My sense of it is many who are on dating sites do not date.
Another recommendation specific to connectingsingles for people like us who live in "the skinny part of Idaho" is to use the search here

One more thing:

sometimes we find something when we're not looking for it;
maybe just let cs be entertaining and a place to make new friends.
