I'm so picky when it comes to guys. When a guy is hella hot but then when I see some dirt on him or some turn off that are just little things, I tend to start getting away from him. Even when I know that there's no perfect guy, I seem to always look for that. Am I being too picky? And is this bad?

You can be as picky as you want, it doesn't matter. It's when you've shunned all the potential guys away that the loneliness will kick in. You'll start to see past the flaws and accept the guy inside, but it sounds like it might take a while.

You can't expect him to be perfect unless you are confident you are. If you aren't, try to focus on qualities that you find most important and cut him some slack elsewhere. Little imperfections or oddities can sometimes be kind of endearing.

Everyone's a little picky, it can't be helped. Everyone has those little things. And some people just naturally set the bar high. But it does seem like you're a little too picky. There is no perfect guy, and there never will be. The "right" guy will always have something. You might turn away a million guys just because he has, I don't know, a speck of dirt on his jacket, or has a tendency to smack gum. If you can't see past the flaws that everyone has, you'll miss every opportunity and eventually turn away all the people who would have been perfect for you. I know that sounds a little intense-don't worry there's nothing wrong! Just try harder to look past that stuff, and you'll see that there are some really great guys out there.

OH NO!!! I think that there is nothing wrong with what you want to spend your time with, as with me I always set my standards high, so my expectations of a person can never fail me.

Well, picky isn't always good but dumping a guy for dirt is not either, at a point gotta give em slack!

I think that you are a little to picky. When you nit pick that much you are just setting yourself up for heartbreak. You are too young to be that set in what you want.

It's best to get off your high horse for a while and get a real picture of what is out there.

Picky is not a bad thing. You have high standards and know what you want. You are not out there trying to make yourself look desperate when it comes to a guy.

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
I usually ask the girl where she wants to go and try to create something based on that. Typical stuff, dinner, maybe a movie, bowling. Ideally I would give her a short kiss goodnight if things went well but that's the most. I wouldn't push for too much more.

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
I would tell her about my job and a little bit about my family to give her an idea of my background. I would hope she would think I am a genuine and caring person.

Would you date me?
