Topic: is there something wrong? | |
---|---|
I have met a couple guys that have seemed nice on this site. After talking a while on here, I give them my number and we have great conversations on the phone. After a couple telephone conversations and planning some dates, I never hear from them again. Is there something wrong with me or with them? Thank you for listening:)

You will never understand men...just like we never understand women.....I would not let it get you down |

take it from an old internet pro...this thing we call the "internet"..is 100% of how you represent yourself....if you make it to what i call phase 2 which is about 80%..never will happen and 10%..will call you...if you take that 10% and develop a "telephone relationship"..with the other person...all it takes is one negative thing out of your mouth to kill that relationship...then u r down to that 1% of actually meeting the person who found you on this electronic thing..and about 1/2 % of those will be even compatable..so good luck girl...and have fun...remember numbers are the only way to find a true person that is compatable...

Yeah, I've run into this a few times -- it seems that there are some people who are pretty functional as long as the interaction is kept to the "no-meeting-in-person" level -- but they develop a sort of "stage fright" when it's time to take that next step.
I figure, if you're actually trying to meet someone in person, you're better off identifying and eliminating the "stage frighters" from your pool of hopefuls -- they're never going to develop into anything. They might be fine as long distance friends (some people just seem to be born for that role, and how's THAT for a left-handed compliment?), but anything beyond that is a fantasy. |

Well I just looked at your profile (don't think I'm some dirty old man) and I see nothing worng at all. It may be the guys your age, plus it being California (land of fruits flakes and nuts..no I am NOT from here myself), but there does not appear to be anything "wrong" wth you.
If you were 10 years older, then I would definitely take you out to get to know you better. :) It's just got to be the guy. Best of luck to you! |

After a couple telephone conversations and planning some dates, I never hear from them again. Is there something wrong with me or with them? Thank you for listening:) it's them! I had a similar experience from a guy on here not to long ago, EXCEPT we went out / got together three times, I met his son, he met my son, he told me all kinds of stuff about his life, etc..and now for liek the last two weeks I have MAYBE gotten a total of 5 text messages from him and they are cold compared to the ones he had been sending...So I don't think it is us, I think it might just be (at least some of the guys) the guys... rkb |

Dreamer-
No, there is nothing wrong with you. You are an articulate lady, so I would think you are a good communicator. The problem is with those guys, who don't know how to communicate - immaturity. Therefore, you would not want to be in any sort of relationship with them anyhow. |

I never saw it that way. I didn't know that so many people were afraid of meeting in person. Thank you all for your advice .

Nothing wrong with you, they are the ones who missed out on a great time with you. Whe I meet some one from online, for the frist time I always meet in a public place, and always have my cell phone on me, and my lids know where I am, who i'm with, and his number 2. I've had alot of fun, make some good friends, but nothing wrong with being safe.

THank you pennyg281. It is always a good idea to be safe. I just don't like how they plan all these dates and then I never hear from them again:(

you think there's something wrong with you? seriously, at least you talk to people and plan dates, thats farther then i've been with a girl in 7 years. things like that happen all the time, you'll just stress yourself out worrying about it.
