Sadly I believe that people are not always in touch with reality. It seems that they want a trophy on their arm, at their beckon call and on their terms. Reality Check: I haven’t seen anyone on here with George Clooney’s looks and Donald Trump’s money. So what is it you bring to the party? Yourself, and that is what we all bring. What defines a good woman is not, height, or weight or breast size. And heads-up girls, a good man does not come with a financial profile, one height or penis size… LOL ……… A good man comes from within the heart and mind.http://www.datehookup.com/images/smiley/heart.gif

I have often said that; if we really want to find that best friend and last love we would be better off to close our eyes. Then both men and women would choose for the right reasons, and without the trappings, deceptions and distractions.http://www.datehookup.com/images/smiley/love0081.gif

No I am not mad, or bitter; just a realist. Notice I didn’t take sides. Both men and women have to wake look into the mirror and be a realist if they hope to find something real. What is it that you bring to the party? http://www.datehookup.com/images/smiley/party0006.gifOkay, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it…

Someone told me I looked like Clooney...then she found her glasses I do have Donald Tramps money, think that's right? I've always believed everyone should be naked, no surprises!!! Also remove much of the unhealthy fantisy.

It is interesting that blind people don't seem to have as many issues with love as the sighted do.....

I'm getting the hang of this "on line" thing. The men want young, sexy, women---they are not interested in a relationship......are they?

Amazing isn't it? Ladies look for relationships, guys look for sex....It's the Venus vs. Mars thing!

People look at the physical. That's what get's one's attetnion in the first place. What holds that attention is the person's mental state, attitude, communication and intangibles. And of course we all have different levels of what attraction is and degree we use it to base our initial step in the first place with regards to the opposite sex.

Once people get out the highschool and early 20 age, people don't necessarily look for the model type beauty, but at least someone fairly attractive to his/her eyes. Anyone who denies this is full of s__T

I don't buy into that Mars and Venus. Yes, there are vast differences in men and women. However men have hearts, and minds too. Well some of them anyway... ONLY JOKING!!! I think that men and women are looking for the same thing. Some men have a distorted sense of what holds value, as do some women. Everyone goes about this differently, and their are a sprinkling of players on board as well. Often it's hard to sort through the BS.

Our true value comes from our hearts and minds. What's between our ears far out weights what's between our legs, and hopefully last longer.

At my age, and hopefully the men in my age range they are looking for someone to share the best years ahead. Someone to be their best friend as well.

Yes, we will always find malcontents or people with huge baggage in both sexes. Don't let it affect you, move on with a good attitude and know that there is someone out there for all of us.

It may not be what we have looked for in the past, it may not meet "criteria" that you felt was important before. But try rethinking that criteria. We have all been there and done that.

And because of that, and those past choices we are single and here now. Lets face it we have all made bad choices. Hmmmmmm, food for thought? Keep looking for the same things you did twenty years ago, and in another twenty years if you are still alive you will still be looking, and alone.

There is a lot to be said from brains, and a kind heart and integrity. It will far outlast anything superficial.

You want a reality check?
Ok.
Guys want a pretty lady with a personality that isn't too repulsive.
Ladies want a tall guy with money.
The end.

Now you got me wanting to buy an autobiography of a blind person.. I think there's a few musicians that come to mind.. Since they cant see their brain over develops in other areas and senses. So now you got me wondering "what a blind man sees" I think if we look the same way they do we could see it too. Perhaps not as well tho, they'd be experts and we'd be amatures. Blind people can fall in love right? I wonder what their divorce rate is. I'd guess it would be about the same.. but for different reasons.
