I feel like this too! But you know what I always get? We hang out, we have great sex, we have lots of fun.....then I get "I don't see myself being in a romantic relationship with you." Like I'm always good enough to have fun with....but I'm never good enough to be emotional with! I always get thrown to the friends category. "You are beautiful, fun, intelligent, an amazing lover....BUT" WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A BUT!!!!!!!!!! I'm beautiful, fun, intelligent, able to keep you sexually satisfied, independent, have a graduate degree, a stable career, my own place.....WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A BUT?!?!?!?!?!?!
My friends say and most of them are guys....that I intimidate men because I am so amazing. HOW IS THAT MY PROBLEM?!!?!?!?!?!:ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell:
Seems like it's that you give him what he wants without him needing to be in a "relationship" with you, thus letting him do what he wants with others as well.
Some people call those open relationships
Yeah, I'm not own for open relationships. Maybe I need to set expectations earlier (I'm looking for a solid relationship), but even when I do that, it seems to make them think I'm moving too fast. IDK about others, but when I'm seeing someone multiple times a week, cooking for him, having sleep overs, talking every day....that seems to be turning into a relationship. If I like someone, I show it....but then they always turn around and say that's not what they want.
Honestly, I would say, " I am not trying to get ahead of myself, but if you are looking for a hook up or just sex, then you are not getting it here or I am not ready until......" Honestly, you will know how many are TRULY interested in you. It seems as though you are attracting the wrong type of men.0 -

Then they aren't into you.
And if you aren't ok with being the booty call then you should put a stop to that.0 -
Are women really that dependant on a man. What I mean is, if a guy likes you, then that's it for you? There's no filter on your side too? I find that pretty hard to believe, especially after what happened to me with my ex wife.
No sometimes I'm the one not feeling it...but I don't just disappear...I say we should just be friends.0 -
The right one for you will always appear when you are ready to commit to him. Be patient. He's out there. Don't throw yourself at someone who's just nice. Wait for the one who is IT!0

Don't worry about people who aren't alert enough to see who is standing in front of them. Be patient and good things will come your way soon enough.
Just don't push yourself into doing something you might regret. My son married a lady he thought he knew (he'd known her about 10 years and dated her for two). Three years later their marriage was annulled because the judge even recognized they didn't have a clue. They're both better off, but it was a very painful experience for my son - he was simply heart broken.
My kids were raised to dedicate their lives to their wives when they married. My oldest waited until he was 34 - youngest is now 31 and is again looking, but both of them work like 100 hours a week, so it will take a miracle for him to meet someone.
You can find someone who is trustworthy, loyal, honest and who will cherish you as a rare jewel. When you do, you'll know it. Then, assuming he deserves it, you do the same.
Fairy book tales do exist. You can live one.0 -
I think you are beautiful! and if you were closer (Houston) I would be one of those moms who sets you up on a date with her son. (he's just a little bit younger than you) LOL0

Some guys are spineless, I guess. You're better off.0 -
You're an attractive young woman, and there are plenty of really great guys out there.
not to sound goofy or corny, you might mix it up a bit -- pursue a new activity, maybe something you thought about and haven't tried.
I think when men and women are having a good time it brings out the best in them and everyone just really shines.0 -

I know how you feel with the always single. I get tired of feeling like the only single in a world full of doubles. I've been through so many crappy dates the last few years it's ridiculous. I've just resigned myself to the fact that even though everyone always says "there's someone out there", "it just takes time", "you'll find him eventually" (it's always people in relationships who say that, lol) some people are just going to be single. Most the time I'm fine with it but there are times and days when it would be wonderful to have someone around. But after a while, I guess you just get used to being single and you go on with your life as it is. But you're young and beautiful so I'm positive you'll find someone, and it'll probably be when you least expect it

Ugh....so I'm not sure what is wrong with me. But yet another guy just disappeared....Asked me out on a few dates....I thought they went well....all of a sudden the texts slow down and then nada. I just don't get it. Used to blame my weight....now I'm afraid its just me haha. Ugh...sorry just wanted to vent
Thats no good! Wish I could have an explaination for you.. its probably something irrational anyways that you are probably better of without him, if he didnt have the balls to tell you face to face. My guess, and sorry to say, is that you were probably filling in time for him. So just move on and find someone who makes time for you! Theres nothing wrong with the way you, you look great! Its just him being a douche!0 -
I hear ya there girl.0

If it makes you feel better, women do the same thing as far as disappearing and in the world of facebook you can watch their relationship status switch over to hooked up afterward and illuminate you as to why they disappeared.
Uh not for me, I just changed my relationship status from single to in a relationship with my bf's name linked into & after that, guys have been chatting or sending me messages that I'm pretty, blah blah blah & that they want me to be their gf. They didn't mind me when I was still single but now that I have somebody, suddenly they begin to appear from nowhere. I don't get it.
What I meant is you can date someone and then they disappear and then a few days later their facebook status changes over to in a relationship with some other guy and that tells you why they disappeared.
As to what you are talking about, yes ... that is something that happens a lot. People want what they can't have. Or at the very least want to **** you and then don't need to hang around because you're already with someone else so they can cut and run.
Yes you're right & that's very ridiculous. Truth is telling someone that you're not interested in his/her face is very difficult thing to do. We human beings are built to socialize & therefore its not easy to be vocal about your negative feelings which is why people just rather show it than to talk about it.0 -

You have to be somewhat picky and know you are worth. If you expecting something you can't give also, ok that is being unreasonable.0 -
Age is only a thing if you let it be
And guys are taught by the female species that nice guys are the ones you use as an emotional tampon. No guy wants to be labeled a nice guy. It's a death mark.0 -
You are not alone. I am in the same boat as you. I've met too many *kitten* and because of that I have not gone out on a date in awhile...and I am ok with it. I figure he will come along at some point
Seems there are zero "good" guys left plus I get hit on by 21-24 yr olds or 70+ year olds. Never someone my own age
LOL!!! Gotta watch out for those 70+ year olds...0 -
There are 'nice guys' and there are good men.
The trick is to recognize the diffence. Pick a good man and you'll never go wrong.0 -
lol@nice being the death mark. At my age I would LOVE to meet a nice guy! It's been so long since I've actually met a nice guy I'm not even sure I'd recognize one now.0

For me I would rather go with the 21-24 year old dudes than being with someone who is even older than your own grandfather. At least the younger ones makes you feel young.0
