BUT he left her a momento of their encounter. This was a piece of string around her wrist. LOL I find this hilarious. The gut had a one night stand, probably , gave it all the spiel and got away with it with a piece of string. I find it amazing that some females are duped by a bit of chat and a piece of string that they think they have found love. I was in a relationship with a girl who went on holiday , shagged another bloke one night stand . He wrote her a poem and she thought that was really nice and what a sensitive bloke he was. Why do women swallow this drivel?? Are they all this stupid??
No, they are not stupid or at least not any more dumb than men that think some pretty woman is into them as she batters her eyelids to get a few free drinks.
I came across an interesting bit of trivia that may explain this. On one dating site a question was asked if the person thought passion or dedication was more important in a relationship. In the vast majority of cases women answer "passion", while men in the vast majority of cases answer "dedication".
Now if you think about it both these terms are some what ambiguous. One persons interpretation of each word may differ from another's, but yet the gender split on the answer was quite apparent. In my opinion it does point out I think where a lot of the male/female clashes occur. I think men often tend to be creatures of habit/routine. They apply a logic to something and can often be stubborn to budge from that. Women tend to be prefer spontaneity. They view that sort of action as passionate/fun, while the routine that many men create is viewed as dull/boring.
The only issue is that many of the guys that seem spontaneous are more likely just unreliable, which may seem interesting and mysterious in the short term, but bloody annoying in the long term. This doesn't get around the fact their actions often would have made the women feel good about themselves and invoked that feeling of "passion", which is something Mr Dedication is rarely going to get the chance to do as he's viewed as being dull and no fun.
Oh, and man up and just put a bloody picture on your profile as a description isn't cutting the mustard.0 -

Well still single - still looking lol.

The same goes for guys looking for girls - the one we want to find doesn't seem to exists0 -

Females are too keen to get you to commit I think, if you say you just want to see how things go then they hear, I just want to see you until we have sex then Im off! What happened to just having fun and enjoying one anothers company before jumping into the frying pan??0

Remember what you want and what you can get are two different things. Also the size of your inbox is no indication of your attractiveness.
One last one. Internet dating is rubbish, the women get swamped by married perv and the men get ignored.Hi there! We’ve had to remove your signature. It was so good we removed it because we cannot think of one so good as you had and need to protect others from seeing such a great signature.0 -

I disagree. The last thing i'm looking for is any sort of commitment ! But then maybe thats because i've been there and done that and wasn't impressed ! Possibly the younger females are, say between 25-35.
It should be about having fun and seeing where it all leads.0 -
To be honest it sounds like the bitter rantings of an insane man to me.
If the majority of women you meet think you are just looking for sex then maybe the onus is on you to think how you project yourself in the company of women.0
