Has anyone actually "met" anyone female on connecting singles or been fobbed off excuses? (49)
I have met three or four. One was exceptionally nice; one a complete nightmare; one we didn't gel and one that, although not my type nor me hers, has remained a friend.
Look at what you have written and look for the signs that scream "fake" on the profiles!! If they tell you that Manchester is a suburb of London (I have had that one) they could be telling porkies! Ask the right questions - tell them you have been there before and if they can't tell you the name of the main road through the town they probably aren't where they say they are.

Rhiannon3: I think the problem is sorting out the phishers from the men/women. Yes, there are real people here - I'm one, you're one - and I've met a couple of them, and they were very nice, it just didn't click. However, there are LOADS of phishers - pretty easy to spot. They want you to e-mail them, not reply on site. The mail they send is very general and is titled (in my case) Hello dear, hello pretty - or something equally banal and ridiculous. There are then a couple of sentences (often in broken or bad English) about how gorgeous I am bla bla and please reply to xxxx@xx.com
They aren't real people - they are chat bots aimed at collecting email addresses for future spamming, so they are not going to de-register. Obviously, the ones aimed at men have different parameters - they go on about how genuine/sincere you look... because whoever programmed them thought that would be what you wanted to hear.
Treat them like annoying pop-ups - just delete and ignore. When it's a real person, they will use your name/id, and mention something particular to you - "I see you're interested in naked ice-skating - that's a coincidence, so am I. How did you get into it?" etc.
In the meantime, it's real people in the forums - so hi! Nice to meet you!

Hi nice to meet you too!, and thanks for your reply to the posting.
estrella123: I can say the same about the men on CS
I met women from this site...You just have to pick the right ones.
Must have patience! I agree, a lot of profiles are fake, or the pearson behind is just not serious, -....but there are also a lot of profiles and people that are nice, serious and willing to meet somebody new. Just have patience.

Hey, at least one. I am a woman and I met one guy in reality :)
And I am not into monthly writing with someone who could happen to be the person I am looking for. Meeting in reality is the only way to find out.
So good luck to you :)

I am not sure why it went twice.
Sorry for that.
Sorry for that.
fitness68: think a lot of people are wasting other peoples time via CS and should not even be on CS and de-register,if they are genuine then fine but i think many are not.
....

I've been here long enough and I know there are many genuine people on CS. I'm sure it's a lot easier if you put your energy to search for someone on a local dating site instead. Most people on CS are a bit older, at least on the forum, and most people (including me)don't move to another country, when they're 40+ or 50+. What are your expectation here? To find a woman, who are ready to move to you?

Good answer :)
I met few guys from CS after exchanging emails for some time and they were mainly decent guys, one was a real nightmare.
There is a lot of fake profiles, but after you will learn how to sense them.
I've met a few from here and mostly nice genuine men, some were not really ready for another relationship others we just didn't have that certain chemistry, but I would like to thank them for being gentlemen.
On the other hand some were just complete animals.

I met someone. She turned out to be a great singer/vocalist with amazing voice. We became only friends and I liked it this way.
Think about it like a normal day to day social life. Do you end up in a relation with every woman you talk to?

mrsoftly: Hi,
A question relevant as it seems many people are registered on CS but many have big issues ex's,or are married or in relationship or going through problems or something or another and do not want to go any further make stupid replies or keep you waiting make excuses,e.g be in contact and don't,or need to sort some things out!,anyone experiences this?,seems a pattern of regularity.
I think a lot of people are wasting other peoples time via CS and should not even be on CS and de-register,if they are genuine then fine but i think many are not.
I have had many experiences of this CS sorry to say but that's the truth!,anyone really genuine out there female?.
If they genuinely want to make contact either e-mail or whatever and move forward and meet up after a period of time and they are happy to do this then that's great but why is it so difficult to get anywhere on this site with anyone female?..
It the same old replies.
are you sincere?,you seem sincere,you seem genuine,you seem like a nice guy it goes on.jon

I can't find a way to deleye my profile, that's the point...Can anyone explain me how to do it?
There are also fake-profiles of men - saying for e.g. there are in Germany - just to avoid the blocked-list 
Or am I wrong? Is there some other settings I've missed, cos I'm new to this site?
However, some men don't read the profile-text or the match-settings - so, some are bothering me - if they are nice/not too stupid I wrote back: "... sorry, I guess we don't fit... You are not the one I'm looking for..."
But I can imagine, that some women trying to be polite and wasting each others time... Maybe these are women who got free the whole day, doing nothing and waiting for a millionaire...
That's also one point: Most people with money don't paddle with it... Ok, maybe some people need to pose, afterwards saying: "... she/he only wanted my money..." ...
It's hard to trust someone... Perhaps everyone need a chance - in this www-strangers (beside those who are not in the match-settings/text
...)...
I wish everyone to find the one they're looking for - GOOD LUCK

so far no problem.
but i don't try to push anybody into meeting.
so i don't need to be fobbed.
being poor helps too.
asking questions and listening to answers clears out most spammers

First thing is to work out what triggers the bad attitude, then offer him/her a better deal. If the bad attitude is because of fear, I narrow it down to whether it is fear of pain (convince horse it's not going to be hurt) or fear of the surroundings (convince it that I understand the fear and can offer leadership/security. For horses, leadership and security are much the same thing). If the bad attitude is because the horse doesn't have confidence in the people around it as reliable leaders, I show it that I can offer leadership (and therefore security) in terms it understands. Then comes the difficult bit - when I have to teach the owner to do the same! ;-)
