I've been on for a number of years (hangs head in shame..) but have never met one person I would even consider marrying. Hmmmmmm...Me? Or....

I am with you 100% there, so don't feel It's you.
Most are just out to use and mass date as many as they can. As you say, they rarely even read the profile lol.


Dont laugh too hard at me ( lol I know you will ) but I have started to see It like the pokies, after all my losses the big one must be about to come In.

Hmmm of course, we all know the house Is then lost thinking that way lmao

Good luck with It , but seriously you may have better luck here finding " the one ".

You side with her because shes female?
This is the person opening threads telling trinity she wants to marry him.
She is a player nothing more out for whatever she can get to use and abuse however she likes.
Believe it or not there is many women these days who are just players who tell men they want something genuine.
Yet have 8 different guys at once telling them that having drunken unprotected sex with all of them.
This one im sure is one of those who gives dating sites a bad name and is the female version of the ones you are talking of.

just try explaining chemtrails to someone asleep, let alone a woman. and I am the kook for thinking we live in a matrix. WTF. those pricks were spaying today

EXACTLY!!! I do not want to spend that time explaining....when we could be doing something else. Don't take the fucking wrong pill!!!!!!!!!
 Quoting: anniesnow


Yes - it's best to meet someone of the same mind set at the out set.

Thing is, I've known of tooo many instances where someone has tried to bring a love interest up to speed on 'stuff'- only to have said love interest just go with it for a short time and then eventually revert to 'sheeple' (for lack of better term) later.

Hey - it happened to me. Weird really - he said he believed like I did and then a few days later said he never did believe like me.

That's because you already have your honey. Me too.

But I guess it couldn't be any worse than meeting a guy in the grocery store or at work. At least you'd have some things in common.

Seriously if I found myself single...I would be clueless as to where to meet men.

I once worked for a very wealthy guy who married his jdate.com hook up. They met on her third blind date, and his first, although I think the deal was sealed the second she saw his wallet.

Re: Do Dating Sites Ever Work?
I've been on a few dating sites for awhile and I've been very specific in my profile,but out of the last 100 responses I've gotten,only ONE knew what 'TEOTWAWKI' means!They don't even read my profile!They just look at the freaking picture!
Sheesh....
Anyone else have this problem? I really WANT a relationship but I want a man who can at least READ.





How old are you?

But... More importantly... What do you look like?

Ha Ha...

Very pretty,thus the responses w/out reading the profile. 5'5, 110# ,very long dark brown hair,long skirts and boots. No one ever guesses my age w/in 10 or more years.
 Quoting: anniesnow



Guess what? It doesn't matter. I've been trying to meet somebody who liked me for my personality cuz guys hit on me all the time, so I didn't put up a picture and don't send one until we've talked for awhile first.

I still get tons of responses and few read the profile. I say things like must be reasonably fit for your age - they aren't even close to that. I'm fit, I don't want some porky guy. They write anyways.

I say the higher your IQ the more we'll have to talk about. Most of them who write to me are such idiots I don't know how they managed to log on.

(If a fat moron is reading this and offended - sorry - just saying what I would like).

Really they want anything WITH A VAGINA.

I have a 3 month rule. That's extremely useful for weeding out the ones slick enough to make it past the fat and stupid tests who still aren't all they say.

Tell them flat out about your 3 month rule and watch the users run. It works!

I would say the problem is NOT the dating sites ... it is YOU.

What you want probably does NOT exist in the REAL WORLD, so of course you aren't going to find anyone.

"LAST 100 responses ..."

Sheesh ...

All the dating sites can do is provide an "introduction" forum, but if your standards are that only 1 in 100,000 men can meet your "criteria" they most likely are NOT going to work! You need to either look elsewhere, to a way to meet men where your basic criteria are already pre-screened in (example - MUST be skier!? then ONLY look at ski club members, ski resorts, ski shops etc., get the drift?)

I concur with the person who said that if they were a man they would be thrilled to have had 100 TOTAL responses, not just "the LAST 100 responses".

IF you reallly do want a serious relationship then YOU are going to have to look within yourself as to the 5 things that are really important, versus a mile long "wish list".
