I am in the "If I can't say something nice, don't say anything at all" mood today!

whats up with Irish guys? second woman that pointed them out...

It's because their accents were voted the Worlds sexiest Moe. Any Irish lassies that i've met in the past though preferred Scottish accents, to their own ones. Odd eh?

i guess... the accent makes the man...lol, no wonder the divorce rate is so high, women are crazy...

I know! If they actually got to meet those Irish guys they would be running away when they see how mad they get when they're drunk? Ha ha, us Scots are the same? Nuts!!!

The sexiest accent in the world? You gotta be kidding me? I don't find top of the morning accent particularly sexy at all
Not sure about Irish men in general, just know the one and he was a total w@nker. Beat the chit out of my girlfriend, his partner, who'd moved to Ireland. And she's far from the kind of woman who'd put up with a guy like that, not timid, not a small girl either. But she got the beating nonetheless. That story and vision stuck with me, so much so, that I'd never dare date an Irish man.
As for the drinking, all you people across the channel seem to do that, haha. The English are pretty bad as well. Maybe something to do with the weather

Sorry for calling you that..datwasntme!!!
I'm the fool! Should have known why you chose not to comment! Missed this in the long write up

Why have the attitude that someone is out of your league though? I had knock backs from women before, when i was dating, then they found out i owned my own house and business and were then asking me for a date? Sorry, they had the chance when they didn't know that about me, but when they did, it was all change? Just shows you how shallow some people are though? Anyway, i'm married now and settled down with a genuine lassie. Glad i waited also!

Well Nenew you wrote a lot, but didn't say much about what you want. Or, why you are here.

Might I recommend some light reading?

... most women want a man who is a provider, which dates back to prehistoric days, and they certainly don't want to end up with a man who is struggling financially because that means she would have to struggle as well.

It's not that men have "settled" it's that someone finally DIDN'T reject us. The truth of the matter is that you probably had your chance DOZENS of times but you rejected each time because you thought
you could do better. What beautiful women fail to grasp is that sooner or later beauty fades.

Why do men end up with "less attractive" women?

Again I do not believe it is that they "settled". Maybe some have
but I don't think most men would marry a women they didn't see
as beautiful.

And there's the rub. YOU do not see these women as beautiful
but men do. I'm not even talking about inner beauty here.

Another idea is that these women WERE what you may call beautiful
but their beauty has over time faded away due to aging.

Of course intimidation is a factor. But it's less so that beauty
intimidates men then attitude. If you're cold then men will
probably not want to approach you regardless of how you look.

Plus I would suspect that a lot of men are like me, afraid to make the first move. I don't just go up to a girl and say hi most of the time because I feel like if I'm honest that I'm going to look like a creep. Since I can't come up with a good segway most times I just end up not ever talking to the girl. Even though I really want to.

Finally opportunity is a huge influence.
There are plenty of times that I have seen very beautiful
women but I pretty much could not talk to them due to circumstances.
Or at the very least I didn't know how. For example while walking to work another girl was walking to the bus stop. I wanted to talk to her but I have no idea how to do so without it seeming creepy.
I'm not very good at small talk. I like to get straight to the point.
But it's not easy for me to just say "You're beautiful."
I don't consider myself that attractive and worse than that I'm
extremely awkward. Put that together and you get this creepy lonely loser. :(

At the same time I have had great opportunities to talk to beautiful women but I just couldn't mustard the courage.

Then again I don't really talk much to anyone beautiful or otherwise. I don't hang out in big groups. I barely know
any girls.

Henceforth why I am even here. Because it's so much easier
to write hi than it is to say it. Too bad it's also easier to ignore.
