So, yesterday I get a random message from a guy on MFP. "you are very pretty!!!"

I message him back, "You do know I'm a guy, right?"

His response, "LOL WELL YOU WIFE IS VERY PRETTY LOL HAHA"



No wonder women hate men.

    You would not believe some of the stuff that comes in my message box on here. For reals.

    Yeah it's no wonder most women just automatically assume we are all d-bags.

    I think he was just covering his *kitten* and really thought you were the pretty one. lol

    This is exactly why I don't post any pictures of my progress that aren't fully clothed.

    Your right Roadie - Back to the original post, the guy that emailed him knew/assumed the the gal was married and still tried to hit on her. It's guys like that that make it so much more difficult for us good guys to even get a foot in the door.

    I am kind of depressed that I don't get the creepy messages. Maybe I need a blonde wig.

    I have gotten messages on here that have literally made me nauseous. I don't think it's representative of most men, certainly not the ones in this group, but it is ridiculous what some guys think is appealing to a woman.

    Take a picture with a guy and I'll send you a message saying your husband is very pretty. :noway:

    For sure! I put one day that I burnt my tongue on my lunch .. and I literally got 6 messages from men within like 3 minutes with the nastiest messages.

    If women hate men so much how come these ladies on this board go bananas every time they meet one?!

    Can we stop perpetuating the myth that all men are scum and women are angels......especially guys doing it. Suckups.

    I agree that the bashing gets on my nerves at times, but here is a guy who sends a message based on nothing but a picture. I was obviously in a relationship with her. And had he taken five seconds to look at my profile, he'd have realized I'm a 46 year old man and not the woman he thought he was messaging.

    Add to that, this isn't a dating site. So, he's trolling for women on a diet and health site. He seems to think complementing her looks would get her.

    Every bad guy negates ten good guys.

    No. What negates 10 goods guys is the stereo type that guys in general are scumbags and always trying to sleep with women (well actually this is true) and these women having so many insecurities and walls up that when they meet a good guy they dont know how to reciprocate. Lucky for you OP your lady didn't fall for the male bashing. #guycode

    Really true. And it makes it harder for the decent guys. That's part of why dating has gotten so complex over time. Every negative experience has a woman has with a man makes it harder for the decent guys. Likewise, because guys have often been mistreated by women, there are negative associations there. It is a vicious cycle.

    Um, no. The nice guys are the first kicked to the curb. The best guys are the ones who are confident, have backbone yet know when to be caring.

    YAY! I got my first dirty message. Thanks Jen. ;)

    Some of us are looking for the nice guy who doesn't play games and isn't all about getting in the girl's pants. Sometimes guys do suck but sometimes they are great. But now with internet dating and all the bs that goes with it, it is hard to find the nice ones.

    Agreed.

    I don't think bad guys gave the good guys a bad name for me but like someone said, I def had (still have it) my guard up and wouldn't fall for lines guys gave. Now if your actions match up with the beautiful words you're giving me, then we're good!
    So yeah, I can understand how it'd be a little harder to break through with a woman when you're a decent guy.

    Add to that, this isn't a dating site.

    I'm going to have to ask for proof before I believe this.

    But what if I really like playing Monopoly and Connect 4?

    I aim to please baby!! lol.

    I have a nice boy and he didn't get kicked to the curb. I call him my mush monster because he is so darn sweet.

    Hmm.. I like breaking bad boys' hearts.

    No but really. I like nice guys. I've had my share of *kitten*.

    I just want my nice guy to be confident and not clingy. It seems a lot of nice guys are super clingy.. I wonder why?

    Maybe it's because they're used to being kicked to the curb by women, so when a woman actually wants a nice guy and sticks with him, he gets super elated and becomes super clingy.. which is a huge turn off for a lot of women.

    Okay, so I don't want a nice guy. I want a nice manly man.

    ^^ This

    The thing is girls (well probably not all girls, but I do) want a guy that cuts through the crap and is straight up with me. I don't want lines, nasty come ons or games. Guys that are confident, nice and don't play mind games will always get the girl long term. Guys that are confident but douchy might get a girl short term but it won't last. Guys that are nice but with no confidence will never get the girl.

    I think the main problem is that the guys who are douches tend to have more confidence than the nice guys. I just get sick of the ones who are stalkers and it makes me hesitant to talk to guys in general.

    Can someone explain to me how a guy acting like a douche,which is a tangible thing (words,actions etc) but has some abstract and arbitrary quality that we will call "confidence" is desirable in either the short or long term?

    His "douche-ness" cancels out the attraction of his confidence and brings his desire factor back to zero. At least for me it does.
