    @srslybritt‌ After reading your profile I see that, yes, women can have a personality outside of the bedroom! Great stuff!

    Nothing like taking her for a ride--er, drive, right?

    Seriously, though, yopeeps: No half decent guy wants to "test drive" a woman. What a horrible way to put it and a bad light to shed on your gender. Holy crap, you mean she might have a personality outside of the bedroom??

    Get out of here with all the personality mumbo jumbo!

    Men really use that line. I would never say that to a girl but am I thinking that. Yes and so is almost every man I know.

    You must hang out with a lot of *kitten* then.

    Just think of it as weeding out the douches, getting so future hilarious stories to tell, and making it way worth it when you finally meet a great guy!

    Well, it definitely makes for good conversation when my friends and I go to the pub!

    I'm not sure if it's reassuring to hear other women are having a lousy time dating too, or whether it frightens me because perhaps the men I'm attracting are not a statistical minority...

    Pretty much just what I was thinking. :\

    I've dated 6 guys. 5 of them were unemployed, or became unemployed for REALLY long periods of time while we were dating. All of them have asked to borrow money at least once. I seems to attract men what want a sugar momma. Too bad for them I don't make enough money to be a good sugar momma lol.

    Oh God, at least i'm not alone....but seriously, seems like they are everywhere.
    I had a guy ask me on a first date within the first 30 minutes if "clothing was optional" and then said "would you like to touch my soft balls?" ............uhhhhh

    I can't even get my own husband to date me. We've been on one date since 2002. To a lunch buffet.

    This makes me sad....

    and "almost every man I know". There is only one person I know 100% bought the car without a test drive and I kind of knew he would. I encourage it since he wanted to wait why not.

    well fortunately not everyone thinks like that because- I spent almost 3 years with my BF before "test driving"... with severe trauma issues- that was a REALLY touchy subject- so needless to say both he and I sucked at "test driving"

    it was horrible- we were both really glad we didn't go away and make a big "fun" "romantic" weekend out of it- it was awful.

    The bed room- with proper communication and a good personal connection can be vastly improved upon with work and practice.

    This thread depresses me........

    To be fair to yopeeps, (prepare for unpopular comment)

    Eventually I would want to "test drive" a potential mate. Just because that compatibility is important and all that jazz.

    That is not to say you test drive first. You test drive after you know the car's not going to crash and cause a cinematic fireball.

    My new year's resolution was "no more men". (kind of jokingly, but...)
    I totally understand where you're coming from...

    Oh my gosh. I feel for you. Where did you find this person? So I can avoid it obviously, not start hanging out there or anything creepy.

    I for one don't think that, and believe most men don't think like that.
    Women are nothing like cars.

    *kitten*. I've been doing things all wrong. Is that why my wife always says no when I ask to check under her hood?

    Well, maybe, but the analogy is probably not the thing to say the first time you are talking to someone. Or even the first date. Or even ever.

    Or men who actually know who they are. I do not know too many sexless relationship. I will say that my company of people is very interesting.

    True, definitely not something I'd say out loud. Except perhaps in the case of:

    *kitten*. I've been doing things all wrong. Is that why my wife always says no when I ask to check under her hood?

    Because I laughed so hard.

    No one is suggesting a sexless relationship.

    But comparing having sex with a woman to test driving a car? Gross.

    Oh I do not doubt that straight men encounter their fair share of crazy too! A colleague of mine asked her last date how many women he'd slept with and why he was still 'only' a junior editor at work. Why he didn't call her back, I'll never know.

    I've heard that men usually get a lot of women asking for money for "services" right off the bat. It's horrible with both genders. Comparing one to the other is pointless. Both genders are equally terrible.
