Yokoke is right, there are some things people should ASK for first. I remember high school and all the dating games we played, didn't think it was like once you grew up.

Several have looked at my profile but few have written, the emails I've written mainly go unresponded to. Even if I wasn't in to you, I would write back and say something to the effect of thanks but no thanks.

At least the people on this site don't send me porn links, ask for nude pics or show me some that I really don't want to see (not all people should be nude online).

Hollygirrl, you seem like a cool person, hang in there and don't rush into anything.

I think most people are still single because either they aren't secure in themselves or they are searching for the perfect partner which does not exist.

Not pointing to anyone in particular but having an attitude on a site that really has some cool people on it doesn't say much for your character.

I waited 5 years for a woman to make up her mind, she was married BUT separated. She ended up going back to her husband then they divorced a year later. Did I pass up meeting another woman that might have made me happy, I honestly don't know because I didn't take any chances. NO ONE is worth putting your life on hold, despite where they are or what they've done. I say dump him and move on.

This is great, I wasn't sure how what I said was going to be taken. I did mean it in jest, however the website thing I did was real as was the answers.

The good ones (both men and women) are out there but not where you might think they are, you just have to be patient and know what you want, be willing to give it yourself.

When one lives a good life, good things come to them. It's not instantaneous but but it will come. Hang in there and your day will come.

Lex that is so funny, you made me and others I'm sure, chuckle. THANKS!

Where have all the good men gone? It's possible they are with all the good women but I doubt it. I had a website once and asked women what they wanted in a man, you would not believe what some of these women wanted in a "good man" versus what they had to offer as a "good woman". I won't go into details because it's not real pretty.

I don't have movie star good looks, won't win American Idol, will never be on Dancing with the Stars and am not a member of the Trump family but if that's all that's important to you, Prince William and Prince Harry are still single give them a shot and see how well that goes. (I'm joking of course)

Seriously though, what do women honestly consider to be a "good man"? All ask for one but say they can't find them, maybe it's because these ideas are fantasty rather than reality? Anyone?

Tabloids would have a field day with my life had I been a celebrity, luckily I chose the path to obscurity.

No problem lsing, I love good discussions and sharing opinions but sometimes it gets out of hand. Always looking for good chat.

Race, religion and politics are always subjects to avoid as they cause some of the most heated arguments but only when one party refuses to accept the other parties rationalization for how things are. I don't care if anyone agrees with my opinions, just don't try to make me believe yours and we'll get along just fine.

I believe in God, there is no reason not to, I certainly believe in Hell. I have heard many arguments to say God does not exist but people will argue anything to make a point and unfortunately it's easier to argue there isn't rather than there is. I don't have to believe, I choose to. If there is no God then I haven't lost anything compared to what I would lose otherwise. Those that kill in God's name do so by their word only, the God I was taught to believe in asks mankind to spread love and happiness, not death and destruction.

Oh and I'm not a bible thumper, I usually keep my opinions to myself on religion but since it was asked....

Thanks everyone for the welcomes but I have a question, how do all of you talk to each other? Emails? Forums? I think I'm missing something.

Hey shutterbug, I thought that at first too but I distinctly recall hearing Daffy's voice. He was a novelty salesman or something but I'm pretty sure it was Daffy. I miss the Looney Tunes, today's cartoons just don't make any sense to me.

Hey nurjoyce, Arlington isn't so bad (I even kind of like it). I moved here from middle-of-nowhere TX 3 years ago. I have a good job and finally decided to call this my home, bought a house earlier this year and am settling down for the winter (well TX winter anyway). How is Austin? I've been there a couple of times but it's been a while.

Hi and thanks unsure and fade2black, I like it here (full of nice people). Other than me writing too much, I think I'll fit in just fine.

Sorry CCP, you posted that before I hit the post topic button so I didn't see it. Hope to make a few friends in here, off to a pretty good start. See y'all.

Thanks shutterbug, this looks like a pretty good site, people seem more friendly here than the other ones I tried. I do have to laugh about one thing though, I looked to see where you are from and I could hear Daffy Duck's voice plain as day, does that mean I am old?

Hello everyone, just wanted to stop in and introduce myself. This site doesn't look like the other sites I've tried and left and I'm hoping to hear from ya'll soon.

Hi everybody, new guy on the block stopping in to test the waters. I've been on several single sites but none like this one. I like the courtesy and respect people are showing (I didn't read all the pages but I read about 20 of them) and Kojack has a great attitude (as do the rest of you). Looking forward to making friends here and maybe even stay long enough to call it a second home.
