    meh !

    (all the good ones are married or gay)

    except me ...I'm in a committed relationship to my GF (who is snoring upstairs) will propose to her in a few months.... just saving money to get the ring she wants.

    Are you looking for long term, or just a good knobbing?

    Do you take it up the back valve?

    probably because you are looking for the 'perfect' one
    lower the standards and adapt

    Don't worry, it's just Evolution by Natural Selection ... ;)

    Look beyond the obvious? I presume you've watched every episode of Sex and the City several times and learned from their mistakes. Rejecting men for superficial reasons, playing hot and cold, obsessing on little flaws, then wondering "where have all the good men gone?"

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Throw away the ticklist and be realistic, boys are human as well!

    The good ones will bore you to tears and then you'll be complaining about that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    I found my good one on Boards. Seem to be plenty of eligible men right here in this thread.

    Take your pick.

    I might be suitable. Where can I drop my CV?
    Do you require a cover letter for this role?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,474 ✭✭✭Crazy Horse 6


    Stop watching shows like sex and the city and thinking it's real life. Men fart,****,leave the jacks seat up,pick their nose etc..all the time.

    When you become the perfect woman, then go looking for the perfect man
    I hate all this, the people who post on FB going "If you cant handle me at my worst, then you dont deserve me at my best" ****e.

    If I need to 'handle you' at your worst, then **** off, I just cant be arsed.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,023 ✭✭✭Fukuyama


    Maybe start by not thinking you're perfect and deserve this God of a man?

    I doubt he exists... and if he does he's riding someone waaayyy more attractive than you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,333 ✭✭✭jonnyfingers


    This thread reminds me of a single friend of mine. She signed up to match.com to find a man and the first words on her profile were "I'm a strong, independent woman who isn't afraid to speak her mind."


    She has had no interest so far. :D

    That's cause this is how most men would read it.

    Exactly. Except she's actually gorgeous looking, has a great rack and earns a **** load of money. Unfortunately she's not the most fun person.

    I suggested she change her profile pic to one of just her boobs. At least that would get her a few dates and she might be able to trap a man before he realises her true personality!

    dont look for one......a good guy will pursue you ;-) But im not talking about sweaty turks that hassle women in QBar etc lol

    What makes them unsuitable??

    Are we talking "Oh he turned out to married with 3 kids" or are we talking "Oh he sometimes wears white socks, I hate white socks" levels of unsuitable?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,952 ✭✭✭Lando Griffin


    My OH is very lucky and has found her perfect man.
    He cooks beautiful dinners, gets breakfast in bed for her at weekends, respects her opinions, and is truthful and honest when she asks "how do I look in this?"
    Also a keen walker and old romantic, he is liable to burst into rhymn at any moment.
    An avid sportsman who when whatever sport he plays from darts to pool and football, dedicates victory to the one he loves, and bemoans loss.
    A keen humanatrian, he will watch such documentaries as "The girl with two heads", "Pregnant and Impaled", "Pregnant and Obesse" or "The man who turned into a tree"
    Its not every day men like this turn up at your doorstep.

    3 words for you:

    match dot com

    Better than taking a pot shot at someone in a bar in the unlikely event that they are in any way interested/wanting any kind of relationship.

    Enjoy

    No!- Women want you to lie about this.

    Sorry to hear your OH has found someone else. Still, plenty more fish in the sea.

    Online dating makes me sad.

    How about go join a club that does something you're interested in, photography, sports, creative writing, anything really. Chances are there will be other members of that club that have a shared interest. There may be some you are attracted to. Already you have a shared interest so there's a starting point. As you get to know this person and spend more time with them they might be a pretty good match for you.
    Before you know it, Bam! you're in a relationship.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,431 ✭✭✭Sky King

    Yeah totally. Or like this:
    "I'm a strong, independent woman who isn't afraid to speak her mind spa."

    Edit: I would imagine women looking for 'their perfect prince' don't get much attention either. I reckon if a girl says 'I'm easy goin and always up 4 de ride' she would enjoy excellent success and be able to chose a mate from the tens of prospective ones that contact her as a result of how excellent her profile is.

    That's why I'm not a fan of online dating. i don't think it's natural to describe yourself in 80 words or less. You'll always sound like a tool. Meeting people in person and getting to know them is still the best way I feel.

    How to find a good man?
    Online. Seriously! Worked for me :)
    Just keep away from dating sites- men there seem to be either married or creepy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,865 ✭✭✭Mrs Garth Brooks


    I wanted to impress a man last year. Some one on boards suggested giving him steak and a blow job ... don't, it doesn't work. He'll take advantage of you.

    Get a puppy instead.

    You sir, are a true friend. She's lucky to have you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,678 ✭✭✭I Heart Internet


    The idea of online dating (done right) IS to meet someone in person. In fact, if you don't and spend forever chating via the interweb it's a waste of time.

    See someone you might like online - they like you - have a pint or lunch with them - take it from there.

    If they're a muppet move on.

    I should declare an interest - I'm marrying a girl I met online (match) in a couple of months.

    Seriously - can't reccommend it highly enough.
