flowerforyou I am of this mind set: With all the people in the world today, one has to spend time mingling in order to find that one who fits. I am in no rush either online or in person. If all that happens is friendship, one can never have enough friends but if one rushes and get all mixed up in the wrong relationship it get harder to recoup each time. jmo good luckbigsmile

if you're constantly expecting, you point yourself in the position to be constantly dissapointed right?

so chillax, enjoy and like twitch said 'whatever happens, happens.'

What I want is a house, a wife, kids, and a dog. What I expect is a house, a wife, kids, and a dog.

What I expect from this site is nothing more than I've already got from it, which is just something to pass time when I'm bored. although I am open to something more, I just don't expect to find it.

I've made some nice friends; like the games,etc. If the opportunity arises where I have the chance to meet someone and there's chemistry I would like to pursue it. My primary reason for joining wasn't to find a mate; I was very curious; I never did this before.

I've known several people who met their husbands or wives through internet dating, and I know others who haven't. I figure the odds are just as good here as some other methods. So many of us are time-starved in this day and age, this is one method to reach out and connect with others. There are advantages and disadvantages. Chemistry can not be determined until you actually meet someone, even if you do hit it off online, but if the person is honest, you may get to know more about them up front. In the real world, you may sense the chemistry right away, but approach entering the relationship differently...

I've become friends with alot of men on here; unfortunately they live quite a distance from me -- at this point in my life a long distance relationship would be a strain on both us -- but who knows anything can happen and it usually does when you least expect it.

I hate to say this but I'm here due to boredom. If I find someone worth getting to know and it leads to more, that's great but I do not expect that to happen.

I'm definitely NOT here for cyber-webcam-bogus-voodoo-sex stuff -- the whole concept makes no sense to me. Go rent a movie or take a bath or something.

When I first signed up, I was hoping I could meet someone near me who would want to hang out and talk and get to be friends and see how that went, and then go from there. Not exactly expecting a relationship (the two attempts from last year were still smarting), but open to the possibility.

Now that I can see it's clearly not going to happen that way, I still like talking to my friends here and getting to know more about everybody.

I've gotten used to the idea that JSH will never be a "dating site" for me -- "dating" requires geographical proximity AND someone within that geographical proximity who will actually talk to you! -- but it's still fun, and I still think the people here are better than the ones on the other sites....

hi Joyce.

Haven't got any expectations other than to be open to a long term relationship if it comes to pass. JSH is a fun place to chat and there are many colorful people in the forums.

LDRs and LTRs seem to me to be a rather difficult combo.

Being older and swimming in a shrinking pond is a patient endeavor to say the least.

Flirting can be fun, if it's understood as humorous banter on the forums. I think serious flirting is best kept out of view.

Never been in a LDR and don't seek that on JSH. Though friendships are beginning to take shape that I would otherwise not have been open to in the past.

A place to share ideas, to share humour, to share stories, a place of community, a global community, even when like siblings, there are squabbles, I still care for everyone here.

I enjoy the sense of feeling a part of something bigger, than my immediate family.


Dating? No.

Cyber webcam whoo hoo? No.

Sharing stories? Yes please.
