Perhaps odd relationship question

[SmileyEH]

I just want to say the profiles listed for my area (town of 5000) are fabulous.

[Alamo]

I like the "I want, I need, you must, you must not" tone in these types of profile. Seems to me that with 4 kids, one should tone down a bit about one wanting to be spoiled.

It seems like at least 75% of these profiles fit this exactly. I'm not really that picky about looks but there's like one in ten girls in my age group on there that I would even consider dating. Its just bizarre to me. I wonder if women realize there's just as much single women as men.

singles ads (particularly in newspapers and such) are the most depressing reads and its not even close.

these people are completely unspecial, unattractive, and lacking any future whatsoever with few exceptions. but they aren't bad people, just people with nothing going for them. do they deserve to be happy and find someone for them? probably, but unless their standards have been sufficiently beaten down by their inability to ever achieve any material success in life then they are most likely destined to a life of intermittent loneliness interrupted only by short, empty, and likely mutually-parasitic relationships with similarly beaten down souls.


at least thats my take on it after reading a fair amount of singles ads by 'overweight single mothers who are just looking for a good guy to share her life with' and my experiences with similar people in real life situations (worked a couple months in a law firm that did a lot of divorces and custody stuff, which is probably why i am so jaded)

I'm not looking for someone to compleate me but to compliment me

I'll compliment her when she works on her spelling. Seems if you're trying to find a daddy for your 4 kids and you're going to be picky, you should run your work through a spelling and grammar checker first....

EDIT: The "her" link....she has her marital status as "prefer not to say". Is it just me or does that seem like a major deal with online dating???

[Klompy]

vehn,

LOL at that profile. Although she doesn't look horrible or anything, she looks WAY older then 25 and has obviously been beat down by life. I don't understand her profile, as it's about the least appealing thing I've ever read. She's essentially writing that she wants someone to pay to raise her children.....great exactly what I'm looking for.

OMG who bred with this thing.... twice?
