Posted: 3/18/2007 3:00:07 PM | I am dating and meeting as many people as possiable. I would say I am into the 40's I guess. Still not found the one yet couple got serious for a few months then did not work out. A few asked me to marry them on the first date. Been told they loved me on a first date. Then the staring at me thing all night long freaky. I have made some friends and met alot of interesting men. In fact met a nice man last night who knows.
The internet thing is like speed dating in slow motion meet them both with the understanding that you or I may feel something but You or I may not. Either way both know that we are not children if it is not there move on.
Better to be single then with the wrong person .... | |

Posted: 3/18/2007 4:03:50 PM | I've done the Internet thing for about six years (of course, still dating ppl I meet in real life), but couldn't estimate how many dates I've been on. Just to make a random guess, I'd say maybe 50 or so, including times where I simply went by her place to chill.
Out of that 50, only one led to an actual relationship. Other than that, the girlfriends I've had over the last six years were girls I knew in real life, mainly from when I was in college.
Would love to do it all over again...was so much easier back then.  | |

Posted: 3/18/2007 5:02:10 PM | I had found two long term 2 yr relationships on another internet site, one you pay for.
Both ended the same way ....I wanted to get an engagement ring and get married and they both had been recently divorced and not really ready yet so things went downhill from that point.
A friend told me about this site and been on maybe month and half and only like 5 or 6 people were talking to me via email.
Went on 3 dates so far and here is the result:
Met one for drinks and he called me the next day but left no message and then I learned later he expected me to call him back and since I did not he thought I did not like him so he played the famous "disappearing act".
Met an old school buddie I had not seen in 30 yrs for coffee. It was nice to meet again after all those years but I still had no romantic connection. I wanted to stay friends and he did not and went ballistic on me via email.
Met a really cool guy from Philly and had a very nice dinner at a fantastic restaurant but he was too much in love with himself to even give me a chance so that kind of is fading away slowly with a few emails here and there.
Now that I put my picture in I am getting allot more people that want to meet but now I am just at the point where Inow have too many requirements and not sure if I can find anyone to fit the bill...........whats a girl to do ??????

Posted: 3/30/2007 1:44:02 PM | | there is tow main things here: 1) men are looking for any thing, night satnad,sex,relationship................ 2)women asking for foto from first second you chat with them. ....... that is because men want to have sex as much as they can have and women are looking for good looking men so that means women dont care about personality. 0 out of 0 dating for me on here but i had a date on different site. | |

Posted: 3/30/2007 5:40:17 PM | I have been on this site for about a month. I had been on other paying sites for the past two years.I met my ex husband years ago on the internet(WHEN IT WAS NEW) and we connected from the first conversation. After the first meeting it was on.. We were together for five years. So when we divorced I thought I would give the internet thing another go round. This time was not so easy..I have had probably over fourty dates but stopped counting along time ago. It has been very disheartning when you just can't seem to find that one person you connect with on all levels. I had really given up. One month on here and I have had more responses than I could keep up with However, I have only chated with several. I picked out one that really got my attention and We began chating and It just escalated from there. We met last Friday night and It was awesome. We hit it off so much we lost track of time. Before we knew it the night was over and we had to leave. I was very nervouse about the night ending because it usually means a kiss. I have alwasy felt when you kiss someone you can feel wether or not you fit. Well the infamous moment came and I was a nervouse a cat in a room full of dogs. But, after that kiss we looked at each other and both of us said WOW! we fit! He asked for a second date the next night and I agreed. That night was just as awesome if not even more awesome than the first. We have seen each other numerous times over this week and have decided that we want to start seeing each other exclusively. Maybe things that come easy are just not worth having but, the things we have to wait for are..
Very happy and hopefull..

Posted: 4/14/2007 3:48:23 AM | | I have been in this site since the january of 2007. Still no first date. And no first meeting either. I have been looking on and off thru the internet since 1999. My grand total of dates that way has been 3. I have had more dates just thru friends, blind dates, etc than i have thru the internet. I thought that by looking thru the internet, there would be more choices. I seem to be proved wrong. But one thing i have noticed is the amount of women who will contact me first. I like that. But i do not like it when they contact me, give me their phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and photos, then dissappear. Without so much as a good bye. Like one other member posted, it is a little hard to date when the other person will not show up. This seems to be my experiances. | |

Posted: 4/14/2007 4:50:27 AM | Yeah my hand is held up to exactly the same pattern, dated/met several guys off the internet, and yeah still single. It’s a funny game, you can think the guy is so wonderful and then on meeting not the guy you have been led to believe was so interesting and stimulating in conversation (night after night).
Had two relationships (kind of, if you can call them that) with two guys I met offline and grew quiet fond of over a period of 4 years of being online, only to find my heart broken by both guys due to one of them with reasons after 4 months, and the other with excuses after one year. The site lives up to its name as in plenty of more fish in the sea, but do some people get sick of going through the formalities of getting to know someone time after time? It’s beginning to feel quite repetitive when talking to new people. | |

Only been here almost a month at the time of this posting and am not and have not ever been a member of any other dating site. I actually have a profile on "a space that is mine" (if you know what I mean), but that is not a dating profile for me. I actually did meet a girl off of there despite that, but it was more of a hanging out kind of thing. | |

Posted: 4/14/2007 6:37:29 AM | I have learned , that from my few meetings that no matter how many or how few people you meet,or date.There is a certain psychosis that people including myself get and that is alot expect perfection.
I now don't expect more from anyone than what i expect from myself.some people say theyre picky, but i have found its because they (including myself in the past) have commitment anxiety, and fear.
an example of this is people who want physically perfect people when theyre a little portly. or someone who wants a person, who has it together.when theyre neurotic.
its entertaining.upsetting at times ,but karma is always entertaining.

Posted: 4/14/2007 12:33:18 PM | who the fox: what's the point of being online if they're not willing to meet in person? i'm guessing they're either so jaded with the whole thing or they look nothing in person as they've led you to believe.
personally, i met a lot of men last fall (i was on a paid dating site - not yahoo, btw). that lasted for about 3 mos. i had a photo up at the time, so that probably helped, but over 3 months' time, the e-mails petered out. i think people grew tired of the same old profile. i found that happening from my view point too. that place needs an infusion of "new blood." same people on month after month. at first, it seemed like the possibilities were endless, but after running through the only guys in whom i had any interest, i realized the supplies were limited from the onset except i hadn't noticed it in my initial dating frenzy. had i realized that in the beginning, i probably wouldn't have burned my way through it so quickly - i.e. would have dated one guy at a time and given each one a chance. too late now (lol unless hapless "new blood" comes along.) in addition, i was beginning to feel like i had no time to myself. anyway, the burnout factor set in. so, now, here i am on a forum.
i find the points of view here to be interesting. sort of reinforces everything i think about my ex, so i know i made the right decision. | |

Posted: 4/14/2007 2:21:26 PM | OMG..........I dontknow if I could catch up with some of you professional daters, nor would I want to......LOL
I've been on about 5 dates w/ people that I've met online in the past 2 years. Seems like some people are just so quick to want to meet up. I say whats the rush? You can tell if you like someone over the phone.
3 out of those 5 dates we talked back and forth on the phone for almost a month, and those turned into seeing one another more than just a few times. The other 2, we didn't talk hardly at all, and just decided to meet and they turned out to be jackolanterns (personally and physically) in disguisee | |

Posted: 4/14/2007 7:49:57 PM | | started this ridiculous online crap about a 4 months ago. been on 8 or 9 dates. most went well but they never went beyond the first date for whatever reason (maybe i'm too easy, ). i do fancy this one woman now and we've been out several times but just "hanging out" not necessarily "dating" which means she's actually not picking me apart with a fine tooth comb thus allowing herself to see my good qualities as opposed to focusing on my shortcomings, whatever they are, as the other women probably did. | |
