don't lose it when you have it.
Bet this sounds familiar...

Reply: Oh...not to worry about that ! Christian gals are known for being great and faithful lovers in a marriage. Sex is great when its surrendered to Gods standards unlike the self-centered harmful type that our culture shamelessly promotes complete with dangerous STD's and being used then dumped .

Fine. Can't we all stick to our own?! You don't see ME preaching to you, unless provoked.
