    Question "Dont look for love, it will find you"

    What a crock of shit. At least, I think so.

    I hear people say all the time that youll find a girlfriend when youre not looking. THEN, at the same time, I hear other people say to get out there and just get laid.

    I do get laid from time to time and I do see people , but these arent girlfriend materials.

    So what fucking advice should I follow? Not trying? Or keep plugging?

    I honestly cant see how getting laid from time to time cant net an actual girlfriend. Maybe I am picky, who knows.

    You're looking for the wrong type/wrong place? You have plenty fo time, stop rushing.

    Stop rushing..yeah, I suppose I am. But you know what someone else would say? "Live each day as if it were your last" "Carpe Diem!"

    You dont need to rush things but you be better act quick about it that doesnt mean you need to get a girlfriend now but it would be better if it was soon enough.

My dad always told me never settle for anything be picky about who you want to be with or what you're looking for becuase if you rush it, it probably won't work any way... my advice keep getting laid and the girl you meet that won't let you get any might be the one...

    Take your time, don't look. Chicks hate desperation. Bang away and let it happen on it's own.

    Keep pluggin. Fuck marriage. I've recently come to the realization that I have absolutely no desire to "settle down." At least no time in the near future. That being said, I'll probably meet my future wife next week.

    Good. Your dad gives good advice.

    I am picky. Not picky for sex but I am with girlfriends. I do, however, miss the little things.

    Its been almost 2 years since I had a real life girlfriend. I must say though, that the single life isnt as shitty as some may say. I am alone, but I am not lonely. Eh, I get lonely sometimes, but so do people WITH significant others.

    I remember being in a shitty relationship and knowing that I would rather be miserably lonely than dreadfully taken.

    Of coarse that isn't true. If that horseshit were true, people wouldn't die alone now would they? Or worse you lose your wife, house, and kids in a messy divorce when you wife decides there is no romance left in the relationship. You go to see your kids one day and you notice some dude is shacked up in your house fucking your wife and spending time with your kids while you pay for over half of it.

    Bang as many as you can, fuck what anybody else thinks, and take care of yourself first. Get a vasectomy now, before you get some woman pregnant.

    So True!!!!

    they can sense desperation from miles away.


    Did you ever notice how much more girls notice you when you have a girlfriend? Why's that? it's cuz your not out looking. And since your getting action all the time, you don't emit your desperation cues that you never notice.

    Here in Dallas all the women are staying at home by the phone waiting for Tony Romo to call them. Talk about us men being picky? Hell, Texas is full of 30 something single women waiting for the total package to arrive. Funny to watch. They really believe they deserve looks, money, and all that passonate bullshit they see in Hollywood. Three things happen to these women.
    1.They get played time after time by the yuppie player preying on their dilusions.
    2. By the time reality settles in they are too old to attract their target.
    3. Did you know there are lots of women in their 40's waiting for anyone to call them. They won't leave me alone. So much for their prized QB.

    I wished women would realize that being average is fine. Average is well, normal. There are lots of average normal guys to go along with the average normal girls. Don't tell them that. They expect life to be like the big screen. Only on tv can a pizza man have a nice apartment in the Big Apple, a model girlfriend, and lots of free time to spend with her. They just sit and wait never appreciative of the common good man.
    The girl you are looking for is indeed a rare find.

    Funny Funny Funny that you say that. The last few women Ive gotten are older ones and they dont expect much out of me passed the sex. I dont have to make money, be always available...basically, I dont have to be perfect. Its quite nice!


    Viet_John...define looking. It must be a scent they pick up, cuz I dont exactly go to a bar and talk to one girl, get shot down, then go to the next. To me, thats looking, and looking hard! Thats not what I do at all or ever did when I was "taken."

    I do know that when I have a girlfriend, I am going out less, so when I do, I smile more, alcohol tastes like bliss, everyone is happy to see me since I never go out, etc. That attitude in itself, will attract women. I like to have that attitude when I go out period. I dont fake it to "attract women," but you have a better chance having a GOOD TIME when you apply yourself to a fun attitude and I would rather have a good time and a lousy time, gfriend find or not.

    So true.. single life can be great, but sometimes you just want regular sex without working for it. It's also nice to be able to always have someone to do stuff with if you want to do something, whether it's just going out to check a new movie or having someone to cook Thanksgiving dinner with.

    Good post. I'm still relatively young, but I can see this happening to a lot of girls I know or have dated in the past. I think a lot of the real attractive girls who like to stay single will end up this way, thinking they can have any guy for a relationship in their mid-30s.

    I drink too much when I'm single. Then I end up getting fat from it and have to do a disapearing act for a few months while I get my body back in check.

    My daughter has been waiting for "love" to find her for about 7 years. I also think it's a myth. If you want someone, I think you have to put yourself out there where mate material is such as places most people go to take care of themselves and their business or families.

    Libraries, Malls, Grocery stores, clubs and organizations, etc. Volunteering for something that many others also do might help too. My daughter has a 10 year old son so she thinks that is holding her back.

    Finding love all depends on your looks and financial status.

    I see love as this. People are all complicated pieces to a puzzle. The chances of someone finding a person who's puzzle piece fits together with theirs depends on how complicated the shape of your puzzle piece is.
    What kind of shape is your puzzle piece? Also, are you willing to bend to fit someone else's puzzle piece?

    A 10 year old son, well no, any kids that old wouldnt really scare me off, but young ones do. I fucking hate the terrible twos.

    However, I dont know...kids do get in the way. With me, I cant see myself lasting long with someone with kids, however, I did end up dating someone that was a decade older than me for longer than I anticipated, so what I say sometimes means shit after I am hooked.

    I get so many older women nowadays that people ask me why I cant find one my own age. I tell them "everyone my age is shitting out kids, raising kids, or going through divorces." Older women usually pass that after I get to them.

    Why you can't find love if you go looking for it:

    Love, is a poorly understood emotion. Its affection, its trust, its respect, its honor.

    You can't give it, if you don't live it. You have to find ways to grow into yourself emotionally, to become mature, and to gain self sufficiency (emotional and spiritual, as well as financial). That means you don't go looking for someone else to give you happiness, contentment, joy. If you ain't got it, you sure as hell aren't going to get it handed to you by someone else. Its not their job in life (to make you happy and content).

    Learn contentment that is not based on having. Things do not get you contentment, they merely fuflfill immediate physical needs and presumed desires and appetites.

    This is why having plenty of girls to fuck, will not necessarily get you contentment or happiness. It won't be a good stopgap for loneliness. You can still be lonely in a while roomful of people, if there is no emotional connection. If you spend time with emotionally immature dates, who are self centered and not ready for mature sharing of self with others in a relationship, then there is nothing but short periods of cheap thrills from sex, and boredom inbetween.

    The most healthy emotional connection is made when you have two people, both full of happiness and contentment that is self generated, self appointed, and overflows to include the other. Neither is drained by silly obligation to make the other happy (a fruitless labor, believe it).

    So, the bottom line is, you will not find love, until you know it, practice it in yourself, extend to yourself honor, respect and trust. Be what you want to attract. Be the full cup, be happy and content with your life and its progress, not with some mythical goals of presume happiness saved like dessert for the distant future.

    People who are not needy, will attract their partners who are also not needy, do not drain them, do not take what is not theirs to take, who have more than enough to share in simple giving, for the sake of giving, without expectation of reward (thats going back to expecting others to make you happy again).

    What this does is give you peace of mind, pleasure in the present, in simple loving and knowing others, in learning. In growing into yourself. When the time comes and you cross paths with someone similar who is also emotionally, spiritually, and financially mature..as well as physically sound..then you will find love.

    I tell you this: you won't know its packaging, because those we love many come in unfamiliar boxes. But you will come to know the contents as valuable, as being similar to your own inner self. It will be the familiar, the feeling of coming home to what you have been waiting for.

    This is how you find love. This is how love finds you.
