peterfl	8/6/2009 5:18:03 PM I'm not over weight, I'm not bald and brainless blonde chicks with big boobs are not attractive to me! But a woman that answers you exhibits interest and then won't respond to you when you send her a message is not interesting either. LOOK IN THE MIRROR TIDE GIRL!
tidegirl	8/7/2009 6:12:51 AM There is a reason you haven't heard from me. I was working that night and my phone was smashed by accident. I ordered a replacement. Because it was the weekend it was Monday afternoon before I got my phone. When I finally got everything working I had so many messages from you that it was disturbing. Are you some kind of stalker or something. Most people would have left a message or two and let it go at that. And if you had done that, I would have called you on Monday night to tell you what happened, apologized and we probably would have had a good time. But you were like some kind of nut job that wouldn't quit. So you scared me and I didn't call you back and after this I never will.
gator61653	8/7/2009 7:50:39 AM i am a little overweight i am just a plain man i am not high maintenance man i dont have a nice car but i do have aa nice pu it is a 2004 chevy silverado xtra cab pic in profile see i read things
wayoverdue	8/8/2009 9:45:49 AM I think your right,I don't like my pictures but I date them and that's the way it should be.The problem is to many people,for example (a few extra pounds) ,I'm sorry but 100lb's is not a few!What I'm getting at it's like takeing a lie detector test and you know you did it but you still take the test?Don't get it Don
luckymecj	8/8/2009 1:44:39 PM It's hard to be a woman with a brian and a mind of your own. Most men say they want a strong woman but run if the conversation gets pass your age. I think we all want the same thing to be accepted for who we are and not have so many expectation put on us.
sjsjuly22	8/9/2009 4:36:50 AM I agree with Tidegirl & Luckymeci, it's unbelievable how shallow men are. Most have the attitude that they are God's gift to any woman they come in contact with. Don't get me wrong, I'm not Prom Queen material, but HONESTLY fellas you men at this age aren't Prom King material either.....we are what we are....we were what we were when we were 20....in 40 years lots of things happen!!!! Grow up fellas....get to know a lady first before you cross her off your list, she just might be what the Doctor ordered.
tidegirl	8/10/2009 9:37:21 AM Thanks girls! And to the first comment, peterfl; there's a reason he didn't get his call back. He turned into some kind of 'phone stalker' when I was unable to return his call in a timely manner. Here's another question I'm putting out there. If you told someone you would call them and for reasons beyond your control didn't. Only to find out when you were able to access your phone and his number there were way too many messages, each one getting a little more hostile than the one before. What would you do? Would you call that person back or just write him off as a scary jerk that you had the good fortune to have a VERY good reason for not calling back in the first place.
chuckles32257	8/10/2009 12:43:19 PM Think you ladies don't have much room to talk / complain. I've read quite a few of your profiles, and what YOU are looking for. Hmmmm, interesting, seems most of you are looking for someone "younger", physically fit, no baggage, etc. I also think your restrictions are way more "out of line" then men.
chuckles32257	8/10/2009 12:45:05 PM I myself, am not the least bit interested in some young, big boobed, empty headed Barbie doll. I really get a kick out of the "few extra pounds". I have met a couple of ladies here, and certainly don't fit the "few" category. Pictures? Yeah well, how about something recent, not twenty years ago. Get real!I don't have a problem with someone being (what the doctors call) overweight. Over the years, I have met many "large" women, that are still gorgeous. It's not the body size or shape, but how they present themselves. Sure, outward appearences are nice to look at. It's their heart and attitudes that impress me more than anything.
tidegirl	8/10/2009 12:55:53 PM Maybe you guys need to read this blog as it is. Not what you want to make it out to be. Overweight is not the issue. The issue is, men of less than perfect stature requiring only women that meet very strict standards like looks, actions, and a lot of others. I've been with some very nice 'stocky' men and find them to be great people. But they did not require me to be arm candy for them. Just forget it. Apparently you guys will never get it.
sjsjuly22	8/10/2009 2:44:31 PM Hey Tidegirl....you were correct to not return the scary fella's phone calls....chalk it up to lesson learned. Just be careful who you give your number to...there is too much crap happening out there these days!!!!!!
1takoda	8/13/2009 7:45:10 PM if a man wants a good body with no brain, LOL it only means he has no brains. Hey guys I find you get more from her body if you stimulate the brain first
tidegirl	8/14/2009 12:44:11 PM Thank God, there are a few good ones out there. Thank you guys for your supportive emails.
jd41	8/14/2009 1:24:43 PM I think everyone, except the phone stalker, has made their own point. When we start categorizing people there is always negative comments. LOL! I personally don't respond to many profiles I'd like too because I see something that would not possibly work at this time and don't want to waste someone's time just emailing or chatting, due to my family responsibilites for now. Many put in their profiles that they like to travel, go places, etc. which is difficult for me. Just an example. So there are different strokes as they say. Patience, you may just meet him/her in the supermarket..lol!
joet1919	8/15/2009 1:27:01 AM Please don't judge us all by our covers.You have to look into the heart and thats what I do.If you have a caring heart than you become my friend any shape size,age or color.We are not all alike.
whatexitnj	8/15/2009 7:39:04 AM I totally agree with jd41. I just didn't know how to put it into words. A guy may be looking for someone that wants to ride on his Harley with him and go camping every weekend. That's not what I like to do, so we wouldn't be a good match and so on and so on. Also,I do believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder as far as attraction goes.
d_freebird	8/15/2009 5:54:10 PM With over a decade of online dating experience, my approach has become "lock the door and leave the window open". I've learned that I really don't like 99% of the people in this world, and maybe 99.6% of those online. So often as not I'm unforgivingly plain in tabulating the "specs" (blond and dumb are not among these, but there are plenty). Not on this site though; a "don't bother" profile is all it gets. Time is one thing I don't have a lot of, and one I can always fill. So no need to waste it in humoring someone I know from the get-go will be "please go".
greeneyes_lady	8/17/2009 7:56:08 PM This one is for tidegirl...you are right, to voice your opinion. And I think giving a phone number isn't a good idea until you at least talk to them for awhile and get to know them a little. You can chat for sometime and get to know someone. Sometimes it is easy to talk to someone, but when they get to demanding and raise there voice..to me that is a sign that you may not want to give out that number. So far the ones I have talked to on here have all been gentlemen. This is safer than going to bars...LOL. Well, good luck to you and all...have a great day..
ijack	8/18/2009 6:37:30 AM Tidegirl--Your hammer swings true...Since I have beenback on the dateing ( or trying)i have heard some very sad comments about my groop--men-- from some nice ladies. Guys if it dont work--for any reason--let it go---The lady always has the last say -- always.
bea1937	8/18/2009 9:27:07 AM They also want you to be half their age. They also mention a high income. The no pictures thing makes me wonder who they are hiding from. Give me a break.
graygost4	8/19/2009 6:58:23 AM ok here mine why are the same ladies allways on here done they ever take any body. and when you ask questions they get mad you can find out a lot if and see if you intrested if they open up and discuss things and get to the point and quit playing around clyde have a good day
cabinary	8/19/2009 7:16:01 AM %Tidegirl,,, the waves are rolling in, and the shore is losing sand, come away from the water and hold my hand, we can go to places far beyond your dream, out into the universe to a star that has your name, or down the street to a soda shop and split some ice cream, if you decide, this you would like to do,write me back a note that only say's "YAHOO" I see more in you than meets the eye,,, I do have a picture on this site. Cabinary
goatherding	8/20/2009 7:55:23 AM I'm sympathetic to what Tide girl has to say.I don't think it's wrong to prefer a trim woman when I've maintained the same weight for 40 years-I don't see a double standard. I don't think my preferences aren't in tune with my age bracket either.I don't want a glamor girl but I do want one with a brain.
