I'm a deaf single guy. I'd like to think I'm not a complete buffoon and can carry an intelligent conversation (depending on environmental noise). First, there's probably the idea that most hearing people get that they can't communicate with deaf people. They're just afraid to try. Some kind of popular culture example needs to be made about that (maybe there was, on "West Wing" with Marlee Matlin?).

If you manage to get past that, then you have to deal with a very peculiar side of the female personality: most women like guys who treat them bad and don't consider having relationships with nice guys. When they eventually grow up and ask, where are all the nice guys... well the most likely answer is here.

It eventually gets to the point that, some people go 'why bother', while others just stop caring and move onto getting better jobs or better skills or doing hobbies or whatever. There's a lot of free time that's available when you're not in a relationship, and sometimes (especially for the folks who's burnt out on getting the raw deal) it's a lot more fun being alone and not worried about being frustrated about relationships (or getting one).

And we all know that it'll happen when you're not looking.

inochi · 07-15-2008, 07:07 AM

Is it me or most of the post here is "blaming" for the lack of better term women for the reason why they are single?

Brian · 07-15-2008, 07:17 AM

I am single - kind of by choice. I do date sometime, but I haven't really found the right girl.

There is nothing wrong being single. More people, nowadays are single - whether or not by choice.

inochi,
I know I'm going to get in a little bit of trouble here but, they are partially correct when it comes to Amercian women being to blame. Even my Brazilian GF says American women have been on the decline for several years now. They have become greedier, they want men to be men but more like women-hairless bodies, touchy feely, emotional. More and more American men are looking to other country's to find their soulemate-Brazil, Russia, Asia-who can blame them. Feminism in America is out of touch these days.

cdaigle430 · 07-15-2008, 12:45 PM

As for all men, if you are having a hard time finding a gratefull woman in America, look elsewhere-you won't regret it.

Why? Why should men have to pay $$$$ just to meet women outside the United States/North America?

I want my man to be more like woman? That is new to me!

I dont need a woman-like man. I prefer my man to be ALL man to me.

*sarcastic* Exactly! Why pay when you can get an American woman for free?

I m used to being blamed by men but they dont get to me - I find it all silly and sad. If it makes them feel good about themselves, so let it be

Maybe these men want women to kiss their asses but American women wont. I say, "good for the American women!!!"

Hey men...time for you all to fly out of the country and search your soulmates. OOOH...what happens to the men who live in the other countries when American men take all the women away from them? OOOH, maybe we American women can take them!

That chip on the shoulder on a man is so attractive.

Of course, the best revenge is living well. I hope everyone does have a good life and be happy in whatever "legal" things they choose to do.

Gemma · 07-15-2008, 01:28 PM

Can we all get along nice now? Frankly this is getting on my nerves - seeing how people blame the other gender and assuming that just because one person did that, it means the entire gender would do it.

Let's just focus on individuals, NOT GENDER. Man I have been screwed over by a lot of men in my life but I dont blame entire gender. I know that there are still some many wonderful NICE (yes I say NICE) men left and I hope to find mine someday. *crossing fingers*

It just annoys me to see men blasting women left and right just like what HorseRace said above - let s all get along! We would have to get along because the bottom line is that we cannot live without each other! (whether it be straight, gay/lesbians or bi)

I agree..when I see something so ridiculous, I poke fun at it.

Does that mean it doesn't annoy you to see women blast men left and right?

Of course it does. I tell my girlfriends to remember it is individual, not the gender, that they are upset with. Just because that guy they were dating or married is/was a dud it doesnt mean they should blast entire gender and refusing to date others because they see the entire gender as no-good.

I only made that statement in response to what HorseRider was saying.

While there are those women that have a pattern of being attracted to abusive type relationships, it is hardly the majority of women, and certainly not all. This type of behavior is not inherent in the female personality any more than being an abusive asshole is inherhent in the male personality.

Perhaps the indipendent women are not to blame. Maybe its more the insecurity of the male ego that can't handle a relationship with an equal.

Yeppers. That chip is probably what is attracting the wrong kind of woman.
