Why aren't more guys ballsy?

I'd ask you out but I don't have boy junk, well not attached to me anyways.... hehehe :laugh:

So you're 5'10", won't date guys shorter than you and won't approach men?

No offense but it's no wonder your single. You've just labeled 50% of the men in the world un-dateable and you've probably cut out another 25% by ruling out shy guys.

there are guys out there with just as many rules about dating girls, if not more. i know guys that would never date a girl that are taller then them, or weigh more then them, or only date blondes or only date certain ethnic groups. Amber just wants guys that are taller then her, and wants them to approach her. Why? cuz she's a woman, thats why, and she wants to feel like one goddammit. she doesn't want to be the one in the relationship that has to reach for the pickle jar on the top shelf and then open it.

i on the other hand, am not picky at all. not in the slightest. no uggos, though.

Absolutely. And I think those men are missing out as well. I had "rules" or preferences when I was young and single too. Had I stuck with them I would have never ended up with my now husband of 8 years and the father of my 3 children. I wanted a "big" man to make me feel small and feminine.

Now I realize that my femininity is NOT in the least bit defined by societies standards of woman = smaller than men. I am a woman because I want to be one. I can be soft and pretty or hard and strong and I am still who I am. I'm a mother, a wife, a friend, a body builder, a rugby player, a mountain biker, a scientist, etc. I am not limited by societies definition of "woman".

Yikes! It's not your height, its your attitude and lack of confidence. Be happy with yourself first and love with find its way around. Jeesh!

Pretty much all guys suck... I am 6'1 and I guess I am intimidating, I will likely never marry and I am okay with that.

Ha ha! Nothing like the man-hater vibe to really draw them in right? :laugh:

Man people twists things on the interweb. I am very confidant, I love who I am and that I am tall. I dont need a man or to marry to make me happy in life. And perhaps if men were actually chivalrous they wouldnt seem so terrible. I dont hate them, but I am not much impressed with the mass majority of them.

I disagree. Women have all of the power when it comes to dating. Men have learned to adapt

"Men Suck"

No no no... you're doing it wrong. YOU suck.

:laugh:

I agree with this statement

Why don't you ask?

yes
just ask

I'm really not sure why you are disagree with me. I never said "men have power". Dating isn't about power.

Sorry, I meant disagree with the reply before yours. Both sides are playing games. Men and women are both guilty. This is one of many reasons that men are turned off to dating.

:huh: So basically I can't have a type... because I don't date guys shorter than me, that's a problem...? And because I have standards it's my problem I'm single.

You learn something new every day.

Not necessarily you're problem but because you do have a type and standards you should realize that it will be harder to find someone that lives up to those. So you can either lose the standards and talk to guys and date or keep the standards so the guys you date will be what you want and not complain that you're not dating

Why would your relationship status be anyone's problem but your own?

You can have "standards". Don't date criminals, abusers, alcoholics, etc. You can even appearance/behavior "preferences". All we are saying is that you are limiting your options by having such stick "rules". Good men come in all shapes and sizes. Finding partners we are compatible with is really really hard. Most people only find one in their entire life. If you are only considering 25% of men, your chances of finding a "match" are even lower than most.

Perfectly stated.

I am 5'10" and biracial. Some men found that difficult to categorize, but most didn't care. When I was looking, I made sure that I was approachable and did not fault men for not approaching me. They will show their interest if you seem interesting. Now, I'm happily married to my husband who is 5'10" and all it took was a little eye contact and a short skirt.. No, but seriously, it's nice to be approached by men, but there's nothing wrong with going after what you want. If your approach isn't working, it's time to step your game up!

and a short skirt..

Pictures would be nice. Just sayin'

<---Because when you ask Amber out that leads to sex (eventually hopefully) and when that leads to sex you need a divorce lawyer and when you need a divorce lawyer you spend alot of money. Dont spend alot of money...switch to DirectTv...

For the record, this may only be funny to me but I love those commercials!!

Finally someone who thought the exact same thing as I did

And I mean that as in personality.

I'm single. Super tall girl so I intimidate the crap out of men, apparently. But if see an attractive girl that you want to take out, why not just ask? Stop being so damn shy! lol

That's my "rant"...

You don't intimidate me - tall girls rock, especially in heels. I'll never figure out why so many guys don't like tall girls... how tangled up can you even get with someone who's really short? (I'm 6')

because I'm married and my wife wouldnt appreciate me doing that.. otherwise......

I'm in the same boat.....

Ha Ha, see gentlemen, that's where you went wrong...need to find a woman who is into polygyny...all problems solved!!
