I never saw it as 'brave' but as 'smart'.
They created this wave of fear that was mostly unsubstantiated. Yes, some got sick, yes, some died. But what I've heard is that loads suffer more from the effects of the poison and many have died from it (heart attack etc). In essence any vaccination undermines & weakens our immune system which is the most sophisticated protector of our bodies. Of course there are diseases that are so dangerous it would warrant getting a vaccination, if available. I never saw the need for that with this virus. Had it been like the plague pandemic, I would've lined up to get my shot. Not brave, just using your head and common sense. And, to be honest, I still wonder if this entire pandemic was created to have the opportunity to inject almost the entire world population with a chip or the like... Another reason to not get it. No you can't do that. Use your sophisticated immune system for those deadly diesese. Use all the bull **** and fear of vacancies to not use any of them. Don't protect your children with vacancies because they will all turn you into a magnetic tunning folk. And I my lord 5G has been released. Have your cells started to melt or seperate. The amount of garbage you fools spread and nothing. No global mass deaths apart from the older MAGA supporters they were dropped like flies and eventually finding there is no God. fools till the end. What's your next wack box fear from the Christians You all have fear mongered against.: The Beatles Heavy metal Black People or any person that is not white like Jesus Hippies Peace Cartoons most things through history Christians have had some kind of dumb opinion on and dam anyone to hell for not given them the chance to streak and abuse kds |

for me? I'm not looking for anything but friendship, possibly an activity partner, obviously someone local would be preferrable but that's hard to find so I've no expectations of finding anyone really.. as to finding a mate/partner/THE one? doubtful at this point in my life so.. figure friendship is the best way to go
as to what the main reason conversations usually die for me? lack of intelligent engagement on the other parties part.. simply put, I lose interest after awhile cuz they can't seem to keep a conversation going OR the conversations are all about themselves.. their needs, their wants & desires.. their past, what they hope for in the future, or it turns sexual before we've even met (total turnoff for me).. so again, lack of intelligent engagement.. I try encouraging the conversation by asking open ended questions, which would allow them to express themselves OR to even ask questions about me yet.. it doesn't seem to do much and at this point, I tend to move on The reason you are possibly not able to find any form of intelligence here weather it be emotional or a intelligance that comes from experience through travel ingaging in many different cultures having an open mind is that all 3 are rare. OR(4 you dumb.)just joking.... Now there is a few things that the app does to create a **** show when dealing with..( I'm trying to not be a total dick) Guys that have no impulse control and are dumb, as soon as they get that match big brain shuts down and it the little guys turn and as we all know 3 to 4 minutes and he is gonzo. On the other side I've noticed that there is an over stimulation on the woman's side, and no its not coming from the little man. It's coming from a lot of them. I can almost tell how many men a woman is chatting with all at once by how long it takes her to reply once a conversation has started. I'm ok with been told give me 30 minutes or a hour to wrap up the conversation she is having and we can focus and truly engage. I know guys also do this but they can't cope if they don't get some team work going between the two department's. The big brain must do all it can to not allow the small guy to ask that same thing all the time and insist that listening is just as important as asking for n$d#s. I joking around a bit but a lot of us have lost basic skills that allow a relationship to form. There is a combination of people here and we can all find something to at the very least have a respectable conversation weather you love for love sunset and beach walks or if you a swipe junkie looking to get of your grandmothers couch.

TxsGal333 (Kristi):
Well, it appears the bots are awake & rising to take over the world again. Even Zee got deactivated a little while ago & had to make a new profile - which I'm sure you're already aware of. Yesterday I was merrily chatting along as OldCoot and today that account is back in jail again. I swear, it's ONLY when I participate in the forums do I ever get blocked. This is like, the 5th or 6th time now. The whole "put your face on the camera, turn right, turn up, turn left, turn down, (wave your finger like a little pekker)" BS never works, even after 30 minutes of fooling around with the dumbest AI on the planet that can't even do facial recognition. Could SOMEONE please reinstate the OldCoot account please. https://mingle2.com/users/view/83130632 I do enjoy chatting with you folks & I'm not all THAT offensive, am I? Bob Hyatt - Madison, WI yes pls. I like his work. Not cool guys. Ban then Jedi and let the Sith lords make a hive. |

So nice of Mingle2 to deactivate FishingMan's account for complaining here.
No small wonder this site gets such terrible reviews on the web. Any moderator with enough hutzpuh to directly face me would be more than welcomed. Reasonable people should be able to reach reasonable solutions without going all nuclear over peanuts. I'm stressing because I criticized M2 in a forum topic a few moments ago then read the rules. I also love messing with scammers and wasting there time. reporting does not work and now I'm stressed that I'll be banned. I legit try help. Owell |

I wanted to post all the confirmed scammers that I've reported and confirmed and Mingle has done nothing to help. They don't block or remove them and the last time I posted this info my account was banned. If I could post a screenshot this would be easy to prove. If you message me I'll send you all my complaints. |

Oh wow, that's new to me, ha ha ha. Then you are new here. I gave up on trying to find love or friends. Although once in a while I chat to some cool people. What I do now is hunt down scammers.. I think I'll start a new realm of all my catches. P.S. Don't even bother reporting them you'll just get a message saying they offline. |

Long distance relationship

The obvious solution is to MOVE 1st, THEN try to find a relationship where you moved TO.
If you are so thick-headed you can't decide where to move to, perhaps that's an indicator you aren't going to have much success finding a relationship regardless of where you move to. OR, that person is just looking for a sugarmama/daddy to support them regardless of location & is willing to move to wherever sugarmama/daddy lives. I'd do it, even just for the novelty of being "a kept man" for a change. Love your work. To make your 1st point more clear to the human jelly you relied to... Move off this planet and make it a better place . That's if I'm reading his inter racial comment right. If not yeah you right. he should move.

Love at First Chat

As has already been said here, scammers are very good con artists, they will say what you want to hear. If you feel that sort of connection, arrange to meet them as soon as possible, or a video call, Scammers will not want that, doesn't fit with their hidden agenda, so better to move on. Until you meet them in the real world, don't be drawn in to the fantasy they try and create. Good luck min your search. Well I'm glad that there is an awareness of scammers. 1st I don't think they that smart and I get what the author is saying and when a connection like that happens unless the person is a gullible sap most scammers don't spend that much time in developing a connection. I would know this because every now and then I'll troll scammers. They are easy to find. I'll prove it and in 5 minutes or less I'll find one. Lastly when a connection like this happens as long as you don't give any cash over and do the video call stay safe and truly find out if the person is real. Good luck guys be respectful to the woman on the app may we will all get to have that special chat. |

Agree with this. Very insightful.
The other day I wrote about love and the Year of the Fire Horse and in that I also mentioned what I read: that online dating is past its prime. People have grown tired of it, even though many still try to find love that way. In the beginning people probably acted more as they would in real life encounters --> making a genuine effort. Now it's all too easy, on top of that many people have nothing going for them in life so they're bored and trolling people on dating sites can be fun entertainment. Big problem is that men don't bond as easily as women and online dating probably doesn't help with that. Another issue is that all men -unless they do something specific to reverse it- have way too low testosterone levels. Including young men and since it drops 1% every year older men have even less. That means men's estrogen will go up et voila: you have the needy, whinging and demanding man that no woman wants to have by her side. Men cannot bond either when their testosterone is low and estrogen high. I believe this to big one of the biggest issues we're struggling with nowadays. Women on the other hand side often are too much in their masculine due to decades of having to prove in society that they can do it themselves. Having to fight to get respect and equality. Unfortunately that resulted in women with too high testosterone which then lowers her estrogen, making her too masculine. She loses her femininity because of it, like men lose their masculinity because of too low testosterone levels. Problem with this is that both genders have increased stress because of this. The body basically goes into fight flight freeze when our resp. hormones have gone noodle doodle. And it poses a big problem with finding love. Good news is that you can work on this and reverse it and it's not even all that difficult. Bad news is that most don't even know any of this and thus don't do anything about it either. As a result both men & women keep struggling to find love. There are 4 Agreements each one of us can adopt. |

To gravelridgeboy
you need to read your response with your mother or daughter or any woman in mind. I think the cork belongs in your mouth and you should not be on this site. even with all its issues in bringing peple together to find something more. At least we can all see you you are. Have some respect or STFU |

With some women I have met, doing so would be a wonderful idea. In fact, with such women, I'd prefer to keep them there until I'm dead. The fact that you are saying that out loud says only one thing to me and leaves me with two thoughts. 1. you are disgusting human that should STFU and know that your place in life is to learn some respect. 1and 2. Read what you said and think if some other POS was saying that about your daughter mom of any Woman in your poor pathetic life |

The reason why there a lot of dating sites with little or no results on finding a match, is because majority of the women are here to seek for financial Help from men, to sponsor there fun and exotic life and I return majority of the men here ,also don't understand the purpose of this platform in return are only seeking for sex reducing the value of the Real and Genuine woman who might be seeking for a true long life relationship or partnership. Now here is the thing women ,when a man sees you are the kind that's looking for a fun and exotic life yet claiming for are looking for a serious relationship,the fact is that your interests ,the question you ask and the demands you make even in a 1day relationship you are already asking for money and choosing exotic and very expensive places to be taken out that's it's selfs raise red flags to a man and in return he plays the kind of man that can get into your pants, but the thing is you then you begin to fall in love with him ,as he gradually fakes that life and others even end up pregnant because they don't want to lose the guy who sponsors there exotic life ,But at that point that's when the guy is tired of pretending to be fake and walks away or eventually you get married to him and realize actually he owns nothing that's why we see no many women stranded and stuck.men must also understand that women that are mature and real look for a vision, character, religious or spiritual connection, family mindset and what's your attitude when you are in error and how you will treat them,Above all a woman is looking for a father and a friend in a man ,and such women are the ones who will love you for you and nothing else , Majority of men have lost great relationships because they followed sex and not the heart ,when women know are just after sex they start to distance themselves,and the more she walks away the more beautiful she looks ,because men are blind when they have a Great woman and that's why a lot have become obsessed and abusive when they realize this cause there intention where all towards sex and not life and her true nature. But Love doesn't cost a thing when two people genuinely give 🤏themselves to being together,they learn to sacrifice, compromise, forgive and understand,love is free when two are decided because they are a as long as we are together mentality and help each other genuinely. especially career women,must under that being bossy to a man chases him away. 1. Great woman are not at fault for a guy becoming obsessed and abusive. That the insecurities of a week person. 2. A woman can be as bossy boss boss as she wants if the ***** cant handle it, it is a bonus he runs away. |

this seems very plausible.. personally, I hear "NEXT" in my mind when men speak of their encounters/exploits online.. as if women are lined up in a queue just waiting for a man to simply show them the time of day.. then they move on without a backward glance or a note of empathy when things don't go their way.. although it can be said the same of some women, I don't seem to find them anywhere near openly as crass as men..
the "50's" way some men think of women OR, as you put it, their religions/cultures deem women as 2nd's is so far outdated, it's ludicrous.. many women today, whether men want to accept it or not, are far superior intellectually than them.. some women wear many more hats simultaineously, in many instances, than men do.. speaking strictly for myself.. I say what's on my mind, I don't really care what people think because they judge without truly getting to know the real me first (thus "NEXT" comes quicker for men I simply converse with, however, that said, when I hear disparaging comments, OR they talk about their many exploits/conquests, I tend to move on quickly myself as I refuse to tollerate such behaviour from anyone, regardless of their sex) nor am I here to find a man, let alone "The One".. I'm fully aware that that is highly unlikely to happen so in that regard, have zero expectations.. I'm simply here to enjoy some banter, chat with old friends and new, and at times, enjoy being engaged in some stimulating conversation.. so to your point above, being attacked by cowards and masogynists simply reminds me that the choices I've made to remain single, are truly valid and justified! The treatment of women as secondary to men has deep roots in historical religious and cultural systems. Even though modern society often claims to reject those ideas, generations of conditioning have left those beliefs embedded in our collective thinking, almost like an inherited psychological reflex. In modern spaces such as dating apps, this dynamic can become distorted. As traditional forms of male dominance or social power weaken, some men struggle to adapt to environments where success depends more on mutual interest and communication than control. That loss of direct influence can provoke frustration, and in the anonymous, low-accountability atmosphere of dating platforms, it sometimes manifests as antisocial behavior, hostility, or attempts to reassert dominance in unhealthy ways. You brought up the fact that woman are now at a point that intellectually they have over taken men, but this has always been true and woman can very easily move past the physical part the interaction and look for the more meaningful connection through conversation and true interest not conquest. This is what guys don't get. It also doesn't help that evey few profiles sexual content and more is for sale. Thanks to everyone that has engaged till this point. |

The Dehumanizing Effect of Modern Dating Platforms: A Critical Overview
Dating apps and sites were initially marketed as revolutionary tools to help people find love by expanding their reach beyond traditional spaces. The promise was compelling: algorithms would help us meet “the one,” bypassing awkward encounters and time-wasting mismatches. However, the reality for many—especially men—has turned out to be something far more troubling. Instead of fostering authentic connections, these platforms often reduce human interaction to gamified transactions, leading to a degradation of emotional engagement and, in some cases, a descent into deviant behavior. 1. The Marketplace Mentality Profiles on dating sites are designed to be quickly judged. Users are encouraged to swipe based on curated photos, basic stats, and lists of preferences—turning the act of choosing a partner into something closer to selecting products from a shelf or livestock at auction. It's no longer about getting to know someone; it's about ticking boxes. This fosters an objectifying mindset, where people— especially women—become consumable items, and men become aggressive buyers in a digital market. 2. The Casino Effect These apps mimic the psychological design of slot machines. Each match provides a dopamine hit, much like a winning spin. For men, especially those who may not receive consistent romantic attention offline, this can create an artificial ego boost. Suddenly, he’s chatting with three or four women at once. This perceived abundance can lead to shallow engagement, repetition in conversations, and ultimately burnout—turning meaningful interaction into a numbers game. The initial high crashes, and all connections fade. 3. Repetition and Risk The cycle begins again—new matches, new chats, same patterns. And amidst this repetition lies another trap: scammers. Many exploit the emotional vulnerability that arises in this disconnected system. They offer something rare in the app world—focused attention. That alone can feel intoxicating. But once trust is built and explicit exchanges occur, blackmail follows. It’s a cruel twist that exposes the emotional and moral cost of treating dating like a game. 4. From Hope to Hedonism For those seeking genuine connection, the constant failure to form anything lasting is demoralizing. After enough time, frustration takes over. Users stop seeing profiles as people and start interacting with them as faceless objects. At this point, the mask drops. Conversations grow crude. Empathy fades. And in many cases, especially among men, what emerges is not just detachment, but a permission to unleash the inner voyeur, the troll, or the predator. The platform becomes a stage where deviant behavior is rehearsed and refined Im working on the evolution of the behavior and reactions of what these apps have done in how woman interact with men. |

. That's if I'm reading his inter racial comment right. If not yeah you right. he should move.
you then you begin to fall in love with him ,as he gradually fakes that life and others even end up pregnant because they don't want to lose the guy who sponsors there exotic life ,But at that point that's when the guy is tired of pretending to be fake and walks away or eventually you get married to him and realize actually he owns nothing that's why we see no many women stranded and stuck.
