I'm 26...haven't been in a relationship since my divorce 2 years ago and have recently just started going out lately. I've tried everything, but it seems like I just end up meeting the same type of stereotypical girl out there. At the bars, which I know isn't the best place to meet someone to date, it's always meet a girl who is usually looking to get banged and move on..they're usually complete losers when you try to know them. The internet thing just doesn't work as the area I'm from doesn't really have anything too decent looking on there (not meaning looks look, but profile wise) and blind dates usually result in meeting up with someone with so many issues they're going through at the current moment. My only question is......where are the decent women hiding at? The romantic types who aren't shallow and don't care about douchebag things...the beautiful inside and out girls. It seems this whole Paris Hilton/Britney Spears/Linsday Lohan era has tainted the young women out there.

Wow, some of you had some great and funny points to bring up. And yeah, with so many men AND women looking for a decent other these days....either someone is lying or we're just all too busy trying to find a perfect other, when they're right under our nose. Anyhow I guess the only way to find them is to keep looking and looking until one day you just strike it lucky. Thanks everyone.

Geesh Toronto ,your a rude sack of potatoes !
answer the poor guy nicely !
I'm single and don't hang anywhere because I spend all day working and race home before it gets dark. Guess you will have to go Door to Door and look for me and the other gals all hibernating during the winter time ! P.S. don't forget we eat and we will be seeing you soon in the grocery store

hmmm, trying going into a place that would attract nice, normal people, such as a bookshop or something. then just strike up a conversation. you never know what will happen!
I know how you feel abot always meeting the wrong people. I have the same issue with meeting nice guys who aren't interested in just sleeping with me. It's very frustrating, ut I know eventually I'll meet a great guy who likes me for who i am, not how i look. Good luck to you!!! :)

I was in your same boat. So I know how you feel. But the internet thing worked for me. That's how I met my finance. There are some really good personal websites out there, match.com is one of them.
Other than tha all I can tell you is to let nature take it's course. Someone will come around eventually. Just don't stop trying... You have to kiss alot of fogs to find a prince (or princess in your case)

If any of us on this yahoo board actually was in a serious relationship we would not have time to open up a chat session with strangers ..... so just maybe none of us knows how to meet and keep a relationship going ! It takes huge amounts of work and who wants to do that when we could sit in front of our computers and be wise-guys

Honestly, I feel your pain. I am lucky enough to be with a really great guy, but it does seem that society is going downhill quite a bit lately in the moral aspect of things. Don't worry, you'll find her eventually. Just be patient.

I'm with ya. I think are are in a different country. Or in a different time period.
Off course, women seem to ask the same question about decent men. They think they are already married. Guess we aren't "good" men until we get married, giving legal access to our monetary funds... Sorry enough of my tirade.

There are women in bars who have good lives, are good people, have good careers, and who respect themselves.
I think you're going to the wrong kinds of bars.
**I'm not biased because I haven't been to a bar in over 20 years.
