Reminds me why I have just given up. Last I tried looking was maybe 10 years ago now. Talked and talked to one online, never wanted to meet. Bring it up and she goes nuts. Asked more about where she worked and she went nuts. Send out 10 greetings and get maybe one reply.

I did work next to one who was all over all the dating sites. And we all knew she was mostly out for free dinners. She did tell how she hooked up with this one or that one from time to time. But we saw what was going on. She gave off a crazy vibe like you would not believe.

Ger one of those dining club cards for when you do meet them out somewhere. The ones who think you are cheap are not worth it.

This is standard for online dating in my previous experience. Men generally are a lot less fussy that women so will send out messages a lot more willingly. As a result women are inundated with so many messages that it’s not practical to reply to them all. They will quickly scan the profile and ignore those they are not attracted to. I agree it’s frustrating and they could easily have a standard template reply for those they don’t want to chat to (thanks for your message but unfortunately you’re not what I’m looking for. Best of luck in your search etc) which would at least provide a level of common curtesy.

Wish having a dog made sense for me. .

If you have a cute dog in a dog
park, women accept that you're
a great guy. Truth..

Go to church. My son found his
wife that way. 10 years ago he
decided he wanted a family, he
was a captain in the AF. He started
going to church and soon found
a gorgeous well educated woman
to marry. They have two kids and
he's a pilot for AA now.

Church is full of great women if
you can tolerate the religion. I
do, and I'm an atheist.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

One plus for the guys is if you want to go to something live like speed dating they are generally short guys. Not that there are more women to choose from, but speed dating, volunteer dating, they are always oversubscribed by women and short men. Women get wait listed, men can call at the last minute and be put on.

Still doesn't mean the women are serious, just that you can show up to be rejected.

That's one of those darned if you do, darned if you don't things. Women go on and on about their boyfriend being well dressed, but then they assume a well-dressed man is gay.

The sitcom, Happy Endings had a character, Max Blum, played by Adam Pally who tried to break stereotypes. He was a chubby slob who dressed horribly.

Here we go again:

It seems like a reasonable request when/if a guy finds a female that interests him, to be able to read her posts to the dating sites.

I still recommend quality prostitutes. It is the most honest relationship you [not u] will ever have. Without having to go through all the bullcrap, the lies, and crushed hope.
