Most succinct distinction of the 'no good men out there' women I have read, I think.

Quite, but they make good player fodder though.

Don't be fooled. There are as many PUA women as there are men. The play is equal.

I've got young kids, so I meet a lot of parents of similar age kids, and the single parent women also have unrealistically high standards, expecting to meet a perfect bloke (especially no divorcees with their own kids) to take on their ready made family.

I seen one on pof where she actually wrote in her profile she didn't want a guy with any kids, even though she had a kid of her own. I come with a kid and you've got to accept that but I won't accept you coming with any?!

I couldn't believe it, however it was rather handy for highlighting how much of a complete she is without having to find out the hard way.

I'd never be one to discriminate.

They came across as pretty odious people. I don't suppose for one second they might consider the fact that they've been single so long might be down to their godawful personalities.

This. When they're younger/early 20's they love the guys chasing them and generally treating them like st, they forget that they get older and there's a whole new wave of such girls, but without baggage/unrealistic wish lists. I only know one girl in my group of friends where I'm totally dumbfounded how she's still single, she's attractive, successful etc - I've never dated her so maybe she's just st in bed.

I knew one of these people quite well, and he acknowledged a certain lack of satisfaction with it.
Basically, he trawled through literally hundreds of women and never really liked any of them.
The upshot, according to him, were that the only women who went for it were the ones punching above their weight (or significantly under their weight in a literal sense) hence he had no interest in them whatsoever other than a quick bum.
Amazing change when he met one nice girl and was completely besotted and faithful from then on.

You just described me apart from the hunk bit, says a lot that id likely be discounted by these vacuous narcissist on my looks alone.. When the reality is I look no worse than Ryan Gosling, who was hired and is often hired for films because he's 'ugly', to play the everyman.

the issue being most on here would struggle to engage with a girl who works a tescos till let alone a woman with a proper career and aspirations. to hear you talk sometimes its like we're in a timewarp to the 70s. the 1870s.

There are unreasonable expectations from both sexes on here.

Being mid 20s I see plenty of women as described above. Think they are something special.

Thought i would chip in with a Match success story.

Decided after a disastrous last relationship to give Match a go straight after Christmas; posted up a profile, spent a few hours tweaking the details, and i had one lady contact me on the 2nd day. I'd really put up an honest description of what i wanted, likes & dislikes - it was something the detail that really caught her eye in fact. ( in case you are wondering, i'm a lover of classical music, and my new partner is a violinist).

Chatted over DM, then email, then agreed to meet a few days later.

Long story short- I move into her place in a few weeks time. Cannot believe that i've met someone with such similar outlook on life and we are both very happy.

Never thought online dating would work - turned out to meet a quite remarkable lady.

Haha, no. Sly Fox's post sounds similar to that of an old school friend (Jasmin) that I'm still in touch with on Facebook.

Bit soon to be moving in isn't it? I say that from experiance, I moved in with my ex in a similar time frame(however, it would be impossible for this nice lady you've found to be as much of a money grabbing, emotion fking, bh that she was)

It is quite soon- but actually we've already connected at a much deeper level than i have experienced in previous relationships, including my (ex)wife. Lot's of talking about each other, past relationships, basically being honest and realising the other person is doing the same. Moving in feels the right thing to do, both feel that way, and money doesn't come into it.

Understand that - it does seem quite soon but I remember when I met my wife, we had both decided separately never to marry again. Then we met and actually within a couple of weeks I was thinking "I could end up marrying this woman" and evidently she felt the same; the connection, or whatever, was that quickly established. 6 years on and all is still rosy. Sometimes it just happens that quickly.

Does it mention that they will only date 6'+ tall men only as they like to wear heels?
