Brought back from the d e a d? Ah! Run it's the ole one year old OP thread trick. Who'dathunkit? I didn't even look at the date.

Guess I'm Human. Wait a minute, the OP "no longer exists?" Hey!
Was she sent to a FEMA labor camp in Alaska and killed? Btw how do you KNOW she doesn't exist?

You must be a double agent...

Just noting that this thread was started over a year ago and was brought back from the dead today after being dormant for a very, very long time.

The OP no longer posts here and it's extremely unlikely that she will see any of the responses. Feel free to respond to the general question, but there is no need to direct your response to the OP.
it's probably better that we only give advice to people who will never see it.

I prefer open and aggressive women particularly when it comes to making the first move.

I'm just me all the time. The way I see it , Either you like me or you don't but either way my life will go on like it did before I met you". I control my feelings, I refuse to let anyone take power over my feelings. I say a prayer and turn it all over to God. Life is to short to dwell on what was or what could have been. Time to move on and make new memories.

I think that there is such a thing as too agressive and there is such a thing as too shy/passive. To be either is just asking to be dumped. Most men don't react well to being intimidated. Nobody likes having to walk on top of glass when it comes to their mate. Everyone wants someone who will spend time on them. I do not belive that most men would like a mate where they have to proverbially pull the teeth out of to get them to do anything.

I think that it is a great thing that there are more and more women who are willing to be proactive about what they want. We aren't mind readers. There are guys out there who are flexible enough, and probably confident enough to deal with an "aggresive woman." Again just not too agressive.

There are always exceptions though.......

p.s. Ask your male family/friends if you are too "difficult," or you can watch their reactions you being around you

Also, I forgot, beware the men who only want s ex. They will tell you anything to get it. Bottomline, target your search to the type of man you are looking for [yes online women who use a dating website should be searching and initiating many matches a week.]

Good luck women. I don't mean to bash aggressive women. Perhaps it's because I'm aggressive myself and prefer a more introverted woman [or ambivert-half and half.]

In the end, the only thing that matters, is your results. Like looking for a job, online dating requires us all to ocassional stand back, check out what is working and what isn't...and adjust according.

Happy hunting!@
From reading your posts, its no wonder you feel you are the target of parental alienation. I wouldn't let you around my kids either with all that anger.

Take a pill dude!
