I guess i just want to sound off here. I've been single quite some time. I am just fooled at the lines men use to get intimate but never once ask "hey want to go out to dinner and get to know one another".. Aren't we missing some steps along the way?

I have dated some great guys that I have met through online dating that were not all about jumping in bed. And, yes, that is after meeting in person...I guess we learned some things about each other online and on the phone first, so we were able to know a bit and then go for coffee, bike rides, dinner (I used to meet first just before I had to be at work to give myself a time limit!) The men I met in the bars are another story!! Good luck!

Sometimes the venting by women on MD makes me wonder about my own gender. Sex shouldn't be indescriminate. All I can say is there are some very frustrated men out there. No wonder they're not getting any. A little patience and human regard for a potential lover is the very least that's required. There are still a few good guys around. They're just a little harder to find than asses.

Good guys arent as noticeable as the lesser members of this gender. You gotta pay attention and not be dating a jerk at the time.
I assure you, good women are every bit as hard to find-at least single ones. I guess it is just a matter of being available and not jumping after the first thing that gives you the time of day.

i don't know i haven't dated in three years for that reason alone.. its the guys that lost their license driving drunk or are unemployed that find me lol... i have to say that it is hard especially in a small area.. there really aren't any groups or activities in small areas for single adults. i'd just like to meet someone nice and get to know them lol..

mar,
Try asking men out on a date (this is the 21st century after all...equal status/rights/etc.).
Be respectful, thoughtful and selfless: open doors for them, let them order first and make sure you pay the bill... a dinner and a movie!  If you play all your cards right, you might get lucky and win yourself a good man.

Had to revert to your last post. I first off, did peruse your profile as posted..and one
thing that was a monumental turn off is your SMOKING. Reminds me of kissing
an ash tray..but its your perogative. For the few of us men that are genuine and
trustworthy..we are also quite discerning on the companion, friend and lover we'll
choose. Usually Looks and brains go hand in hand..but from my little cornor of the world. Smarts does play a big part..and since each of us has their own set of wants and likes..it becomes quite difficult to find a "Match"..that will fill the bill..

mar, i have to agree with you, somehow were are missing steps here. I have been single, well widowed for almost 12 yrs and finding a date is hard to do. My main problem is most men do not look below the surface. I am a bbw, but I am also well educated, my kids are mostly out of the home, (only one still here and he is never here more or less, lol).Yes I enjoy the intimate part of life, but hey get to know me first. Or as a friend said, "Know my real name and not online name before asking or taking me to bed." She makes a good point.

I have met a guy Online who:s real patient, seems very nice, is from Illinois
also and we should meet soon, but I suggest the call and nothing happened yet there.... I need to talk that way before meeting ,because you can learn so much by a voice....
So Im holding my ground to that, and because I really am not into long distance relationships, but he seems to talk relocating if we hit it off. Opinions anyone?

I have to admit I'm pretty bad when it comes to dating.  I can be pretty impatient to start things.  And sometimes that turns out ok and sometimes it doesn't. Find it kind of sad that when i list what i want in a guy one of the things is to be a nice and considerate person... So after rebounding off of someone who acted like he was and wasn't I'm going to give this site a try again. I mean can't be that many jerk offs in the world can there? lol In the end i guess I'm going to keep putting myself out there which i know i will get a lot of let downs but hopefully I'll find the right person who isn't.

mr. kew00022 you may be living in old times. according to modern day traditions the person who asks the date i generally supposed to be paying for the date. I'm not choosing side i'm just posting up the facts here.
