| A Date In Maine???
Posted: 8/12/2005 10:15:37 AM | Actually I met a guy online about two years ago. We were together for about a year and a half. He was recently widowed and I had been divorced for about a year. It was great while it lasted and I wouldn't have given up that experience for anything.
Don't give up hope. I am 47, overweight, just starting over with one kid still at home (13), and I had a great time and excellent sex for that precious time with him. It helped me get ready to be out here again. I got to REMEMBER that I am a pretty good catch. I bet you are too.
Good luck. | |

Posted: 8/15/2005 5:12:32 AM | hi all!!! It can be a little discouraging when you see someone you are attracted to and they are thousands of miles away, but that is the downside to the whole internet dating deal! Like was said in the post above, you have to keep your chin up, don't give up hope. I still believe that there is someone out there, its just a matter of finding that person. I have gone on two dates with two different men that I met online, one went great, but that person was in the service and moving out of the area and the other, we did not hit it off at all. I keep telling myself that I will not meet anyone if I don't keep an open mind and take a chance! I wish everyone the best of luck - have fun while fishin'   | |

Posted: 10/9/2005 2:34:50 PM | I couldn't agree! I've met a number of very nice women myself over the last almost-year, including one or two with whom I am great friends now, but, the romance just didn't work out. Keep your chin up, it does happen though (It happened for me once, just didn't last but it was great while it did!). It's worth it to keep looking!

Posted: 10/10/2005 1:48:57 PM | | Hi Dave.. I agree with you. I have also met some really nice men over the internet and have maintained some good friendships. Living fully requires risks, and with risk comes great joy and sometimes great pain, but it's worth it. I hope to find a soul mate someday, but in the meantime I've having fun just getting to know some great people. | |

Posted: 4/9/2006 3:30:36 PM | I have been divorced for little over a year...dated one from this site, lasted a couple months. Gosh he seemed so normal, maybe a little bit odd, or shy or something at first...as I got to know him, his true demons and childishness came out. So I break up with him because theres obviously something wrong. 2 days later my car gets paint stripper poured on it in the middle of the night....1 week after that DHS is called with a complaint!! I guess every state has it's weirdos...best get references and BE CAREFUL ladies and guys.  | |

Posted: 5/23/2006 7:56:15 PM | | Yes, I have met a few wonderful men in Maine since I moved here. They are still my friends. It was right after my divorce and I was looking for friends and thats the way they have come to me and remained. None of us wanted a relationship just companionship and good conversation. I am very choosy about who I meet, these men are exceptional. I am now ready to take that next step and find a man who may become a more perminant part of my life. Being new here I found dating sites invaluble for this area of socializing. Yes there are men worthy of dating in Maine just like everywhere else, honesty is the best policy, and state up front what you are expecting from the meeting. It saves wasted effort to be open and truthful. | |

Posted: 7/17/2006 10:25:35 AM | I have made some great friends, but found the dating scene to be a little difficult due to the distances involved. A one hour drive in the summer can become a nightmare in winter...so I tend to shy away from women who live more than 50 miles away...In Maine, that limits you to a very small pond to fish in...
The other factor affected by the distance is employment...no-one (including myself) who is lucky enough to have a secure, well paying job is interested in relocating......unless, of course, they live in nigeria and you are willing to wire them some money...
I'm not being negative here....I know the right match is out there for me, we just have not found each other..just agreeing that yes, dating in Maine is a challenge...

Posted: 8/25/2006 8:01:26 AM | In reference to yout post happy2bme way back in 2005  Most women I have met, dont want to take a chance on someone who doesnt have a lot of money or doesnt look like tom cruise or brad pitt....and that really bothers me...they set thier standards so high...and guys like me have no chance to even get to talk to them because of that. What is it with most women now? I dont want to have to settle...I did that in my second marriage and will not do it again. I am not looking for a barbie doll...but it seems like most women are looking for a ken doll. | |

Posted: 9/5/2006 7:30:23 AM | I agree men, All the good ones are gone.
Seems like when I try to date on line in Maine-The women only want to type to you, takes months to even get a date-even then they think Im being pushy.
And when you do meet them they dont even look like their photo. Photo was taken 100 pounds ago.
They all seem afraid your a phyco killer, well I have not heard of any phyco killers in this state. They watch the news from New York or New Jersy, and think Maine is the same. | |

Posted: 10/8/2006 8:51:10 AM | This is true too- often in order to live in Maine, you have to work a lot of crazy hours/shifts just to get by- dating takes a back seat.
But when you find the time, there are some pretty fun people in Maine (I like to think I'm one of them! LOL)
hugs,
