Are there any single guys who aren't looking for women just for sex?

Obviously, I am going through something here so no ridicule or bashing please.

    We all like it and want it but that doesn`t mean we can`t be decent and loving too and happy to go without when we are caring for a lady. :flowerforyou:

    You need to take some time out of the game and just enjoy being single for a while. You can't approach dating like you NEED a man. Nor can you go in with the mindset that all men are scoundrels.

    I am not a man but I think you deserve the world and nothing less. Remember that.

    There is no man that has told me "I"m ready to settle", although I hang out with younger men. Long term relationships just happen.

    I think the saying is true .. all the good ones are pretty much taken! I'm sure there are some left but it's like finding a four leaf clover. *sigh*

    Yes I know. I've been single for awhile. I don't feel that I NEED a man. I take care of myself and my kids pretty well without one. Actually, I do that better than I did when I had one. Doesn't stop me from wanting one though.

    It's just that I met someone that seemed absolutely wonderful. And then he showed his true colors. It's just kind of disappointing.

    Of course it's disappointing, that's just being human. But that's when you sever and move on. Look at it as a gift that he showed his hand early on. Don't waste your time.

    I am a man that is in the process of restoring my faith with my wife. We went through hell and back with my horrible addiction. I am now clean and my wife and I now have better sex than ever. I want it more because I love my wife more.

    For all you men (and women) out there, pornograghy is an addiction just like drugs and alcohol. It has ruined my marriage, but we are working it out. If your addicted, I highly suggest finding somebody to help keep you accountable. You can count on me if your struggling. Just IM me and we can keep it just between us. I can help you and you can help me too.

    Cheers

    of course there are- but that type of man usually comes into your life when you're happy and content with yourself because that is the type of women that a man like that is attracted to. He doesn't want to save you he's looking for a partner who will contribute equally to the relationship. They are out there, I know because I married one.

    Expectations lead to disappointments...

    Don't go looking for the "perfect man"...you'll never find him. Instead, find the one whose flaws are minimally irritating :laugh:

    Well I never said he was perfect. I don't expect anyone to ever be perfect. My luck is that the flaws are usually gargantuanly disastrous. Apparently, I lack the ability to pick them.

    I'm happy with myself. And I have a lot to contribute to a relationship... I have always contributed more than the man. Hence, my frustration. I'm tired of doing all the work.

    yes

    just as there are single women not just looking for sex,

    they're just harder to find it seems.

    but it's worth the hassle.

    I say stop looking for a relationship, and just go out and have fun AND have sex. The relationship will find you when you least expect it, and we can't all be born again virgins. Just saying that Hooked on Batteries worked for me ;-)
