I keep seeing such wonderful people here... why is it so hard for them to find a soul mate? Ive been contacted (and been the contactee) many many times now since I came here last summer, and still try to understand how is it possible to NOT find someone?confused

I can only imagine that we are all a bit too fussy... although some people will excuse themselves and say 'I just have high standards'. Maybe there should be an item in the personal descriptions where we can include on a scale of 1 - 10 just how serious we are about dating or finding a partner... 1=casually browsing thru to 10=marriage on my mind.smitten

It is def. true that as we mature we are not so flexible - maybe not prepared to move to a new place,leave family or give up a job etc. Id be really interested to hear what other CSs would be prepared to sacrifice or compromise on if they find/found their love far away.

Ive a couple of friends who did this - a Belgian guy who moved to Texas to be with his now wife... and a Brit friend whose USA wife moved to London for him.hug

I dont consider that to be fussy - but honest, and maybe a real test of commitment - if you found mr right via chat and emails...and he was wonderfully supportive from afar - imagine how super he could be when youre back to full health and chasing him! God bless your treatment dear BB! hug

Hi there Athenzgirl handshake Good post BTW bouquet

I would say (for me anyhow) that distance is the major stumbling block..... have seen and spoken to some lovely girls/women in my time here (about 2 months)....but hadn't thought of flexibility..until you mentioned it...confused

nice profile too handshake Steve

I would certainly relocate for the right guy. I don't that many people on CS are trying to find someone as they are just playing games.
