| is there really someone for everyone?
Posted: 5/2/2008 8:03:37 AM | I would like to think so and hope so !! though finding them is hard going!
Know what you mean though, its hard searching for the needle in the haystack.
Your still young though, so don`t lose hope. i get many times i feel like giving up.
The dating rollercoaster isn`t easy, there will be times that will leave you torn up and frustrated, but hang on in there , its not going to happen overnight.

I have tried forcing a romantic relationship out of a friendship and well, trying to be intimate with someone you have never been, are not , and never will be attracted to is stomach turning.
I can drink to that. Sounds like my last relationship. Unfortunately finding someone I'm attracted to, that is likewise attracted to me, in addition to them being local is a very tall order.
So much so that I swore off relationships... until I started chatting with someone who seemed to thaw the ice that kept my heart protected, and now I feel blah. | |

Posted: 5/2/2008 7:36:08 PM | well maybe someone already called it:
"Well there is plenty of fish in the ocean...
You just have to be willing to swim across rivers and seas, if destiny wasn't kind enough to place your fish in shining armor in your local pond..."
and maybe you have to add to it that the local one has to include being 100% straight
and then maybe we all can Live Happily Ever After. | |

Posted: 5/2/2008 9:32:38 PM | | I always had a impression that the best relationships are the ones that aren't forced or one sided. Of course no woman ever does any work so it's always guys doing everything and I don't think that's the best way of getting a relationship. | |

Posted: 5/2/2008 9:59:46 PM | OP,
First, don't give up. If you want to expand your options try going to the places where you will find more "fish". What are your hobbies , passions? Try to find websites and local activities that revolve around them and go to them. You will find guys that share those passions and that will be the platform upon which you can meet interesting people.
I totally agree with you on the usefulness of bars and clubs, I've only ever gone to one in the last 3 years and though the fun of inebriation and dancing is something I never thought I would enjoy as much as I did, it is not the ultimate nirvana that many people make it out to be. Bar and Club hopping are not very likely to land you the "one" that is for sure. You can immerse yourself in your passions and find people with similar interests that way.
As for being lonely, hey it happens to everyone but that is what those passions are for, throw yourself in your activities as mentioned above and put yourself in the places where like minded individuals are likely to be (being a bit redundant but it is worth repeating), before you know it you'll have guys who like what you like, expressing interest those are the relationships that will tend to last.
To answer your initial query, is there really someone for everyone??? Well there are just about 6 billion people on the planet and a couple hundred million are in your age bracket. Depending on the scope of your search, the number of them that match you will vary significantly. If you are looking only locally you just likely ruled out the super mate that might be waiting for you in Paris or Tiblisi right now. ;) As far as online dating, do you only have a profile here at POF? Ever tried yahoo, chemistry or half a dozen other sites out there? Always keep in mind that your search could be broader and realize your inability to find success is going to be proportional to the scope of your search...so cast that net wider!
Just be patient, be diligent...play the numbers game that dating is and eventually you'll start having success.
Much success. | |

Posted: 5/2/2008 10:03:47 PM | | I have a friend who's 30 and likely destined to be single his entire life, but he's not upset about it. Even though he's been a close friend for a while, I still don't know if it's simply apathy, that he's given up on trying to find someone, or if he just realized that he'd be happier on his own without anyone else. Some people are like that. | |
