One would think the same logic would extend to on-line dating. My list is not at all ridiculous. It is the appropriately age-progressed woman that I would have liked and gone out with in college or grad school, minus children, who is very similar in education, religion, level of attractiveness, and has, or can tolerate, the same irreverence toward life and likes travel and cultural pursuits.

However, I'm not looking and have given up. Now, instead of trying on-line dating, I can browse Facebook and look up girls I knew in HS and college. Like I said, I've given up.
Humbug!

No. It's a choice on how to allocate time and resources.

Lol, yes indeed my friend; I agree 100% with you assessment above of what I need in a woman...nice and kind affectionate women, IMO, are the very best and are the most loving...not to mention the only ones who can truly melt my heart (meant of course in a good way, haha)

I've already lost 5 years of my life, sanity and health to being a relationship that was too much compromise and settling and not realizing it until it was far too late into the relationship to break it off easily.

I'd rather be alone, with more money and slightly miserable then make that mistake again, sorry ladies.

What is interesting is what we think are "perfect" qualities when we are younger, and then later on realize we were really just looking at the shell. It takes so long to really get to know someone and make sure that person would be a good match. It is nuch, much more than " blonde hair, and good in bed" or "tall, makes over 100K".

It is those small moments, that make up a life...is this person easy to get along with? Will he get up and do a load of laundry? There are so many small things...don't get lost in the details, and miss the big picture of spending a life with someone.
