I never said they shouldn't, nor did anyone else I think?

say men are Too Visual.

I have never been on any dating said, including this one.
Well, at least I don't consider it a dating site, just a forum with a lot of advertising space for escorts.

Understood :)

Same here, to me it's a forum and also the reason I come here :)
As for the ads, install AdBlock and they're gone.
Allow them on the Mail page otherwise you can't get to your PMs. Same for your account page if you wish to change something there.

Yes a lot of people just seem To go on what a person looks like .
Like they don’t seem to understand that people have personalities too, and that there is way more to a person than what they look like
I just find that so shallow and so off putting .
They base everything off how one looks without seeming to realise that you still have to have a connection . But they don’t seem to even want to get to know anything you , or their conversations just seem to be about them and want they want and don’t get why you don’t want anything from them or to Pursue anything
I am attracted to people that I click with and get along with , that’s what attracts me to them is that kind of connection when things between you both just flow so easily .
I met and fell in love with my husband without ever seeing what he looked like first , ( we spoke on the phone for long amounts of time over a period of Time) and we just connected so well, and it’s those kind of connections that attract me to a person, not someone that is so shallow .

What a good dating site

Well dis is my first one

I've been on several. We all admit it isn't what it's cracked up to be. I've done the pay sites. And no, it wasn't worth it. Reminded me of ordering fast food and only getting the wrapping paper. Sure, they always say you'll find dates. Because if you do, you'll continue to shell out the cash to them. (They hope)

From my observations, if you can manage to make new social contacts in the real world, you can manage to obtain dates. I could, when there were organized singles dances. One could go, and be surrounded with possible dates. Women would get brave enough to accept a dance invitation, however short, and at least some ice would be broken. From that, it was up to the two that met to continue on if they felt some draw towards one another.

I built contacts from that. Some women would be regulars, it could build over a period of time. Unfortunately, those went the way of the doe doe bird when online came on the scene. (At least in my area)

When online came about, I found out how short my conversation skills were. I am not up on the latest fads, or social directions others follow. That's not me. Yeah, I'm in a rut. But I like my rut. It works for me. It's predictable. I can have challenges that I can successfully do. But, it looks boring to most all women. Oh well.

In real life men are supposed to be the initiators, but... men won't unless they've received a sign, however small, from the woman that she's interested in him approaching. Men have fragile egos, more so even than women, and don't fancy rejection.
Only TEN percent of men are confident enough to approach a woman regardless of her having given a sign.
A sign can be eye-contact, and this has to be repeated at least 3x and held for a bit, a smile, or any other gesture that makes a man feel confident enough to make his first move.
So in that sense it is MUCH tougher on women. Try holding eye-contact with someone you fancy for 10 secs and do that 3x on end. The 10 secs seem like 10 hours.

Online it should be easier for men as it's less personal when you get rejected then. No one will see your nerves or whatever it is you'd experience in real life.

It's taken several years.
But, I think I finally have everyone talked out of
wanting a relationship with me.


Sweet, blessed solitude.

Everyone needs someone, don't you know?

Yea I need someone who I can love till the end of time no games I’m for real

Tons. Mostly sites that weren't "really" all that much about dating.

To me the online dating site/app environment since the 90's has gone through the same transition as Route 66, or the family vacation.

Where before it was fun, adventurous, took you to new places, all with their own local flavor or niche, tourist centric, friendly, local diner type places.

But now it's become more like the only places to stop are those with a WalMart, McDonalds, Burger King, Subway, or Taco Bell.



Used to be.
Except with the old internet you'd have to type 10 miles uphill through the snow.
I'm finding I'm having much more fun and success meeting people offline than on, now.

what have you been clicking on Luca !!!! My ads are mostly tourism .... today it is Nz glacier exploration

By the Beach near the Sea . Mingle2 is a Nice Place to Be !

I'm not relationship material.

Ask around. I have references.

My first time, scared of talking to strangers online.
But then i'm not getting any younger and i wanted to try meeting some people or be friends with them.
Hope i'll meet good ones though.

I refer mainly on messages I receive

There is someone out there for all of us

I am only on this one. I have tried local, but I only find weirdos on them. I have one I met who still checks out my profile every other day. Unfortunately he is on here too. 'Stalker much'?
