RE: Dating Site Dilemma

Many of the men I meet on this site want get too involved too early without really getting to know the other person. They appear desperate and for me that's quite a turnoff so I may lose interest. I don't think either party should be limited to who they are chatting with if there is no contact or committment. After all we're all here to find someone so why would you want to limit your choices right off the bat? If the relationship continues and progresses then why would you want stay on the site?

RE: You've got mail????

It is definitely a concern but who ever said that your ideal mate would live next door? One of the benefits of this cyber source is that it does allow you to "meet" people you would ordinarily not have an opportunity to meet. What I prefer is to converse electronically for a while, if there's enough interest then move to phone (Skype) conversations and then just bite the bullet, take the chance and meet them long distance. On several occasions I have met someone not from my area on middle ground so we are neither of us on our home base..just make sure you get seperate hotel rooms! If it's someone from overseas... who couldn't use a vacation to a beautiful place? If it doesn't work out just have a contingency plan. My pet peeve are those people who want to converse endlessly using email. Don't have too much patience for that, email is a very poor way of getting to know someone after the initial contact and questions, leaves many things open for misinterpretation and only works for those who don't value actual human contact.
