I understand what you are saying about giving up. I get so frustrated because I send out emails to guys and then they reply once or twice and then move on and also the fast that I will email them a nice sized email and then my reply from them consists of 1 or 2 sentences. I understand the whole women have more words in their daily vocabulary then men (in other words women have more to say than most men), but you would think that a man could at least write you a good paragraph or something. Answer your questions, anything! I decided to finally just start getting on maybe once a day to look if I get any mail-which usually has no luck, and then getting off. Don't worry about finding the right one though. When the time is right she will come along, it just takes time. Even if you don't meet her on here at least you gained friendships and learned new things from other peoples views and experiences. Good luck and I hope you find someone soon.

My private jet is in the shop how is yours?

I'm not even talking about a perfect match, just even someone who is interested in me.

Or even have enough social graces to pretend to be interested for an hour or two.

Oh, one must have a date to do that......

The biggest chuckle is when the word 'friend' is used....
as he stares at the T.V. or cant make eye contact, or write
a 'nice to have met you' note the next day.....

Activities ?? Friends ??? take a walk????
Meet new people????


hummmmmmm......

Blah, blah blah. Lots of platitudes, very little concrete help here.

If you are not making progress on this site, its one of two things:

You are looking for the exotic/uncommon, are dating outside of socioeconomic class and education or age group - OR have habits, preferences, or objectives that put you outside of the norm for desired traits by opposite gender OR you are unrealistic with respect to finding someone within proximity restrictions (considering your preferences, objectives, etc) . In other words, you are fishing in a sparsely populated pool.

You are generic and blend into the woodwork - you aren't trying very hard to package yourself well and are waiting for someone to magically appear despite your lack of effort. Meaning, you are more or less invisible to the active fisherfolk here.

Put your profile up for review, Ross. The photos of you are lousy because you have very fair complexion and the blue from the monitor is reflected off your skin, giving you a orange/blue cast which is very unbecoming. Your profile is skimpy at best. It reflects MINIMAL effort on your part. Your activity list isn't very conducive to couples interaction. See, you are very generic at present, with nothing to make you stand out in a crowd. Even your age range is generic. You shouldn't be dating a teenager nor a mid-40s women, as you are in your early 30s, at a different life stage (and objectives) than young adults and mid-lifers.

The other thing I sense about you, Ross, is that you may have a limited social life. If you can't find friends so go out and have fun with, and you are frequently bored and lonely on your own, its not the world that is lacking..

Its you. Your social IQ may suck because your ability to feel pleasure, be confident and open to meeting and sharing experiences with others is very limited. Its self-limited in most cases, because both serotonin and dopamine are in poor supply. Those are boosted by physical activity and are replenished by a healthy lifestyle that includes an active social support network.

If you have had a history of chronic stress or frequent acute stress in recent years, are sedentary and have a closed and limited social life, chances are, you aren't giving off the body language that we humans typically find attractive. Instead, the face and body are guarded, closed and broadcast signs of mistrust, anger or fear.
