Well before that time, I had given up on men altogether. The one thing I can't handle are liers and cheaters. I am a good person, with a big heart, wanting the same, honesty, loyalty, where trust is not an issue, and falling in love is beautiful and can lead to a lasting commitment; when that someone made promises, I gave him my whole, my heart, my friendship and my love and;. we even made plans, then all of a sudden, I get the shaft. He's all of a sudden confused and doesn't know what he wants. I'm sorry but why did he even say what he did- don't say it, if you can't stand behind those feelings, promises - and step up and be a man about what you want in life, don't run. then, when you try to communicate and you are put on voicemail, that is another cute trick. He runs, can't talk either. And he's the one who wanted to always be able to talk anything out, solve anything together. I became a girlfriend of convenience. what a crock I say, is there anyone out there that is not a gameplayer like this jerk? someone who will say what they mean and mean what they say, not stand up their so called girl friend, not lie and cheat, not use or abuse me or our so-called "relationship". not hide behind their cellphone, or make a fool out of me any longer.is there anyone real, who I can plan a future with who I can trust with my heart again because believe it or not, I truly believe there must be someone who feels the same as I who is sick of the bar scene, who is my age and have had it with all the "confused" men who want their cake and eat it too out there; I want a best friend, loving caring individual who is real and loyal and honest who accepts me for me and vice versa who I can have fun with and enjoy life with and who is also interested in commitment, not scared to death of it. Cause, as you have seen with some matches, it can be a beautiful thing. and yes it does exist, I'm just meeting the wrong guys - I've been going to clubs and this is why I've decided to try online dating. So hopefully, my mr. right is out there. I am divorced and a yr. ago thought I had met the man of my dreams. Well before that time, I had given up on men altogether.

We had learned the word emaciated in class...and my teacher asked a girl to use it in a sentence. Her sentence was " I wish I could be more emaciated." Is that what you want us to think about ourselves? I for one knew the word beforehand, and was horrified by her response...and after showing her a picture of what it looked like...more girls promptly agreed and wished they were "emaciated" as well. Later on that year...an overweight girl committed suicide. In her note to a friend it basically had said she will live and die alone anyway, so why wait. Sure being obese is unhealthy but putting them down and isolating them from society isn't going to fix it. As a teenage girl…It’s because of guys like Tim that more of us are becoming anorexic.

People aren't only skinny or fat. I myself am twenty four, 5'8 and 145 pounds, perfectly healthy. I don't consider myself fat OR skinny, but I'm fine. I have dated guys who have been with skinny girls and say that (in the sex department) a little more can bet better. Why not? Ever seen Christina Hendricks on Mad Men? It may just be the 1960's, but that's what men loved, and many still do. Men may not be automatically attracted to "fat" girls or "skinny" girls, or maybe they are. But overall, it's thin, curvy, beautiful, and smart that win the most. And for those forty something bald guys in this thread who just hunt for sex, GROW UP. Try meeting a girl for her personality, getting into a real relationship, and be nice to her. You'll have better sex with somebody you love then some stranger anyday, and you'll be happier too.

I live in San Diego, and the system only returned 6 matches, half of which did not match with me at all. I have had good success with other sites, so thought I would try this since I had not found "the one yet." The problem is that not enough people are using this site, as it is expensive, and designed so you cannot really see what you are getting before you pay. Also, I find the "one answer" questions really frustrating and misleading. They ask questions that require more of an answer than yes/no, and put 50 character limits on questions that need to be elaborated on. For an "indepth" service, you would think they would expand this a little. Frankly, I get more insight from other dating online services. I am really disappointed in this service.

I'm a 50 year old woman with a double doctoral degree (philosophy and astro-physics) and I can't seem to keep a man past the 1st date. It seems that I'm unable to relate to these guys on a human level. My brain just behaves in a way that seems to intimidate all these guys. I think the best advice to any 50 year old women out there just to calm down a bit, maybe (dare I say) be a bit subservient and perhaps we should take them as they come. Anyhow, you seem to do a good job relating some of your thoughts so please keep your anecdotes coming as they do help me cope. Sincerely, Lydia Hello Karen,

Not all of us are. It takes integrity to remain faithful, but integrity nowadays is not viewed as innately sexy because truth doesn't sell: Sexy make-believe does. People usually want to believe in fairy-tales, not the real thing, so when you go out willing to swallow fairy tales from yet another smooth-talker and shy away from those of us who are straight shooters, don't be surprised if you end up with a cheater. I'm amazed how many times folks are willing to overlook obvious fibs on the first date if the guy/gal is cute enough. Two: To all who excuse cheating because people get "stuck" in loveless relationships, that, too, is your fault. Either you picked a scumbag to begin with, or you do not understand love. Love is a feeling YOU are responsible of feeding and nurturing towards others. You may have the greatest and most romantic partner in the world, but you are in charge of what you feel and if you don't know how to love him/her, you'll fall out of love and find yourself "stuck". "Stuck" in a relationship, with few exceptions, is your own fault, so trying deflecting the blame for cheating only makes you more a douche bag.

Thank you so much for all your comments. I'm glad that I am not the only one here who thinks that men should just say the truth right from the beginning instead of leaving us confused and wondering. I would rather hear the truth about them not being interested in me and get a little hurt, than waiting stupidly to see what happens. On the other hand, I appreciate the author for reassuring me why women are more intelligent than men. When we are not interested we just say it and that's that.

Yes I know there are close calls and slip-ups but when the sun goes down and you head back to your ranch, there's only one person you can rely on. Okay two people, yourself and your loved one. So while these cheating warning signs may be real, the bigger question to Mr. Hot guy here is, why do people cheat? Put that in your relationship pipe n' smoke it. :) Well “hot cali guy” sounds like you speak from experience? :) I’ve often wondered why someone would go to all the trouble to cheat on their significant other rather than simply breaking up?

Everyone looks for something different in the opposite sex. Be yourself on a date and if the other person is into that.. great. If not, it wasn't meant to be. Don't spend your time trying to avoid these reasons and "red flags". Because then you are not being yourself, and a relationship doesn't work if one or both people are trying to be something they're not.

I just went through a breakup with a guy I was dating for 5 months. I knew something was wrong when he started seeing me less and less a few weeks back but it got to the point where he stopped calling me and didn't return my phone calls. I went to his place to confront him and he didn't answer his door (even though I knew he was there). So after three days of calling, sending emails and writing I've given up. After 5 months it would have at least been nice to get a phone call. Thanks for posting this Karen. I just went through a breakup with a guy I was dating for 5 months.

Just because someone is single over 40 doesn't mean there's some major problem. Contract marriage is just a tradition based (supposedly) on Bronze Age myths anyway.

Unfortunately I can't change the fact that nearly every girl I've ever known dates guys who treat them like shit instead of me. I still don't know why I try to be nice to them but it doesn't matter.

Sometimes, it pisses the guy off because he wants to take it slow, then BOOM! All of a sudden, he's in love, and he can't say anything because it's creepy?! wtf? It's not the male community that fantasizes about love at first sight, and yet, when it actually happens, girls are being told to break up the guy! That's total BS.

While it has become socially acceptable to use an online dating site in this day and age, I have run into people who view still online dating sites with contempt or even mockery. <em>"Why would I need to stoop down to an online dating site to find someone to date?"</em> is the usual response that I get. Turns out more often than not, those people don't have a Facebook profile, they aren't into using Twitter and rarely if ever check their emails. In regards to your first point, I think Facebook should come up with some sort of verification system that goes above and beyond "picture approval" that you see on most online dating sites out there. I personally am a bit "sketch" on guys I meet on online dating sites who don't have a Facebook or Myspace profile. I want to see a glimpse into their personal lives....see if I can tell anything about them from what their friends are writing and what they are writing about themselves. Online dating profiles to me seem a bit "canned" at times....everyone seems picture perfect with their best foot forward (and that's how it should be). Call me a sadist, but I want to see a glimpse of my potential date at his worst. A good friend of mine who is a strong businessman gave me some really great advice when it comes time to interview someone for a job: <em>"You already know the good things about the person you are interviewing. It's all laid out in their resume and they are coming off like a shining star in the interview. It's what you don't know about them that could hurt you. You want to see this person at their worst or under duress in order to accurately gauge their performance on the job."</em> He makes a good point. When things are going smooth, everyone is all gumdrops and sunshine. It's when the little road bumps come along that we truly can see what kind of person we are dealing with. The same in business as the same in online dating. Your online dating profile is your resume. Let's try and wade through some of the bullshit and see just who we are dealing with here.

I have a friend who met someone on facebook and travelled from the west coast to the east coast to meet. They turned out 10 years older than their facebook picture and 3 hours late at the airport to greet them. Not too cool and a wasted trip and money. From a guy's point of view there might be a bit of trepidation sharing with everyone that he's using facebook as an online dating service. We'll see. Thanks for the write up.
