What is it women in their 30s look for in a man?

I'm a 32 year old man, single parent, military. 6'2, 200 lbs. I'm tried several different dating sites (POF, Match, E-harmony) since September. So far I haven't had even a single person respond or show any kind of interest in me.

I know this is the million dollar question, but what is it that women look for? I have a steady job that I enjoy, i'm mentally stable, i've never been arrested, I don't drink, don't smoke, I can cook, clean and all of that. I'm not a square by any means, I like to go out and try new retaurants, hike, run, video games...just about anything.

Such little interest makes me feel like i'm some kind of hideous CHUD :/

    Well if online sites ain't working, it's time to do it the old fashion way and start talking to girls in person.

    Time to go out there and start getting rejected....often. Because normally that's what happens...you don't get food handed to you on a platter in terms of dating...you'll be hittin and missing, and for the most part, you WILL be missing alot.

    But that's good....WHY? Because you'll get rid of the anxiety. The hardest part for a lot of folks having difficulty with dating is that CONFIDENCE. You have no confidence, you don't go talkin to people. You go jump in and start talking, and get USED to being rejected, HOWEVER learning from your mistakes, or approaches...then you build confidence..Because then you wouldnt' care if you get rejected, you already know how it feels, you didn't die, you see what kind of women you attract, you'll see which ones you got close, and ones you just straight failed on,and you ADOPT.

    EVENTUALLY ONE of those girls are gonna give you a chance, and who knows it might work. OR, BECAUSE you have established some confidence in your game,those women may come TO YOU....because people present a different aura about them with confidence, they live a lil different....and some good women can sniff that a mile away....after all....all women love a man with confidence....why do you think they chase after bad boys so much?

    Do you, and get in there and practice.....as they say practice makes perfect....love finds those who love themselves the RIGHT WAY.....by taking care of yourself mentally and physically.

    good luck

    my 2 cents.

    Every body would like to have a secured life. May be men or woman. Mostly women are are/feel unsafe. So it is quite normal that a lady in 30s feel insecure and looking for a man. It is a quite normal thinking of mankind to feel it. cooking,playing game may be a part of life . But this is theme of life.
