I have been reading throught the forums here and there about people who just get there fix off the "search" of looking. I have been a member here for a long time and I always joke that I have more girlfriends here then boyfriends but is this really a new craze. People who dont really want to date or meet people in person but enjoy the online dating world even more? Fantasy better then reality...

No I know of a guy who calls me and im's me a lot. We have never met, but he has a game going with this site. He dates a lot of women from POF. He does not even have his own pics on his profile. He even poses as someone from another ethnicity in order to get a woman to go out with him, if she is attracted to other ethnicities than his. I think he even had a profile with a totally different person's info, as another way to attract women of that ethnicity. And the mods have not deleted his profiles. He is a 'serial dater' if there ever was one.

chatting addiction really isnt about "fantasy" ...its about being so connected to your PC/phone and chatting / texting to others that it becomes their main source of entertainment and communication preference when they can easily talk on the phone to you locally or come in person to see you. its also about filling some emotional need for some attention/validation they dont feel they have or can get in real life....and in alot of cases it continues on even for those in a so called committed relationship. it creates alot of dysfunction and broken hearts on many different levels at the same time.

During the winter months I spend more time online than spring, summer, and fall. Seems like the older you get the harder it is to find true compatability. I have heard from other members that people on these sites don't want anything to do with someone thats local. Kind of makes me wonder if they are married or have a B/F or G/F and only want to date out of their area. One thing for certain. I live in a low populated area and there's not alot of jobs for women in this area, so therefor not many women as compaired to men. I think the head count on this site in a local serch is 3 men to every 1 woman in this area. I'm certainly open for relocation and open for someone to relocate. But I certainly want to move south eventually. These winters up here are bitter.

I have been reading throught the forums here and there about people who just get there fix off the "search" of looking. There is no fix for me when it comes to the "search of looking". I am not actively looking anymore and when it happens, it happens. I think the more you look, the less you will find. When my significant other shows up at my house and is pounding on my door to let her in, I will gladly open it up for her with open arms lol. The only fix I have on here are these goofy forums.

it's not fun or just for kicks for me. these forums may be for kicks but the searching is rough...there's maybe a dozen on this site that i find interesting and are spread out around the world with none too close to me...and then if i had to be concerned if they'd want me, it ends up being zero. there is not much to choose from here. since so many women who are halfway attractive can EASILY get men in the real world just by making herself available (not so for men), she does NOT need to go to a site like this. So, the decent women who would be able to get dates easily and who are on here might just be the ones who like to stay at home and i think that's fine...just wish there was a criterion for homebody versus needs to spend the remainder of a paycheck paying for overpriced drinks, food and entertainment - so far POF has not taken up my challenge.
