| | First of all, the facts of life.
Most women are on here because they are demanding, have extremely unrealistic expectations, and a total lack of commitment in a relationship.
That having been said;
If you have children and now you’re looking for your “soul mate”, family and commitment mean very little to you, don’t contact me.
In fact, if you're looking for your "soul mate" you are just chasing a dream that no man will ever be able to live up to, people will ALWAYS have differences, get real!
If you go on and on about what you don’t want and the fact that you’re not “going to settle” then, go on to say that you have no baggage or, issues…you DO have baggage and issues, again, don’t contact me.
If your emphasis is on finding someone that will “make you laugh” then, you’re not looking for a relationship, you’re looking for someone to serve and entertain you, don’t contact me.
If your only skills/interest is going to a club and dancing to rap/techno/hip-hop, don’t contact me.
And finally, tobacco is an extremely dangerous and addictive drug that kills approximately 450,000 people every year, if you smoke, you are a drug user, do not contact me.
Only interested in serious, intelligent, all around quality woman.
How to date a loser
By John DeVore (The Frisky) -- An objective, partially superficial analysis of women's magazines has led me to form the following conclusions on behalf of women:
Your date may not be perfect, but you're probably not either, according to the author.
• If you don't learn the 456 sex tips, he will cheat on you.
• You're not fat, girl! But here's a diet to try!
• You date nothing but losers -- and therefore have an insatiable appetite for articles about men being losers. "How Not To Date A Loser." "How To Detect A Loser." "How To Tell If Mr. Right Is Actually A Human Trojan Horse Filled With Thimble-Sized Losers."
The point is made: You ladies have dated lots of losers. But have you ever considered that maybe, sometimes, you are the loser yourself?
A "loser" seems to be defined as a person with a demonstrable character blemish. This blemish usually contradicts whatever your favorite lady mag tells you is admirable in a man, like granite counter tops, emotional over-availability, therapist-like listening skills, a generous bankroll, and killer style.
To which I say: Nuts. Consider the flipside. Hey, we live like frat boys, but maybe we don't want to live in a Bed, Bath & Beyond showroom. OK, we don't call, but maybe you call, text, instant message, and Facebook too much? Yeah, sure, we talk about ourselves a lot, but only during the brief moments of silence when you're not talking about yourself.
When women talk about men being losers, it usually means that the man doesn't live up to the standards of her fantasy. Much the way it is patently unfair for a man to judge a woman because she doesn't accurately reflect the absurd, airbrushed and Photoshopped women adorning men's magazines, it is unfair for women to write a man's superficial shortcomings off because he's not Mr. Sensitive-Rich-Hunk.
Whenever I read or talk to a woman about a recent loser or string of losers, I can't help but think about that old breakup canard, "It's not you, it's me." Maybe it's not him, it's you. Is he a loser, or are you projecting?
Which brings me to a bigger point: Really, we're all losers. We're all uniquely dorky snowflakes. Love, real love, is forgiving someone for being human. And being human is being a loser, an embarrassing, spectacular mess of contradictions, insecurities, and pimples. It's what makes us all so interesting.
Assuming that you are so put together that you're above criticism is self-deception, pure and simple. The world, and men, are not out to get you and only you. To be fair, the world is out to get us all. But playing the dating victim means that ultimately, you and your potential dates lose, and the only winners are relationship columns about indulging the impulse to wantonly judge others, while sparing yourself. We're all losers; live with it.
What gives a person character lies not how perfect they are, whether they are rich, stylish, or good-looking. It's about how they persist despite their flaws. Any worldview short of this is just shallow, fake self-esteem mumbo-jumbo. The sooner you accept your little defects, the sooner you can accept someone else's.
Abraham Lincoln once said, "If you look for the bad in people expecting to find it, you surely will." Same goes for losers. Don't go looking because you can find the loser in anybody, since losers are everybody.
Is narcissism keeping you single?
By Wendy Atterberry
(The Frisky) -- It's no secret that people are getting married later these days than in previous generations, and in this culture of hook-ups and "modern female dating anxiety," we're at no loss for theories that explain why.
Nearly 10 percent of twentysomethings report symptoms of narcissism, a survey says.
Some people say today's twentysomethings are delaying marriage to focus on careers and build close friendships instead, but another explanation paints a less flattering picture of young people.
Apparently, they're all just a bunch of narcissists. In an article on The Daily Beast this week, writer Hannah Seligson, explores this theory, writing: "narcissism, even in small doses, has shifted courtship into a high-stakes relationship culture.
Now that people think more highly of themselves, expectations of what a relationship should be like have skyrocketed into the realm of superlatives.
Twentysomethings not only expect to waltz into high-level career positions right out of college, they also expect partners who have the moral fortitude of Nelson Mandela, the comedic timing of Stephen Colbert, the abs of Hugh Jackman, and the hair of Patrick Dempsey." The Frisky: Does hooking up make us lonely?
But is it true that twentysomethings think more highly of themselves and have greater expectations for their lives than older generations did at their age? And, if so, is that such a bad thing? Seligson cites psychology professors W. Keith Campbell and Jean Twenge, authors of the book, The Narcissism Epidemic, who "chart the dramatic rise in the number of Americans who have a clinical narcissist personality disorder." The Frisky: Nine signs you're dating a narcissist
Surveying a wide representation of 35,000 Americans, they discovered that "nearly 10 percent of twentysomethings reported symptoms of narcissism, compared to just over 3 percent of those over 65." And in an age of confessional blogging, and constant Facebook and Twitter updates, that figure isn't hard to believe.
