From my point of view, the D-bag is running the dating show. Women, as much as they say they want a nice guy, want a "straight forward" guy. I have a few "friends" that call it "Sport F___ing". They aren't in relationships, yet, they spend very few nights alone.

I try to respect women. I have a career (on hold for the moment...), a car, a house...a life. I hold doors. Please and thank you. Dress nice...... and its amazingly difficult for me to find women to date.

I'm not at all interested in "Sport F___ing". I prefer quality over quantity. But, with the amount of women my friends get, sometimes I wonder if girls really want what they say they want. Every single profile on Cupid says they want "A guy with a job, a house, a car, supports themselves"...yet, they go home with D-bags, and ignore the guy with everything they say they want.

What gives?

They want guys that are hot looking. I'm not suggesting that you're not. But women have sexual desires like men do...and this is the 10's after all. Women can now support themselves, run companies and even run for president. It's no longer the hunt for someone to support them.

If they have both...are hot looking...and can equally add as a partner to a relationship...the world of women will be open to them.

My current (and 2nd marriage) involved bringing kids to the relationship...she had 4 from her 1st marriage; I had 4 from my first marriage. Blending those families together took a lot of work, and while they still feel like two separate families, her kids have grown to accept me as their stepfather (one even calls me her father!) and mine have grown to accept my wife as their stepmother.

Kids bring a different dimension to the relationship...for the new partner, as well as the child, as they vie for the girlfriend...and the mother's...attention. Add in any dealings with the child's other parent, and sometimes it becomes more than they bargained for in a relationship.

Having just 1 makes it much more manageable...but if he brings kids to the relationship, the work becomes exponential. Love can certainly overcome it all...but it will take work and time. Good luck.

I see your point but what about love at first sight? I feel that I am old fashion at times myself. I met my wife at a BBQ when I came to visit Vegas over 4 years ago before going to Korea. We waited for each other until I physically moved to Vegas...Been together ever since. Whether we had sex right away or not is not even an issue. We met and knew that we were meant to be.

These days everyone is impatient. Our news is instant, our food is instant, messages instant, Google gives us quick info, GPS helps us with directions without driving around getting lost, hold conversations online instead of with the next door neighbor ...you gett the picture. So basically why would someone wait around for the possible but no guarentee of the right person?

People want everything right now. Jobs, money and sex.

Hurry up and find your partner before its too late.

Sounds like an in-law of mine. She feels that since she has purchased her own house, car and is a nurse she can not settle for anything less when it comes to a man. Looks included...especially a muscular body type.

We debate about it all the time. I try to hook her up but she is just to damn picky. I joke that she will be single all her life.

lol

That's what I mean. What they say they want isn't really what they go after......

But that's not a new development

I think this is true.

Women hunt men like men hunt women. They have their own cars, houses, jobs, and don't want someone to support them.....which takes my entire game away HAHA


Back in Denver, I had no trouble finding women. I'm not a "one night stand" guy, but I dated a lot. Here, the scene is MUCH more different. ITs just weird to me because, most of us aren't from here. I was raised with "old fashioned" values, and I know most of the people that live here now were raised with them too. There are a lot of "mid-western" people here. Did they just forget about being polite, or honest, or "real"?

I'm not saying everyone here is like that. I love living here, and have met a ton of really great people. A ton of really great MARRIED people . Seems like if you're worth having, you're already married, and if you're not, you're single.

Las Vegas is the least "real" place I would consider on earth. Not just the facade of the casinos, but also of its people.

I find the women in Vegas way less superficial than certain areas of socal. Orange County is/was filled with gold diggers and half the female population over 30 had a fake rack.

Here in Vegas you have your jaded cocktail waitresses and strippers, but they're everywhere. It really depends on where you're meeting these women. If you want a party girl, go to the clubs.

Wish I would have met you years ago. Most of the women I know would die to meet a man like you. They are out there. And, trust me, looks are not the most important thing to all women. The connection is. There has to be a chemical attraction. The physical attraction is for one nighters.

But I don't want a party girl....

Actually, I don't mind being single right now. Yeah, it would be nice to have someone to go to shows, movies and dinner with, but at the same time, its freeing to experience the city on my own. You seem to notice more when you don't have any distractions.

What, you don't know these women anymore?
