Many Men/women are on more than one datesite, so if this one if Free, they can stay on here for 10years.:smile:

There are plenty of datesites out there and I have seen same faces of men on different sites. Point is, here is not the only Option for getting a Date.

This site is advertise as a dating site.There are alot of looking for a friend sites out there.But this is not one of them so i am kind of confused why people use this site for that..And please dont contact me complaining about this comment....or say you got to be friends first which is simply not true.We date to become close enough to create a strong loving relationship not a friendship ,sometimes i feel people use that term to leave a doorway to get out of ralationship, and not have honor to tell the truth'''


If you're so unhappy why are you still here? Does someone have you tied to a computer in a tiny room, forcing you to send messages to people that haven't checked their profile in months ad won't ever reply? That must be hell!

Oh, is that right, then it must be my bad english....or the word "mingle" actually means socializing with others in general instead of merely "dating"?

Make friends at work, school, the local grocery store. Not that hard to make friends. Finding someone you connect with on a separate level is a little harder. That is why some of us opted for the online route.

Well, you can go to one of those pay sites to date. I hear that $60 bucks a month to be a premium member gets rad results. :tongue: laugh

Seriously? A strong loving relationship is not a friendship?

Why should anyone have to lie to make a 'doorway' out of a relationship? Because you can't handle the truth?

If this has happened to you in the past, they were probably just attempting to spare your feelings because the truth may have hurt you. So be thankful they cared that much.

There are 50 ways to leave your lover, and not many of them are fun.

Example:

If I'm not your friend, don't ask me to help you move into that new apartment, or watch a movie I hate.

And since we are not friends, don't tell me how you think I should live my life, and don't complain if I do have friendships.

My take is it's "home". Sometimes mingle has it's moods but don't we all? I would imagine one could search a long time before finding a site as friendly as mingle. It's been a long time since I've posted on any other social sight and when I did the "vibes" were not there. Mingle is what you make it and for the most part goes to great lengths to let you be you and that says a ton for folks like me that sometimes have no time at all and may be gone for a while but can easily jump back in and "just say hi" or get involved in topics. With all sites it takes an effort to get into the site groove but how many sites let you make your own groove? Not many. We seen many people take a little while to get in their pace, and once there, bring these pages to life. We've seen love come and go. Some stick and some keep trying and others make it their friend hang out, but mostly we've seen mingle live up to it's name.

I hope you find what your hunting for and I also hope you get the chance to see mingle for what it is and enjoy the big picture as well as your search.

A dating site? Sure
A site about life and people living it? even more

You do have to be friends with someone b4 you decide to take the next step! Thats why peeps pop up with std because they want to do the nasty and leave! I'm sorry but I want to know a man first. I have met men who was still married or he got a girlfriend with 6 kids!

I'd say he was having a bad day. Plus doubt hes reading the comments yall leave so ill keep this two cents in my pocket. But then again someone else can learn from this.
A friend is someone you'll be there for. I mean a real friend not an aqauintance. Now imagine wanting to be with that friend every waking moment. Go trough thick and thin no matter what. I sincerily hope u see that soon so that dating goes way easier for u. Good luck to all.

Mingle2, is a great way to start my morning, when I have the time. It is a wonderful way to learn about people from around the world, what interest them and how they are being effected by daily events. It is my favorite site, it is user friendly and with a click of the mouse I can decide whether I want to continue to view what is being discussed or move on to the next discussion. After joining I quickly realized that meeting people in the forums was the best way to get to know someone. I don't date to be dating, it is not a game or entertainment for me, I want to know something about the person before I go out with them, whether I meet them online or in my community. Most of the people I know in real life, I have many friends, I wouldn't date or go out with because I know what they are about and some of them can be a real pain in the butt. They are really good friends, I want them for a friend but not as a live in, soul mate or companion.

No pressure here on Mingle2 just a great site to associate and get to know people...the word "mingle" actually means socializing with others in general instead of merely "dating."
