I also hate seeing - over and over and over - women sticking with some guy who treats them horribly while I can't get someone. Lately, though, I'm so bitter and full of hatred that - well, the other day at work a couple came up and they both were being cool - the guy was being especially friendly, trying to engage me in conversation, and seemed like he might be a very cool guy who I would otherwise have really enjoyed talking with - both the man and woman just seemed cool - at the time I realized all this and yet, emotionally, all I could feel toward them was hatred and resentment - because he was with such a beautiful, cool-seeming woman and I have no one.</p>JamesSat, 30 Jan 2010 05:19:10 -0000http://www.meetmarketadventures.com/singlesdatingblog/?p=258#comment-18395843<p>My eyes roll, they sure do whenever I hear those stories. Re being knocked down, how about writing about being a single woman in her 40s with g. herpes, or rather, the STIGMA of herpes and problems in the dating world with such a thing. I don't have a problem with having the virus, but I do have a problem with discrimination and being treated like damaged goods, or as if I should have a H on my forehead, and dealing with men who don't give me the time of day even when I've had the guts to tell them about it. Get real people, it's not the end of the world, there's more to me than having an STD, and there's more to life too. So when I read these articles, my perspective is, doesn't even matter anymore, I've given up on dating and finding a life partner. The pool of available men who can tolerate this is very, very small, and from within that pool, to find my type of man = next to impossible.</p>Mishka2009Sat, 03 Oct 2009 16:45:01 -0000
