All I can say for my high post count is that I can rack those up just on the games themselves, which I love.

I could be wrong, but to me it seems most of the people who have found a partner on here, met in the forums, and had mutually high post counts. Torgo70, you are probably right as i have not been here for long myself, but i was just saying this is how it could seem to new members. i could be wrong too. I cant believe that everyone on mingle interacts in forums do they? |

The members in the forums are only a small percent of the sites members

I can feel some of what the OP stated. It's odd to see so many regulars with post counts in the thousands on a dating site. The other stuff he mentioned i didn't quite get.  My post count is high...what does it mean     That you don't have a life?

an honest reply about the high counts some of you have. When a new member joins and they see such high numbers on counts and people stating that they have been on here for years comes across that not much settleing down is going on or match making. Also going out on loads of dates and still not finding the right person doesnt give nem members much hope. This is only a first impression as a new member, i appreciate you like to mingle on the forums and chat and you have made great friends for life, however some and they do exist, come on a dating site as a last resort due to being lonely and could do with some actual company through maybe some bad times. Virtual chat is ok to a degree but finding a friend near by who you can call or meet up (after getting to know them first obviously) can help wonders. I know a lot of you will say "sort yourself out first" but i read earlier a single mum with 2 kids and she is now 16 weeks pregnant and she is on here looking for something. I really felt for her and contacted her, but as you can see not EVERYONE is over confident in themselves. That too can be unattractive to some. I am just saying.... so please dont bite my head off as it puts people off from expressing an opinion in the forums. I suppose since I've never tried to date anyone from here, I can't really understand how frustrating that must be, I mean from a human stand point, I get it, but I can't identify with it personally. It just seems like it'd be easier to meet a larger group of people in the forums, because you'd have access to more people to talk to, instead of trying to find individual people to email. And then hoping they respond to your email. And hoping they're still active on the site, so they CAN respond to your email. Again, I feel this way because I rarely respond to emails from people I don't know, so I base a lot of things on my own experiences. But whatever works....I hope you guys can find what you want, however you look for it. |

I didn't make myself clear. I am an expat and have no "animosity towards expats". I was quoting what I have heard the female expats say. There is a jealousy, for want of a better word, from the expat (read gringa) ladies towards the latino women because so many of the men prefer the Latino women to the American and Canadian. I don't care if you are green with purple stripes. If you like walking, movies, reading, dogs, and riding quads, and live within a reasonable distance then I want to meet you.

I think this is more of a facebook lite than a real dating site. I know right! that's sorta my conclusion as well! and I say that because you get to a point and have mutual matches....but then that's it..it's oh I wanna meet you, and oh I wanaa meet you too... then u don't hear anything from that person again.. im like ok??...soo u just wanted me to do what? put u on my friends list, or meet me list (or whatever its called). its almost like whats the point, because nobody seems to be taking DATING seriously..thats supposed to be the point of the site correct? but it doesn't feel like that. just feels like a place to join in on community conversations..which is what facebook is..  Are these friends you have sat down across a table from, or across the internet? I have people I speak with on Pogo. Are they friends? No. Would I lend them money? No. My neighbors are friends I wold lend them money, time and tears if needed. I can hold their hands and look in their eyes. To me that is a friend. Texting back and forth with someone over 1,000 miles away is interesting. My longest distance chat ws exactly 1/2 way around the world to a person in Hong Kong. Haven't heard from them in years and can't remember the name. |
