To think he is too good to be true

58 replies

Confused009 · 31/07/2017 00:24

New man I've been dating for a while seems too good to be true. Now I know this might be a liitle snobbish but his attributes are...

Funny, generous, impeccable manors... very much English gentleman
Consultant doctor
Good age (5 years older)
Owns own home
Good family
Privileged upper middle class background
Very good looking and tall
Dresses well, smells lovely
All his own teeth Grin

He is too good to be true... why is he single!

Sounds driven to me & hasn't had time for dating.

UserThenLotsOfNumbers · 31/07/2017 07:28

It's probably because of his career.

pigeondujour · 31/07/2017 07:35

I'd be wary.

Badcat666 · 31/07/2017 07:37

I think he was busy with his cared as well. Mad long hours in any job doesn't leave a lot of time for dating and meeting the right person who can handle their partner working all the time.

And micro penis doesn't mean a lot, he may be very good with his hands and mouth Wink

Badcat666 · 31/07/2017 07:37

Career, bloody autocorrect

I thought my husband was too good to be true but it seems he's not.

I'd like to think he has just been too busy for good relations, but I'd put my money on Laurie theory.

How is he on 'equality', though?

Could his life plan indicate now to collect perfect wife and family, with no intention of haring the nighttime waking? Whatever his shtick, if it works for you....

steff13 · 31/07/2017 08:32

I'm sad the OP hasn't come back and we may never know. Sad

FinallyHere · 31/07/2017 08:53

steff you mean it might be even more 'unusual' than the guesses above?

steff13 · 31/07/2017 08:54

Maybe. I mostly just want to know if he has a micropenis. Wink

JungleInTheRumble · 31/07/2017 08:59

The guy I fancied was too good to be true. He's now my fiance and still pretty perfect...everyone has their flaws though.

lmer · 31/07/2017 09:30

Another vote of weird fetish or micro penis!

MadMags · 31/07/2017 09:32

She's probably gone missing in one of his manors.

WhatTheChickens · 31/07/2017 09:36

I'm in a similar situation, seeing a guy in his early 40s, never married, no kids, very successful, silly house, wealthy.

I asked him why he's single outright - he claimed he was just "very picky"

Having slept together several times I think I might be finding out the real reason for his singledom. VERY selfish in bed. In fact, maybe not so much selfish but a bit clueless. Just wants to pound. Constantly.

Not sure I'm inclined to spend my time teaching a guy of his age any skills.

Confused009 · 31/07/2017 09:45

lol at this thread! Sorry guys manners!

Definite evidence!
Yes not going to say to much... I'm a medic myself so I understand the concentrating on career thing.

I've only just started OLD at grand age of 33 but literally no time to meet people hence just focusing on this one

He is 38. I know he did come out of a long term relationship but has left his previous very nice city for current city (New job) where we both live.

@whatthechickens I've just come over from the thread about unsolicited dick pics. Are you sure you don't want to teach yours a few skill's instead of wandering back to OLD and the land of dick pics???

Confused009 · 31/07/2017 09:48

Not quite sure about his male appendages yet though! Will have to wait and see

OP posts:
ambereeree · 31/07/2017 09:48

You're both young. Lots of my male school and uni friends are still looking for the one at 38 and are great guys.

WhatTheChickens · 31/07/2017 09:53

Ha!
Yeah maybe I should give him more of a chance. Just kind of takes the shine off having to direct someone. He's bloody 41, he should know what to do!

I also think porn is to blame, he clearly watches ALOT of porn.
In general, incessant finger banging does not equal foreplay.

Jesus.....

IfNot · 31/07/2017 09:55

Nooooooooooo. Never focus on just one. You will find yourself overlooking all manor Grin of niggling doubts. Date more men! Immediately. Then you can see this potential Mr with clear eyes.

Laiste · 31/07/2017 09:55

Bitty?

IfNot · 31/07/2017 09:56

I have male friends who are 47 and still looking for "the one"...great guys... kind of ...
