Hi every one I would like to start by saying there are so many helpful people on this site and I hope there's a few on here who can help me out. Well my names kayla and I would love some advise on how to and where to find a right guy all the ones I have dated have turned out to be total jerks and has stopped me getting out there and meeting people and have not been with any one for three years. If any one has any ideas I would like to hear them.

Hi! How are you? I only hit woman with my left hand as it is the weaker of my godly hands. I never shout too loudly at my woman and only start eating my dinner if she is done cooking it. I ask only that my food be fresh, and she bare as many children as Damion our lord would allow.

I think you can find really nice guys almost anywhere. The trick is to dump the AssHol** when you find them to be jerks. My sisters always hooked up with mean guys with tempers and wasted so much of their young lives. Most of the guys I know are so great towards woman, I can't imagine it being that hard to find one.

Hello, Kayla!
The first thing that I want to ask you is, why do you think that you need to find a man, please?

OK... Honestly, maybe that is why you are single? You clearly are far too sensitive. It was a JOKE! Lighten up! I answered your stupid question, I'm hitched and do not use a dating service. Go pick a fight with a date and calm down! I'm going to bed.

Often we look for someone to be our equal,our alternate,or our opposite.
What are your expectations to finding a suitable mate?
Are you looking in the right direction to begin with?
Internally is the place to start,not 'out there'
Make plans,just don't plan the outcome,let that part happen on its own.
Hope this helps,
Ken

Greg Quinn agrees: Nothing... Someone who is joking... I do not use a dating service, please! Y does Clough keep typing "please?"
Because politeness might not be the thing in which you are the most well-versed. I would suggest that you might need some work on you...

God made everyone a soul mate. We all have had bad relationships. I would just go on with my life and you will find him. Just take all your bad relationship and learn from them. That way you can grow as a person. When you stop looking , he will come along.

That way you can grow as a person. When you stop looking , he will come along.The fact is you might find the right man & you might not. There are plenty of people out there who can't get a date or have never been married to testify to that fact. Don't believe all the crap that the right one will come along sooner or later. The right one might & he might not. The only thing you can do is to keep looking & keep hoping.

I have a lot of mental issues when it comes to guys. One realationship I was in affected me really badly and I'm almost to scard to get into another. I was hurt bad and I can't shake that and I still have night mares to this day I just feel asthough I can't trust anymore and if I am with a guy I make sure I don't have feelings or get attached.

I know its really difficult to move on mentally and emotionally from a bad relationship. So I wish you the best of luck. If you are scared you can't trust anymore - or you won't let yourself get attached - then Don't get into another relationship, because its not fair to the other person as well. Maybe you should go see someone and talk about what happened, do something for yourself to gain yourself esteem and passion back.
As for finding another guy : Sometimes - people settle for less than they deserve because they'd rather have 'less' than have nothing at all. When you are in a relationship with someone and realize they are a jerk - its very depressing because again you think " What the heck did I do to deserve another guy that treats me like this.." Right? Its hard though, I know... from experience.
Take a break. Do things for yourself, experience the world, learn from your mistakes as well as theirs. Surely you can think about all of the things about your ex's and say to yourself that that's NOT how you want the next one to be. Sometimes you can't figure that out soon enough, but really take your time reading into people. I've learned too - that men that don't respect their mothers, do not respect their spouses. Not in all cases, but in a majority of cases. Finding true happiness isn't always about picking the right guy at the right time. There are PLENTY of great men out there, it just takes time to find them. Don't EVER give up if you really want something and never settle for less than you deserve. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much help, but I hope you think about what I said - as I mean it in the nicest way possible. Good luck to you, and Don't GIVE UP PLEASE!

Brilliant answer above! It would be best to take it to heart!

Hey, I think greg was making a sarcastic joke, well intentioned, but not very well thought through. Lets all just be understanding and forgiving,
Now, you shouldn't worry so much, there is a single person out there who will make you truly happy and who will be your soulmate, you just got to find them and every jerk, every rejection, every heartbreak, is just narrowing it down, sorting through the massive pile of potential soulmates, till one day, some wonderful day, you will meet the guy/gal of your dreams, you may have already met him, and just don't realise it, he could be one of your friends, and it mite grow, or he mite be sum1 you have not yet met, but will some day, maybe soon, maybe later. As erlo said, don't settle for less than you deserve, and as clough said, you need to feel good about yourself, and confident, because when you hold your head high and look people in the eyes, they take notice, and if you can be confident, self assured, and have a certain amount of optimism and peace, when you enter a room, heads will turn, and people will listen.
There IS a soulmate for you, there WILL be heartbreak, I'm sorry, there will be good times and bad times, but all of it, your entire lifes struggles, you will be able to look back at them oneday, then look into your soulmates eyes, and say "you are worth all i went through, all the suffering, all the heartbreak, all the rejection"
I hope my answer helps, well, you can do it! Be positive! Keep back straight, chin up, be positive, don't live in the past and your regrets, and remember- there are plenty of fish in the sea, so it pays for you to take the time to find the fish that makes the whole sea seem dull and unlovely in comparison.
I hope my answer helps in some small way... good luck!

Awesome, understanding and caring answers by erlobenauer and cal823, above! I hope that you read them thoroughly and take them to heart!
As I've already indicated in a private message to you, I do think that you need to work on yourself and that all of us do. The kind of person that we make ourselves to be in all aspects of personality and what/how we do things, are often the prime elements that attracts others to ourselves.
I do want to add now that water seeks it's own level. It's a basic law of physics. It's the same way with people. Most of us tend to seek out others who are like ourselves. We want to feel loved, a part of the crowd, needed and wanted, a sense of belonging.. Even though we might seek out people and situations in order to feel those ways, there may be some things that we as well as others might be doing, that are not as helpful towards achieving those goals.
A lot of times, when people post questions such as yours, there aren't any real quick "pat" answers or "cures." It might take some time to figure out what is really happening in a person's thinking as well as actions that might be hampering them to achieving a happy, healthy and productive life in their interpersonal relationships according to their individual needs and desires.
As far as how to work on yourself, it would help to know some additional things about you for discussion to be proactive and beneficial to you - like your age, the things that you like to do, what you think that you might have done in the past that may have caused things to not go so well for you in relationships and other things, what others may have done that might have contributed to a relationship going bad, the positive things that you have done in your life to achieve your goals, how you think that you could change for the better, etc.
You don't have to answer about all of them all at once. It will take some time to figure these things out. They are just some ways of thinking and actions that might have occurred that may need to be discussed.
You posted the following:
I asked you the following question earlier.
"Do you feel good about yourself and the things that you do, please?"
And, you answered with:
"yeah i am who i am i acept that and no not all the things i do"
You also made the following comment later:
"i have alot of mental issues when it comes to guys. one realationship i was in affected me really badly and im almost to scard to get into another. i was hurt bad and i can't shake that and i still have night mares to this day i just feel asthough i can't trust anymore and if i am with a guy i make sure i dont have feelings or get attached."
What was it about the one relationship that was so bad for you? I hope that you will share that with us. Thank you! :)

I didn't bother with guys for three years. Worked on improving self since everybody says the only way to have a healthy relationship is to have yourself 100% together and still I ended up with yet another jerk. Two months later, I am ready to go another 3 years alone!
So, in other words, don't rush it cause it will end up being the same old same old. You are better waiting for the right one to come along.

In my experience you cannot usually find true love by actively seeking it. As others have intimated here, first you need to work on yourself and be as happy as you can be within. Do things that make you feel fulfilled. Follow your dreams and learn to feel comfortable within your own skin AND give of yourself to others.
Love will creep on you when you least expect it. I will tell you this. Men fall in love with women who feel good about themselves, who are self-confident, who have a good sense of humour and who are not afraid to just be themselves. Women who are emotionally needy might bring out the protective side in a man, but very rarely will this lead to a long term romance.
Statistics show that a romance that is most likely to succeed will be one with someone with similar interests, likes, dislikes, background/upbringing, religious beliefs, etc. That is not to say other relationships wouldn't work, but they will require more work to keep them together. So, pursue the things that bring you happiness inside, find ways to deal with your 'mental issues' where it comes to men and live the way you want to live. Once you are there - love may follow - but if it doesn't, at least you will be happy and fulfilled without it.
I hope this helps...
Hugs, Didi

Thank you every one for your posts. Now to tell you about the one realationship that well I think made me this way. Well this guy was great and months pasted and I fell in love with him. Not much longer after that he changed and I mean complete turn around, he became pocessive and very aggressive. It started with just verbal abuse which I handled, but then on to physical just every now and again until that turned into a dayly to weekly happening. I no what your thinking why the hell didn't you just leave. Well I tried more than once and tried reaching out for help and found none I was stuck. I almost wasn't aloud out of his site and if I even looked at another guy I was acursed of likeing him or having sex with him then I would get the bash. And if I ever refused him sex because of whatever reason usually because I was sore all over he would rape me. There's plenty more to be told but you won't want to hear it I'm sure. I have been very open here and so please don't respond in a hurtful way.

Ouch... you've had it rough
But, the stuff we have said still stands
And don't worry, very few guys are like that.
Also, yes you are right, you should have left. Now you know, if a guy hits you, hurts you intentionally, abuses you, or attempts rape, get out, he isn't worth staying with, you deserve better!
Your openness will help you to heal and stuff, and remember- you deserve someone perfect to you.
And please, we want to hear about all your problems, so we can help you. We have the time and we want to help you.
Thank you for your openness :)

i have been very open here and so please dont respond in a hurtful way.
There may still be some jerks who might still come along because this thread is now more likely to get noticed because it is more towards the top of the list of questions needing to be answered because there is current activity on it. But, like I said in my private message to you, just ignore them. :)

Do you really think ill ever be able to have a real realationship with any one even if the right person comes along I push people away cause that's just what I do I put up barriers between me and any body who wants to get close the same goes with all well as I like to call them my aquintinces which could all be potential friends

You've had it hard girl, you really have. You need to feel good about yourself, feel confident and love yourself before you will be loved by someone else. When (not if) when you do find him, set out your stall and tell him what you want from it, you don't want lies, you don't want jelousy etc etc, at least that way he knows where he stands and can't complain if you end it because of these reasons, after all he was pre warned. Take it slowly, stand tall and go get your man, if he's worth anything he'll love you for you, respect you and treat you like a princess. Good luck.
