I used to think age mattered, but now i'm at a loss. I've met two guys 29/30 that were just sad. I didnt see it, until i interacted with them and i wished we'd neva crossed paths. Guy one claims to have quit his job cos he was tired and didn't get along with his boss, has his Masters and plays a guitar(not a pro). He believes that collecting money from his dad at his age is his dads way of looking after him  . He claims to be caring, but is really quite a sadistic prick who believes that a wife is there to make his meals, have his babies and sit back while he makes decisions for them as a family, basically taking on responsibility without ever being responsible  . Guy two doesn't have a post WAEC qualification, believes that life dealt him a bitter hand, is bitter towards anyone successful and bad mouths them as his way of payback. Mind you, he was sent abroad to study and went there to get into scuffles and looking for get rich quick methods. Comes from a polygamous home, but his mum did so well. People who meet him, describe him as silly, cause his jokes are crude so it's all good fun. He's a bad egg and a leech, who will try and cling to you while being abusive and if you disintangle by some miracle, he'll go about telling tales. Recent one i heard was from the dentist, who claimed he tried to pull a fast one by insisting i refered him to them. The dentist, who only knew me by name wasn't impressed and told me that if that was a friend, he wasn't a good friend, i didn't want to delve any further. I wasn't brought up to believe that guys with flashy cars and big words are the way to go, but some of these men/boys, supposedly educated or exposed are a complete nightmare and turn a sane individual into a frustrated bitch! I want peace i'm not looking for anything right now, but God help me, how do i know who the sensible guys are so i don't push them away for these losers anymore!

I love that last part of your sentence. U see, this is the problem in rela/ship especially when u know exactly wht u looking for but suddently u come across 2 big jokes(men/boys) and the experience they left u with might determine how u treat the next guy u will meet.
U become abit judgmental, mind reader, body language expert, etc. approach every rela/ship with an open mind, don't keep comparing him with the previous failed encounter.
I don't know about other guys but personally i hate it with passion when i'm been compared to an ex by a gf.
U may have to meet 2-4 bad ones b4 hitting the jackpot.
Good luck

the problem is that the aren't many good guys left. you have to look look before you find one. my advice, do not just go for the wealth and their look.

Poster, You come accross as decent and upright, but this is one side of the story. Personally, I must say the experiences you've described in your post are very unfortunate. While life and being in a relationship has all the potentials to be great and wonderful, your experiences have been the opposite. Having said this though, it might also be very important to have some sort of self reflection and self-criticism as it were, since it takes two. are a complete nightmare and turn a sane individual into a frustrated bitch! People will take you as far as you let them, in as much as we are products of our experiences and other factors, I will say: do not allow yourself to be put down and be turned into a bitch (as you said) by these individuals. Try and break yourself from the negative impact of these experiences. The heroine lies in you! Time will heal your pain and in due course you will meet the kind of people you bring you the love, peace and harmony you deserve. But if you allow negative experiences to take over and dominate you, you might come accross the right guys and lose them 'cos of your negative radiations without you knowing it. Or they might sence this and scram. We are often surrounded by happiness and peace. We can make our cups either half-full or half-empty. Be good and good luck with life.

A lot of good guys are around. Look well before you leap. Dont get carried away by physical attractions and wealth. Having come this far now, I assume you know what you want in a relationship so you must be careful.
Past experiences should not make you wary of the next guy that comes. Give it your all and you get all. Dont be judgemental and no comparisons.
Bear in mind no guy is perfect. You have to learn as well to be patient

Permit me to correct you, 'The Wrong Men are Choosing You' I guess there is something in you that is attractive to the 'wrong' men.
The way out is to make change, start doing somethings (like where you meet men, the way you dress/make your hair, your view to life, how you relate to peers, what you do on a first date etc.) differently and you'll be suprised at the power behind change. This could be a few things or a combination of some of the few things mentioned above.
Trust me, it works.

Look into yourself and see if you can make some adjustments that will allow you to accommodate some negativities. You must remember that you are dealing with other human beings. You must learn to tolerate, exercise patience, teach, learn and accept things that you cant change. There is nothing like prince charming out there. There are always faults. So, like someone said up there, dont look for Brad Pitts and Boy Georges alone. Create a room inside your mind for the likes of MR IBU  .

Like sasha said, stop searching!
There's loads to do than search for a man. Focus on your goals and career/education. Improve on yourself. Its the man's job to search and when he does find you, don't push him away.

That is it, stop searching and focus more on you. Try to work towards becoming a better you and focus more on the things you want to achieve. Its just a matter of time, the right man will come along. Please, don,t allow your past experiences to affect how you relate to men.

hear yourself well enough and you will discover you have a wrong approach to men .because of your wrong approach only the wrong men that l you will eventually reject will come your way.
you need to ask yourself what exactly do you want in a man and be expressive enough so that men who dont have it and who are self respecting will simply move away.
you sound like someone with a very high opinion of yourself and i deduced that from your chioce of words.GOD give grace to the humble and resist the proud.out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.until you are the right woman dont expect to find the right man. the meek wil GOD direct.pray for the meek spirit.favour of GOD is needed to find the right man or woman
I like that bolded sentences, They sound spiritual and yet true

The problem with most girls is they look too desperate. Every girl you meet wants to get married. So long as this attitude remains, guys will continue to be dishonest with girls.

I think u need to losen up abit, no one is perfect we all work towards perfection. I would advise that u try another approach, i.e. friendship first then u can take it to any level u want after assessing the guy but it doesn't imply that u know everything about him. So all u need is just be focused and i believe your dream guy is out there waiting to meet. Oh and pray about it first before committing urself and its lovely that u know who u what as a partner. I wish u all the best.

Wow, i'm really surprised. After those incidents I've done a lot of soul searching and I've prioritized certain things, but because it's easier for people who don't know you to be straight with their opinions i decided to post it here for feedback. All of the responses directed at me made sense, and they are things i'm already trying to adopt. I'm just glad i let off steam, it's the only way i could clear my mind and focus on a brighter future. Thanks all.

Just like the common saying, "different tales for different folks" the good guys end up with the wrong girls and the vis-a-vis. Just who is the wrong guy and who is the right girl? I think attitude express it all. like someone said up there, probably u 've got some stuffs in you that you need to dispose, so try and dispose them off and you will find urself sailing in the right ship. Let me draw my curtain with this, Resist the evil within u [stand firm against it], and he will flee from you. meaning the wrong guys will flee from you if you are the right person. Peace!

Do you have nasty habits that turn them off? Attitude problems? Are you a loud mouth? Are you trustworthy? Stubborn?
