Having trouble....
Posted: 7/3/2009 1:53:02 PM
I am having trouble understanding why so many people seem to whine and whinge about poor responses. Or little affection (For lack of a better word) from this site, because i ain't particularly been on here for a very long time but have still made some great friends. Ok nothing romantic (Yet) but still, a friendship to me is worth more.....

I read through the forums and see endless threads on how people are having trouble meeting with anybody, or talking to people.....

Need to look at the brighter side of things i think....

Seriously people, lighten up. Remember, smile and the whole world smiles with you :)

They expect to connect the same way here as you do in real life? I dunno. I live for the times when you get serious eye contact that almost burns through you, hell yes. Keep smiling, keep your head up and proud!

Despite the opportunities provided by this site, there are always going to be some people who have difficulties with regard to talking to and meeting others.

I do agree, though, that they don't need to create threads to inform us of that fact!


Ok nothing romantic (Yet) but still, a friendship to me is worth more.....


Aren't we 'friends' with those who we are romantically involved?

I always think I am....


Some people are mardy sods but you have to remember some folks are never happy unless they are moaning and being a misery guts.


True!

The trick is to keep them out of my life....

I don't have a problem with that..........looking after yourself is one thing BUT....

implies you are looking after everyone else too and I feel you are spouting sanctimonious crap, especially if someone is reading it who has every reason NOT to be smiling at the time. I'm sure you meant well though and you are right. I'm a miserable cow!

Well, believe what you want. We have all had hard lives, except the fortunate few of us. It's how we deal with these issues that shapes who we are.

If you want to look on the darker side of everything then go ahead.... Just stop stop bloody telling everyone about it and dragging us all down into that pit of misery!

Lol Mr Happyman, you're a handsome, fit 21 year old.

If you're not happy now, you're never going to be!

But not everyone has the advantages and optimism of youth. I'm not saying I condone a lot of the whinging that goes on here, but life can look a little less 'shiny' 20 odd years down the line for some.

Peace

For some...this is the be all and end all of thier search for someone, some have forgotten about the old fashioned methods before the advent of internet dating.
I never get any mail but i'm not surprised because I hardly try, i'm just here.

I have to agree that internet dating has taken over as the new form of dating but people should consider the more natural avenue and dont expect too much from internet dating as it has jaded a lot of people, I prefer to accept dates from people i actually know and have physically met and it seems to be working just fine.
