I feel like everytime I meet someone I like, they end up being "to good to be true". I don't think my standards are too high. Help!!!

consider yourself blessed or fortunate. each relationship has revealed the negatives before you made a commitment. if you lower your standards do you really think that will improve your chances of finding a decent person? as they say in my generation, "keep on keeping on" we be jammin

Some guys have high standards that are pretty low......it is all relative...

Well, all I really want from someone is to get as good as I give. Like honesty, without it there's no trust. Someone who doesn't hide who they really are. I tend to be an open book and I'm not afraid to admit to my faults or when I'm wrong. I seem to be attracted to men who are not what they seem to be. I've had a real hard time finding men who are honest. On the other hand I've only had 3 really serious relationships and the first one was marriage to my highschool sweetheart that lasted 18 years. Until he decided drugs where more important than his family.

Have you considered the wonders of a bottle of chloroform and a good set of handcuffs?

don't mind them..they are just loose cannons here... just be yourself and let people get to know you.here.. and after awhile you will pick up on who is real and who is not...

I seem to be attracted to men who are not what they seem to be. I've had a real hard time finding men who are honest.
arghhh why do i look at folks profiles?? 
okay maybe they don't take you seriously??
in your profile you say one thing but your pics say another..
you state one child a son 18 ...yet in the pic it says on the top julie & her BOYS and since the boys look like brothers.... kinda seems a bit odd is all and maybe sends a message of deceit?? just an observation not a slam okay?

As long as you continue to do what you always have, you will always get what you always have.

becky, no offense taken, I guess I should have made comments on the pic with my now 21 year old son and his best friend who lived with us the last three years they were in high school and who is like a son to me. Now that you know the story, shouldn't be anything that looks deceitful there. 
As far as doing what I've always done, that's irrevelant too, as I've NOT always done or lived the same way. Of course you couldn't possibly have known that and thanks for the input.

It doesnt matter where you live. Its your criteria that you use. Nothing is ever irrelavent when you deal with people. I had to learn the hard way.

Sorry Silver, I didn't make myself clear I actually live in the same town I was born in and have for most of my life. In fact, the only times I didn't live here were when I was married. What I ment was that I have lived my life in different ways.

One of the wisest statements I have read on this site Silver. This is a keeper.

By the way Silver, I loved your joke about the couple who divorced over religous reasons.  Also I too agree that when you deal with people nothing is irrevelant. That wasn't what I ment.
