After yet another bad date, I am starting to believe that I am cursed as well. Similar to your herp man...I had a guy tell me he had HPV. He was surprised when I said I didn't have any STDs...no he wasn't surprised he was shocked and kept asking "really?".
Yes! I've encountered this too... I don't get it!!
And well... that's always the last date with that guy. Call me silly, but I don't want to belong to that club.

Double negative kiddo. That doesn't make sense.
If, however, you're saying that I'm bragging: OK.
Made perfect sense to me.

BTW the frogs post does not contain a double negative. There should have been a comma in it though.

I am picky. I want a man with compassion, patience, morals, values, fun, adventure, sexy, fit, handsome, and wants to be a family man.

....or I could just be cursed. : )
I wonder how many men with compassion, patience, high morals and values you have passed by with nary a second glance because you did not find them to be sexy, fit or handsome enough?

OMG don't feel alone. . Me too is almost anoying. I a fully sef supporting professional. I am attractive and try to take care of myself inside and out. Why am I attracting trhese individuals that list a profession but in reality do not work. I have a strong work ethics . At 49 I am hardly looking to retire. If you are not working list retired as your occupation. LIES and LIES is what I have found in my last two dates . OMG . Another thing if when I'm going out I take care of my feet my hands and my hair and look nice . Please do the same. At least put some cologne. OMG . I have a list. but you more or less get the picture. I'm in prayer bcause I refuse to give up.

Some men actually forego cologne until they know their date isn't allergic to scents (true!... bless their thoughtful hearts!).

Well those are things that are important to me. Physical attraction plays a large part in relationships and being fit and healthy is even more important. Health isn't something to take lightly.

Hollywood is full of absolutely, stunningly beautiful, health-conscious, fit couples. I guess it seems important to them too. Unfortunately... there doesn't seem to be a lot of longevity in their relationships. Makes me wonder.

Here is the simple truth, sisters: all good ones are taken.

I've snatched myself a "good" one on eH - handsome, fit, stable, sense of humor, lives near by, etc etc. Clicked together right away. Guess what - there is a reason why he is single... Nothing horrible though. I just know that it will not be easy to overlook, comes the time to decide on the next step.

Another simple truth (borrowed from one of my matches): there is a reason why we all meet on eH.

Didn't mean to sound cynical or shallow. Next time you look at your matches - turn off the picture . You will be able to see past the pretty boys. Makes it so much more interesting.

(Note: I'm not sure eH would let you turn off the picture by choice).

If we want to throw around these kinds of cliches, that can be said for both women and men. The good men who are taken are with the good women ... that's the logical deduction, otherwise their relationships wouldn't last.

So the simple truth, brothers: all the good ones are taken.

Personally, I don't believe this and I think it is a shallow and cynical approach to dating. Whatever floats you boat though.
