why so many of the 21 and younger set joining? ( Archived) (18)

i have a question? why are all these attractive younger people trying on line dating? why aren't you guys out and about meeting in person?

maybe they're on here to try and take all the older guys away from us older women.

men- don't fall for it- we elder women know what you want & are better at it too.......

actually they are the ones that should be tipped for having boredom!!!



winter is just tooo damn long this year! it's snowing now and its almost march!!

wondered that myself???? cute young and STILL single....what the hell??

Well, I can at least answer for myself, and be as blunt as possible... fact is, I have THE hardest time making friends on a personal basis. Never know what to say, can't seem to find myself in a comfortable position (by that I mean actually going up to someone and starting a conversation) and while I can do things that I enjoy doing to get attention, I have a really annoying habit of wanting to stay invisible. And by really annoying, I mean most of the time just not really saying anything to anyone other than those who have to talk, like the clerks.

One example? I just thought I'd go to the mall one day and wander. Didn't really buy anything except for one game that was used, but when I went there I wore shorts, a t-shirt, and a big, green cloak. Yes, a cloak!! It wasn't really much to get attention, it was to keep the rain off of me outside, but you can probably imagine the comments I get from it.

Regardless, at the end of the day, I didn't really know anyone after all that, and I hate to admit it, but I don't even remember the faces of those I did talk to.

but most of us "vets" here have been around they block a few times and this was the next option out there for us. if i was without children and 20 or 21 again i'd be out at the club all the time actually..... i am a few times a month now.lol. people are too shy. get out experience life, figure out what you like, and who you like being with. most of us will never meet in person even though we have friendships ,all we have is the screen and maybe a few phone conversations. live life to its fullest meet new people.IN PERSON.

maybe they had teachers that did not come on to them and they feel deprived from the lack of media attention and want to see what they may have missed by having decent teachers


lol

lol AdJ! There are so many times where I daydreamed in class that a cute teacher would give me some "extra credit" after school. Those lucky kids...lol

But since I'm 24, I think I can kinda give some insight to this? Reason I'm on here is because I'm a very shy person in real life, and in public places. I clam up and find a hidden corner to dwell in while everyone else is hanging out. But on here, I can be my werid self without feeling like everyone's laughing at me...O_o...Nene is laughing at me! make her stop! lol jking=)

i think our teenagers have become dependant on the damn internet and never really learn how to interact with people. that's awful. i was shy until i was about 17 or so now i'm not. a switch just flipped and now i'm outgoing and talk to everyone. but the computer can't be the only olace to meet people. or the bar or whatever join groups , volunteer . do something we all need friends ( real in person friends) and if we only make friends online we are still alone in daily life.
