The truth is out!
One thing, in my humble opinion, that we all need to wrap our heads around is the fact that CS just ain't for dating. I hear people complain about not having their messages returned, or not getting enough attention, or whatever else irks these hopeful people on this lovely site. My attitude is that all this is or ever will be is a social outlet. Unless by some miracle you live in an area where there are hundreds of eligible bachelors/bachelorettes who not only use this site but also live within a reasonable distance to you... you ain't getting much else out of this. I don't say this to sound negative... I just think that ultimately relationships don't usually form with strangers over the web.There are very few real guarantees in life (much less on the internet). Still, I wish those of you looking for love - or lust - the best of luck. Me? Maybe I'll send a flower or a nice message every now and then... but I consider myself a realist. The chances of finding exactly what you are looking for on the web are slim to none.

I don't see myself here looking for someone, but maybe some friends that I can communicate with outside of CS. Thee is the occassional surprise where I may receive and email or flower from somone who lives a distance away, but not in another state. It is what it is and I will see what I see.
I guess there is no hiding that I am a little disappointed.
Y'see, we are the Rule. It's not working for us, nor the majority of people. Those who it works for are the exception.
But then, I've found that it's much the same with dating in the real world, so-to-speak. It works some of the time, but when you are feeling a bit less than, it's like it never works at all.
Maybe hit the library and smile enticingly.
