Are men less manly?
... than they used to be (20 years ago+). - Are men less "manly" in your opinion - biologically? Mentally? Emotionally? (Sexually?) - Why do you think this is? - And is this acceptable and even desirable nowadays? (I'll post my thoughts later, but don't want to influence people by replying to my own question right now)

To those with kids
I went on one date with a guy that I really like. He has his son 50% of the time and is very involved, which I think is great. When he has his son he has him from Tuesday-Monday every other week. So we went out Sunday night and we agreed we want to see each other again, and now he has his son so he said I could come over…

My self esteem is ruining and ruling my life
There has to be someone out there who can relate to this. I hope, anyways. I have been hanging out with this guy. He showed a lot of interest, always invited me out, always invited me over, etc...and because of my self esteem, he has told me he is no longer interested. I always declined going out because I hate how I look…

reconciling the disconnect between MFP and online dating
so, on here i put up my profile picture and i got a bunch of messages ( from guys and girls) about how much they liked it or loved it. i put up the exact same picture on my profile on OKC, and i got ONE message about liking the picture, and one other that stated i wasn't smiling in it. i am having an issue between what i…

Shake your groove thing!
Who here loves to dance? Like when you go out for the night you actually hit the dance floor and break it down instead of wallflowering all night. Some of my most fun nights out were made on the dance floor having a great time with girlfriend/date/friends dancing, laughing and being carefree. I think it's clear that women…

Advice needed...
I was talking to this guy back in March, we met online. We had an immediate connection and it quickly moved to nightly phone calls before we met. We met and it was great, connection was there (or so I thought anyways ). A few days after we met he decided that "he liked me, but not enough"...those were his words and the…

How was your weekend?
Mine was great....nothing Friday, Saturday I worked in the morning and then ventured to the mall in the POURING rain with my cousin, came home and chilled out...texting with a few boys from POF--hard to keep 3 straight--not cut out for that, I dont think AND I was texting with a fourth guy not from POF. Sunday unexpected…

New dating site - based on food similarities
SamePlate matches up singles based on what they like (or don't like) to eat. I read this on HungryGirl.com - very interesting.

Doctors and Patients...
I've been seeing my chiropractor (as a patient) for a couple years now and I always tell one of my friends how I think he is cute, nice, funny, etc., and I know he is single. Well, lately she has been bugging me to go ahead and ask him out. But I don't think it is a really good idea. To me it just doesn't seem right and I…

Age challenge
The past few days I've challenged myself to look at online dating profiles and guess the person's age before reading it. For the most part I'm accurate within a year or two, however, there were a few that I guessed 10 years older or younger and was proven wrong (that's a huge difference!). I'm fairly open with the age…

Q for the women: Shirtless pic: OK, or tacky?
So, is it OK for a guy to post a shirtless pic on an on line dating site? Or is this just too tacky? Various on-line dating "experts" disagree, so it's time for some real world data. Cast your vote: "OK" or "Tacky". (Or whatever else you'd like to say)

Came across this on pinterest
"Set your alarm for 6am. Don’t groan when it goes off and pull the covers over your head, get up and start your day. Put on a baggy top and running shorts. Go downstairs and pour yourself a nice big glass of ice water. Cut up some fruit and mix it in with yogurt. Add some granola. Now go outside. Stretch for 10 minutes.…

Why do I do this to myself??
Ok why do I go out with a guy that I have luke warm vibes towards when I get the impression that he will be very into me? Ego?? I had a date with a gentleman tonight, we had spoken on the phone a few times, quirky but sweet and a strong accent and weird sense of humour. I thought I'll meet him...no harm right? UGH, he had…

A quick poll..........
Let me preface this by saying I am not looking for advice. I want to know what you would think if it happened to you. You are meeting a new man for the second time. The first date was great. Easy conversation, laughing and just comfortable. You say your goodbyes. You are now on your second meeting, a quick lunch date that…

I love it when a woman...
Because we need a yen with the yang, I'll start the mirror thread for the men. I love it when a woman: - Initiates (a date, a kiss, sex, hell, anything). - Is comfortable enough to walk around naked around me.

argh I want it to be official
So if you have been following me on here then you would know about mall guy. Well, we still hang out and such (and yes he has turned around....even my roomies like him now). But we are coming up to four months of I really dont know what we are. And I really like him like being his gf but why hasnt he asked me yet? its been…

Kid Dates
Is it okay if you are dating someone for both of you to bring your kids and go on dates that way? Is it even really a date then?

Online dating... When they're online frequently
What do you think of a guy (or gal) who's always online? Backstory... So Hulk and I went out 3 times already over 1.5 weeks. He's on a boat 4 days, then home for 4. He called me 2 days ago to make sure we were okay after he invited me to stay over on 3rd date and I declined. I thought it was nice of him to make sure I was…

Have to ask....
For those of you that do the online dating....girls---do you get inbox full of 20+ messages a day? I don't! never have and don't know anyone who does? Maybe it is just the younger, super hot girls? I have some friends that are younger and would probably be considered "hot", but even they do not get that many messages.…

The Sky Is Blue, No Matter How Red You Want It
Got a newsletter from that Katz guy someone here told us about. His point was that a lot of people focus on what the opposite sex SHOULD be as opposed to how they ARE, and, that kind of wishing is no more useful than wishing the sky would be RED just because that’s your favorite color. You can dream about a red sky, gripe…

SHHH... Don't ruin the plot...
I'm talking to this guy, and he just watched a movie that I want to see. He tells me it's good. Okay. Great. Thanks. I can't wait to see it. He, then, says, "It has a twist to the movie... " Don't tell me anymore. I don't want to know. I want to be surprised. He won't shut up! I'm quite aggravated. Okay, vent done. *P.S. I…

Sex life...
Why is it that I always hear about how once you're married or whatever, your sex life goes down the drain? I swear, I can't see that ever happening to me. I'm probably just naive, but do all women say that before they're married? I've never been married, but unless I was sick, or he'd done something terrible and we were in…

First Date in 7 years...
So I had my first date in 7 years (was in a relationship for 5). It went well, a little awkward, but good conversation, just a coffee at lunch. But we both headed back to our respective offices, and as we said good bye it was really awkward, I shook his hand and he said "keep in touch". Not sure if I put him off, or made…

Need a guy's perspective (girls' thoughts too please!)
I don’t post here often, but I have been reading some threads lately about Single Peeps wishing it was easier to approach someone they’re interested in, or simply wishing others would approach them more often. I can really identify with this, so I took this discussion to heart and realized that I really need to put myself…

On-line dating favors men
I'm seeing a lot of messages here from women who are confused about the behavior of men with whom they interact through on-line dating services. Let me try to explain... The access to many more women (by a factor of 1000 or more?) is a boon to men. Especially young men who are not looking for a serious relationship, but…

Job Snob
Does it matter to you what the person you date does for a living? Do you care how much money they make? Would you go out with someone unemployed or who was unhappy with their job? I'm not a materialistic person, and I don't necessarily care how much money someone makes as long as he is stable and can take care of his…

Bright Red Lipstick
<LOVES her red lipstick!!! Actually, this is a tinted gloss. Very easy to lick off when needed and reapply. I also wear “no smudge” lipstick around my son or during a race. Yesterday there was a comment about she’s not the one if she wears bright red lipstick. Quite a few ladies (myself included) responded they love bright…

HEY, Single Peeps!
Just wanted to say HAVE A GREAT DAY!!! No matter WHERE you are in the world or WHEN you are, I hope that today is FANTASTIC for you! :happy: I'm about to go hang out with a bunch of kids and go swimming this afternoon. Okay, that's all. Now you may get back to your regularly scheduled programming.
