Could be I guess. ...I think I just give off bad, intimidating vibes in person.

You don't seem like you would be that way. I don't really know you, but I can tell you have a really good sense of humor from your posts. Then again, I really get sarcasm. I have to be careful myself at times, because people don't always realize I'm joking (more so online when they can't see my face).

Oh really, do you like women who aren't super girly or something? :mmh: I don't know where I got the idea from, but it always seems like a lot of guys (not all) like girly girls, but maybe I'm totally wrong.

Weird. Because most men I know and even men I've observed have all gone for the more girly types. Which has ultimately played into shaping my belief that I personally am not attractive or womanly enough. Not 'every' man I know or have observed has fallen into this category, but yes, the majority have. I must know a different class of people I guess. ?

I don't know any men who like the "girly-girls". I certainly don't. There's an old song that goes, "I want a girl, just like the girl, that married dear old dad". Well, none of the women in my family are "girly". They are all tough as nails. They would have to be to put up with the men in my family. :ahah:

Lol my sons don't like 'em. They whine about nothing and they do not understand them. The tomboys they can fight with and climb trees with.

I know how they feel. One of my best friends as a kid was a girl who lived down the street. She used to come over and target shoot with me. We would have spitting contests. She ended up married to a friend of mine and they have 6 kids now. And she keeps them in line. lol

Once again, we think alike, lol. That's what I've seem to observed from men too. I mean I'm not saying all men are like that either, but I've always felt like I have a mark against me because I'm not womanly enough.

Who for? If you decide the standard then you will always be good enough.

It is impossible to please every single person in the world; there will always be someone to say we are too tall, too short, too clever by half or too stupid. So pick your own standard and live by it; that way one person at least will always be happy.

Everyone has another taste. There's a lot of women who don't look or dress feminine at all and they're all married. I think you have a bigger chance though to find someone if you do some effort.

I'm a man, and I can't stand armpit hair and have been ripping mine out in the shower (or shaving them) for as long as I can remember. There are nice fringe benefits--- I smell nice longer and I use way less deodorant than most guys, not to mention I don't sweat as much under the arms :)

Another funny thing that drives all of my girlfriends crazy is I have insanely pretty hands and feet and I don't do pedicures or manicures, they are just naturally pretty with nice nails.

And for some reason I have very nice long eyelashes that my girlfriends have also been jealous of ...

But the feet, hands, and eyelashes aren't my fault. Just all natural :)

True, IRLwe can see your flaws, but that goes with everyone.

Nah, I think its much cooler to know peoples flaws. Then, when you see those flaws and love them still. Whether as a friend or something more..... its real.

Its easy to be friends or attracted to someone who seemingly has no flaws.

That's sweet and all but not realistic.

Knowing someones flaws and still liking them is not realistic? Okay.

If thats how you veiw it then you have NO idea what love is.

Love is NOT based on some idealistic childish belief that someone is fairytale perfect.

Love is knowing someones flaws and accepting them and at a certain level, loving those flaws even though they might drive you crazy at times. Because it is who that person is.

If that is unrealistic, then love is shallow and meaningless emotion if its based on a false image of perfection.

Hats off to you sir! It's a pity love has been decomposed like this thus my assumption that it was just some cheesy, empty words, but I was wrong, kudos to you!

Of course it is. I always first tell all my horrible things and if someone isn't totally repelled but still likes me, that's the one. Wait lol maybe that's why I can't find anyone hahahahaha.
