The cut? Please clarify.
I know one lady who throws herself at money men or blokes with high powered salaries - sorry - jobs and she isn't getting anywhere, apart from being shagged left right and centre.
I told her to forget money, go for someone who's OK and hope for the best.Chocoholic wrote:Well yes, if you're a superficial, shallow person only after money etc then you're never going to find any decent guys are you.
I'm really sad, I had the most amazing date with an awsome guy, got along like a house on fire. Sadly he's leaving Dubai - damn it!
By saying “they don’t make the cut” I didn’t mean they don’t make a lot of money….!!!???
Making the cut is an American idiomatic expression meaning they don’t meet one’s expectations. Just like also saying “they don’t make the grade.”
I keep forgetting that this a multinational community and people here don not always understand American idioms!
The last criterion for me in evaluating any prospect is probably how much money he makes. I make plenty of money myself, with a big salary and bonuses, so money is not, and has never been, an issue for me.

Is it expected to be a life time, or to be ended ASAP, or ended once we find a chance to end it up?
Is it real LOVE?
Does it guarantee the rights of each one over the other?
again I am asking about "REAL".
cheers.

Who says being single means being alone? Most single people are socially active and have a lot of friends.
But there comes a time in the life of the single person where he or she wants to settle down and starts a family of their own. It’s more acute and pressing for a woman to do so because of her biological clock which starts ticking in her late 20’s.
But she first has to find the elusive Mr. Right.
How to find him is the $64,000 question!!!

Every girl is looking for Mr Right. You have to find a lot of Mr Wrongs and one or two Mr Maybe's before you settle on the man of your dreams. An evening over dinner or in a club is not going to give enough information and it is a slow process.
Where to meet them? That has been covered here many times. People here can give you advice but not find him for you, that would be like RobbyG's dating service...which would end up with you spending $64,000 and him spending some time in jail!

A real relationship is where each person cares about each other, is in love - not merely lust. They want to know how each other's day went, they want to spend time together doing hobbies, eating etc. They get to know each other and the relationship grows deeper. I know this dating culture doesn't mesh with some other's cultural beliefs, but for others it is essential for choosing who they marry. True, not everyone gets married, but still have a personal commitment to each other like a marriage. The commitment, love and respect is what is important. (Although, when it comes time to have kids I don't know why couples don't get married. Kids are more permanent than a piece of paper attesting marriage.)

the 3 words u used are just great, and I wish all the girls now know if her partner do really offer that, same to men some women knows nothing about respecting her man's wishes or opinion..... specially when it comes to shopping
