OpenGL Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 I think we can all agree that craigslist pretty much contains the bottom barrel of women in the internet. Yes they are some jewels on there, but generally they are low quality. You know what though? Sadly I don't even meet the vast majority of their requirements.

D-Lish Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 Yes they are some jewels on there, The only jewels on CL are actual jewels, like opals and estate jewellry.

D-Lish Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 Ok, yeah, I was giving CL the benefit of the doubt but I can't argue with that Try POF then. CL is commonly known for hooking up.

I'm sorry I still believe theres some one out there for EVERYONE! don't look on line I found theirs nothing but worries on here far as dateing... And for gods sake man don't touch Craig's list unless you wanna end up on a milk carton some day thats the coup de gra of wackos!
CarrieT Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 Where do you live? I'm here in San Francisco and I found these under the w4m (not Casual Encounters) that have nothing to do with White Men: Filipino looking for Asian or black - - (novato) I am an attractive and down to earth Filipino looking for someone who is caring and take very good care himself. If anyone interested to make a new friend from other culture, email me with your pic. That is the only way that I will respond. Thank you! .....a meaningul relationship, fun, laughter, love and togetherness in good as well as bad times. Must be educated, love to travel, enjoy weekend getaway, likes music, dancing. concerts, have a curious mind and a wide range of interest. I thrive with a man who has zest for ideas, and the joy of life as I do. Warm, wit and compassion will be a fabulous combination I am fit, attractive, educated, and well travelled. I have a very caring nature and enthusiastic about a whole range of things. My world is uncluttered drama free and simple that gives more time for pleasure. If you are genuine, sincere ,honest, not a game player, please drop me an email describing yourself and a picture and I will respond. Hi Gentlemen, I'm a white, attractive ultra selective woman who is now ready to commit. I'm 5' 7"; 0 extra pounds ļ.. I have a great job which is very important to me. I need a guy who can spend quality time doing things whether it is indoor or outdoors. I enjoy cuddling watching movies or traveling for the weekend. I enjoy simple things like riding a bike or just walking or hiking. I also really like silky salt and pepper hair, not bald. I am not looking for someone to take care of me or support me. I value my independence, but I am at a point in my life that I want a special person who is there for me and that I can be there for him. If you're the guy I've just described, please let me know ) No picture, no answer! ONLY, serious, sane guys, please! Any race...
Bejita463 Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 It's not me, its everybody else. When most people hear hoof beats they think it is a horse. Some think it is a zebra. Apparently you are thinking that it is a dude with emptied halves of coconuts.
Rorschach Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 When most people hear hoof beats they think it is a horse. Some think it is a zebra. Apparently you are thinking that it is a dude with emptied halves of coconuts. Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
Green Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 I wouldn't make your self feel bad because some people on craigslist requested certain heights or races. Other then for entertainment I wouldn't recomend using craigslist... its good for selling some things
somedude81 Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 LOL craigslist is a joke if you aren't a woman. I'm willing to bet that 99% of the girls posting in casual encounters are fake. The w4m contains real girls but they are all BBW. It all boils down to the fact that a normal inshape girl, has no need for craigslist or online dating.
Author OpenGL Posted May 1, 2010 Author Posted May 1, 2010 The w4m contains real girls but they are all BBW. About 70% of the ads are BBWs, I ignored those and only posted the ads of the non BBWs.
somedude81 Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 About 70% of the ads are BBWs, I ignored those and only posted the ads of the non BBWs. Oh sorry, I didn't even click on the ads where the woman was 40+. Those are the missing 30%.
phineas Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 Add to the fact your fairly negative outlook and yes I can see why you fail. I'm 38 yrs old. 5' 8" 220lbs 36 inch waist. love handles. balding & grey hair. Now, I lift weights & it shows but still I consider my face average & would not take my shirt off in public just yet. LOL! I've had women approach me. Flirting with me. asking for my number. Not a lot & it doesn't pan out most of the time but i'm almost certain openGL is far more attractive LOOKING than me but I get more interest from women than him. Could be the age group differences. But It's most likely his attitude that is so unappealing to women. If he's anything in real life like he is here it's no wonder chicks avoid him. He's been told this numerous times but he just won't listen.
xpaperxcutx Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 OGL, I actually would've expected more originality from you but from this new thread, I was more than wrong. It's a fact that CL is only usable for hookups. I will admit that when I first tried online dating with CL back in early '08, there weren't as much douchebags as there are now. I did manage to meet one or two guys who were at least date worthy. But now I hardly ever go on there unless I'm looking for a job. I don't find it realistic to meet and date someone on there who describes themselves as " single, white, and handsome". In fact they all meet that criteria in the first place it's already questionable why they're posting on a place as sleazy as CL.
kimbop Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 I know a couple who met through CL. Ironically enough, they are both attractive, sane, well educated, and very personable. It can happen I guess. They just got married, and they're both very happy. Their reasons for using CL: The guy (the one who wrote the post) - CL is free, and all his friends are married. Meeting single girls is very difficult unless it's in a bar, and the liquor can impair judgments. He doesn't care for games that woman like to play, and back then he was looking for a long term serious relationship. The girl - she hasn't been in this city for long and travels too much for work. She doesn't have any friends in this city. She doesn't like the bs of dating so she found his blunt approach refreshing and attractive. So CL is not the bottom of the barrell if you look at them.
Author OpenGL Posted May 3, 2010 Author Posted May 3, 2010 OGL, I actually would've expected more originality from you but from this new thread, I was more than wrong. Yeah sorry I was being a bit lazy/uncreative when I made this topic. I just happened to be browsing CL and was getting fustrated. Also, if anyone thought I was only posting ads from white women, you were wrong. Only half of those were from white women, the other have was a combination of black, hispanic, and asian.
