Another of our members thought I was in a crabby mood. Upon self-assessment, I discovered she was absolutely correct.

For a woman, her looks are the most important criteria for getting responses.  However, before all you women out there call us men shallow, keep in mind that a man's income is the most important criteria to attract potential partners.

WOW!!! How did I miss this one?!? :o Thx for bringing it to attention, Briny!

Rick, I don't think is true at all! Forgive me if I'm wrong, but you seem to be implying *all* women by not specifying. :evilgrin:

We've had this discussion numerous times on the board, and while it seems this is a real problem as outlined by Jextract and drbill in SoCal, for example, it is not true of all women, and perhaps not even most women. (At least the ones I know.)

Personally, I'd like to be with someone who can support himself, just as I can support myself. Whether he makes more or less than me is inconsequential -- what matters in terms of finances is that he is independent and capable, just as I am.

:P

(Brinybay@Aug28,2005,02:10AM)If you want to meet women in bars but don't drink, just lick the back of your platinum card and stick it to your forehead.

Bring your platinum card to Texas and we will have some fun! :evilgrin:

:o Geez, how did I miss that invitation? If it wasn't maxed out dear, I would in a heartbeat! (You may have to settle for the gold card.)

Hey, I was dating my neighbor for a while. but since he is not in to diving it did not work out. :evilgrin:

That's what I call being right neighborly! Are there any vacant homes on your street?

Rick can fight his own battles, but in his defense, what he said IN GENERAL is true, particularly of online dating sites.

Guess that's why I don't *do* online dating sites! :o

Bullshit. I'm sure you would get a LOT of responses. :evilgrin:

LOL!!! Thank you, Greg, but that's not quite what I meant.

What I meant was that if the kind of people that do online dating are those that judge others primarily by their appearance or pocketbook, then it's not the place for me.

:P
