this is not a rant, just something i think i see. i could be wrong, i have been in the past

ohkay, i've been on this site for more than a minute. i've read plenty of nice guy threads, why don't i get a response threads, i have no friends threads, i want a real man threads, etc

one thing i see is that ladies start threads about what kind of men they want or need. when you look at their profile, they have emotional baggage, kids, and all kinds of problems that they want a knight in shinning armor to come in a solve. BUT the knight can't be all about sex

sex is a part of a healthy relationship and news flash lady. you were willing to have sex with the wrong guy for years and even bear a child or two with him. he wouldn't pay your bills, or treat you like a princess, or do any number of things you wanted, but you would drop your panties for him

i guarantee i guarantee i can support myself, feed myself, entertain myself, and when push comes to shove, have sex with myself. BUT for some insane reason i am willing to share everything that is me with a used and abused woman, and i'm sure plenty of other guys on or off mingle have this same crazy idea

ladies, please don't make demands or set conditions on a potential new relationship because of failed prior relationships. wipe the slate clean and do what you really want in the first place. start a new life with someone you can be happy with

(bulldog double guarantee - patent pending)

WOW could not have said it better. not sure whats going on but i keep running it woman that have been beat down, and now iam the bad guy.have to prove who i am. never raised my hand to a woman in my life and never would, I guess this is online datings down side ?

Hell ya! Ese!!
My turn to start the clappin to "Rocky, Rocky" cheer.

You get the thumbs up
But don't expect any flowers.

much respect and admiration for all 3 of you gentlemen

As we have for you, Ana

your the best ANA.

Years ago, I dated a woman who constantly harped at me about crap that the previous men in her life had done. I stayed with her for more than a year, just to prove I wasn't those guys.
What a waste of time.
Should have just kicked myself in the gonads twice a day.

lol... i see the truth in it, and i see the humor in it

quite an empowering post

im sold on your double guarantee, even without the patent

A fresh start sounds good, forget the past, forget the exes, forget the drama and start from this day forward.....it's not fair to compare anyone new with what was, we need to accept potential partners for who they are now in order for a new relationship to have a chance to grow. You can't look back and expect to still move forward.

double kick to the 'nads and a poke in the eye on the way down to your knees for good measure is the way i like it. happens everytime
back at ya pancho, rocky rocky!

if someone refuses to see you for who you are and keeps looking for who you're suppose to be... no amount of "proving oneself" will change that...

lol... i see the truth in it, and i see the humor in it

thing is babygirl plenty men still haven't caught on the notion that if you keep doing the same thing over and over again expect a different result...

now you know why guys like me drink beer

(btw thanks for the on the bulldog double guarantee)

say babygirl, you wouldn't happen to have three sisters would ya?

well... i suppose it applies to all genders and people... in any relationship, you can't fault yourself for trying to prove your worth or the kind of person you are and are not... it somehow goes to show that you give importance to the relationship... but if the other person CHOOSES not to see past the should be's and ought to be's and can't see someone for the effort and the sincerity one is putting in the relationship... then, that's their loss...

of course, i'm speaking generally... soooo many aspects to relationships... i think mostly, it's a matter of values... what's important to both parties involved...

guys like you...? lol... whatever do you mean...?

I don't know man as soon as they start acting needy..and.. start in on their past relationships.. check please..lol.. seriously I don't have time.. to correct the past mistakes other men.. have done to them..
..... it's not my job to prove myself..
.... to them.. its my job to show them.
Who I am..... not compare myself to some other dude...

Nice thread Ese!

thanks bro. your opinion matters a lot to me. i know you know that i know that you know a thing or two about a thing or two. you've impressed me many times in the past, glad i could put a smile on your face this time

see bro, they don't even wait until they meet you. right on their profile they already have a terms and conditions list

go look around at a used car lot and see all the "as is" signs. not buy this car, but don't drive it signs

who could ever be mad at a bunny. even brer rabbit is well liked

I don't have the background of many of the women here. I have never been married, no children, and I am a strong person so I know what you wrote doesn't apply to me. But "used and abused women"? I am offended for the ladies who struggled in failed marriages and raising children in this day and age. Kindly choose your words carefully so you don't come off bitter, frustrated and angry.
