Topic: All the real people are fake | |

Yes. Maybe I am expecting too much from it but it sounds good in theory. Like those ads on the TV where they tell you to call a premium rate number to chat right now with girls that want to chat with guys in your area, when they're all really just sitting in a call centre in London.
It seems good in theory because it's convenient and everyone's on the internet these days, so it doesn't seem absurd that there really would be loads of nice girls in your area looking to chat with guys and they could even be the type that really wouldn't need to go on the internet to get male attention. But they can't be bothered with all the fakes and weirdos either, so if you do find a nice girl that wants to chat that's probably really all that she wants to do and she's really not interested in meeting a man from the internet. |

I wish you all the best. don't lose hope |

It kind of feels like that sometimes. Nobody at all that seems like a real or interesting person and then one comes along and just when you think you've clicked it's "user deactivated" and you're left thinking that that was all bollocks then and not a genuine person interested in you. You think that there's nobody real on this internet and you're being taken in by them because they seem like a real person at last and not just some sad case that resorted to trying to meet somebody this way like yourself. How realistic do you think that it is that you could meet the type of person that you would really like to meet on the internet? I've seen your posts before when I first started and have seen some of your posts lately, though I don't comment on all of them. mostly because I feel out of my depth. based on your recent posts with all due respect, I kind of feel like you have been reevaluating things in your life. there seems to be a little something that's different. what you find online or in the real world depends on what you put out there. there are real people, both men and women. it takes time to find that hidden treasure. there are also scammers and people who are confused about what they want. it takes time and sifting through the incompatible ones to find what you seek. good luck Yes. I have been reavaluating my life and trying to feel positive about life again since finding out what someone that I met through this and thought was a nice girl was really like. I've rewritten my profile and even chatted a little bit with some women, even if they weren't that interesting. I'm just not that bothered about trying to meet someone like this now and don't want to put a lot of effort into it instead of actually getting out into the world more and meeting real people again. |

And no offence to any of the forum ladies here. I can't really travel to meet them due to my personal circumstances and I wouldn't expect anyone to want to get on a plane just to meet me, even if I would be happy to meet them if they happened to be in my part of the world sometime.

I'm just not that bothered about trying to meet someone like this now and don't want to put a lot of effort into it instead of actually getting out into the world more and meeting real people again. you know, there's no magical answer to a disillusionment. we all deal with it the best we know how. when I found out I wasn't someone's happiness, I needed something to do with myself. to not think about things. it's a hard thing when you've been publicly open about a relationship (because we were both regulars in the forums), it's a hard thing when it's over. neither of us hated the other, it just wasn't meant to be. so what worked for me was to immerse myself in outside activities and be away from here for a while. in between taking dance class 3 days a week and all women softball once a week, I didn't expect to meet anyone. lo and behold, I encountered someone at a little kid birthday party. we didn't officially meet that day because he left early to go to work. but he took the interest to ask about me and our mutual friends introduced us. so my best advice is enjoy life and be open to possibility. you never know what unexpected surprise may encounter your path. |

How realistic do you think that it is that you could meet the type of person that you would really like to meet on the internet? On a site like this? Not many. maybe no more than a dozen in Scotland and they're probably mainly hookers. I hear about guys that go on the internet and shag a different woman every night. I've not got transport though and I'm forty six, so even if they're nymphos that might do an older guy they probably won't from the internet because you could just be a creepy old perv, when the worst they'll get with a young guy is a jerk. |

Although I'll grant you that they would be more likely to do an older guy if you have a profile that says that you're a millionaire.

I think its very likely you can meet someone,
Off course we all have to have several attempts at eyeballs, coffee's and blind dates before we come across someone cute enough to grab your attention or someone who checkmarks all your checkboxes.... I'm 50 and not a millionaire either, So its just a case of finding that mutually special someone who makes your heart skip a beat or makes you think.... "Gosh this woman is so awesome - if she chooses me as I choose her then I will die happy" hahaha Good Luck and don't give up. |

Tawt, I knew you were somewhere "across the pond," but didn't know until now that you're in Scotland. If the second part of your name refers to a certain Fender product, maybe you could get a job with Sir "Rod the Mod." (Probably nobody's called him that since '67 or so.)
I just read on Wikipedia that "Stewart is known for his liaisons with women and has had eight children, by five different mothers." Rod might be living in L.A. or someplace now, though. Apparently he had to relearn how to sing after an operation for thyroid cancer, but I'll bet he's still rockin'. (In more than one way.) Hang in there. |

How realistic do you think that it is that you could meet the type of person that you would really like to meet on the internet? I've found that the possibility of meeting someone you really want to meet is higher with the internet.. the probability of it ever happening is another matter altogether.. I found that those I'm usually interested in most (and those most interested in me) live half way around the world.. which simply makes meeting for that much more difficult.. so instead of searching for "THE ONE".. I just come on here to hang out.. put in my 2 cents (even when it's not wanted ) and join in conversations when the mood takes me.. as for deactivating.. I've been on this site for about a decade now.. WOW really?? it just hit me but I personally don't deactivate.. I just go on hiatus when I get too busy to pop by.. then I come in.. kill threads.. then ride off into the sunset, leaving everyone scratching their heads! |

I'm pretty sure I'm not really real.

How realistic do you think that it is that you could meet the type of person that you would really like to meet on the internet? Since I'm not interested in meeting anyone my thoughts should probably be taken with a grain of salt. However, based on my many experiences meeting people via the internet I'd say it is not at all realistic. |

i'd have to agree with this... he lists himself as 6'+ tall and look at him... barely tall enough to get above the weeds... |

In my personal experience I have met my wife to be online. Things were just fine for 5 yrs until we had a child. After that it's all went south.
