I think I am about done with these dating sights. They say how good you look in a pic but once you start talking to the person they don't talk to you again especially one that you are interested in. It is not even about hitting on someone or such it is once you get in the conversation they seem to get into it then it comes to a halt - someone makes an erupt exit and therefore is the end of the interlude. It seems all about looks and not how the person truly is inside. Sorry just needed to vent some feelings. I am supposed to go out of town to meet one guy that I posted about previously... but all this dissing makes me scared. My best friend and her boyfriend are game to go with me... any advice?

Keep trying....If your skeptical about your 1st encounter go with your gut feeling, 9/10 it is the right one, also, if things are already gpoing like this now, imagine what the future might bring. If ya need a friend i am a good listener.....

Chin up and chest out, and smile!

I was like oh my goodness this guy likes horses, music, family, etc... and then he blocked me. Thanks to my ex husband i found out when someone blocks me - I do not know how to remove the software - it just says when someone blocks me. So I just delete them and move on. I have like six of these dating sites going. I am almost like screw all of this and just live with all of my pets.

well u can't give up so easily
u have to see this dating sites as places where u can find good friends
this is my cyber family. I live pretty much by myself, and JSH is my refuge.
Now if down road u find somebody special well that is a blessing.
Don't look for it too much, just wait for the right moment, then the right person will appear and make u really happy

Actually I found out that if you are looking to hard, it never seems to happen. It seems like when you least expect it...then thats when it finds you!! I guess my suggestion is, if you do want to meet someone off of here, just go slow and talk to them for awhile. It doesn't have to happen right away, talk for awhile and if they try to pressure you into meeting them right away...I would question their reasonings behind that.
I actually did meet someone but we talked for awhile before we met. We spent hours and hours on the phone every single day. Then when we did meet, it was like we knew each other forever. Not once was there any uncomfortable times to where we didn't know what to say...everything was very comfortable and just right.
So again, I say just take your time and don't do anything that you don't feel comfortable with...you will know when the time is right!!

Unsure, does not live up to her name, very positive, knowledgable lady. Caddie, your an attractive young lady, don't be in a hurry, take your time, follow unsure's advice.
Bet you'll find a better quality of man, going slow.

Caddie, the first thing you mention is how they say good looking your pic is. Om the first thing that should be coming to mind if someone is interested in you is not how good looking you are and that right there should be a red flg! if that is your conversation. What it should be is them try to start a friendship with you. I know we all get lonely at times but to jump at the first chance we get somtimes gets us in trouble. The truth is if anyone you talk to if they actually give a **** about who you are,then they will take there time to actually get to know you.

There are jerks on dating sites, just like there are jerks in the real world. And the ones on the sites have the additional advantage of being able to hide behind their internet personae and anonymity.

You just never know for sure until you've had enough time to get to know somebody over and above what they type into a profile or a few posts or a handful of IMs.

I am as cynical as anyone about meeting people on these sites, BUT there have been some truly amazing exceptions, including the best gf I ever had. I do think it's probably a very rare thing to find a "soulmate" on line (look how many people use this site, and consider the number of actual real-life hookups), but it does happen, and there are certainly plenty of friend prospects here, too.

you need to enjoy the people in your life and dont desperately look for a partner. it always happens when your content with where you are. when my hubby and i met both of us were like "i want absolutely nothing to do with any kind of relationship right now" but it was love at first site when we met.

Don't worry caddie when something happens it will just be patient, Don't expect too much right away and don't just take anyone. If you're a strong person which you seem to be you know where you stand and that is really the one thing you need to start a relationship! because you already know what you're looking for lol hang in there and maybe someday soon probably not even online you'll be walking down the street and bump into the man of your dreams ~Alanna

yea--what alanna said--

ok--i'm moving along--
