Well for women it’s going to be pretty soon. laugh But when you say "meet someone" can you be a little more specific? Do you mean meet them in the flesh? That’s takes longer of course.

bballgoofster: just wondering how long people have been looking out there for a match


I've been a member of the site for 6 months, and on the forums for at least 5 of those, and wasn't really looking for a few of those months...but I have found him after months of observing each other in the forums and being drawn to each other. I couldn't answer in the poll because my timeframe didn't match any of the choices. wine

I've met many lovely female friends on here. As far as finding a love interest, I found one, after about 6 or 7 months. Very nice man. But it didn't work. I'm sure more will come along. You have to give it time & be patient. I'm more here for the forum & the friends I've met. I don't look for love, I wait for it to find me.

This is my first time post on a dating site.... So I guess I won't know what the norm would be, for me.... I set this account up a few ago... but only started actively participating in the forums.

I met one person from Australia last year. Hope to meet
another one in not too distant future from Ireland.
Have never dated anyone from this site. Have several friends
and hope someday I will meet several. Still waiting for
him, but will know when we see each other and look in the
eyes. hug

It seems like there are a lot of potential dates out there, but because there is such a scare of abusive emails, it makes it difficult to get a return email or flower. Maybe it could be the way I'm asking, or the other person is just not interested. I have met someone who turned out to be be great friends with me, which took about two weeks, but like most peope, some just give up all together.doh
