I guess this site is like all the rest,nobody replys to mail,and seems like no one wants to really get to know me here,thought I would give this a try but its clear that its a big waste of my time. too bad I had high hopes that I might meet someone but I guess not.

Good to see you taking part in posting, follow the forums for a while and take it easy you have only just joined. Give it some time and hopefully you should make a few friends.

my experience here has always been that no women closer than 300 miles wants to talk to me, are they all secretly married? playing? afraid to actually meet someone? dunnow. its safe to ytalk to someone you know you will never meet, but then whats the point?

Well your profile excludes any gal that isn't eye candy and must be issue free. That might make your pool a little empty. Then again. If a gal was issue free, she may not have the need to be on here. Just my thoughts on it. But I will tell you there are some amazing ladies on here. And the ones who are hundreds of miles away? Be there friend and they will clue you in on what your missing in your approach to catch them. I've been here less than a month and I have several really great friends.

i have met several good friends on here over the years... But heres the thing. its a dating site not a friend site... you can have whiskey for a friend, a woman for a friend, but you will grow old sleeping alone drunk. lol. ( only half kidding) i expecally find the men who always tell the women on here exactly what they think they want to hear instead of the truth... mabe thats what they want but i am an open book, i will tell the truth even if it burns,, no nonsense, and i expect a woman to do the same, and contribute money to the household Instead of spending all of mine on shoes and clubbing. WHEN i TELL a woman that, i usually never hear from her again.

WHEN i TELL a woman that, i usually never hear from her again. attitude can be a turn on , turn off because its a dating site doesnt mean there is any guarantee that the people here all want to 'date',, thats why there are options when we create the profile that include more than 'dating' when we are 'picky' about what we want, its naturally going to narrow down our choices,, and I thought thats what was the point of pickiness

IM PICKY TOO. WOULD RATHER BE ALONE THAN with someone that is a compromise... its not like i cant get a woman, i get offers... mostly because they smell money though.

What kind of emails are you sending out? Are you reading profiles, then writing emails that actually give women something to respond to? If not, start doing that. Say more than hi. Otherwise, expand on your profile. It doesn't say much. Add a few more clear pictures of yourself as well. Then, get more involved in the forums. That tends to work better than anything else. Good luck!

Here let's practice once and see how I do. Hey singmesweet. I have not had the chance to chat with you yet. I've been reading your profile and I like that you really seem to be at a place of enjoying life. The movie list could me mine. Makes me want to look up the music you like to see if I am missing something I might enjoy. Where would you suggest I start?

Not too bad. :) Though, I'd probably come back and ask what kind of music you actually like to see if you'd be interested in what I like. But yeah, that's starting a conversation based on something you read, which is a good thing.

If nothing then I would YouTube a few bands on your list to see what you like. Secretly I would have gone back to that cute picture with the blue top with the tie string then reminded myself to stay focused on you and getting to know you more.

Well, that answers my question to you from the other thread as well. That leads me to other questions. Why not say in the beginning which bands we have in common? Or what you like? Might lead to a bit more detail and a better response.

Lol Two very different threads in my opinion. This one was trying to give the OP some pointers on connecting with ladies. And yes discussing what we have in common and what is different is important. The shirt thing was more a remInder to the OP to stay focused on the person. That the girl is more than a pair of boobies. Truly you are a neat person and it doesn't take long to figure that out. If someone it trying to find that out. If they are not, you gals are sharp and pass those guys up. Then they are confused why they have no "luck".

I'm not even sure why my shirt is part of this discussion. Yes, it shows a little skin, but nothing is hanging out. If that's enough to distract someone that much, or make them think I'm not smart or anything along those lines... yikes!

Your shirt was fine. It was a poor example to use.

Well, you can blame the shovel when you don't find gold, or you can learn how to use the shovel to find the gold. Seems like you're expecting the shovel to make you rich though.
