My take away was that, if they so quickly jumped into bed with me, how many other men had they done the same with. I started to feel mislead by them as, like I stated earlier, they held themselves out to be something different. The one woman who lives closer to me was much more honest in how she portrayed herself.
Perhaps they felt you misled them into believing there was more of a connection than there was?
Or maybe they figured you were the best they could get since nobody closer than flying distance would sleep with them? But they figured for whatever reason that maybe you were about their level and they honestly felt based on that, that there was something to build on?
Why do YOU think some woman would travel miles for cold and apparently not very good sex? Because she has options?

In other words: I was hurt in the past so now I'm projecting my pain, anguish, & frustration onto the entire dating world yet I'll continue to mingle because dying alone be scary yo.
I read her article a couple of times and I didn't pick up any sort of pain from her, it was most certainly frustration. I'm not sure why people in this thread so quickly discount the author as a young, dumb girl who doesn't know anything. I think her insight was quite poignant. And I'm not someone who tends to read missives from young women.
I suppose we'd have to develop some sort of statistical framework to determine certain variables such as; x(sum total of incompatible people in the world) and y(sum total of compatible people in the world) then subtract those who are not actively dating. Then you could establish the odds of encountering a compatible person. I would imagine the odds are not favorable for most demographics.
Annnnndddd....
Another reason why you keep failing....
Human beings are not equations or logarithms that need to be solved.

What about you? What, did it diminish their worth in your eyes? How many women would want you when you're doing the same thing. It seems to me you want in a partner what you yourself are not able or willing to offer. One-sided and sexist.

Not dumb. But young and inexperienced as regards grown-up things. Young and emo, as is trendy, not dumb.
By 30 she'll be writing different stuff. Mining different dramatic prose to get her blog read. As writers must in a competitive blogosphere.

Ok I'm just gonna stop you there, if YOU jumped right in the sack with her.... how many other women have you done this with? Hypocrite right here.
And who is it to say you weren't her recent since the last guy about 3 yrs ago or something like that?
And why is it ok for you to be a sex fiend but not her?
You say you are old fashioned but in reality you aren't either.
So if you want wholesome women you have have to be a wholesome man yourself.

This is what I've been saying! +1 If you want high-quality people, be a catch yourself. OP is reeling in his "type," people at about his level. Most of us do, somehow or other, even if subconsciously. We get what we put out except in a few either very lucky or very unlucky cases. When it's a repeat thing it's less likely to be luck.
Be someone awesome women want, OP, and you'll get awesome women. If not you're getting these women who feel very connected to you because you're similar.

And here we go:
if you sleep witn me early you are a ho, but I am not gonna refrain if sex is available.
How many women would want you when you're doing the same thing.
I don't know. I guess I'll find out as I'm not someone who hides my past from people. If a woman wants to know when my last sexual encounter was, I'll tell her.

Perhaps. I haven't yet decided how I'm going to continue to approach this whole dating thing from here forward. At this point I'm wondering if a satisfactory long term relationship is even possible. Time will tell. I haven't completely given up yet though. I still have a lot of exploring to do to figure out how best to navigate the dating landscape. My ultimate goal remains the same though; to find a viable long term partner to share life with.
