HI brandie
I'm surprised you haven't said Maya Angelou. Not that I like her; I don't.DarkMinxMish wrote:Hello Simon and Winston,
Yeah I like poetry and I like to write. My favorite poets are Edgar Allen Poe, John Keats, William Blake, Robert Frost, and such. Though my favorite poems are Goblin Market and The Lady of Shallot ~sighs~ if I could write half as well as that I'd be ecstatic. I'm into art and stuff along those line and then I fell in love with mythology, fantasy, and the Pre-Raphaelites when I was in school. I haven't read Our Mothers though I have to check that out. Yeah I like the site so far and it's balance of advice and opinons. The trolls are apart of life so no harm.
As for how did I get the way I am um...lol I'm just a naturally curious person who grew up drawing and reading tons.
I don't like people to tell me what to do and how to think of course, but I'm not against taking in info or advice.
Also to me it isn't that odd for there to be females like me in the U.S. I mean it just depends on the crowd you hang with and the types of people you are exposed to. If your only exposed to the people on your block, or city then you'll have a pretty narrow point of view.
This is solely my opinion, but if some guys have been burned or turned off by U.S women then so be it. But that leaves you looking at all the others with a bias that the few who did that to you left.
There are plenty of intelligent smart women out there it's just that maybe on the surface it doesn't seem so.
Once you get to know someone or hang around them you can be completely surprised by what you'll discover about someone and that there is far more depth in them then what was once thought.
I just learned not to take people for granted and life experience has taught me to keep an open mind.
A lot of American men and women are smart. It's just the one's that are scared to be so or who are dummies(ignorant to the facts) that drag the rest of us down. Plus I like to question things even if that means playing the devils advocate and having people despise me for a while.
I don't really mind, because I find it amusing usually.
Sometimes I feel like I'm living in a plastic world and it suffocates me to the point where I have to have solitary time away from people.
It's draining, depressing, and irritating, but I've learned to suck it up. I have felt out of step with people like my morals and views are either old fashioned, backwards, or I' come from a different world. I see nothing wrong with not being greedy, rude, and in the rat race 24/7.
I know there something wrong with this country, but I'm not sure how to fix it....but of course my friends and family think I'm naive and spacy/odd/crazy. I doesn't really phase me like it use to. I know I live in a sick society and I'm aware of that.
That may be true in theory. However, the reality is that for many men, the odds are simply extreme. Every decent woman in the US is super picky. Some even reject 100 percent of their admirers. Many guys get blown off by 100 percent of women they meet. It's really that bad, no kidding! After 1000 women reject you, flake out on you, give you fake numbers, screen out your calls, make excuses not to see you, or just want to be friends, you too will overgeneralize them. Sometimes extreme generalizations are justified, as in this case. It's one of those things you have to experience to really understand. Either way, the odds are overwhelmingly against many guys. Some guys always get rejected, others get dates but they turn out to be psycho, and others have to wait 2 or 3 years just to meet one girl that will date them.DarkMinxMish wrote: This is solely my opinion, but if some guys have been burned or turned off by U.S women then so be it.

Winston I get what your saying it's tough for men to find someone who isn't picky, superficial, and fickle. I think the culture is as much to blame as some of the women are though. But yeah if you were denied that many times that's more then enough to lower someone's self esteem and put some cracks in the armor. But don't think it's that different for women though. The same thing happens to us and many women are highly insecure and really don't take rejection well period. I know if I really liked someone and they rejected me that would have me closed off for weeks. Not only did I put myself out there, but I'd overanalyze it and think I did something stupid in the end. Dating is hard for most people and with the highly superficial attitudes floating around now it's getting worst. A lot of people I have liked I don't usually take the chance to tell them, because rejection is terrifying personally.Winston wrote:That may be true in theory.
