I'm with the 3 ladies and why don't men call

I know in my past I haven't dated a lot, in fact I didn't start dating till I was 21 and I had a wide range of dates.  Just recently I have noticed that when I do meet a guy for a date I think it went ok, and yes I'm nervous but I don't think them not calling me or leaving me an email telling me that "hey I had a great time but you are not my type lets just be friends".  I had one guy after our first date email 5 days later to say "He as you probably figured out this just won't work.. I wish you the best"...   Come on, one date tells you all this? heck I was just trying to figure him out after one date and he did pick the one place in my home town that everyone goes to so yes I was a tad uncomfortable being there as I knew most of not all the people in the resturant. 

  

So what is up with me?  if anyone has any answers I would love to hear them.

Totally agree

Quote From: cash315

Dr. Phill, 

Why is it that all of the singles you use on your show are skinny and very attractive?  I know that physical appearance is important however, there are plenty of singles out there that are attractive but may not be skinny or the fitness type.  I am sick of people saying that in order to find a match you must not be overweight.  Why can't people learn to stop being so superficial and realize there is more to a person than their physical size? 

I wonder also Dr. Phil.  I know you keep saying over and over that  many people are not happy if they are overweight.  But I agree with this person as why is it when you do the Dating Islands and help with dating tips your ladies are always on the thin side and so are the men.  Please explain why this is?  I was taught that it's what is on the inside that counts not what the outside is all about.  I would like to find a man who sees me for the real me on the inside and not only what is on the outside.

04/05 Loving Dumb

Quote From: jim1970

It's nothing with you, personally.  This has happened as a result of 35 years of feminist B.S. 

  

Here's what we have learned through the years: 

  

1.  If we call right away, we are considered "clingy" and are immediately written off. 

2.  If we confess our feelings right away, women "get scared". 

3.  If we pretend you don't exist, YOU WANT US. 

1. If he would have called right away I wouldn't have considered him clingy nor any other guy. 

2. Confessing your feeling right away might scare some but not all so take a chance. 

3. Of course we want you if you pretend we don't exsist, heck if a women does it to a man he is usually after her panting cause it's something he isn't allowed.

I will so second that one

Quote From: ddkkssca

Get over our "Cinderella complex"!  

  

FYI - Cinderella was written by a MAN!  As was Sleeping Beauty. 

  

So maybe men should be the ones to "get over it" and stop thinking that all women do is sit around waiting for them and therefore, don't have to take any responsibility for their actions. After all, women want out of life is a man. 

  

It's a man's fantasy, not a women's. 

  

Charles Perrault (January 12, 1628May 16, 1703) was a French author who laid foundations for a new literary genre, the fairy tale, and whose best known tales include, La Belle au bois dormant (Sleeping Beauty), Cendrillon (Cinderella), Perrault's most famous stories are still in print today and have been made into operas, plays, films and animated motion pictures by, among others, The Walt Disney Company

I totally agree.  Why is it that men think women have this complex and that complex.. Most of the men I have seen around my home town have complexes of themselves just as much.

I don't have a problem asking a guy out for coffee or maybe lunch, what I have a problem with is they shoot me down without a "beg your pardon".

 

Most fairy tales if not all were written or thought up by man.  I do believe that men wish women were more like the women they write of.

 

As for the great man shortage, I know for sure that Alaska doesn't have that many men and those that we do have are not to bad (even if all they want are the barbie type females.).

Not sure what to think of online dating...

I have tried eharmoney.com and nothing, I tried true.com and lots of lookers were looking at my page but nothing to write home about.. I tried BBW Personals.com, well I can only say most men were either old enough to be my dad or young enough to be my younger brother or even son.  

I have met online thru BBWPersonalPlus.com a couple of men, but ladies let me fore warn you, there are some snakes. One man claimed he was from Florida and he was opening a art gallery, his picture was great he had a beautiful house, boat  and was willing to come to my home state and visit, only catch was he went to England and then Nigeria for art work to buy (didn't tell me this till he was in England), oh but it gets better he the went to Nigeria and wouldn't you know it, he ran out of money and only had money orders which no bank over there would cash and he needed money to ship his artwork home or lose it.. Couldn't I help??  

The other man I met was thru True.com,  he too claimed to live in the U.S in fact in Virginia and he was originally from the U.K and in fact still held his British Passport and was over here on a work Visa I presume.  Well he went to Nigeria to do stocks and something else, well he too needed a little financial help, it would seem he had a bit of a fender bender and he just didn't have any money in which to pay for the repairs except he had money orders and supposedly a few American Express Travelers Cheques.. and yes you guessed it, no body in Nigeria would cash the Traveler's Cheques or the money orders couldn't I please help him.  Told him to go to the British Consulet.    

So it would seem I attrack those looking for a weak person to prey on..  So ladies and Gentleman who are surfing thru those personal ad websites, please be careful for you never know what you might catch.

I so agree with you

Quote From: wintterose

I tried BBW and I m 57 but the men on there aren't much from what I've seen.  I am a little overweight and men seem to think we are weak or desperate for a man and will do whatever it takes to keep one.  They are Mr. Wrong!  Maybe we don't have a good metabolism but we aren't desperate.  The BBW's in this world want love and respect just like our counter parts, petite miss..we have respect for ourselves and want respect in a relationship.  As far as the guys looking for financial help I hope you reported them to the site management.  They can be removed and even possibly the authorities.    Good Luck in your search..Don't give up, I'm not going to...

I totally agree with you.. it seems that most if not all men that see an overweight woman think they are weak and /or desperate.  I know so men who are on the heavy side and not many people think of them as weak or that overly desperate.  I find it so hard to love and respect myself when I feel constantly judged from everyone.  

As for the gentlemen they both unregistered with BBW personal Plus and True.com so there was no way to report them. 

Sending a prayer up for all us BBW's and BBM's.

Your not the only one Dee Dee

I have met a few men online and surprisingly they are "from the US" only they are over in the UK or in Nigeria suppoedly for work or business and now they need money or an empty cc to transfer funds into so then I can pay their bill and then they can come home.

Come on, if you are a business man and you are overseas on business you make sure you have enough funds to do what you need to do and come back home.

I totally am so sick of the men that are praying on the women out there who are looking for someone to befriend or maybe more.

Use caution  when surfing the sea of online ads.  I know I have and always will.
