Generally speaking of course, there are a lot of petty people out there. Way more than I ever expected.

One thing is that this is where a wish list of what we want meets the reality of who we are. Sometimes that is an eye opener.

since i started the online games few weeks ago, i would say, so far IT DOESN'T work!!!

well, now i am living at middle of nowhere, almost no trees, almost no grass, of course, almost no asian women, obviously, it is love barren land too.

complaining, complaining, i think i am a victim of some kinda discrimination, my breasts are growing... according to the new study of some kinda "scientists" i will have breast cancer soon...

I have to ask the question: Would any of you ladies on here
date a guy who has Pro-Audio loudspeakers in his van to
listen to music? For those of you who don't know what pro-audio
loudspeakers are, they are not car speakers nor house stereo speakers.
NO, they are those huge black ones used at concerts to make
DEAFENING LOUD volume levels. I have one in my van and was
wondering if women would find that amsing or offensive to have Live Concert sound levels in your car : ) I personaly
love it cause I am a LOUD freak.

Very true, sad but a bit funny too. I also seem to attract misfits. Lawyers, dentists, accountants, all professionals, but all nuts!! The dentist only wanted to "spank me" online, and talked of being kinky, so I told him to go away. Going to the dentist will never be the same The lawyer only wanted to "relieve himself" while online ,ugh! I know a lot of lawyers, but he was a pig, and didn't leave me alone! You get what you pay for, this site is not good for finding quality it seems.

That it's like buying a lottery ticket.

The chances of anything happening are almost infinitesimally small.

But almost every week someone gets lucky.

And unless you have a ticket, for sure it won't be you.....

I've learned not to take anyone too seriously on here until you have actually met them and even then you cant take them too seriously .....Guess I've learned most of them are jokes....hmmm not very funny ones though

ah let see what I learned....

1. People lie about having children.

2.People are not what they seem to be in real life since there profile made them outgoing.

3. Getting the funny read delete when I email a female and she never bother to check out the profile.

4.I did meet some great people so POF is not all bad. One must weed out all the player and people are on this site to play games.

Not to take dating sites too seriously, if something's pops off, it will, if it doesn't, so be it.

I learned that alot of girls on this site are psycho.
Only message girls that contact you first.
Girls like to ask for pictures of your penis.

Every man I've met via any personals site wants only one thing - sex. And whether you give it to them or don't, they move on either way. I lost my fiancee to cancer last year after having been with him for almost six years. I've been single quite a few years but engaged three times during all those years including the one I lost last year. I met every one of my finacees in a bar, they were all good men, and had a lot to offer. They weren't drunks or dopers, the last man was very, very wealthy. They were at the bar for the same reason I was - they liked to dance so we started out immediately with something in common. I lost two of them to cancer. There's just something different about meeting someone for the first time face-to-face like you do in a bar, or at work, etc. I think ALL the men on the personals websites are "wolves in sheeps clothing." I guess those in my age range figure they don't have that much time left so they're out to get all they can before they die. They think they're immune to STD's, etc. I think they're stupid and disgusting. I'm going to start going out dancing again. Wish me luck and thanks for providing a "vent" for me.

What I learned? Simple. Don't try, lol.

If I see a profile that interests me, I message the lady. I just don't expect a response. For me the enjoyment mostly comes from learning about people either though what they say or don't say in thier profiles and from the conversations that do get started from time to time. For me it's a no loose situation. After all, 19/20 people on the site (men and women) just look at the pictures and decide yes or no. They get frustrated and I get to smile. Works for me, lol.

haha, offline or online thats what men respond to! I think there was a study on how receptive men were to woman with larger breasts-its like primal, instinctive. Women with larger breasts and hips=healthy child-bearing mates.

You get what you give sometimes, but understand, there does seem to be a higher concentration of nutjubs on the internet. I've had some nice experiences . It really does help if you're honest.

I learned that to "succeed" here it requires t&a pix and a willingness to screw anyone.

Amen to that. I'm no longer looking especially on here and haven't for quite awhile now. I could care less anymore. Sex is all they want BUT they can get it elsewhere. I really hate to see what this world will be a few years down the road. The ones that can't keep their pants on will most likely be ate up with STD's and who knows what else. It's a sad world but I take it one day at a time and pretty much know in my heart that I will remain alone. I would much rather be alone than have to put up with someone's bullcrap.
