Search Results: never turns out like you want it to

Well, I do admit bold guys are attractive my future boyfriend better be polite or I do dump him.

Am I sure I would never be attracted to a rude uncultured swine? 100% positive.

I had two bad boys liking me before and honestly I wanted nothing more than slamming one with a hammer for his lack of manners and slap the second one for embarrassing me in public with his untimely confessions (times in front of the teacher when I would clench fists to stop my hand from gathering strength)

Jerks are jerks, whoever wants to reform them!

Thanks goodness I would never see their faces again in this life 😊🎉

I love daddy so much for the phrase 'I wouldn't mind entering prison for this brat so my daughter is safe, I didn't raise her to cry for someone I has to discipline today in his parents' stead' that stiffened one from going on with his 'jokes' in middle school ever since (good grief I had period of desperation at this time because of him and his gang of friends, if he dared to go for sexual harrasment I would've been the one in trouble for getting violent)

So yeah, I has that hatred for shameless boys, aside from the two who liked me, many likes to tease me and watch me panic or gets angry unless I scream they don't stop like sticky bugs.

Really girls, I'm not you and peopleeach has their preferences, but why go for a deal breaker?

As much as I love my daddy, I can't find his smoking behavior attractive but dangerous, I'm eager for him to reduce if not miraculously stop it.

Alcohol and cigarettes are red alarms when on a partner.

So I do never why some would go for drug dealers or ones with chunni syndrome.

The charm is great but choose your first love (at least) candidates with your head instead of hormones.

I asked mom about why women would choose drunkards she said it's because they're soft-hearted and usually easy-going.

I'm confused, sure dad never hit or screamed at us (mom, sis, me) when he used to drink before I turned 5, there's plenty violent ones.

So this question is mainly to girls but I do be happy to get answers from guys too.

First, I'm 17 years old (even though my profile is showing its 37 because of my sis messing around when I was making my email) and has never been on a relationship.

I used to have a nextdoor neighbor boy younger than me as child and we were such good friends that we'd cry when one isn't home, he moved away shorty after his dad died of cancer, after I finished my first year of elementary school and I felt empty (still dreaming of him occasionally, I don't know if he still remembers me and afraid to meet him again)

I had no younger cousins as my dad is the youngest

When my mom joked about wanting a third child I took it seriously and excitedly told her it has to be a boy! But she never got pregnant out of consideration of our financial situation as mid-class family.

Mom said: "Kids are expensive, grow up and give birth to your own little boy, don't turn to your poor mommy." I still remember the words vividly because of how painfully it hit me!!

Then I set my eyes on my maternal aumt when she got pregnant after getting married late (32-34), the bravest thing I did as kid outside is to poke my classmates to say my aunt is excepting a child and I'm going to be an older sister. When my younger brother turned into a younger sister, not even my favorite milk coffee got my mood better, but I did squeeze a smile to aunt and tried hugging the newborn when they took her home.

The impact of not getting a younger brother has influenced my ideal type.

My preferences leans to a boy a bit younger than me, an extrovert (I'm an introvert) and takes me for places (I'll gladly pay for his bill), NO DRUGS, smoke or drinks, tattoos are fine but piercings gives me chills just by looking, bold, lean-bodied, don't care for only his enjoyment and pull me in his activities, listens when I turn on my chatty mood just as I do for him, caress my hair, see more than one side of me and a bit shorter than me

27F, I’ve officially come to terms with the fact I’ll end up alone. I’ve been on and off the apps for years, I really don’t think I’m that unattractive but the dating apps have indicated otherwise. I get a good bit of matches and guys reach out, it always either dies out or it isn’t reciprocated from the guy or I. I’ve tried almost every app, paid and free. I have one app installed, there was one time last year where I deleted the app for 6 months. Currently, I swipe on profiles maybe every other week or reply to messages 2-3 times per week. I don’t have friends so the apps are my only avenue considering I’m a homebody. I do know they work for some though, people have said I’m cute/attractive etc but guys never approach me in person. I used to purposely hold back and try to play hard to get, now I’m at the point where I have to force myself to open the app and remember to reply to this guy and so forth. I don’t want kids, id be down to get married but really worry about the reality that id have to be sexual knowing guys urges and so. I am not sexual, I haven’t had sex or masturbated in years. Maybe the right guy will change that?
Also, certain things about guys kinda turn me off, almost every guy I’ve known including my dad who I’m close with has dickish/macho tendencies and I don’t have patience for it lol.

TL;DR: does it sound like my dry spell/bad luck with dating apps stem from lack of interest? Or am I bitter?
