My 9 year old asked me a difficult question last year, but my answer (I think) applies here...She wanted to know why folks like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton got so much attention if being a modest and giving person was such an attribute...My Response....Honey - they get attention because they make sure that their every mundane move is visible....You Don't Find Diamonds Lying Around On The Street....they are rare and therefore harder to spot...But The Hunt is so worth it.....May You Find Your Own "Diamond Man" in the New Year...grace

Well, I think they're either gay or married. At least that's what I've always heard! My dad's available! He'd love to have someone. He's loyal, hard-working, drug and alcohol free, honest, funny, intelligent, loves the outdoors, sports, oh I could go on and on!

I'd love to find a guy with the great qualities that my dad has, but it's very hard.

There's a saying that could be applied to just about any situation: "If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you've always got.."
Just live, and take advantage of every opportunity, even if someone doesn't seem your "type" at first. Love will come when you aren't looking.

MacD, I love that! Another thing you can tell your daughter is, while Paris Hilton gets a lot of attention, she doesn't get a lot of respect. Many guys that want to be with her only want to have sex, and would toss her out the same night.

Lex, marry your dad! LOL! He sounds pretty cool. I've got a boyfriend, and I'm not an outdoors-y type of person (although I hope to get into a fitness lifestyle that'll involve me become more of one), and I hate sports (although I'm really cool with making a bunch of snacks and picking up beer if my guy wants to have friends over to watch the game--just don't make a big mess, or you'll be cleaning up and HEARING about it! LOL!), or I'd ask for more information. Where Have All The Good Men Gone?

Dubz, another suggestion: There are no guarantees, but try placing a personal ad. You might get lucky. Not to discourage you, but besides possibly receiving responses from weirdos, I read somewhere that men typically only read one or two lines of personal ads before responding. I believe that, because I used to place personal ads, and I can't tell you how many responses I got from men who had OBVIOUSLY not read my ad. And I firmly believe plenty of men respond based on photos, without reading the ads at all. But there are those who do read the full ad. If you decide to do that and want some help writing an ad, PM me and I'll give you some tips.

well................hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. not wanting to stereotype here, but i don't think there are that many out there. a few. but as i grow more mature, i see that a lot of men want a "momma"...not a relationship. and my deal is this, i reared four children and i ain't starting on another one.

i'd love to meet someone who has a life and a positive outlook on where he is and where he is going. i work so hard to keep going forward and i'd like to have someone who works equally hard on that. or at least takes one or two steps forward every day. Where Have All The Good Men Gone?

on the up side, i've had some hysterical dates (not that they were funny while i was having them) and some good laughs with my women friends. but i've also grown more cautious about going out. i got so bored one night, listening to a man recite his life back to 1969, that i started wondering if i could slit my throat with my truck keys. Where Have All The Good Men Gone? and it didn't help that the couple in their 80s, with bright red hair, Where Have All The Good Men Gone? kept rolling their eyes at me and giggling..they were sitting slightly diagonally to me and he couldn't see them. but they could hear every word he was saying and i'm sure they saw my glazed eyes. Where Have All The Good Men Gone? Where Have All The Good Men Gone?xoxoxo pat

LOL! I've had some doozies of dates, too! Some were funny, a lot weren't (not generally horrible, but just not great).

Yeah, a lot of guys want a girl who'll cook, clean, do their laundry, etc. Some guys shop outside the USA or their country for a mail-order bride who'll be more submissive and do all that stuff. Hmmm...maybe I should look for one...not for a romance or anything, but I wouldn't mind someone doing all that stuff for me, for free! Where Have All The Good Men Gone?
