Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Done shaved off my handle bar mustache yesterday I'm not lying, darn it :D. I sold my 69 Honda cb350, probably wouldn't be a big enough bike for the bad boy seen lol, need a Harley. I had one chick checking me out at walmart she was a door greeter (at least she had a job), but I couldn't tell if she was checking me out because I thought I was a thief or what. This was during the time I had the handle bar mustache. My mother that was with me is the main one that noticed she was checking me out. But I can't go to job interviews and have a handle bar mustache. I have had read girls profiles that mentioned that they are just out looking for some, I'll let you figure out what the "some" is.

Get this mess, I just deleted a picture of a friends boat off of my phone by accident that I was fixing to post on Craigs list, this sucks, don't know if I'll be able to recover it.

Hey listen, that's your cue for the Walmart greeter, to find out her intentions, I would casually walk in and say "I'm not really a shoplifter", check her reaction, then say "Maybe it was my handlebar mustache?", and laugh like you were kidding, and see if she's receptive, you'll know by now, the rest is small talk but this should help you get started (make sure there's no wedding, or engagement ring), then tell her she's cute, and ask her name, as you provide yours, next tell her "you've got shopping to do, and not shoplifting,,,lol" then just casually say, "see you later", and leave. This should answer your question, one way or the other.

Why are you even bothering to look at the ads of deranged deluded disenchanted women looking for Prince Charming and a bank balance to match?

Place your own ad. Be realistic and truthful. Let them come to you-and they are far less likely to be the deranged disenchanted divorcees.

It's that easy.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Trust me I have adds out there but just not at the right sites :D. One site I'm on claims that if you have a gold member e-mail you that you can e-mail them back free. Well I haven't had anybody e-mail me. A few years ago I met this one girl on the internet she contacted me. The picture on her profile was nice, I met her in person, well not as nice but her personality was fair. I talked with her over the phone, and chatted with her over the internet. She kept boo hooing over her X-boyfriend couldn't make up her mind on what she wanted to do boo hoo boo hooing, sounds like she wanted a sholder to cry on or advice on what to do to make up with her X-boyfriend. Allot of these dating sites are just another way to get your money. I have one succesfull story that I can tell, my cousin met somebody over the internet a few years back and did end up getting married to her, hear he is in his 40's no kids. She is a little strange though. I don't want to end up like that (no kids). I have an aunt that has never been married now she is 67 years old and no kids. What gets me my brother's neighbor, a fine looking woman younger then me gets married to this guy and decides not to have any children she can't stand children, he has a son. I'm thinking isn't this one of the reasons you was put on this earth for.

Maybe I'll see this chick at walmart again, I am thinking that she's a little young though. Maybe that's why they stuck her as a door greeter so she can find a guy :D.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Good luck with the dating scene. I have been married for 20yrs this December.

I have a friend who was divorced a couple of years ago. He is a short, skinny, bald guy who is looking for the perfect woman this time..... She has to be a non smoker, no kids, no religous affiliation and thin. For some strange reason, he is having problems with women in their 40's meeting his expectations. :) I guess it isnt just the women looking for perfection.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Well, I know first hand what you are going through....
I was raised in a very old fashion, high moral, high respect Christian based type family where divorce is not in our vocabulary. I was told my whole time growing up that you get married only once, for life, so you better pick the right one the first time.

I did the dating thing for over 20 years, never seemed to find just the right one.
I finally met a lady from the Philippines and let me tell you, they are so wonderful.
I've been married 2 1/2 years now and she is a true dream come true.
Philippine women are raised in an old fashion Christian atmosphere.
I learned that these women look for is security, stability and maturity in a man, NOT money, hair and abs like most American women.
Material things mean nothing to my wife. We lead the simple life and couldn't be happier.
I'm sure not all of you may agree with me on this, but this is my experience and opinion on the matter.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I thought about dating other cultured (hope I'm using proper terminology) girls, just certain cultures that I don't see dating (part of what I was trying to say in the first post about the preferences), I haven't ruled that one out yet. If I had an opportunity I would probably date outside of mine. I know a couple of people married to philippino culture, my female cousin is married to a philippino man, a man down the road is married to a philippino woman. Heck when I worked at Tyson Foods I had a 40 year old married woman chasing after me, and she told me straight up that she would leave her husband for me. I already been through that mess before and don't feel like getting my but shot over it, I would like to live a while longer.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I feel your pain! I got divorced 14yrs ago at 48, an old man on the dating scene, the bar circuit didn't work for me, and as Gary said, I found online ads with obscene ads from guys, usually describing their genital size, and sites chock full of women looking for the "impossible dream", Talk about high expectations! and not wanting to settle for anything less, it's a joke, but not very funny. I thought it was pathetic. These same women probably broke up with a loser or "bad boy", chances are they'll end up with another loser, as much as they proclaim they want the perfect man, and the pattern repeats itself. That leaves the average good guy, dateless. They'd rather put you down, over any small defects, or if they think you're boring, drop you, then go date a guy that's exciting, then turns out to be "dangerously exciting" or abusive, then it's back to putting up an "untouchable" dating site ad, and wonder why there's no good guys out there?! Hello, wake up ladies, expand your horizons a bit!

Maybe you should get a motorcycle, and look dangerous (but really not be),,,lol,,, Hey sometimes it works, women usually swoon over guys with bikes.

Me, I got lucky, finally thru yahoo online yrs ago, but I also dated long distance out of my area Long Island (filled with female sharks). Good Luck and Hang in there, Mike

I've found most women that date these losers bad boys keep doing that. Then they complain that it is all the man's fault. Most of the single women in may area are like this. They just keep dating losers over and over.

I have a friend is married to a woman he met through some thing by mail. In his case, these women from the Philippines will marry you if you promise to bring them over here. He has been married to the woman he found by mail for almost 20 years now! It's all different now because of the internet. But, I was going to get around to asking him if that sort of thing still exists.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I agree about the " dating another culture" scenario.
It bothered me at first too,but then I realized that most modern American women were just too wild, free and materialistic for my old fashion up-bringing, I decided to do some investigating into other cultures. One of the best "pluss's" with Philippine women is they are taught to speak english all through school, so the language barrier is not there. They are a very loyal, dedicated people too.... and say nothing about they are absolutely beautiful ....

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I just took a quick browse through these "flirts" that I got on this one site. It's what these girls will send if they are not a paid member like me. I looked at this one girls profile and under age it said 28 you have to choose that from a drop down bar, under her description she had to type> she said she is 23 :eek:, you would think she would of fixed that or maybe she wants the guys guessing lol.

I didn't mention that the Xgirlfriend I mentioned in the first post (the one that just moved back), I heard it straight from her mouth "I got a boyfriend (he is a different culture by the way) he's in jail" :D:D. She can brag about that boyfriend all she wants to lol. "I got a boy friend he's in jail, I just want a friend" she said to me the last time I talked to her just a couple of days ago. I wasn't asking her out by any means never even hinted to it she just was thinking that I wanted to date her again. She was wondering why I haven't called her since the last time we talked (a month before), I told her I have my reasons and I left it at that no more said. I believe her boyfriend is in jail for theft or drugs I'm not for sure. Plus the last time we were around one another one of her kids got all excited and thought we were going to get back together. Just goes back to the girl wanting a bad boy deal like we have mentioned. I don't know why I can't get it through these relatives thick heads that "I don't want to be around the BEEEP", they want to trick me into coming down to there house when she's there, make me talk to her on the phone. It's like they are saying let us rub your face in it a little more, get you upset but I kept my cool, one of these days I'm going to snap.

Now you got me wondering about the "Adopt A Philippine Plan" :D :D, just joking lol that just came to mind sorry no offense intended. I don't know about bringing somebody over like that and expecting to marry them or them expecting to marry you. Don't even know one another that well or get to hang out with each other. I knew this one man from work (I thought there was something funny about him :rolleyes:), he was supposed to be marrying somebody from over seas, didn't even know them that long.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Alright, I'm gonna step out on a limb here so don't kill me. Your 28, live with momma and daddy, and don't have a job. You also expect to pick up a hot chick who is not crazy, doesn't have kids, and hasn't been married before? For some reason the picture stays fuzzy and will just not clear up for me.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

Ah, go to Maine I worked up there for a few weeks on a construction job, Many years ago, and heard that the ratio of women to men in a certain spot was 10 to 1! I wasn't sure what to believe, but all I knew is driving into town, all I happened to see, and stuck out in my mind, was young women pushing baby carriages (and figured there can't be that many babystters up here???) lol,,, Later on in the evenings, I found the bars filled with women, usually outnumbering the guys!

I'll be 28 in 3 more days. I was out on my own until the last girl came along and drug me down to h** with her. Pretty much became homeless because of her also, slept in my vehicle a many of times. To get personal about it, my credit screwed up thanks to her. I have land 1 to 2 acres in any spot I would like without paying a dime, It's all family around us, except for a few odd balls that live out of town like my brother and a couple of other relatives. If all the family would get along, none of us would have a want for a blessed thing. We even have our own family grave yard. Jobs are scarce around here right now, thinking about digging into the 401K to help get me by if my unemployment runs out. Thought about starting my own business, maybe in boat repair or ATV and motorcycle salvage, already helped a guy today with his boat he couldn't get the motor to stay running I got it running :) runs sweet to. I was permanently laid off from my last job due to lack of seniority back in May of this year, worked 3rd shift durring the years I worked there still adjusting to the day life. To tell you the truth I probably won't find a job that paid as good as what I made there, without going to college.

I was trying to seek help into going to college and or getting qualified as a disabled worker (witch ever came first) through the vocational rehab here at our local career center, so far they aren't much help. I am qualified as handi capped, they don't want to consider that as a restriction hmmm sounds dumb Isn't handi cap a restriction? It was marked that I can't walk more than 200 feet without stopping to wrest, witch is pretty much true. I started collecting my doctors records recently, found out the older ones didn't contain all the verble suggestions and restrictions that the doctor had mentioned, if I gathered the wrest of my records just from the handi cap problem I'll have a thick book. I got my reason's for being back home. I could of died a while back if not properly treated when I was, hospitalized for that, and surgeries for the other problem that is the cause of my handi cap, sucks. I haven't heard back from any of the jobs I have applied for in the past few months, even though I have followed up on them. My brother was the same age as me just moved down from NY years ago and was at home with use for a while met his wife when he was still living at home with "mom and dad" and moved in with her after a while got married. Living with mom and dad isn't my ideal plan, they don't get along, if I wasn't here they would probably of killed one another. I prefer getting me a mobile home moving it to my spot of land and settle in. In a nut shell, I'll get a job or I'll got to college one of the two, I can get a mobile home (have it setup for free most likely), I would like to find a girl (doesn't half to be a hot chick looks aren't everything)(just kind hearted), and I'm not looking for a sugar momma. What's is wrong with that?

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I flirt with all women all the time, 18 to 80, blind, cripple and crazy {now days I stay away from the crazy ones, not worth it} right in front of my girlfriend, I don't care. Got to keep in practice you know. A bird on your shoulder is a great chick magnet also. I have even had jobs where I basicly got paid for the way I looked and to flirt with women all day {actually got paid $10 an hour under the table}. Women pick me up, I don't pick them. And most of the time they pay for every thing. But when I'm with one I stay with that one till its over. I worked renaissance faires all across the country for 15 years and those are meat markets for women,,,and men. I've turned down more women than you've seen in those 15 years. Of course it helps when you walk around in about $1500 in costume and you look and play the part and know how to flirt. I'll give up one line. When you meet a woman with freckles tell her that a woman with out freckles is like a night with out stars. Told that to a college girl teller with 2 college dudes behind me and had the girl swooning all over me telling me how sweet I am. And I'm 50 years old. The college dudes jaws were draging the floor. I have fun,,,if you don't its your fault. The women are out there....ANIMAL :D P.S. Anyone that doesn't belive me hasn't been to a big renaissance faire.

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

When I drove cab for about a year I had a deal worked out with the girls that if I brought them a JOHN they would split the money with me. I also knew where all the crack houses were and the bootlegers and all the under current for the town {Muskogee, Oklahoma}. Was a lot of fun till I fell asleep one night and bounced off a police car. Cop was in bed so I pee'd on his tree before I woke him up because I knew when his buddys got there I was going to jail. Suspended license and driveing a cab. They loved me that night....ANIMAL :D

Re: Dating in the 21st century doesn't it blow

I have NO criminal records or background, OH I lied maybe a couple of speeding tickets :D, who hasn't gotten one of them. Back in my younger dumber days I have done some drinking and driving, never got caught never got in an accident (only when I was sober), figured I would quit trying my luck. I did go out to visit my cousin yesterday and drove not on public roads but through the trail way/road bed in the woods drunk. (First time I got that drunk in a while), I got home in one piece I can drive that trail way blind folded. Done some other stupid things also in the past.
