I've probably been on dates with ten or more women from this site. Some of them were...ummm...let's say not completely honest, and others were great. I even fell in love with one, and she even loves me back.

The thing is I guess....it's not that there are no local options, but so many just take a peek at the site, and then never come back that we're forced to search at a distance for those with qualities we like. The unfortunate thing is that the LDR is tough....not impossible, but very challenging. You'd better have your patience and communication skills fine tuned before you attempt it.

Paradox67: I'm curious to see how successful or unsuccessful others have been with online dating and why.


I think the many offer the person ( male/female) keep getting don't help.
Instead of giving the chance to get to know one person, he or she keep dumping him or her and jumping to new contact thinking is better.
After while, they found them self dumping every one and no one to get to know. At this stage they do get fed up and saying it hasn’t been successful and they give up.
Make up your mind and give chance to something to build up, that's my advice I guess.

Fruitful? No fraid not. Fruitcakes? Yeah, met a few... ughh! help


I wish I had a better idea, but here I am still. It's frustrating and depressing truth be told.

Yep yep and yep!
I met someone here over a year ago, and we are still going strong!
I did go thru a lot of emails and even conversations with guys here. And while none of them were bad, they just wern't for me and I was not for them. Just as I was about to throw in the towel thinking maybe I really didn't want anyone. I got a box a chocholates telling me to eat it so he could catch me. Well I had to see this over whelming romantic, It has been great ever since. Turns out he is very much a romantic and everything else I personally would want in any man.
Men complain a lot that we women try to change them, I would fight anyone who tried to change this guy.

BebeII: So true-I seem to get the lemons who only tell you their not looking for anything serious until months later...


Mine weren't lemons! All of them were really nice ladies, but not one I wanted to spend the rest of my life. We were able to connect well on the internet via email, messages, IM and to be able to talk on the phone. The spark and chemisty did not show up in real life.

you have to go through dating, to discover what you like in a woman, and who the real keepers are, not all are loking for love. in the beggining its all emotions and confusion, but in the long run theres a pair of shoes to fit everyone .teddybear

I just watched an interview on morning Aussie TV, with published best selling crime writer, . She revealed that she met her fiance on an line dating site. She said it was initially a meeting of the minds. The chemistry then followed. They showed his pic, kinda scrumptious, too!

Anyone with a great mind out there? grin

Yes and No. I met whom I thought was the Special guy and we have communicated for ~ a little over 9 months. Were planning a time to meet, talking about wheret to live if we went to the next level, etc.

Then About a month ago he wrote me one last time and when I responded inthe affirmative, He just disappeared. His emails bounce back with a unable to deliver due to a Connection Problem, please try again, later. His Phone # are out of range, please try again, later. . . No JearJane Letter, call or anything. . .De Nada.

I hope he is alright, but how do I know? I suspect He may have gone back to his Ex-wife b/c he told me she contacted him, again but how do I know?

I am attempting to move forward and on. I will feel real bad if I start a new relationship and Find out he was hit by a train and in the hospital. . . I don't know what I would do then.uh oh uh oh uh oh

CJ, you need to take time to heal from this anyway. Your heart was very involved in this relationship. I wouldn't get involved in another one right away. hug

Intelligence can be a heavy burden to bear.

My IQ is 156; intelligent people often compensate with having huge character faults!
