Hi all.
What is your reason for being on this site ? ...and is it working for you ?
Me personally...love the forums, getting mail, oh and getting flowers ! These are not things that usually happen in the real world (not for me anyway). I am getting a buzz out of meeting everyone here, some of you are quiet, some are outspoken, just enjoying being sociable again as it is hard to get 'out & about' with a tribe of young kids.
Here to find someone....but think I might have to vote for the forums !

yep, internet dating was all new to me. I had been out of dating and relationships since my partner died, now 8 years ago. I was actually so shy I could not talk to a bloke. I came here to learn to chat with people again in a safe environment I was made welcome and that meant a lot to me. I now talk to everyone I meet, from the Austrian Logistics manager in a cafe yesterday to the lads at work
I have met someone very special to me on another site, even though we live on the opposite side of the world to each other, we are doing good., we have met 8 times this year so far, but are still realistice about our location problems and are saving frequent flyer miles
I have met people who live close to me boys and girls and had some very good nights out.
When I bring Alfie, the Harley across Australia next year I hope to meet some of the Aus. folk
When I'm busy I dont post much, when I'm I regret posting but mostly the forums are just damned right funny, it could be a stand up comic show on the right night
Hi everyone When i was here before i was reading the forums and posting in some. Went away and tryed the dating sites....... Now back for the forums as i enjoyed reading them even when i didn't post............. There was good old days............ and by reading the threads i see they still can be fun to read and join in.

blondeaozichick: wow.. didn't know there was so many polls on this site.. I clicked on the 'hot polls' link and there are pages of them
Yeh, had a flick over that before posting this poll. Actually filled in about six of them, before realizing I would be 78 yrs of age and still filling in polls if I didn't stop straight away
aberfoyle: Funny you should mention not having the right options...felt exactly the same...where is "NONE OF THE ABOVE" when you want it
its almost impossible to find someone in any dating sites, but its the forums, that are interesting, some are all right, and some arnt, but thats life...you sure get to know someone more then seeing whos on line, forums bring out the psersonally in people, and you learn more about the peole you have seen on line, as it seems its always the same people until someone fresh comes along, and all eyes are on that person, and over time, they too become the same as everyone else, lookong, hoping., maybe maybe not, next!!!!!
some turn you on, and some dont even turn on the lights!!! i think you know what i mean.... but thats life... maybe tomorrow...
im really only here for the forums but i did met some one..I like him and I enjoy the fact hes 8hrs away but Im also with 8 sites ive met one guy face to face and OMG scary....
