I have been on here since three o-clock and still haven't found the love of my life. I think I am going to curl up on the couch and cry now.

I've been here since 2007, talk about patience! LOL

Have you reported this to the HELP section yet?

Help helps those who help themselves.
So I think I will help myself to another beer.

Maybe you will get lucky in Mingle AA.

I think this is a wonderful post full of wisdom and good advise.


Seems what few men I have dated since starting to date a good while after my husband died have been so very desperate, to the point of needing to be saved in some basic way...they just pushed and pushed and pushed until they pushed me right out the door at a dead run! Desperation, to me, means you need to fix stuff in your own life. Learn to be happy with your own company, learn to like who you are. Desperate people have nothing to offer/bring to a relationship but rather just need and need and need.

So as others have said, slow down, take your time, be a friend first and at all costs avoid coming across as desperate! Good luck, hope you meet your special someone when the time is right.

Amen to that one girlfriend! drinker This is the only
one I'm on now, and that's just to play with all the Mingle
peeps. :banana: Although I have to state that I did meet my
SO at POF, and did make a couple good friends that I still
keep in touch with through Yahoo and FB. :smile:

I've been looking for the right one for 10 years...i'm still looking.

Have patience, as the saying goes:

"Good things come to those who wait."

Not five whole days! You mean you have not blinked and found "the one"?

Suggestions? How about patience? Just because you pay for a site does not guarantee results.
not to sound harsh but honestly i have been patient most of my life and i am still not happy so what do i have to lose to be a bit slightly impatient?


Now that borders on the stupidest thing I've heard in a long time.

patience is a virtue ... not a playing card.


and a whole week .... what the crap do you expect to find i a week?
herpes or a god digger?

go buy a hooker.


I've been on PoF for about 5 years. and yes I've met people but no ... the one .....

you are stupid if you even look for love .....
it just happens .... you can't find it.

just socialize and keep your hope bubbling to the surface and drop the impatience ... its for idiots.

can't not comment on this one.....
I've found much more intelligence in the PoF forums ... just more nazi mods ...

PoF is more Canadian. that's the big difference
so ... for Canadians ... its way better ... more people closer to home ... so there is actually a good chance of meeting them face to face and not just cyber chat/crap.

Really? The men I've met haven't been desperate. They seem to be looking only to serial date... lol

I tried POF and have to disagree about the intelligence there. To each their own, though.

I am on POF too for about 4 or 5 months and had no luck on that site. Lots of game players; almost as much as there are on this site; but at least the forums are interesting.
