My Problem with Ladies: I'm 'What They Need,' but They're Too ... 'Distracted by the Flashy-Flashy!'

Maybe this sounds a little disrespectful; but a) the truth doesn't care who likes it & b) neither does the lonely guy. You've seen 'guys like me' depicted in movies-&-literature all the time (oh, we're each 'different like snowflake' ... but our differences STILL leave us all alone ). The difference--of course--is that the lady doesn't go for 'the tramp' when she has the easy option of 'life with easy money' (logical, really; choosing either 'a man with passable looks-&-build & a sizable income' or 'an ugly bug with a pittance of an income' ... (... I know ladies don't look at a guy & consciously think, "Hmm, millionaire?" But the sizable income gives a man more confidence---"People depend on me enough to pay me THIS MUCH," he thinks in the back of his head. "So I am much-more powerful than people can see!" (That, and the steady income gives a guy much-more opportunity to provide gifts & activities for his lovers & friends ) Anger about this rose today when I 'played' Hi5's MeetMe. At MeetMe, you are shown a picture of someone whom you might like to meet (along with their city-location & what they're looking to meet-for), and you can click 'yes' or 'no' and the 'yes' sends them your picture & the information & gives them the opportunity to send you a message; and you also receive the 'yes'es given to YOUR listing. My problem there is: none of the ladies want to meet in real life. Almost every 'yes' I get just wants me to 'text them' (even AFTER the message I send says that I CAN'T TEXT ... no text-phone-device). Ladies just want to be the useless spires on wealthy men's castle-tops. (Even if they're low-level working men---they're richer than they know) Is that the way it looks to you?

I hear you. I used to be in the dating game. It's like the animal kingdom where you get hurt often and rejected. Man that hurts. I feel your pain. Having been married now for 5 years, my wife and I both am glad to be out of that dating scene! I hope you can accept some personal advice since you are displaying your issues online. I got married at 38 years old. So, I spent years living a celebate life. Yes, I was lonely and it seemed then that Jesus was my only friend. My advice is to hang in there. For my years of sacrifice, the Lord gave me an awesome wife. In fact, we just got done praying our daily prayers together. A virtuous woman is worth many rubies. I can't tell you what that means to me. Women today are so distracted and confused about things. I recommend following Jesus first and let him worry about your dating issues. In fact those other women are just playing. Don't let yourself be led by them. Those type of women only hurt guys and really don't care about your pain. I spent my celebate years seeking God. He rewarded me with a good wife. I hope this helps you.
