It's the distance
There are about 1,000 women here whose very photo calls out to me. 'Ken, Date me Ken,' the photo cries.Then I read the profile, and yep, I think we would both like that and this could work, and work well.
Then I read where they are and my heart sags. Thus far none of them are within 600 miles of me. Some may be 10 times that away. May as well be 10,000 times away, or a profile never deleted written 400 years ago.
Yes, once, not too long ago I fell instantly in love with a photo shown to me by a friend of a very pretty woman smiling while standing at a spot not far from my house and well known to me.. I can't tell you how sad I was after I inquired about who she was and how to contact her, because then I learned the photo was taken in 1903 and if alive today she would be at least 140 years old.
I like to tease when I search. I go to 'Online Now' then scroll down till I reach the page where they are just offline, then look at all the pretty women's profiles who have been offline in the past 30 minutes. The goal is to make them realize when next they log on and check their WVM, they just missed me.
Besides, I am suspicious of the women who are online 24/7. I suspect many of them are not real. I say this because even when I try to do that, CS auto logs me out after 10 hours or so, but many of these women are ALWAYS online. At any hour of the day, any day of the week. There are at least a dozen profiles I could name, and yes, they are Online Now, always. I will table speculation about access levels and how the trick is done. Suffice to say, let me focus on the one who just hung up. At least she is human. She may not be a real persona, but at least a human sits behind the photo rather than a shift worker maintaining a profile.
Do I write emails to the lovely women I find that way? Rarely, but sometimes something screams at me, write her and I have been known to. I haven't regretted it. I don't think they have either. In most cases the interchanges have gone on to other levels on other websites. A few, we even know private emails and addresses. Will it ever go anywhere? The answer is will one of us win the lottery and become a zillionaire? Who can say? But for right now, I have found some nice folk and made some friends. Friends I would love a chance to spend a few hours with, go to movies, have dinner with, catch a show, stuff like that. I guess it is just as well I am not a zillionaire because I might have to choose one, but I enjoy the friendship of all of them.
To the ladies of CS

NOT..!!
So stepping to investigate is a risk, but it is better to have taken the step, then to sit back and not made a move at all, and with regrets and wishing about what you could'da, should'da, would'da if you had'da done such n such... so put on your brave hat and off you go sending emails to all of those ladies... whosoever responds back in-kind, GREAT!,... if there are no responses back, then GREAT AGAIN, because at least you took the step... position yourself for finding other ladies of interest. Also look around in your own area and regions near you, long distance relationships are wonderful, because they are either preordained and destined to work, or they're not, no matter the distance.
So, go ahead...go, go, get up and make a move and watch what may happen....if you don't seek, you'll never find...if you don't knock, nothing will ever open up for you, if you don't ask, you will never receive... that's how faith works. many blessings

Wait wait wait!
This blog is so funny! I had to stop at the Lottery thing! Omg. yaw! Somebody help me. Anybody! Help me yaw........
When I stop laughing! I will finish reading it!....
. . . . . . . . .
Yeah! Ken.
Step out of your comfort zone!
I dare you....
You just won, the blog of the week!.......
Got dog!
I agree with SistaCallie 1000%.... make a move!! Dont just sit there not making a move and keep your mind wonders....
Whatever the results after making a move...dont let it trouble your mind. Getting reply or not... just go through it easily.. That is how life pass...there are always bad and good things in it.
Keep moving, Ken. You will find your woman someday, according to God's time and plan...

I will go to dinner. And a movie with you. That's the least I can do! Until you step out of your comfort zone. And write to him. I mean, write to her.
Men Up Ken!
have a gooder
Actually my true comfort zone is about 20 miles. I don't like walking much more than that and believe she should be close enough to walk to in a 1/2 day.
LoL, if someone above would check their FB they would see I did already write you today.
Another one, yes, I thought about it. Some time ago in fact, but it seemed top good to be real so I waited. Meanwhile you have begun to write publicly, and that is good. Allows assessment.
Angel, yes, photo taken in 1903. Made me very sad at the futility of it all.
Awwwwwwww!.............
You my buddy.......
Even 123Butterflies, has posted her request and look! she has also posted her glamour photo...Angel-face is in the running and all the other beautiful ladies of grace... now Ken, you know you've gotta do what you know to do best.. so far, you have no competition, so make your move!... send the flowers, candy and ecards... don't let it be said too late! I've gotcha back, but its up to you to rope 'em and tie'em like a rhinestone cowboy hurrry
Nice read! Thank you for the chuckle
I just want some dinners & sime movies, out of this! Until he find the girl of his dreams.....
I lives too far, from Ken. He wants a close by lover.
Ken is so busy answering his dash board mail, he hasn't had time to respond to his blog comments ... that's the way to go Ken! keep 'em movin'
Maybe that's why most of the mail I got was looking for hook ups.
Have a nice day Ken
They will ask you for your bank account number. So! they can contact the bank about it!...
Angel - A CS friend request is not needed to write me. They could just go down to the bottom of my profile and message me as I do with some now and then. So the Friend request serves no function other than to try to show you are popular with people who like to approve friend requests.
Ooo, I just found a new (to me) search category. No Contacts. People who have never made contact with anybody. I must explore this..
Well I see one unifying thing right from jump with the ladies who no one has contacted. 98% have no photo. A lot of those never filled out their profiles anyway. To me, no photo is the same as a sign saying keep away. I will honor the implied request and not waste more time in this category.
Well uh! What if your mailbox has their country blocked? Then they can't write to you! Unless your mailbox is wild open....
If you mean the never contacted, yes, I suppose they could have blocked all contact, but I suspect it is more of a case where they put up no photo, so why would we contact them when the others all have photos?
