The BS and yarns that I've heard men spin in an attempt to bed a woman is enough to make a decent man give up. As long as women are immediately attracted to the good looking liars, I suppose they will continue to give them what they want to hear.

The old saying "If its too good to be true, it probably is" applies more to meeting men than any other thing.

Unfortunately we never hear about the real problem. Men who don't spread the BS who are instantly judged to have something to hide.

I guess that it is a woman's nature to assume that if he promises a lot, there must be something behind it but if he promises little, he's the same only worth a lot less than the first guy.

Rugged's pick-up lines......Do you want to go fishing?.......Do you want to come to the range with us?...........Do you want to go for a ride in a piece of Detroit history?......Would you like to watch us jam sometime?...... How about having a garage party/cook out while we work on our cars? As you can see they seem to lust for me!!!LMAO.......... I am who I am, take it or leave it. I do know how to be romantic for the right one though.

I agree with you. I think it is hard to be sincere when it is so common place to try and make yourself out to be something you're not. And I highlighted part of what you wrote, because through experience I know it to be true. But, I think that in the end, most people do want what's real. People fantasize, and they escape in their little imaginary worlds, but in life its what's tangible that matters. A lie is all fluff. It sounds nice, and sometimes we want to believe it - but it doesn't do anything for us.

Just keep being who you are, and trying to work on yourself. I do believe in karma, and I think in the end you get what you put out into the world.

Its just dating shape with protein powder. We have been doing it for years. Just look at the clothing receipt of a single that on a map looks like a connect the dots on Park Avenue, but Walmart frump is in the future. The first anniversary of marriage should be called the festival of atrophy. Gobble it up now because this ice cream melts fast.

Some people figure why not deceive now? The relationships are shorter anyway.

You know, he isn't really loaded!! Duh!! LOL.......... He says he likes to shoot, fish and work on cars. I bet he is a computer nerd/geek trying to look tough!..... Then, he wasn't lying and I'm scared of that stuff. I don't get dates and don't care really. I am not out to impress any women. The only thing that matters is that my family and friends know who I am. They accept me for who I am and will always be there no matter what. Stuff like this is why I never internet dated before and probably won't ever again. I like the old fashioned face to face approach much better. At least then you have a better chance of seeing what you are getting.
Are you sure you're not lieing? LOL! j/k

No gonna lie...a LOT of guys do this. Why women swoon over guys like this is beyond me. I suppose guys figure that if every other guy is doing it, so why shouldn't I? The sad part is that the guys who are up front and honest about who they are appear "boring", thus dont stnd a chance at all.

Ugh, there is just something about lying that completely turns me off someone. The truth may be ugly but I'd rather deal with someone who doesn't feel the desperate need to pretend to be perfect.
