@Ron, I don't give out my personal e-mail address, my msn is not my main e-mail address. msn is what i use to chat with people online, this guy was upset when he found out that I don't check msn e-mail for messages. He asked why, and I told him I use msn to chat mainly and not to check e-mail.
@blacka07 you first introduce yourself, and then tell the person what you like about their profile and what attracted you to their profile, then you can talk about anything else that you wish them to know about you.
@Virgo, well I tend to be more lax in chatting here or not chatting especially if they are from the same area as you then it moves quickly to the phone, but now I much prefer skype, no exchange of numbers and plus I can see them via video
@vyoletta, Well you would think they would not disappear if they are really interested in the person, maybe that is just it; they have no interest and only comes online to play games.
@scotch, I guess I could have done the skype thing. I just was not thinking of that, since he is the one that made first contact, and he appears to live in the area, so I was hoping to find out whether he was geniune in real life real soon. It had appeared that he wanted to meet real soon, I guess that is why I am a little thrown by the disappearing act.
The problem with so many profiles online is that it gives you a false sense that you have a lot of options, when in reality you are only going to me like 3% or less of people that you actually get along with.
know this, you are not the only one going through this. I am sorry that you had to go through this, it is tough to go through it, but nothing last forever not even the bad times; so know that this feeling will pass and you will be able to look back on this moment without a tear. With each lesson that life teaches us we grow from it.
I can only speak from my experience so yes, I have been there, and now I am here stronger than before and starting over.
Take time for you now, do exactly what you want to do, find new activities that you enjoy and live life.
In the looks department you are cute, but looks are not everything, look for someone that meet your standards and don't settle way below that standard. The character of a person is what you should look at instead of the outside appearance. Look deep within and see if you like what you see and then take it from there.
I have met someone who have put up a picture that they say was them when they were way younger. I am talking about the picture not even resembling them anymore, so I doubt it was them in the first place. That my dear is call deception, and if you are willing to deceive someone about your looks what else are you lying about?
I am sorry to say that we live in a world where people lie; so asking someone how they have reacted to a certain situation maybe coloured a whole lot of lies. Anyways sometimes you yourself don't know how you will react in a certain situation, plus there are other situations as how a person mannerism is and whether or not you like or dislike certain habits that this person might have. I am just saying there are just to many unknowns.
I would rather take my chances with someone that I am able to see on a regular basis.
The world is still big, it is just that we have the ability to communicate a lot faster and easier than before. I have taken this stance regarding long distance relationship because in order for a relationship to work you need to know the person, to know what their attitude are and what they like to see whether or not you like the way the other person react to certain situation etc. etc. You cannot do this online, nor over the phone.
You got to have faith that not everyone is being deceitful, do your homework find out as much as you can and then decide if they are worth your time or not.
but Erik, you not putting your real age out there can also go against you in searches. Plus I don't see what someone can do with your age, since they don't have any personal pertinent information on you.
