soooo many single people, soooo many of us want to meet someone... how really RARE it can be to connect with someone... cherish what you have, if you have it!!! (or am I just missing something here)?!?!?!?

It's more than just connecting... it's being brave enough to acknowledge that connection and acting on it.

It does boggle the mind at times. The number of people who say they are looking and the number of people who are actually willing to meet. Huge disparity here. And why be afraid to contact someone that interests you? So what's the worst that can happen, they don't write back. A dented ego, big deal, at least an effort was made. How people expect to actually find the love of their life when they refuse to meet or are too timid to even try, amazes me.

When you stop looking for companionship, you lose that ugly dependent part of you and start to be yourself, therefore are more likely to find love.

It would be really good if we could just play "Elimidate". Line you all up and you try to impress us.....woo us. Then.......we pick and choose and ELIMIDATE!!!

For some it may be hard to commit without knowing there is something worth committing to at the other end.

How people expect to actually find the love of their life when they refuse to meet or are too timid to even try, amazes me. I believe today is my second full week of being on this site. This Friday will be the fourth attempt to meet someone. I've done the mutual match thing, with few results. The viewing thing means basically nothing. I've sent emails to maybe 25% of the ones I've viewed (respecting that they don't smoke being the number one reason I don't email them). Distance,,, well, there is a limit. I've not met one that does it for me yet. I'm going to keep on giving it a shot. I believe this is my fourth time using this analogy... If "no"s were bullets, I'd be a spaghetti strainer. Ya gotta try or just

(or am I just missing something here)?!?!?!? It is interesting isn't it. There seems to be a good ratio of men to women here yet it is rare to find someone in all these people that you can connect to. I think emotional baggage does play a part in it though.
