| Jegs, I agree with you saying that men maybe be more 'desperate'.
I think it might be due to traditional roles in which men are supposed to make the first move and women supposed to wait for them to make it - now I look at that I change my mind. Men SEEM more desperate due to this because we are more likely to be seen to be doing the chasing? I've always thought that men and women as a whole should be more obvious and honest about their feelings. I used to be that way, but my last relationship dampened that a little (both his and my fault this happened) and I'm now seeing how hard it can be to put your feelings out there with the fear that you will get shot down by someone you hope to invest a lot in. |
Not quite Chooch, its because the traditional roles are no more. Womenkind have moved the goalposts and a lot of men, especially my age, cant come to terms with it. Not sure all women are totally happy with it.
Deep down most men still want the little women in the house, and the way things used to be. Not sure how younger men feel about this. Problem with that is it'll mean no career women, the way it used to be.
If I was going to stick my neck out, I would say men are a bit more desperate, and women are a bit more confused. Of course I'm generalising and probably isn't true of all men and women. But its what I've observed of people on these type dating sites.

Theres one good thing about the terminal loners, natural selection will sort that little problem out in the long run. |
Good luck mate, I hope you find what you're looking for one day.

I never said it was better to be alone... I just said that if you're alone you shouldn't bloody kill yourself... I mean ffs. It's not like you come out of yer mamma's thing with a soul mate... Hello? If you were meant to be completely and utterly attached to someone, speaking of attachement... You'd already have them attached. We are social beings because we live in a society, not because we were born this way (yea, disagree  )... There's far too much to speak of on this theme... And I'm not encouraging being in a couple nor being single, just to be completely clear. I'm just saying you shouldn't go mad if you're not in a couple as well as if you are in one. I mean really... REA LLY. Gosh...
FFS. MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr... Oh and how do you know what I know anyway?  |
I am new to being single and can not remember a time when I did not have a partner I did not see it coming and it has sorta kinda blind sided me. My first reaction was find someone to fill the void so I could get back on with my life. I deserve someone and need someone.
Its now been six weeks and my views are changing yes I need friends, many who I have lost over the years, yes I need a cuddle, but do I really need to go hunting??
I thought so, thats why I joined this site and a couple of others.
Now well yes I still need a cuddle, but do I really need to go hunting, the answer is no, my life is changing at a huge rate of knots and I don't know if thats good or not, however I know searching for the right person is pointless at this point.
I even went to see a film myself last night and enjoyed it, apart from having to pay for the ticket and the popcorn!!
So Bliss I guess I am trying to say I agree with you and we all crave someone, because thats what we are expected to do, but it does not need to be like that.
Sorry for my rant
