This online dating thing is just not seeming to work. I've been at this for about 4 months now, and I've been on a plethora of dating sites. I met a guy here on mingle2 when I first joined and the first date was great, and I really liked him. The feeling even seemed mutual, but I never heard from him after the date. Since then I've had two guys stand me up, and no good luck with any of this. Any suggestions? I know I'm young, but I've got so much pressure from my family to date since I've never had a serious long term relationship. First impression - seems to me that your family are the cause of your problem here. You should not feel pressured. It's not like nipping out to the supermarket for a tin of beans this dating thing. I am sure that when the time is right FOR YOU - then you will meet up with someone special - HEY - maybe just like waiting for a bus in the UK, you end up waiting for ages - then four come along at once .... At the end of the day though - please don't allow anyone to pressure you. Dating and relationships are just one part of life - and overall - life should be FUN. |

Let's be honest here. Majority of us, when we first signed up to a site like Mingle, all figured that we would be dating right off the bat, and eventually after a couple of weeks we would meet "the one". Sounds silly right? But that is the type of expectations that a lot of people have. Most dating sites claims that their results are so fast. Eharmony, Perfect Match...both claim how awesome their matchmaking is. And, they claim that it happens so quickly. And, like it or not, most people fall for that. So, of course their are high and lofty expectations when it comes to online dating. And it becomes frustrating.
Bottom line. If you are gonna leave a site due to frustration cause it isn't working on your timetable, then best of luck to ya. However, if you can relax, chill and flirt for a bit, then you never know. Anyways, I can't post anymore serious stuff today. So....yeah....I love Hookers. Peace! |

What he lacks in height he makes up for in the ability to decapitate people at will.

Because I never get contacted by the kind of people I'm looking for, but I'm practically inundated with the ones I'm not....perverse contrarianism or what? |

Hummm because what you put out in the universe you get back. Maybe what you want and need are two different things. And there is a learning process so who knows
