It's strange when you write to someone on a dating site and try to set up a meeting or maybe a second date and you find you have to wait a week or two before they have time, even half an hour, to meet you! Some people have to look at their Daytimer to fit you in! How serious can a person be about finding someone compatible if they date so many people they forget who the heck you are and everything you told them!

Why don't people concentrate on maybe two or three prospects and get to know them. I know the old thing about chemistry but instant chemistry seems to evaporate quickly and chemistry developed through friendship seems to endure much longer but you have to take the time!! It seems a lot of people are out for quick gratification and instant love then comes the next person will be the one and people end up staying on sites like this for years, in fact for many years, never really finding a mate!

True, False, Right, Wrong ~~~ What do you think?

Well, most of the people have a life outside CS, that means responsabilityes and busy times...
And it might also mean they actually want to find the right time to meet a person, instead of just meeting them outside of Walmart, while "I am loading the things in the truck"roll eyes

JMO, if they have to schedule you in, are they really looking to have a relationship?

Unfortunately, working single parents, might be at the mercy of their kid's schedules, but if that is not the case,... being penciled in, sounds so impersonal.

Some do have more time. If you really are serious about trying to have a relationship, you have to make time.

Phoning during the week, or an email, and then the possibility of "hooking up" on the weekend for a few hrs, is not (JMO) a relationship. If the 2 people involved only want that, its not a problem.

For the ones that truly want a relationship/connection with someone, JMO, not right.

Do people really know how to have a relationship?

Good luck!

completely agree with you KHD...

yeah let me work in a date on short notice...right inbetween football practice, dance class, and a slumber party. it could quite possibly take a week or more to make and find Quality time...oh unless your just after a quickie, then let me just skip lunch and meet you for 15 minutes...

a relationship takes time...thank goodness im in one and he is understanding..grin
