It makes me sad to see so many people making remarks about people looking for friends , attached , considering a relationship or even married cos it seems to obstruct in some way their pursuit in finding someone serious.
Maybe one should appeal to CS instead to make the changes one thinks necessary as CS has provided the option themselves.
There are people who have found serious partners inspite of these apparent intricacies. And the ones who are looking still .. maybe no one would be in a better position to comment about it than they themselves ....
In my personal experience , i have been on serious websites as mentioned purely for relationship or marriage purposes and pretty decent ones. But i would admit the people were worse. These forums happening to be a mix of people makes the environment comfortable and not " target oriented ' as it would feel.
If what we are looking for is stimulation of the mind and compatibility it can be spotted from a distance when you see it. And the practical difficulties need to be sorted out in any case.
Besides, personally, i would first be friends get to know the person and then pursue a relationship as real life is an altogether different deal. While it does help avoid some of the despicable approaches people use to drive you insane just cos they are looking for their soulmate.. like its mandatory for you to be their sacrificial lamb.
And people do mention on their profiles their relationship status or intentions so again does help to sort out .
I think there are lot many single people " looking for friends " who wouldnt mind falling for the right person.
well , JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION.
