The Marines are looking for a Few Good Men

Watch TV?

but loving someone else means being empathetic....it doesnt merit a wedding ring either. I take on my children's problems everyday, because i love them so much...not because the govt requires me too.

once somebody pays your bail.

I feel stupid.....and contagious.......

I definitely read profiles before contact. It's nice to have an idea whether I am likely to get a rotten tomato in the face in return for my attentions.

Well I just had a woman tell me she was interested in me and getting to know me but when I told her some information (which is in my profile) she said she wasn't interested in me. So I just find it rude when you lead a person on when you haven't even bothered to read their profile. I was just curious if I was the only person on here that reads profiles. I keep getting those emails from guyus in other countries too...but i am not looking for a guy so right away they prove they only look at photos

Well..it's kind of difficult when the person looks directly into your face with a smile as opposed to apologizing!

I look at the photo and read the profile, too. They're of equal importance to me--but not for the reason you might think. I couldn't care less whether a guy is "hot." But I do very much care whether he has taken the time to put his best face forward in his photos. I've seen far too many photos on here of men who looked angry with the world, and to me, that is a deal-breaker in itself. I want to see a smiling face because that is the person who is approachable. But that's only half the picture (no pun intended); the profile's important, too. I want to connect with men who share some of my values and my interests, too. I want somebody I can have conversations with--and laugh with.

At the risk of being lynched by the guys for stereotyping them, I suspect (from my experience so far) that guys just look at photos, whereas women read profiles AND look at photos. The reason I suggest this is that I've had several contacts from men who wanted to talk on the phone after a single round of messages. My profile states that I want to move SLOWLY; if they had read that, they'd have saved themselves from time. And since they seem to be in such a rush to enter into a relationship, I'd think they'd want to save time by only contacting like-minded women!

Well, gents? Care to refute my assertion? Or tell me to go suck eggs? I mean no insult, guys. I love men...I think you're terrific. In fact, of all the Lord's creations, I'd have to go so far as to say that men are my favorites--at the very least, right up there with big dogs, tiny kittens, and a big bowl of jambalaya.
