Frustrated By Women Who Only Date Older Men
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Topics on February 5, 2010
Aaliyah is right, “Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number.” There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the current cougar or a manther trends, what confuses me are the younger women who often seek older men. There are several attractive friends I have, who enjoy dating “Silver Foxes” or prefer to be the younger 20 something in a relationship. This is paired with the fact that “women mature faster than men”. Fast enough for there to be a 20 year age gap between the two? I think not.
I don’t understand this trend, and almost believe it’s an excuse for unsuccessful women dating in their own age group. I’m not going to complain about woman who’s dating significantly older man. I’m complaining about the women who only seek to date older men and use the maturity excuse as a crutch. Read the rest of this entry »
Persistence Gets The Date
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating on February 5, 2010
The old adage, “If you want it, you’ll fight for it,” holds a lot of weight in terms of dating. However, finding the right date involves more than just fighting, it involves being persistent, vigilant, and responsive. I experienced this truth thru attempting to meet a recent OkCupid responder. This woman, I’m dubbing, “Rule Breaker”. The story of Rule Breaker has many parts, this is the prologue, but more importantly, it’s a demonstration of a powerful dating lesson. Be persistent. Not overbearing, persistent. Read the rest of this entry »
Stop Thinking So Much
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating on February 1, 2010
One of my major problem of mine is thinking too much. I tend to overanalyze my dating situations to the point I think myself out of potential success. Some of this is natural; I work in an analytical field and often find myself analyzing complex problems and determining solutions. Often, I feel my work is a natural extension of who I am, I enjoy problem solving. These skills don’t translate well to the dating environment, even if you have some tools for success.

If You Want It, You’ll Fight For It
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Topics on January 27, 2010
During a recent iChat conversation on the Thread.com blog, the ultimate dating truism was mentioned; if you like someone, you’ll fight for them. Often this dating logic places the burden of truth on the shoulders of men. If we like a girl, we would make attempts to call her. We would reach out to her every moment we had, we walk the mile for her every time. If a guy really liked a woman, he would do his best to reach out to her.
While the advice is accurate it’s also adds unrealistic expectations, and allows women to live in a fantasy land. It doesn’t recognize the actual expectations of living in the real world. It also excuses them of any responsibility. I believe this truism goes both ways. If a woman really liked a guy, she has the same responsibilities to fight for his attention.

Lessons I’ve Learned From Bad Sex
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating on January 27, 2010
Bad sex happens. Even those who claim to be “magicians” in bed, often jump over the basics that make sex wonderful. Bad sex isn’t an indicator of a bad woman, but some of the best lessons I’ve learned about women come from the many bad experiences between the sheets. That’s not to say you should sleep with a woman to determine if she’s the right one for you, but great relationships usually have great sex. There’s usually a sexual compatibility that exists with those you’re dated for a while and those you’ve wound up in relationships. I’ve found some trends with the women I’ve had horrible sexual experiences with. Read the rest of this entry »
Review of the OkCupid App
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating Resources on January 26, 2010
Last week, I was been unable to keep up with my online dating life. My laptop was on the fritz and had to be sent to an Apple repair center in Tennessee. To keep up with my online life, I decided to grab myself an iPod Touch and use it for my e-mail, Twitter, and dating life. It gave me a moment to try out the new OkCupid App. While my success with OkCupid hasn’t been stellar, I wanted to keep up with potential dates, mark profiles for further review, and answer any incoming messages I received.
The OkCupid App, is free and available for the iPhone and iPod Touch. It’s a cool app that keeps you up to date on your OkCupid dating world and works much like the website. It allows you to keep up with your current matches and Quivers, find new matches, favorite and rate profiles, and send and receive messages. Essentially it is OkCupid on the go. There were still a few bugs left with the process. Read the rest of this entry »
What’s Wrong With Me?
Posted by Single City Guy in Dating on January 26, 2010
“To be frank with you, I’m ridiculously surprised that your response rate has been so low. Your cute, your profile is good…,” was the first few lines of Laurie’s response concerning my lack of success with OkCupid. Even with the increased message count, I wasn’t receiving many responses. I feel I’ve become the ultimate dating enigma.
I like OkCupid, but maybe the population on the website isn’t geared for me. Laurie suggested that I switch over to Plenty of Fish, or as I like to call it Plenty of Fail! I’m not a fan of their dating website, it’s horribly put together, ugly, and not ad deep as OkCupid. However my lack of major success on the website leaves me little alternatives.

Do Women Seek One Night Stands?
Posted by Single City Guy in Question for Women on January 24, 2010
There’s a theory that only men go out to have sex. Yet in today’s modern, post-feminist world, I’m finding many examples where women tend to be the aggressor when it coes to seeking sex. I know women think about sex, as much if not more than men. What about seeking sex? I’ve often wondered if women seek one night stands, and how often? Enjoying them is quite a different question.
