Thank you! That is what I have been trying to tell these guys. Girls like you are out there. Rare, but you do exist. They need to seek you out and forget about those airheads who think jerks are sexy.

What is wrong with girls?

Absolutely nothing. They just think differently than guys do but if you just take the time to look at things from their perspective, you'll find that girls just want to be loved too. In fact, love means even more to women. It makes them feel safe and wanted. All women are deserving of that.

I agree!!
I don't get guys because our thoughts are biologically different, but I'm learning, and you can too :D

Yep.

Anyone can learn if they just take the time. Women just want to be loved, exactly like guys do. Nothing wrong with them at all.

First of all, I hereby give a cyberhug to everyone on this post who is hurt, or to anyone who just wants a hug.

Second, I shall answer the question. Everything. In my personal opinion, girls (especially teenage ones) are some of the most selfish, shallow people on the planet. Not that there aren't exceptions (such as myself :wink: ). But for the most part, I find them dispicable. Pardon my misogyny.

Oddly enough, I don't know any girls who find the "gangsta" look attractive.

Personally, in terms of "persona" I like guys who dress decently (no underwear showing, please!) and who preferably have long hair and brown eyes. The second two are just preferences, the first is a requirement.

However, I'm really a sucker for a guy who just pays a lot of attention to me, flirtatious or otherwise.

All of this on my opinions is just to let y'all know that not ALL females are the same, just most are. :)

Yes, that is a huge part of the issue.

We're all prisoners of our biological wiring. But we can choose to work ethically around that.

I recently gave e-harmony a trial run. I was disappointed. Even though I specified a love of reading, (Bibliophile is my middle name) and stressed my interest in men that shared that trait, they kept offering matches that didn't care about books. And even though I specified non-drinkers, they kept offering matches who drank "socially." sigh.

As for the gangsta look, I have always been repulsed by it, as well as bad language, fronting, and posturing :x I am attracted to clean cut, geeky guys with good language skills, a love of reading, and an insatiable appetite for learning.

Ha! Looks like I'm not missing anything then. P.O.S. site wouldn't even try to match me... said I was too unique. Ha! I had a feeling they were overblown, considering their program doesn't try any harder than that.

Unable to Match You at This Time

eHarmony is based upon a complex matching system developed through extensive research with married couples. One of the requirements for successful matching is that participants fall within certain defined profiles. If we find that we will not be able to match a user using these profiles, we feel it is only fair to inform them early in the process.

We are so convinced of the importance of creating compatible matches to help people establish happy, lasting relationships that we sometimes choose not to provide service rather than risk an uncertain match.

Unfortunately, we are not able to make our profiles work for you. Our matching model could not accurately predict with whom you would be best matched. This occurs for about 20% of potential users, so 1 in 5 people simply will not benefit from our service. We hope that you understand, and we regret our inability to provide service for you at this time.

Oh please juliekitty, pleeaaaase. For kitties's sake stop shouting ONLINEDATING in every thread just because it worked with you and with your fiancee. Most of us had a waste of time with ONLINEDATING, it is not a recommended way for guys (but very recommended for girls). Tell me, when was the last date that your fiancee got through online dating before he met you?

And oh stop shouting DANCING too, most of us don't like dancing, it is not bad to learn new things in life but we can't force ourselves to like a hobby that we don't like.

I met my wife at www.uol.com.br. If you don't want to travel to South America, enter the chat area "Brasileiros no exterior". There are similar sites for Mexicans and Colombians. Fluently learn Spanish and Portuguese.

Yes, taking up space to hurl unfounded personal insults is hijacking. What i had to say was completely relevant to the thread. If offering critical information and being concerned about the welfare of teens here is "high-handed" then i gladly plead guilty.

I really have to wonder how much of all this "expert advice" (juliekitty's and all the PMs) has come from people who know a thing about parenting or even the types of teens who will post on these boards. My guess is nearly nil.

Once again, thanks to all who steered clear of extreme advice based on a mostly fictional rant and offered what was truly being sought.

(Yes, i changed my mind.)

You know perfectly well I've been pushing OL-D since way before I got engaged.

If you're going to use the passive voice, at least attribute it.

It's not recommended by YOU.

I haven't asked the exact day of the last one, but I know he did date others that way.

And, you still haven't given me a cogent reason why guys shouldn't at least try it when it can be free, and it expands the range of possibilities not only within their own towns, but over the world.

Those who hate dancing and will never try it can ignore me.

Those who don't hate dancing and might try it, may be convinced to try it.

I personally can't think of a more effective way to meet a bunch of girls all at once, and get to talk to and touch them all!

Plus, women love a guy who dances.

Bottom line: I'm gonna keep recommending both! :P
