Ghosting
The biggest obstacle and beef I have with dating sites everywhere nowadays is that men ghost. Now I’m not singling men out because women do it too. I’m just saying men because that’s who I prefer to date but what’s with that? I have sooo many questions and examples as far as that goes. Such as someone matching with me and I match with them and then they disappear? Okay did you not look at my profile in the first place and then look at it when I finally matched with you? That’s just strange to me because I never match with someone UNLESS I’ve read their profile first.Another example is when we match with each other and talk and then if I don’t get back to them right away then I’m deleted? Like you can’t wait until I reply?! That’s total BS man. Great online dating is a thing of the past. Everyone is suspicious of everyone else or people see someone better and go to them or people don’t even bother to read profiles anymore.
I don’t even date anymore because there’s no point. It doesn’t go anywhere fast nowadays. Lol. I don’t know how people are meeting each other anymore because it still happens all the time, I see it. It’s an enigma.

Anyhoo, I have the blogs, forums, poets' corner, etc to keep me company in the meantime...
So do I, as I actually WANT to know something about the person BEFORE making contact or responding fully when he contacts me.
There has never been such thing as "great" online dating.
It is the luck of the beginner, easier satisfied and less bothered of where it might take them.
We kind of expect too much in advance.
Reading a profile don't always give you much but talking can reveal a lot quickly.
People don't ghost they just move on faster because there's no personal touch in online dating, one is easy to overcome.
No need to take it to heart, if the other one has decided there's no point communicating then there's no lose for you too.
Some people don't says anything "final" so they can leave the door open and come back later.
And it might be worth the delay, you know...
Suzie, older men are definitely like fine wine. So what you said is definitely still relevant. 100% Lol. Everything you just mentioned a younger man does. Older men have just been enriched more and they aren’t afraid to tell me how it really is as opposed to younger ones. That’s the best way I know how to describe that.
With all that said I’m just not going to take dating sites too seriously. I can’t.
