Bells Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Would you say any screen name with the word "goddess" or "princess" in the suffix/prefix is a turn off for you? Granted, some women are hot, but would you say referring yourself as some kind of royalty or ficticious god is a reflexion of how seriously arrogant or stuck on themselves they really are? An Example: Like I saw "Asiangoddess" in one screenname, and for a whole paragraph she is explaining about how she is always asked of what asian descent she is from. Sounds like she's stuck on herself due entirely to her ethnicity. Like "Yeah we get it , you get emails from guys constantly asking you what your ethnicity is , and why they're attracted to it. So, I thought there was kind of a "hint" there that there's an aspect of her traits that she seems into (into herself). Would you move onto the next profile if you saw such screen name?
torranceshipman Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I wouldnt psychoanalyse too much-maybe she is proud of her ethnicity, or just had fun choosing a screen name! Girlslike allt hat princess stuff...Or maybe you are right, she could be up herself but you wont know unless you get to know her...I wouldnt be so judgemental from something as superficial as a screen name (unless it was really freaky and excessive and scary of course!!!-but not seen one of those yet!) Dont know what you'd think of my screen name-its a head cheerleaders name from a movie maybe many would find that annoying but I like it so who cares!
Krajt Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 If any woman comes to me thinking they're a Goddess or a Princess is in for an almighty shock, because I'll treat them like peasantry. I do it deliberately, I dated one girl who thought she was a Goddess for around two months and in that two months, I made her life a misery.
Meaplus3 Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Your probably reading into it to much. "Princess" and "Godess" are common words that some girls like to use. If I were you, I'd give her a chance. If it works fine. If not move on to the next profile. Good luck. AP:)
Treasa Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Is there a possibility that the name is slightly sarcastic? Meaning, maybe she's tired of always being known as "Asian" rather than Korean or Filipino or Japanese or whatever she actually happens to be.

JohnnyBlaze Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 A girl using the name Princess or Goddess wouldn't turn me off from the name alone. To me, it's often just a sign that she's comfortable in her skin. I dig that. Generally, they don't really see themselves as princesses or goddesses. Using your Asianprincess example, I wouldn't read too much into it. Especially in a culture where Caucasian guys have a thing for Asian women, she's probably just sick of people asking her the same thing over and over again. I'm sure she'd rather have people ask her about her as an individual, not her as an entire culture and heritage. You can only hear the same question so many times before you get sick of it, and she's probably well past that line. Of course, if a girl does act like she's all that, then yeah, she'd better have a parchute, 'cause I'm gonna drop her in a heartbeat. I have no problem treating a girl like a princess, but I'll do it because I want to, not because she expects it.
Final Girl Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Lol if a girl does that, so what? It might be tongue in cheek, or she just might have great self-confidence and enjoys being a woman...that's to be admired in an age when so many women have poor self esteem. And I think it's nasty that some people would try to lower her self-worth by treating her badly, and is a sign of how much they loathe themselves that they would feel a need to do that.
Trialbyfire Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 While I've never used a screen name with either word, what does it matter? To judge someone based on a screen name is pretty shallow.
tanbark813 Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Granted, some women are hot, but would you say referring yourself as some kind of royalty or ficticious god is a reflexion of how seriously arrogant or stuck on themselves they really are? Yes. Avoid like the plague.
Star Gazer Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 For ONCE, I agree with you, Bells! I totally think it is. I avoid guys with names like: HotGuy4U, HardAbs415, SexyManJB3, YouWantThis310, BlueEyedGod78, SuccessandLooks888....you get the idea. I'd rather them have a boring name - some mix of their name, initials, zipcode, area code, sport they like, some inside joke or nickname, etc.
torranceshipman Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Actually StarGazer has a point!-I'd avoid guys with those types of screen names too!
Kamille Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 An Example: Like I saw "Asiangoddess" in one screenname, and for a whole paragraph she is explaining about how she is always asked of what asian descent she is from. Sounds like she's stuck on herself due entirely to her ethnicity. Like "Yeah we get it , you get emails from guys constantly asking you what your ethnicity is , and why they're attracted to it. I have to agree the situation your describe is weird. Was she complaining about people asking her about her ethnicity? I mean, if my screenname was CanadianPrincess, I would expect a few people to ask me which part of Canada I was from. But, if screennames with the words Princess or Hotstud are a turn off for you, then so be it. There are obviously people out there who aren't put off by it. No need for consensus here.
Vertex Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I wouldn't look too much into it right now. If things start confirming the concern though once you start talking, then, of course, back out. In my experience, girls that call themselves princesses are nothing but trouble. They tend to not appreciate things because they "expect" them, and this puts you at a constant disadvantage because nothing you ever do will be "great," but not doing those things is somehow downright deplorable. My ex had such a "princess complex." These people live in an unrealistic, utopian world full of vain expectations and self-oriented ideals. As "princesses," they, deep down, tend to feel that nothing should be hard in life. If things start to look tough, which happens with all relationships at some point, things will get unreasonably ugly. This happened CONSTANTLY because everything had to be her way, or else she'd throw a huge tantrum and try to fight. Anyways, pardon the digression. Don't jump to conclusions, but keep an eye out

T-shirts of course (along with babygirl...though that's the next one down, lol). I've seen "Spoiled" on T-shirts too.
Author Bells Posted October 4, 2008 Author Posted October 4, 2008 LOL...found a new one "Super Beauty" Get this her occupation is Model/Massage Therapist. Man, talk about a DREAM girl
Final Girl Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 LOL...found a new one "Super Beauty" Get this her occupation is Model/Massage Therapist. Man, talk about a DREAM girl :lmao::lmao: Well, good on her!!! I love women with confidence!! What's wrong with that? NOTHING!!!!
Author Bells Posted October 4, 2008 Author Posted October 4, 2008 :lmao::lmao: Well, good on her!!! I love women with confidence!! What's wrong with that? NOTHING!!!! Hey, if it's too good to be true...it is. lol Might be a mail order Russian bride scam.
Final Girl Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Hey, if it's too good to be true...it is. lol Might be a mail order Russian bride scam. Not necessarily...some women just have tonnes of confidence!! And *I* think that's the most attractive quality on earth - especially in women! (mmmnnn...could explain why I'm a bi-female, who knows? But I love it all the same!!) I think if we see women who enjoy being who they are..even if they go over the top, so what....?? We should be happy for them, instead of trying to drag them down!!!

Oh leave it alone. Firstly this girl was an absolute b*tch, she treated everyone else as if they were peasants, she was a mean girl. She deserved everything I threw at her, all the tears, all the rumors she was rubbish in bed which weren't true, she was amazing, but I just didn't like her attitude at all. I made her feel how she made everyone else feel. There's being confidence and comfortable in your skin and then there is treating your fellow human being with contempt. My only regret is that it didn't last longer.
