this will be a rant so please forgive me now.

MEN FLIPPIN SUCK! why cant RL men be like MFP men? i swear that the men here are the only men on earth that are decent. now i could be wrong... they could all just be putting up a front from behind the pc, but the men here are AMAZING! why is it sooooo FN hard to find a decent man? i met two new guys this weekend, and BOTH tried to sleep with me from the jump. i mean, didnt even attempt to get to know ANYTHING about me. now im no saint, and i have had my fair share of one night stands... but SERIOUSLY! i wish i could get the chance to meet some of the MFP men in person. reason for that... to shake ur hands and to THANK you for being the amazing, supporting, complimenting men that u are. even the ones who are super flirty, ALWAYS know when to draw the line. thank u guys for giving me hope that somewhere in this world there just might be ONE good guy left.

end rant.

    The MFP men ARE real men. There are lots of wonderful guys out there - you'll find one. They can't all be gems, anymore than all women can be.

    Men and women are equally as bad. But I agree, I wish I could meet a lot of the guys on here.

    well they tell me there are good men out there but I was feeling the same today , MFP men are great, they dont judge a woman by her size, they see maybe a pretty face sure but they take the time to talk and get to know you and are supportive and encouraging and its so great! So to those that have been there for me personally thank you.

    But in real life I have not had a good guy be supportive at all no way, either they are insecure and dont want you thin for risk of losing you so bring crap food into a house or they maybe support your eating well and then get all jealous your gonna get thin and other guys will notice and you will leave them. so its basically all about them, they dont ever simply focus on you doing the work to get healthy and in turn a side effect is more attractive to other guys, they need to suck it up and deal with it lol.

    Just tell them to stop sitting on their brains and get a clue lol.

    A lot of the guys on here get stuck in the "friend" zone in RL, others are putting up a front, and still others think they have a pool of easy fish with low self esteem (someone pointed out to me recently that MFP was listed on some PUA forum as a place to get easy hook ups)... Personally I don't even get the friend zone in RL because they all cross the street clutching their handbags with a look of fright on their faces when they see me coming.

    Agree with SoldierDad. There are a lot of good guys out there. Your time will come OP. It'll come for you and all the other amazing MFP ladies that I have the privilege to interact with on a regular basis. Y'all kick just as much *kitten* as we do!!! :flowerforyou:

    Amen! Rant on! I was never one to hate men, thought some were def bigger jerks than others, but, surely they weren't ALL bad... I've been proven wrong time and time and time again and I've become a bonafide man hater (yet I do agree those here are very supportive - thank you) and I have no desire to ever bother being with one - I don't need to be with someone to feel like crap about myself, thankyouverymuch! Rant on, sister! ;-)

    We all get to know each other without pretenses.
    I have to say the same about MFP ladies,so sweet and caring while looking you right in the eye and saying what they think and feel.

    Can`t help but to luv all them on my friends list. :heart:

    There are men that suck and there are women that suck. Every person just needs to be patient, the right person will come along. Be confident, look in good places (NOT the local bar/club), and remember even if you don't find "the one" your life will be as fulfilling and complete as you make it too be.

    It blows that the nice guys get stuck in the friend zone. If people would pull their heads out of their a$$es, they would often realize that the best thing they could ever find is right there holding them when the idiots break their hearts....

    I don't judge people by what they look like. I know too many "dirtballs" or "scary" people that are AMAZING!! If I judged them by the way they looked, I would never have gotten to know them. If you are good to me, I'll be good to you.

    As for clutching my purse tighter and crossing the street- jtsmou honey you don't scare me! I'd look you in the eyes and smile as I passed you. :flowerforyou:

    Girl I've been feeling this way for a long time. I get the same, a lot of guys who try to sleep with me off the bat. I've resolved to focusing on myself, going back to school, finding hobbies, keeping up with my fitness, and doing things for just me and forgetting about guys for a while.
    I still have faith that good guys are out there, but I'm not going to actively search for them... Don't give up hope.. but just be thankful that you find out about those not so great guys from the beginning, it makes it a lot easier to weed them out!

    I agree. Problem with good men is they are as hard to find in real life. Just as hard as a man finding a good woman. He's coming, and when he arrives you'll appreciate him more because of what you've been through.

    Ditto... I'm always put in the "Friend Zone"..... but I don't mind... being nice and trust worthy works for me...

    Besides... I think i prefer to be in the "Friend Zone" because every girl I have dated must have been breed from crazy town!!!!

    Friends...YES PLEASE!

    Again, a huge overstatement, but they're really not ripe until they're at least 30.....

    I have to partially agree with that one. i was a totally different person at 20 than I am now. I married at 21 out of "sence of duty" to someone I didn't really love. That didn't last...My fault totally. I DID SUCK.

    At 30 i re-married and made a commitment to someone I fell for. Too bad she wouldn't stop destroying herself and trying to take me down with her...Her fault totally. I could say women suck, but I know they don't, even her.

    The difference in age just brought a little more wisdom, a little more tolerance, and a little more respect for others. BUT, I know plenty of 40 something year old male JERKS. That's why most all my friends are women, even my BEST FRIEND.

    I've also decided that I want my next guy to be a good friend first. Friendship is definitely a good basis for a relationship....so all you guys that get put in the "friend zone" a lot, don't fret, someday you'll move out of it too.... . So for now, I'll stay away from the jerks and continue to do everything I said in my previous post.
