and B.S. there's way more good men then women, that's actually laughable. The reason guys don't want to get married has nothing to do with women (but thanks for letting everyone know they never take responsibility for anything, once again ), it has to do with them wanting to play around with as many women as they can and just not being as respectable and decent in general. Most of them are very full of themselves too.

Technically, in a biological manner, that's how it works. Hopefully, that's not a newsflash.


As for the aforementioned part about women in their 20's growing up, I'm not so sure about that one.

This 20-something gal from the church I used to go to had a Match.com profile up that pretty much went like this:

"I like to dance. I like my grandma's rice and gravy and I want a guy who is always happy, even when he's not happy."

I'm thinking...WTF? Is she into pharmaceutical sales and drugging up her ex-boyfriends or just a genuine idiot? As hot as she is, I see why she's single.

ok, i have to step in on this. here is the bottom line. waaaay too many women complain about men being nothing but cheating lying pieces of crap.

im 25 years old, very shy and quiet, and often awkward around women im attracted to. and i was a virgin until i got married last year, at 24 years old. HOWEVER, i unfortunately married a woman who acts more like a horny teenager....she seeks out sex with as many guys as possible....how she managed to go sex-less until we were married i dont know. but im in the middle of a VERY bitter divorce thanks to her cheating ways.

oh yeah, might i also add that she's cost me 2 different jobs via sabotage?

iv also had a past girlfriend give me a computer so we could talk online when we didnt see each other, and she promised me that it was mine to keep, even if we broke up. well, she left me ON THANKSGIVING ( this was 2 years ago ) and the next day showed up with her biker dad and took the computer back by force.

why did she leave me? it wasnt anything bad. SHE left me because my life dream ( being a wolf biologist ) didnt work for her plans.

SO STOP SAYING GUYS ARE ALWAYS AT FAULT, THERE ARE SOME INNOCENT ONES OUT THERE ( LIKE ME )

as far as my marriage, i wont say i did nothing wrong. i know where my faults were. i yelled a little too much sometimes, when she refused to do basic things like cleaning. when our bank account and paypal accounts got hacked and our money stolen, i flipped out and threw my wallet at the wall. yeah, i did some bad things. but she was the true problem. the accounts got hacked because she INSISTED on wasting money on what turned out to be a phony website offering Sims 3 extras. i could keep going for ages about the stuff she did. but ill spare yall.

Has that ever happened to you, do you think that really happens a lot or do you think the media and the internet are blowing this issue out of proportions?
I pretty much only know good men (barring this forum of course). If we could get the demographics and region of the bitter wackadoodles in this thread and forum, it would be a place to start for women, a place where women at least know to avoid. With that said, going home with a man you don't know is just as dumb as some numb-nut wanting to play video games like a 10 yr old.

It cuts both ways you know. I think that we need the demo and region of the bitter, lying, mean, controlling, cheating, crazy, demanding, flaky, women so that honest, upstanding men can avoid them. That would be an awesome start for great guys. Some women in this day and age feel as though going home with a man they just met is a way that shows how far women have come; that they're in control of their bodies and desires. Do you see how convoluted this has become? No wonder some men can't figure out women.

In my experience, women in general find guys with mul;tiple partners, very attractive. Guys who are unavialable also get a ton of attention from other women. Guys who are single and havent been laid in awhile are completely dismissed for the most part.
True. It's a f*cked way of thinking but I've seen it. The man who hasn't been laid in awhile could be a perfectly good man, but some women will think that there is something wrong with him.

Leaving aside the lack of logic in your first statement, the last statement is interesting.

I don't know why we women buy into the notion that we should get married, and if not married then we failed in some way. Marriage is almost always a superbad deal for women and a rosy deal for men.

This is true, all of it. And it's really sad to see.

Good men patronize bars, they just don't live there.
