I've been on several dates with woman I've meet on the internet. I even married one. Didn't work out, but I hope that answers your question. Let me think, I've meet 4 that I can think of, and 2 were very very very hard work to convince to meet. And I like to be honest, the 2 that were easy, were not so attractive, and the two that were hard looked like super models. I don't look all that good and I'm a truck driver and one was 14 years younger then me, and the other was 7 years younger, you can see why I had to work my butt off! My main asset is my brain I guess
I thought about a woman from another country too. I talked to one in the Philippines years ago. She sent me a packet with her pictures and we did a lot of video cam chats too. Real nice Catholic lady. I talked to her on the phone but it was real hard to communicate. I would have loved to have hung out with her and helped her with her verbal English. She could write English better then me. She knew what she wanted and was real smart. Her brother lived here and was very successful. She wanted to go to school here. She was flying over to visit him and wanted to meet but I politely backed out. Nothing wrong with a woman knowing what she wants as long as she was honest. I'd consider it again. It would be exciting, but she would have to be smart and willing to learn how to be on her own once I showed her around. I wouldn't want the responsibility if she was immature like a child and only wanted someone to take care of her. If she had goals and I could help her, and there was attraction, I'd go for it guy. It doesn't matter if it's an American girl or a foreign girl, we all have expectations in a relationship.
It's slim pickings over here. Maybe the woman say the same thing, I don't know. I guess the woman I'm interested in just don't need to advertise to get a date. I think woman feel too self conscious or think it's an act of desperation to advertise for a date on the Internet too. Wish I had some better ideas. Friday night. Maybe I should become religious and start going to church. For real. I know the bar doesn't have what I'm looking for.
Yes, I recomend giving up. If you look at it as a rational decision, then yes the answer is clear, just give up and learn to love yourself. To keep fighting a loosing battle is not a strategy, it's insanity.
It's complicated. The older we get the harder it is to adapt two different lives together. And most of the good one's on both sides are taken. Let's be honest. How many single woman are there in our age group that fit the criteria we are looking for in our local area. The odds are not good. It's that simple.
Like it or not, we have to deal with it. My new goal is to just forget about finding true love. It's a calculated decision. If I don't stop putting so much effort into the search, I risk destroying myself in the process. Not going to risk that. And from experience, I will tell you I have succeeded in finding what I believed to have been good woman I was willing to devote and share my life with, but over a short time, it became apparent my efforts were in vein. So here I sit, with great amounts of time and money tied up in searching for this love I desire and I'm empty handed. If this was a business of mine, I would know to give up and move on alone.
I'm not a phycologist, just a truck driver, but to me, I would think it is not because the kids want you to themselves. I think they want you and their father back together, that is what they truly want.
When you bring another man into their life, they are feeling betrayed.
I'm not saying it's true in your case, but I've seen it happen.
OH...sorry, new here. I thought this was a forum. But I was wondering how you did that magic. But I don't think if I emailed Steve personally he'd see the humor in it.
Steve, I've meet some real nice woman from Canada. One is in a relationship, but the other two are not. Keep trying. Let me see If I can find my hunting analogy for you buddy...
It's not just you. I think most of us are experiencing the same thing. I think we have to look at it more like a "hunt". I'm not an animal hunter, but I have tried it. We can't expect our "prey" to just walk up to us and surrender. It takes time, practice, patience and some luck. Sometimes some "bait" is helpful too.
Oh, and old guy, don't set the wrong bate, or you can end up attracting the wrong type of animal than what your hunting for...
Also, expand your hunting area.
If the fish don't bite, what do you do? Try a different spot!
And the more poles you put in the water, the better chance of catching a fish...
I can't believe how many married woman on here. If I was a husband and I found out my wife was on connecting singles, well, there is just something very obviously wrong with that picture.
hey that resembles me, "despises authority". Maybe I'll add that to my profile. Unless it's a woman and we're playing a game in the bedroom.
I just don't know who is talking in the picture, and then sometimes, after looking at the profile, I feel like asking, "hey who is your hot freind". But I know that is rude.
That reminds me of this comedian and a joke he said. He said he was in a bar and a woman told him he'd look really good if he lost 25lbs, and the man said, if I did that I'd be talking to your hot friends over there.
