Ah, try telling that to Indian Aunts, as anyone will tell you that is their main pass time trying to marry off or set up anyone over 25!

It's comical, but true! Rather nice actually!laugh

tainogirl: Its a bit of a challenge to match people up if you don't know some of them very well.


This goes back to my point that if you never take a chance and start making friends, you won't ever meet anyone. No one is going to come knocking on your door without getting to know you. If they do that falls under the guidelines of psycho.roll eyes

The reason this question hit me....

Is this site really working for you as a dating site...

There seems to be very few matches and relationships that last longer than a date or two....

The distance is a huge problem IMO....

Lots of texting, talking and even the odd meet but nothing very much comes of any of it that I am aware...

Does it bother you?

Is it important?

Does this website have any baring on your life other than coming in here to talk to people and chat?

These are the real questions you should be worrying about.

If anyone puts all their faith in a website delivering them the life they dream of then they maybe waiting forever, obviously.

Statistically some people will click, as it's the law of averages!!

I think that is the point Robbie, why people are here and what there expectation is.


If someone is seriously expecting to find a partner for a full blown relationship, distance is a huge issues eventually one of you would have to re locate and that's a huge decision. If they are looking for a flirtaeous pen pale relationship, then i can see it may work. JMO

This site has very little daring on manys real lives I would imagine

I just wondered what others views were...

Please do not make everything personal to me.....

I suggest you type words addressed to all...

I address my questions and answers to everyone as this is a public forum...

RobbieM: If you need help with the idea i'll gladly help.

The experiment might be very fruitful, and you never know you might well find someone suitable!

It's very practical and will apply to religious communities, ethnic groups, those with specific interests, in fact lots of subgroups!

Free advertising i can point you towards, just find a venue, and as i am not far away i will really help you set up the idea if you like!


Thanks Robbie,

This is absolutely a doable plan. Also I’ll be glad to introduce you to the contacts that I have regarded your art works.

I agree. It is up to us to explore and attempt to go beyond chatting on the site if we are truly interested in more. What's the worse that can happen? Someone does not respond or declines? (Hopefully politely.) That's life. I've been on a few dates that never went to the second date. I don't regret it. I found the answer I was looking for. The truth.

I did, it was posted to all, it's a forum and i would expect others to voice their opinion, if they have one.

That is the point of a thread, so everyone chips in!

Peoples expectations clearly vary! To me it's a website where i say hello and pas the time when am not doing anything else!

For instance, when i am in Malta you won't ever see me on the forums, i'll be spending my time doing something else.

I see this a a website, and i have met some interesting people through the site some who i call friends now.

Statistically some people will meet on here and other places as well, but the majority of relationships are founded in the real world.

Think of this site is the opportunity to say hello at a party, and then after the party you follow up your interst in someone you spoke to briefly at the party!

So think of this as the "Hi" and then make your efforts to meet someone on the site if you so called inclined to do so!

Robbie, I think some very good points being made and even through humor, a story is being told.

I'm going to potentially throw myself under the bus with a question.

How many women would meet me if I offered to travel?

I'm doing this to demonstrate something and I'm not offended by honest answers. I know I'm not the best looking guy and I'm not looking for women to give answers that won't hurt my feelings. I want honest answers with the understanding that this is not a real meet. This is just to make a point.professor

It's 'give and take' - I used to travel to meet lovely ladies and they, of course, would travel to meet me.

I agree, to me it's part of my social network when i'm home and i enjoy the interaction.

Have made friends and met some people in real life, which was great wine
