ilovemusic3 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 I'm a 26 year old female and i've met like a million guys between dating sites, speed dating, and meet up groups and I've never had a bf and casually dated 1 person. What should I do? Is it ridiculous to keep trying? 1
running4life Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 You focus on building yourself because you have strong qualities in person. I think it is smart. I would not worry about normal or not normal. I am 24 and yet to have a serious boyfriend. I have been on dates and been rejected. That may make me "un normal" however I respect my standards. The same applies to you. 1
running4life Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Take care of yourself and your community then you will find love. That is what happened to me. I was rejected but gosh dang it I was pleased to feel love. Do not look for it. 2
gorf Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Its fine. It shows you have standards. Guys like a girl with standards, contrary to any popular belief. I have not done online dating, but I can imagine it makes things very easy.. too easy, compared to say meeting someone through a friend etc. So its easy as flipping through tv channels and skipping what you dont like at a quick glance rather than find someone who is not perfect on the surface, and allowing time to really show their qualities, and time allowing you to accept what is 'different' or you would otherwise have an issue with. Hope this helps 1
smackie9 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Find a dating coach or have a male friend tell you honestly what you could do to improve on your dates whether it's improving conversation, how you look, etc I have been watching a show "first date" filmed here in Vancouver. I have to say people are very clueless as to why they have not had any success in dating. Like saying the wrong thing, talking about things they shouldn't, providing too much information, talking too much not letting their date get a word in, being negative, giving the bartender their number while their date leaves the table, getting intoxicated or fixated on alcohol, acting like a man child, or a party girl, etc. I don't think it's your "standards" that are preventing you from meeting the right person...everyone have "standards" "expectations" "values".
Author ilovemusic3 Posted February 15, 2016 Author Posted February 15, 2016 Don't get me wrong, I do have some standards, but the reason I haven't dated is because guys never like me. It's not because I have all these standards.
