So there you are, its 2am you have been online for hours, your bed sits empty and you just crave the touch of another, someone to share the couch and the rest of your life.. its at this time that someone instantly im's you from some place other than where you are, could this be the one? So it all starts over again, the hours of email the days on the phone and the scheduling of some kind of face to face meet.

And why is it that you always notice what the cam or camera didn't show in the pics, Sometimes i swear women have a certain angle that they can photograph thier face at that makes them appear average,, and what exactly is average today in our increasingly larger country? This frustrates me as i would like to think i am not so vain as to not be able to see through the ugly and realize alot of them are great people, but its like buyers shock.. here you are you have already spent money time and effort for something and its like you got tricked, but here you are now.. face to face with someone that you have spent 45 to 50 hours talking to.. you have some kind of bond.. but its not what you were shopping for, So if your like me your nice and just get honest about whatever bothers you and if its not gonna work you just tell them and go on..

But where does that leave you now? You have tried and failed once again, even though it really wasn't your fault, there are alot of people on the net trying to decieve in several ways, Although we must share the blame in the whole thing it still dosen't help us out, We are now more timid of people coming on strong to us on the internet, But we still want to love and be loved for who we are.

Ok.. So is this just me or do other people feel this same way?

My opinion....it's all just chance here anyway no?

Certainly, people are going to try to portray their most attractive "sides" and all the angles show the world to be a colourful place....

Or you could try my approach. Post your worst looking, least attractive,tired and unshaven face and let. Then, when the real "face to face" happens, there is no disappointment in dealing with those who only seek a radiant cover and care not for the book....

Good luck buds!!!!

First of all you should not have high expectations. Second if your looking for a size five barbie doll your chances of that are zero to none since like you say that the worlds size is increasing and third if you never tried someone soft and fluffy you may not know what your missing.

I can relate to your frustration and angst after a long day of shopping and not finding what you are looking for but then you lose me with........ But we still want to love and be loved for who we are.

How about some cliches? Is your glass half empty or half full? I want my cake and eat it too.
How about next time you go shopping just enjoy the experience, think of the not so slim woman you smiled at and how good your smile made her feel and how good it feels to smile! Think about the clerks and cashiers you had friendly conversations with along the way.

Since this is on shopping, I drove 16 miles yesterday to take a friend to a store she had never been to before. We shopped for hours trying to find her a warm winter jacket and there were more jackets there than she had ever seen in her life! I helped her try jackets on, hang jackets up, look for jackets we had put away, complimented her on certain jackets, discouraged her from other jackets, walked away when I needed to rest for awhile. She didn't buy anything in that store! But I had fun because I introduced her to a great place to get jackets, she had fun because she had never seen anything like this before and I know she will go back and get one of those jackets when she is ready! Are you ready to love and be loved for who you are? If so you are ready to love and be loved for who they are.

I think he is just better off not trying to find someone over the internet. If they take a pic they are decietful. On the webcam they are decietful in their looks. Maybe no one will ever fill his ideal woman spot. I honestly would be leary of dating someone sooo judgemental and expexting so much perfection that any flaw would be critisized. True, we all are looking for someone we are attracted to physically as well but sheez! he saw them on a cam, how can you fake that? I always thought I look better in person than in a picture and think I look worse on a cam. What do I know???

Maybe his "larger" statement meant population. LOL

Shopping? But of course! It's talk about what you want night!

I now choose marshmallows.

Well his larger statement was referring to us fluffy little marshmellows and if he is looking for a twig to put it on then he better look long and hard through that webcam until he finds the cord that is attached, unplug it and go to the supermarket to find his dream mate or the laundry mat. stop looking on line if you want someone perfect and just so you know, there is no one perfect so maybe you should stop searching now. It will stop the disappointment and maybe you wont have a pouty lip anymore
