In response to: There are people here on CS who have been here a long time. Some have found love and are married while others have found love, but nothing has worked out. I applaud the ones who have found true love.
Some here have never found love and have been here for years.
Even newer members complain there isn't anyone around their area, or it hasn't happened yet...
Personally, I am frustrated as hell with the whole concept of internet dating.
Please share your frustration, anger, sadness if you feel this way.
Ken I don't feel frustrated in a sense that I haven't met someone here cause even though I thought I was ready for a relationship reality set in and I suddenly realized I really wasn't.My late husband has only been gone less then two yrs and it's still kinda early for me to just jump into a relationship with someone.I have only been on this site since July of last year.
When I first joined I was still in the begining stages of grieving and moruning my husband's death. But since I've been on this site I think I've grown alittle I think in more then one way. I've also had the privilige of meeinging some very nice people here and at least two of them have become I guess you could say my close online friends.They've been there for me from the very first time they read about my situation and were there for me in always giving me encouragement along the way.They've also put up with my mood swings etc. They've shown me what true friendship and love is all about. For that I will always be truly grateful.
One of those beautiful & gorgeous men and myself have been chatting online for quite sometime and everyday in fact. We've gotten to know quite abit about one another just by sharing and communicationg back and forth which I feel is also important for any kind of a realtionship,friendship to survive and even if the two of us only turn out to be just good friends that's fine too.But we're taking it slow for now just to see where it leads.And if after awhile we become only friends it won't be the end of our worlds. At least we'll both know that we've become better people because of it.

Well Guys........ she's taken ........... CHECK "X"
Well I have been on here for a month and haven't received a message so, much like in life everybody passes me by for the pretty people. I which I had been born a long time ago like in caveman times when the big and strong determined things but then that just makes me a caveman and contrary to most peoples first glance there's a lot more than meets the eye. But I also believe somebody said that "the meek shall inherit the earth" well it's looking that way to me.

Losing your spouse at such a young age must be shocking. Not only you have grief for them, you go through a wide range of emotions. It just has to take time...a long time to gather yourself and try to move forward.
I am glad you have made close friends who you trust and speak with often. I guess you are not frustrated with the site, but thankful for it.

I've also learned from one of my two online friends that there's nothing wrong with taking risks in life.And when I'm ready for a relationship again I'll know it.
I had my first date from someone I met on internet in 2006. Moved right in with him, married by the pipe, Native American ceremony, left August 2008. Now here I am getting to make new friends and touching base with some I already knew. Of course I am still optimistic, and at times get frustrated, but after a good nights sleep, getting up smelling the cool crisp air and newness of the day, I now can say. My every waking moment will not be focused on am I ever going to find him. It isn't like a treasure hunt, going from house to house to get your list, all thought now that I think about it that does sound like fun But I will continue with the other things I enjoy and if it happens= GREAT.

Hey toughsob...I grew up in Towson...
You have to be active in order to find someone. Noone will knock on your door...you have to make an all out effort. Keep posting to the forums. A great place to meet people. Send e-mails and flowers to women who interest you.
Expand your search to include longer distances. Good luck to you...go Ravens!!!
