This has happened on more times than I want to count...

I'm on a dating site... yes there are more than just this one.... and a woman contacts me. We make a lot of small talk and talk about our hobbies, likes and dislikes and things seem to be clicking along for a couple weeks and when I ask her out to dinner, I get this for an answer... "I'm not here to date or meet anyone" or "I think you want to date someone more than I do".

Why would someone waste a couple weeks of their time?


No it is not one here... these other sites have no forums.

Some people use these sites as a mean of killing time, and have no intentions of actually meeting anyone...

xxfrecklesxx: Perhaps after a couple of weeks chatting they realise your not the one for them, but rather than telling your straight, they just give you an excuse...


It shouldn't take a couple weeks.... I hope they aren't that slow.

suggasugga: maybe you should have asked that question from start and your hopes and feelings wouldnt be hurt


My feelings are never hurt... I tell them right off that if I am not the right guy to not lead me on... I will do the same.

menu2: I've had some here in the states (so they say) contact me, and wind up their in Keyan stating in there profile they live here in the U.S. I've had several locals within 200 miles contact me when they aren't in this country. So it just takes time for the scam. Good luck friend.


I'm really not sure that it is a scam, because they never ask for anything.

Thats me as well,endless emails is a no go for me,and i make my self very clear from the begining,as by tel. i can detect the vibes better.-Most of them as soon they hear tel.say no thanks.-
langleygirl: Doesn't make any sense to me - if I'm attracted to someone, feel comfortable and am interested in getting to know them it would be logical to get together in real life and see if we click.

Sometimes people can be shy as well and just because you have the expectation that its ok to take it to the next level maybe they are not in the same comfort zone? Do you talk to them on the phone first or are you strictly talking via internet and then asking to meet in person? For myself, it would definitely have to be a telephone conversation before meeting in person.

I'd be cautious to jump to conclusions, because generally I find men to be somewhat pushy in that respect. They offer their phone # sometimes within the first email or two and truly why would I want to call up someone who I've not even had the opportunity to find out any info about?

Hence to my thinking, if someone is not willing to take the time to correspond back and forth for a few emails and actually same something, then what would there be to talk about on the phone or in real life?

Yes i agree, but how many are few?? of cource all depends, a smart person, will bring each time something else, to attract the other's person interest,and doing it time after time, discovers the knowledge capacity of the person.-MOST people i think they are afraid to give their tel. No, in fear of pestering,if nothing happenned between the two of them.- This i can understand.-

Not so sure about that but what I do believe is that women do not want lack of confidence, insecurity, and low self-esteem in someone. And I believe you can't fake confidence. laugh dunno confused uh oh

well ... there are a few , if I may say so, golden rules of seduction

1. tell a awesome looking woman, how much you`r admiring her intellect

2. tell a not so attractive Women how good she looks

if all fails

tell her that you are gay , and you are attracted by her strength and may she convert you
