I give up, most of the guys I have emailed from here, either only want a sex partner but are lying and say they want more, or wouldnt know a good woman if she fell from the sky and landed on their head. Call me jaded or cynical, but when a guy writes you off after putting in their profile they are everything you want, then when you respond they are a jerk, it makes one cynical and jaded. I just dont have time for this crap. Being a person of faith, I think I will leave it in God's hands, and put my rod and reel away. Hey if He can send Jonah a whale, I am sure He has something better in mind for me. Good luck all you fisher people

By nursey101 - eh, you're not related to nurse69 are you? She was moaning her goodbyes the other day too. We're losing our nursies!

If a good woman falls from the sky and lands on my head it will probably kill me so I'm not wanting that, no sir. It's not a case of 'cynical and jaded' - it's frustration.

Good old frustration. Stomping feet and throwing things at the wall. That's what it is.

Sometimes you just have to work at it is all and as they say, 'you must be the change you wish to see'.

The meet and greets are what you make them. So why didnt you approach any of the guys. I have been to several of them and i will chat with many people. One of the meet and greets actually turned out to be something good. They are also for fun-dancing, darts, lazer tag, or just coffee shop. Try another one before you give up.

Oh come on sure it stinks and you are absolutely right, trolling thewaters you can come across all kinds of bottom feeders. Do not take it so personally they're some nice people wounded and untrusting life scarred but if you perservere you will meet someone decent, after all you are only looking for "one". PeaceL

Hey Nursey,
I could say the same thing here but there are some good fish in the sea.
A lot of top dwellers are looking for it all . Sex is good but there are things that
go with it. So don't give up sometime good things take time and you don't want
take what just comes along with the tide.

Just so you know, it goes both ways. I was on here once before and had the samething. There are women on here like that just as well. So please tar everyone with the same brush. This site is what YOU make of it. Hope for the best but you also expect the worst.

Just my .02 worth.

Funkeyfish, if you have been with this guy a year, living with him and plan to get married next April, why does your profile state you are looking for dates?

As far as meet/greet, I went to one talked to a few people. Ask one gentleman to dance, he did not seem to have been talking to anyone all night. He said as soon as he got his courage up, I told him no problem. I went back to my seat, he set his glass down and left. I went home shortly after that.

I am enjoying the forums and if I meet somone great, it not, I have made some great cyer pals.

i have to agree ! yes there are some real hum dingers on here , but i have met more nice guys then the dingers ....really ! yeah they said pretty much point blank wht they are wanting as far as sex , but even by the time you get to know those guys , you end up being friends. at least i have. i say how i feel about why i am in here , we end up having a good conversation. i am still friends with some that only wanted sex. they know they aren't going to get it from me , but honesty plays a major role on this site . i have met some really wonderful men in here , they live too far from me , but they would make a great catch. the ones that are still waiting for the right woman to come along. they have great hearts too , and they are waiting for the big moment in there life . we all are basically in here for the same reason . and there are as many men looking for that special someone as there are woman. dont give up yet ! there are still too many fish in this sea that actuallydo want to be loved .

Yeah...I understand. The best way to get what you want from life is to give up.

Ive met some nice people
Im just not dating
How does that make me a loser.

As other poster said you with someone 1 year but your looking?
At least we are honest.
Theres many reasons why we arent dating or are leaving.
Alot of us do live in the real world.
The Op has had enough its their choice.
If your so happy miss happy in love, why are you here?
You grow up

gidget,

was talking to the op.
you've done your time here. I just get so tire of people whining that after two weeks or a month they've yet to find their "soul mates".
My opinion and I'm sticking to it!

My lack of love life has not a wit to do with my reply to the op does it?

I def have to agree with that.. it seems everyone on here are very picky and think grass is greener on the other side. Now I'm not saying this just about men its women too. One thing for sure i never reply to threads but this one certainly caught my interest.
All I have to say is go out with the person that you seem you never get along or are interested in, and I'm sure that saying "opposites attract" will come into play. I have yet to try this out myself as most guys on here seem totally different when i meet them in person of how they explain themselves on there profile.
What's up with that. if you're shy say it, don't say your totally outgoing and are always talking, and then meet the person and say 2 words the whole time.
That's not the issue completly but all I'm saying be true to yourself when explaining who you are.

Yeh, for you. I am glad to hear that you have met the man of your dream's. I have not been in the "pond" that long and this give me hope.
I have found that there are good guys on here, they may not be the right guy for me but there are a few and I hope that like you I will find my guy. I have been single for well most of my life and I still love my life. Congrats and good wishes to the two of you.

Someone once told me "you have to go through a lot of dirt to find the gold" and "you don't FALL in love you GROW to love". My opinion is that this web site is like a blind date, don't expect much and you won't get hurt as bad, but when you do find someone you can "click with" you've found something special and THAT would be worth pursuing.

I know where you are coming from, but everything that's worth while takes time and effort, so keep fishing.
