Yes, I am not a "dimbulb", that is a great word!

I am amazed that you guys replied at all. I thank you for your welcomes.

I just started on here today (3-19-07) and I really do not know what to
expect. I have read ALOT of the different things people have posted and
frankly, I am even more weirded out to try this. There are a whole lot
of people on here that seem to complain about every little detail. Yes,
I am here to try to meet someone special. Yes, I would love for a long
lasting, deep, romantic relationship to come out of this. But, just from
reading a couple hundred of these posts, everyone either seems to be
with someone or so bitter that they are not with someone, no one else
has a chance! When the love of my life and I split up I waited for 3
years. She never once indicated that there might be a chance for us
again, but I waited. She had another boyfriend, but I waited. She has
had 2 girlfriends, but I waited. I am not a man of infinite patience but
I have a lot. Finally I gave up, sulked around, felt sorry for myself
and cried a lot. I have finally decided to stop waiting, so here I am!
