Posted: 10/13/2006 8:07:27 PM |  Well its been a month on here and it has been an experience to say the least. I have meet some very nice people on here. I hope some that I have meet won't take offence if I don't get back to them right away but it is a busy time for me. I have kept an open mind with some of the things that have happened and its been interesting to say the least. Its funny when you get what you wish for and find out its not really what you want. I have given it some careful thought I am not sure if it's because I haven't meet the right person yet. I guess the jury is still out on that idea...One thing I can say is that most ladies I have meet on here have been very honest with the exception of one.. can't win them all...I will persist in the search of the elusive one! Happy Fishing!  Dennis the Menace! | |

Posted: 10/16/2006 6:35:41 AM | Hiya,
Just thought I'd say hi to the Manitoba people. What better way to meet new friends than by jumping onto the local community forum eh?
Well everything I wanted to say about me and then some is in my profile. But the short snapshot is that I'm 25, single(like just about everyone else on here lol), in school and working full time. Need to know more just click that link over
<--------- There.
Cheers
Oh... and sometimes I can be an  but I often prefer to be a  heh. | |

Might be that being negative about women is not likely to make them like you any better. Try to be a little less down on Winnipeg girls and just be happy with yourself. I don't know of a single girl who responds well to being stereotyped as "stuck up and having problems."
I also don't know a single girl who will even look once at a guy who sounds at all desperate, and my friend, you do sound really desperate by complaining that no one talks to you.
I've talked to plenty of girls from Winnipeg and abroad on this site... but then I know I don't need this site to meet girls anyways, it's just convenient and fun to email back and forth. I also don't have a lot of time because I'm really busy with my own life, so finding a new friend can be difficult between fulltime work and school and hanging out with the friends I already have.
Here's a few suggestions... your profile needs some work. It's not too bad, but it certainly doesn't compete well with the literally thousands of other guys. Remember that on this site there's about a 10:1 ratio guys to girls... so if you don't stand out as someone a girl wants to meet, you'll just get deleted along with the 50+emails a day
most women receive.
Suggestion #1 -
Post your profile on the Profile Reviews section in the forums.
Below is a link to my profile review, take a look at what many women from all over North America said about my profile:
http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts5493670.aspx
Now here's a link to my profile:
http://www.plentyoffish.com/member2513121.htm
Compare our profiles and see the difference. Trust me, showing effort and spending a bit of time on your profile will improve your chances of talking with a girl in Winnipeg a lot better. So follow the constructive criticism the girls will give you and don't be lippy or take offence to what they have to say, they're actually just trying to help you.
Suggestion #2 -
Clean up your profile. You say you're in college but your grammar is horrible. Unless you're after some barstar airhead (and there's actually not that many) you're not going to impress anyone with bad English.
Suggestion #3 -
Get more pictures of you doing stuff... no ones student card or driver's license is a good pic. You yourself say that many people think it's a MUG SHOT!! Most women are not attracted to guys who've been to prison, so associating yourself with scumbags in jail is not a good step towards finding love. lol. Go take some pictures outdoors, or clubbing, or whatever it is you like to do, then post them.
Anyways this post is way too long and really in the wrong thread to begin with. I just wanted to make a few suggestions to you in case you just needed a bit of advice. So take it or leave it, just trying to help you out bro. :)
Cheers, | |

Posted: 10/23/2006 9:16:02 PM | HI...I am somewhat new here. I'm 31, and a single mom to a beautiful 3 1/2 year old boy. He's my world, but I am looking to add some new friends, and see what becomes of it. I don't have a heck of a lot of free time, which is why I am online.
I enjoy movies, sports, reading, lifting weights (yes really), and hanging out with my boy. I have a wicked sense of humour, and enjoy people who can appreciate my sarcastic side. Well, people who can appreciate any side of me are good, really! | |

Posted: 10/27/2006 7:09:40 PM | Hi, I am 39 years old and female. I work many hours and don't have much time to socialize, so I thought this would be a good way of meeting some new friends. I have met some nice people here, so far. Some great organized events here and lots of newcomers. Hope to see you at one of the Plenty of Fish events.  | |

| Introduce Yourself Here.
Posted: 10/27/2006 11:29:08 PM | Hi all, I am new to this site and to be honest have been out of the loop for awhile. Writing about me is not the easiest thing to do as I am sure that most feel the same way. I do not get many replys to my profile, I am sure it is to do with the way that it is posted 
I am here to meet some new people and perhaps find that one person who I can connect with on all levels. I am an easy going person, don't ask for anything that I would not do for another.
I am simply looking for a real sweet lady!
ugg 
I will get this writing thing down yet, and to think that I am normally a creative person  | |

Posted: 12/24/2006 10:18:10 AM | Hi - I'm 48, a single divorced woman who has 2 kids (9 and 7) living with me in my house. I currently do not have any pets. I have two older daughters who don't live at home.
I have worked out all the crap from my past so I don't carry any baggage or burdens except the normal day to day life/living stuff and having to take care of kids and work and make lunches, etc.
Would really like to meet a man who would compliment my life and enjoy doing things together. I like great conversation, movies and popcorn, a nice glass of wine, and being passionate about things.
I don't need to get married or have a man move in right away, but it would be nice to have someone warm and thoughtful to share things with and to care about.
I'm just really getting acquainted with this site from my friend who has made many friends here - and looking forward to new experiences.
Thanks for reading this and maybe we'll talk soon.
