I live out in the boonies where most of the population is over 40, married or computerless. I read another thread where the fellow complained that there were few women in his part of the country on the site. What does a person have to do? Move to a more populated urban area?
Rural isolation is a real problem; sometimes I think the datin sites have inadvertently made it worse by allowing one to find someone but then the distances, etc. are sometimes seemingly, impossible to overcome and that puts one into a "funk"; it is depressing; taking a bit from the strange matching procedures of ll187, perhaps each large cities should have, specialize in their own websites for their own geographic area; so many sqare miles circumference, that way it may make it much easier for people to meet. Just a dumb idea for cutting down the growing aloness and isolation of people..
Lived in an extreeeeeeeeemely rural area for years, recently relocated North, and to the city. Trust me, there's problems on all ends of the spectrum.
Being in a stereotypical, poor, big city neighborhood, it's not exactly great ground to meet someone. Make no eye contact, you didn't see a thing, put your head down and keep walkin, lock the doors when the chopper's overhead.
I think I'd rather flag down the combine driver toolin along a winding road.

Every long weekend i have huge outdoor party,s . live bands,few beers and lots of mary jane. tents everywhere ,huge bonfire and best of all no county mounties.awww the country life.
