Whooa... I didn't get that deep into the thread. Have you been Married/LTR for 16 YEARS, Rombus? If so, why in holy hell are u looking this deeply into all of these women's profiles (or even at all)?

Hello Browning...Liberty had gotten OP Rombus mixed up with a different poster, whose SN ends in 1975...

I was late to the party myself, and almost made the same 'mistake' as Liberty did

Posting wishes or - in a perfect world my life would be...- statements about what they are looking for. Realistic posts about what their life IS got my attention faster.

Women who go on about how -their kids are their world- mostly that translates into a narcissistic mom that uses her kids lives to make themselves look like a good person. however in real practice they tell they're kids to stay in their room and watch their movie and eat their snacks.

Don't bother bragging about income or independence- everyone looking for a relationship is independent and tired of it because there is a point where its simply called loneliness.

Nice thought, but it only last for NINE minutes:

Suck s you have to resort to dating low status desperate men from online dating sites................stay salty and desperate
Geez, don't be a woman and say you're not having a hard time. Actually I wouldn't even say I have enormous success, I just have fun with it and have someone to do things with once in a while, another person may call this an awful failure bc they haven't found a spouse, or LTR, it's all how ya look at it...This is why we can't have nice things, too many bitterboys.

He didn't come back after the slip up.

It's enlightening, I'm going to see how to tweek my profile to attract a "Chang Thunderwang" next time. At least he might have a sense of humor, and if nothing else.....

An Excellent thought!

Long list of "I wants" are often deal killers, IMHO.

I would even avoid saying things like "Having a boat (or whatever) gets you extra points" as it sends the message, "I may find you interesting, but when that guy with the boat comes along it's See Yah!! The lady may not mean that, but reading between the lines, that what it seems to say. If you like sailing just say "Sailing is in my blood and I do it as often as possible". Guys who get seasick in the bathtub will take the hint.

You are confused. No 'other half'. No 16 year relationships.

Yes, that one bothers me also. I mean it's nice to be with somebody you can laugh with, but that statement can be construed as "I'm unhappy. Fix me".

Nope. Not currently married. Been single for many years. Not currently in any kind of relationship.

I think adultery is one of the cruelest things one human being can do to another. I am 100% legally single and have been for many years. Any woman I date has to be single according to the law, not just in her mind, not separated, not because she wasn't married in the church, etc.

I have no idea why the other person thinks that. Perhaps they have confused me with somebody else.
