Mig agreed with me? There is hope after all.

See... my criteria aren't that hard to fill.
But you'd be surprised how rare such a specimen is.

Quit worrying bout your criteria checklist and you might be surprised..

I wasn't bashing him for not wanting a relationship.. I was just disappointed. It seems that the guys I wouldn't mind relationships with only want sex, and the guys I wouldn't ever want a relationship with really want one from me. and the height thing, I am attracted to guys taller than me...(the tallest I ever dated was 7') The past 2 guys that I have dated just haven't worked out.. For some reason, guys shorter than me and I just can't get it together.. I am not against anyone for their height.

Sounded like it too me. First he was fine, then after the "not into a commitment" thing you were bashing his "manhood" and then his stature.

Criteria is ok to a point. I personally am not attracted to seriously overweight women and get the "your shallow" drama because of it. I don't think I am shallow, my DNA is just not coded to make me attracted to them. I think that is different than height because weight can be in MOST cases controlled height cannot.

You said that you have "waived" your height requirement 2 times and it didn't work out. Statistically speaking unless you have only dated 1 guy taller than you I bet that taller guys have disappointed you at a higher rate than the 2 short guys.

I am not saying that you being attracted to tall guys and not to short ones it bad, we all have our likes dislikes. It just sounds like you made a blanket statement about short guys, and guys over 32 or so in a previous thread. I have to shake my head at those types of criteria. I had a woman tell me once after she found out I was in the Navy that she wouldn't date a sailor they all cheat. I just looked at her and said thats OK, not many sailors will date Mainer women either. When she got huffy about that I asked her how the 2 statements were different, she just stared off into space.

Sh!t, I'm over 40, I must've found myself twice by now!:biggrin: But I must be boring because the X told me I was.

He still is fine, just not for me... When I get frustrated I start finding all the things I don't like about him to outweigh all the things that I do so I feel better about the whole situation. Yes, i have been disappointed by tall guys before too.. and I do the same thing to them when I don't get what I want. I am not saying that all short guys are bad, just for now I want a tall one.. and if a short one comes around that knows how to treat me right, we shall see. The whole age thing is just what I feel comfortable with. I don't want someone so much older than me that we are in different stages of our lives.. Just like I would prefer one that hasn't been married before and preferrably doesn't have any children.. just the way I am.. :cheers:
