gtBulldog: Why does CS seem more like a Social Club then a Dating Site.
I think it's exactly what it's meant to be.. a social place where people can get to know each other better.. and maybe see if they want to take it further.
Same as anywhere in RL too really... you wouldn't just walk into a bar (or wherever) and ask someone on a date would you. You would get to know eachother a little more in some way first, THEN decide.
Hugz_n_Kissez: Well I guess you can't really get to know anyone if you don't socialize...It's great to see how people respond to things and also to make new friends!!!!!!!!
Yah what she said... It's like a virtuallysocial dating kinda thing.
riyablossom: ...hmm.... maybe cos we socialise enough before we date ...
cuz if i dont socialize how am i gonna get to know anyone...in turn how do i kiss them if i dont know them and i cant know them if i dont socialize...LOL in a round-a-bout way you know...
I think a big reason is that most "regulars" on here live very far away from each other. A date involving a compatible CS member could very well involve a 4,000 + mile plane ride. Pretty tough to be more then acquaintances.

Thanks Riya - not sure what will happen, but the folks I know here, yourself included, certainly make it more than worthwhile
