How many people have you had legitimate and interesting conversations with here in the messaging system?
My grand total is 3.

4

I'd say in between 5 to 10.

I had so many I loss count. We emailed for a while then I ask if they are Fake and they dissapear.
Some are very intelligent and try to smooth talk an older woman.

I have had a few nice men, real men Not on Forums. They here for date.

We email but they really aren't my type for Relationship. They just happy to talk to a Real lady on here.

Since 2012, not counting the ones I talk to that are chat buddies here, 2.

In the past 6 years only 2 in a dating sense. The women that are close enough to date never sign in. At least I never see them. Usually, all I get are the 20 and 30 something that I know by just looking at them they are a waste of time. And usually always ten or more states away.

Yep...as I have said....I have 2 pages of guys within 50 miles of me whose profile says "Last seen over a month ago" or some such...

There are maybe a handful who have signed in in the past month..and those?
Maybe one is someone I'd have anything in common with...

WOW that is some story!

It's not the quantity, it's the quality

I'm a one-liner I don't do convo's or interesting.

Edited for discussing other members,
it is a privacy thing.

Thank y'all. I don't feel so bad now

I have a bout two pages of meaningful conversation in my mail folder here.
I've actually lost count?
Not all are dating perspectives tho because I also message back and forth with forum active members that contact me.
I use mail filters to screen down the riff-raff which is abundant.
I immediately delete random come-ons from women not within my area or that have profile pics that show a woman too young for her age.
I decline friend requests unless I have read something personally address to me or know them from the forums.
I immediately delete all messages notifying me as being favorited but I do send back nudges sometimes, just to see if I get an actual message but I never do.
When I get an email notification that 14 new people are interested in me, I think, "no, they're not" and delete the email but when I have a notification that says "You Have Mail" I log in and see the mail, which I may or may not respond to.
This is why you might see me here at different times of the day.

I do send out messages when I find a profile that interests me, even if they haven't been seen in over a month. I send messages that consist of things I have common with things they have in their profile but I don't assume anything.
I will not profess my love for someone unless I actually love them.
What I will do is relate to them the parts of their profile that make me interested.
I get responses sometimes, sometimes not.
Its the nature of the beast.
Online dating is not dating, its a tool to help you find someone that you might date.
A hammer that is swung many times but only needs to strike the nail once.

Yep.
As I say...you CAN'T win if you don't play...(metaphorically speaking, that is)

Also...I say I am aware I am not everyone's cup of tea....but, I am *someone's* cup of tea....
(had two...I'm sure there one more out there.

137. However, all but three took place Pre-2009. Do they still count?
