Are there ANY men out there still interested in serious relationships?
I have been reading the threads on this board, reflecting on my own experiences as well as those of friends and relatives. My question is in earnest. This is not intended to bash anybody.
Between the guys who monoplize your time for months and then play the "just friends" card, the plethora of severe charachter flaws and I am not talking about minor stuff (depression, bi-polar disorder, panic attacks, alcohol problems, jail time, abuse of ex-spouses), no show wonders, and players just interested in sex dating seems to be a HOPELESS business.
Are there no men out there looking for a serious relationship? If there are, where the heck are they hiding? Am I wrong in thinking that this shouldn't be so difficult.

What is OW? Sami, why do you think that men aren't into serious relationships? Is it a case of "Why buy a cow if you can get milk for free?" Have women shot themselves in the foot by not sticking with old fashioned values?

The one thing all these men have in common is that you chose them for some reason or another. Maybe you need to reassess your criteria for the men you choose to go out with. I have a number of male friends who are fairly normal and yet have trouble finding women to date.
No. When you weren't looking, all the men on the planet got together and had a meeting and decided that from then on, they only want sex and to mess with women's heads. Sorry.
What would give you the silly idea that almost no men in the world are looking for serious relationships? It sounds as though you have just been running into the wrong type of man, no doubt because you have been actively seeking out those types of men. Most women do not want the nice guys who are interested in providing caring relationships.
As to where they have been? All around you, the entire time.

so true FAUX. I know some men who are sorta nerdy "nice guys" who would give their left testicle to have a relationship with a decent female. Unfortunately very few average women are interested in these guys.
And forget about the attractive women, they are all running after good looking, rich, bad boy types.

I am DEFINITELY not into the bad boy type so I am not seeking such losers, turst me. I didn't talk about all the men in the world. Let's just stick witih North America. Have you read some of the threads on here?
