Do You Ever Feel Like Swearing Off Men For Dating Purposeses?
Every time I think I’ve meet a good guy to date they turn out not to be what I think they are. They turn out to be a liar, a broke loser, or just wanting to get laid. I’m so sick of it all. I think I want to just give up on dating completely. Anyone else feel the same way?

lol—I gave up on dating since August of last year, because I felt the same exact way. Ever since that month, no one has asked me out; which so far I’m happy with because there’s no one that I know that I want to date. And besides, I’m enjoying my single life as long as I can, before God sends my husband-to-be to me. For most people, you are only single once, and married for a life-time.
Also, I understand where you are coming from—-most of my friends in highschool are either married or seriously dating people; and I have 5 siblings (I’m the youngest), 4 of those siblings are married, and the sister closest to me just got engaged on Sunday—–so I’m the only single person left in my family.

Well, I’m married so obviously I didn’t give up, but I made the joke to a few friends a while back right before meeting my now-husband, “Sometimes I consider lesbianism to deal with my inability to find a good man!” (Not that I think one should consider lesbianism as something you can just decide to be one day.)
Sometimes the best way to find something you really want/need is to stop looking.
Anyway, don’t give up.

LOL, who hasn’t been battling this? The same thing just happened to me again! Funny thing is every time I say I am done, someone else comes along. Yup I think that little saying we have to kiss a lot of toads is true. It does say kiss “not lay”. So to protect your heart don’t let them have what they all want and can get everywhere. We get hurt much more when we give in and we feel used. If they really like you they will stick around with out doing that right away.

I swore off of love, I told the guys I met that I would date them only,,,no sex and If I ever heard the word LOVE, That would be the end of it.
The first guy I dated with my rules set is now my husband for the last 16 years,,,,,,,,so much for rules.

I do all the time. I recently found out boyfriend was cheating on me with my best friend. Earlier in my romantic life I was constantly being used and I got my heart broken many times. Each time, I swore I would never date again. But unfortunately, I still haven’t learned my lesson.

Hell yeah. I think about it everyday. I think about how many losers do I have to go through to meet a good guy? Am I not deserving? All my friends are settled, married, or with really great men but me…I just attract the absolute WORST people.
Im done too!

Yeah I agree with you all the way. There are alot of *** holes out there but i don’t agree with the first comment since you’re not giving all nice guys like myself a chance. I for one hate all the girls I meet because they are all bitches….

i know… some of the previous guys i met are just so agh!
i guess sometimes i do want to swear them off but you know, i can’t be boyfriend-less for long

I’ve been with my girlfriend for almost 3 years now, and I love her for who she is.
There will be someone for you, just like there’s someone for those liars, losers, or jerks.

Absolutely. I read once that when you’re in a “bad boyfriend dating rut” you should take a break from dating altogether for at least 3 months. I don’t know if it works… According to Cosmo it does…
