I'm beginning to think that maybe I'm too ugly to attract anyone, because of the chronic, constant rejection and stupid, childish game-playing I find myself having to endure. You know, the old 'let's just be friends' bull**** that women spew out because they haven't got the guts to call a spade a spade and say, "I'm not interested because you're ugly. Or too short. Or fat." Or whatever. Women who do this think they're being nice, and sparing the guy's feelings, but really, they do it to maintain the perception that they have higher value than 99% of the men they encounter and that they really are 'all that and a bag of chips too'. Or to convince themselves that they really are nice people.
It doesn't help that the rare, few women who do show any interest in me are single mothers, or unemployed, mentally ill, or drug and alcohol addicted women just looking for a meal ticket. The sad part is, women are very good at hiding who they really are - sometimes it's not until the second or third date that the mask drops and I learn they've got a lot of baggage I'd rather not deal with.
It's said that there is a lid for every pot. This can't be true, with so many single people out there unable to find partners, me included. I think it's safe to say I'm just one of those guys who isn't meant to be loved or wanted by anyone.
I lost hope in finding a relationship oriented guy my age. Most of them are only looking for a quick hook up.
So why not consider dating men who are a little bit older? But don't wait to do it until you're the same age as they are because then you'll find that they're just looking for a quick hookup also.
In a previously (and commonly) understood way, yes... but in the practice of experiencing what the love of, and the relationship to, and the intimacy with this ongoing moment means then, no, not at all.
For now, yes. I have a child, a home, and finances to take care of. I am used to taking care of myself, have great family and friends. I dont want any more kids, so what do I need a man for? Not going to settle. If I happen to meet a decent man, then I will go from there. Men have caused me too much pain and stress in the past. Don't want to go through that again.
The only hope this thread gives me is that the guy I like IRL is still single since it is so hard to find someone based on the posts here and with my own experience. I'm hoping he hasn't found someone yet.

Hang in there.
There are still nice guys out there.
