Insanitylater Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Online dating profiles. . . . You will see TONS of women say how they hate games, dishonesty, etc, etc. Yet when you communicate with them, or meet them in person, and they lose interest, they use games to avoid you. It's just funny how contradictory it all is. I guess all those " I hate games " lines only apply once the official dating starts. Yea right
Rinah Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Perhaps they just hate when people, other then them, play games. I know that when I lose interest in someone, I tell them straight out, I don't want to lead someone on. Perhaps you just aren't attracting the right type of women?
welikeincrowds Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Think about the type of person that's eager to write "I HATE MIND GAMES AND DISHONESTY!!!" on their public profile where they were asked to describe themself. Think about everything that's wrong with that. There's no reason to even bother sending those people a message.

Yea right Well...next time one of them does this, why don't you say "I thought you hated dishonesty / games?" and see what happens!
ReturnToSender Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 I find that people who proclaim it, either live it or are very very bitter. When I was doing the online thing, I figured that out pretty quickly and saw it as a warning sign to stay away from them...
Author Insanitylater Posted November 5, 2010 Author Posted November 5, 2010 Well...next time one of them does this, why don't you say "I thought you hated dishonesty / games?" and see what happens! LOL fat chance finding a female that will accept responsibility when approached with such a question. And yes I have tried it, thats how I know. I've been on a dating site over a year, and I always point out situations like this. None of them fess up to anything. It's like we are all supposed to ignore the elephant in the room. In the unwritten rules of dating. . . when a girl loses interest, the guy is supposed to take the hint and leave with his tail between his legs. How dare he question anything.
ReturnToSender Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Its like that with the guys too. Its not a woman thing, its a people thing...some are like that some arent.
Author Insanitylater Posted November 5, 2010 Author Posted November 5, 2010 Exactly. It goes both ways. Some people just don't respect other people enough to tell them the truth. It's that simple. well since I dont date guys, obviously thats why I only post about what women do. I'm not here to set the record straight. But of course on every post, theres always that person that has to write, Yea but the other sex does it too , yea we all know that, its common sense.
ReturnToSender Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 You were making a broad statement about how women are... The point was just to let you know youre not the only one who goes through it, we do too.
BrianK Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 This is what you put in your online dating profile... Few limitations here.. -If you have been on this site for 5 years (or have accumulated enough points for a glittery profile), dont bother me..you've watched too many soap opera's and what you think you are looking for is not out there. Grow up. -If you have no drivers license, work at tim hortons or are one of those girls that just moved to the City from some little town but dont have the income to do anything except roam around (on foot) with your sunglasses on holding your hand bag...dont bother. -If your profile describes the person you want to be but not the person you are, again, please move along. -If your profile states "I like going out but also like staying in" hit the road honey..if you can't make a decision as simple as that, then I want nothing to do with you. -No myspace angle head-shots, your jig is up..If I can't see your collar bone I'll go ahead and assume you're 300 lbs. -If going to the tanning salon is a weekly ritual of yours, you know the drill. That is SO bad for your skin it isn't funny, that and the fact you're going to look like one of those hairless wrinkly cats by the time you turn 40. -If you want to argue with me about what I've written here...GO FOR IT!

It's just funny how contradictory it all is. I guess all those " I hate games " lines only apply once the official dating starts. Yea right Many men and women think they can set the rules, but also think those same rules do not apply to them. I also agree that women who post things like "sick of the games" or "no liars" or any of those kinds of things more or less tell me that they are usually the type to pick liars and game-players...but they think their words might perhaps sway one of those guys into committing. If she really wanted a decent "good guy" then she would pick one. Granted one has to go through a lot of fish to find the right one, but in my book when they now have to declare that they are "sick of the games", then it tells me they don't have it in them to pick a good guy.
OceanGirl Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Did you know that guys do myspace angles shots too? This guy had some head shots where he looked pretty cute. He also had his body type listed as "average". I don't mind few extra pounds on a guy but when I met him, he turned out to be obese. I didn't even recognize him

I started writing out a lengthy response, and re-read what you just wrote, and figured you said it better than I ever could have
Author Insanitylater Posted November 5, 2010 Author Posted November 5, 2010 You were making a broad statement about how women are... The point was just to let you know youre not the only one who goes through it, we do too. Once again, its common sense. We know its a people thing. Do you seriously think that you have to inform everyone of that? And once again, as I said before, when I start dating guys, I will complain about them too.

And once again, as I said before, when I start dating guys, I will complain about them too. Alllrighty then... So if its all common sense and youre going to be annoyed by anyone who responds to you, you started a thread about it because...? ETA: Dont have to answer that...lol! youre irritated by any acknowledgement to your post as it is.
sanskrit Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 If men went into every thread started here by women complaining about what men, or what a man had done, and started peppering the thread with "well women do it too," they would get banned for trolling fairly quickly, because that's exactly what it is. Somehow, for some reason, most men don't feel the need to do that here thank goodness...
ReturnToSender Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Wow....well I'll back off of this thread... I didnt mean to come off like a troll or anything...I really didnt know that what I said was offensive enough to get banned.
Author Insanitylater Posted November 5, 2010 Author Posted November 5, 2010 ETA: Dont have to answer that...lol! youre irritated by any acknowledgement to your post as it is. Wrong again, only annoyed by you specifically because you are unable to realize that posting " well so and so does it too " has no relevance. People like you dont want to talk about the actual subject of the post, so instead you use the cliched answer "guys do it too".
collegeguy_24 Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 This thread belongs in the rants and raves section, people stop posting this ***** in the dating section! Its seriously a waste of time and space, if you want to argue, put it someplace else.
