| juggler7 Member 13 Posts 8/10 | Hi, Just want to state a few observations I made about online dating. I have been on various websites for around 6 months now. I consider myself attractive, and have received quite a few 'winks', which is basically when a member shows interest in you. So I follow up these winks with a nice e-mail reply, I read your profile you seem interesting etc, but half the time they never even reply! I never understand winking and then not replying. Also I know they have read my e-mails, because I have that function. Also a lot of these women seem to be online just for their ego, and have little interest in dating. It's like they just collect winks and enjoy all the attention they get. And another suprising thing is just how much money these women supposedly earn..they are all in the £50-75k a year margin..I am no economist but that seems to be an awful lot of rich women on dating sites...I call bullshit Also a lot of women I talk to, disappear for months (I assume dating other people), and then contact me out of the blue..It is always so obvious that they broke up with someone...no contact and suddenly they pop-up ready to chat again. And no one is that fucking busy. The whole thing is just really shallow, and the system should work as it brings together people who want the same thing, but just fucking doesn't....and I feel so lonely it sucks..people are like discover yourself, but I have, I enjoy my work, know who I am and just want someone to share some experiences with.

But I have several friends who did the internet dating thing after they got divorced. A few of them said it was the most efficient way to meet women - especially if you have a demanding career and you have hobbies that don't involve meeting a lot of people of the opposite sex. |

But I was honest with her and was a bit surprised she even wanted to meet me. We talked on the phone for weeks before meeting. My ad was beyond simple, all I was looking for was a girl who wanted to go for a motorcycle ride and had her own helmet. She didn't have a helmet, but answered my ad anyways. I am still seeing her. Another ad I posted was beyond crazy and I got serious responses from a lot of serious women. I specified that you must be a brunette, be a libra, like to travel, dine out, try new things, and so forth. To make a long story short on that one, I got a ton of Libra's answering my ad even though they weren't brunettes. I went out with a few of them and had a fine time. I was more curious about why they answered my ad. I was fairly specific in the whole ad and the only requirement they met were that they were a Libra. Online dating is crazy. |
| juggler7 Member 13 Posts 8/10 | I have a date 2moro, to be honest I don't find the girl too attractive, although she is far from ugly..I just wanna go and have a drink with someone, and I am not expecting anything else..I think that is a good attitude to have The trouble is, sometimes you end up really liking someone, and then it is hard to continue being so casual |

| lunacyagain Member Somewhere between Heaven & Hell 33 Posts 3/06 | Seems like the best way is just to flow with it, meet thru friends, go to parties, say hello to the cute girl in the store... The internet just looses so much in the translation. Expressions, body language even tone are huge factors when you meet someone new. Just my 2 cents, best of luck! |

| juggler7 Member 13 Posts 8/10 | I don't suck..I get plenty of attention online..I just don't understand the concept of winking at a guy, and then just fucking off.. If a woman winks at me, I sent a simple email along the lines of, I read your profile, you seem interesting..but then no reply..around half I would say just dont make sense Edited by - juggler7 on 8/30/2010 12:43:20 PM |
| RandomPrecision Senior Member Enjoy! 8175 Posts 3/06 | So OK. I'll give it my best guess. Maybe they're just fucking with you. I don't know. People can be fickle. My post wasn't a tip. If you want a real tip, here's one. Don't bother with trying to find someone online. You might actually have some luck if you keep working at it long enough but women have such an easy time finding dates that there's got to be a reason any female is looking online for men. And that usually doesn't mean something good. If you want my advice, drop the online thing and stick with real world people. Going online seems to me to be just adding complexity to an already complicated game. |
