this reminds me of the famous " roast me" memes. deep down, we want to be liked, but putting your profile out for being graded, will find a way to hurt you. we are all behind a screen, there are plenty of people who don't care if they hurt you. at times it seems we haven't left middle school, trying to make the most friends with the opposite sex as possible. not all of us can be the home coming king and queen

Ummm, errrr, I got nothing.

Well for one, you don't have to be rated, you asked to be....that said, it sounds angry and confusing. You say we can't have you but you are what we need....also change the photos, need front head shots with you smiling.

I 'kinda' agree with you. But why 'smiling'?

women like to see the men smiling.....

women can play hard to get, be aloof and pretty much ask for the man to beg. we have done this since the beginning of time. bottom line, you can discard the proofs, it's all the same, women know that they have what men want. so lets turn the game around. i am not a stud bull, nor will i be a sucker for the same game over and over. i can and do say NO; that alone keeps women confused, "hey, he took it away from me". just like you know, men at my age group and older, are few and far between, its a fact. i get hundreds of likes all day long. 90% are scammers, other 10% i have to weed thru. no one likes being rejected, so i don't go begging for likes. i am here for my future. as in everything else, time is on my side. just grabbing the first woman who comes along, is not a option. like yourself i am sure you have been down this road before. against what you think, i have plenty of offers. we all have our differences, and this is me. as for smiling; my teeth are not pearly whites, parents when i was you could not afford the help i should have had, my sister was the same. i smile for people, i just don't have many of me smiling. sorry.

OP: If you do not want to be rated, then don't post in the Rate My Profile thread.

i never asked nor did i want to be rated. i only wished to say i found it amusing like that of the people who ask to be roasted. again, most of us, don't want to be publicly humiliated. even if it's jest. i believe, in our quest for attention, many people might wish to be rated; you would have to have a thick skin. now i doubt one would be attacked per se, alas, this is not a place with delicate feeling.

Soooo, you were mocking people that want to be rated since it is an exercise in futility and possible humiliation?

Sounds good to me.

yes and no; mocking people who "roast me" memes. if you take a look, you'll see what i mean. these posts are plain evil. no one is secure from the roasting. as it applies here, do you not think that rate me's risk having their feelings hurt? visions of school bulliies and meanies come to mind. or do you have no issue with some one purposely attacking you since you , out of good faith, asked to be rated? i am talking about human nature. the ladies asked for different photos, i changed mine around. i just wince when i see people acting in a manner not being nice. maybe i am wrong, folks here give accolades for everyone on rate me. BUT life is not pretty, hence my words

You did ask to be rated. That is what the Rate My Profile is. If you did not want to be rated then you should have posted your original post in the General discussion thread.

I think seeking validation and advice from strangers on the internet is silly no matter how the strangers behave, but that's just my opinion.

Yup, this.
Your OP is rather judgemental. People asking for a serious rating usually get a serious rating.

as my topic was rate me really? I was not even close to asking about being rated. I never asked to be rated neither. and for saying that if you want to be rated and rated you will be, I call BS. only arrogant profiles would be picked apart. if Sadie001, 72 posted, I will bet money all her responses will be positive. "Roast Me" and "Rate me" are two different beasts. you can try to read between my lines, or misquote me and the points I made are still the same. what is it, don't like some one else coming to the party?

in fact, I have found even the masters of the topics, have stated that they are only on this site as to moderate the posts, rather than to meet someone. reminds me of singles dances; there's aways a few couples who were in fact married. they'll tell you, it's they enjoy the company of the friends they made. truth is, they didn't do any one any favors. you can't dance with them, unless you are part of their little click, and you damn sure are not going to be able to hit on them.

People's reasons for using the forum is an entirely personal thing. Some, are in fact, here for friends. Others to kill time when bored and so on. If that's a problem for you and you do not like them posting in this particular forum then don't post here.

Clearly, you're not here to make friends. Are you this antagonistic in real life as well? Or does the bombast come from being behind a keyboard?

Let me ask you a simple question. What Forum thread did you post your original topic in?

I had to read several rate me posts to see the replies,and I really don't understand why you got a problem with it, because the replies look quite helpful. I think that only a person who can't take criticism would have an issue with it, and thus should not ask to be rated,as it would mean that they were just seeking for attention and are disappointed when it didn't go their way.
