My Name is Rick and I need some help I have been trying to do this online thing in the hopes of meeting that someone special and have had some issues I have not met anyone on this site yet but I have met a couple locally on craigslist we went through all the preliminaries of chatting online and talking on the phone ect. It seemed with both things were going very well. I took the first one out to lunch and we hit it off but she had a lot going on in her life and I was not interested in that. took the second one out to lunch and was told later that night that there was no connection I can also understand that. but the thing I can't understand is both women talked the whole time about how bad they were treated by their ex's and I pretty much just sat back and listened to it all. I can't figure out for the life of me why these are the types I keep attracting. I am not mad about this just frustrated and can't figure out why. I have a great job and a college degree and just want to meet someone who is sincere to fill the gap that I think is missing in my life. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me

Could you play us a song Rick?

rick, your not the only one that is having these issue..

Actually I could if you could upload music to this site I have been playing guitar since I was 8 and have a couple of really good cd's these last 2 situations have given me a lot of thoughts for a couple of new songs but would have to have a parental discretion sticker on them

ok, from what I have heard you are very lucky with your craigslist experiences...I have no experience with CL, I have just heard some crazy things...


there is a lot to be said of getting into the forums of a social networking site, IMO, anyway...

there are many people who post in the forums and even if they are not looking for a partner themselves, they may know someone who is...

and after you post for a while, people get to know a little bit about you...it helps with the networking...

Good Luck!!

i have a mp3 that a old bf made for me.. he died almost 3yrs ago and every so often i play it just to hear his voice.... the week he died i sware i played that mp3 50times

I just want to meet someone who is sincere I know that most of us including me have been through some bad relationships I am one though that has been able to put them behind me and let go and the only time I will talk about them is if I am asked.

trying to understand women is like trying to understand darkmatter in space...clueless,just give them your full attention and throw in some affection,not infection.then you'll be okay

Rick nothing in life comes quickly just take your time. When you meet those that all they talk about is their ex's leave them be they have too many issues.

Just take your time things will finally work out for you.

you can't help how others feel. wait for someone that can appreciate you and what you have to offer. there is nothing wrong with their choice...because it's their choice. keep looking for the one that will be into you. it takes time and a lot of weeding sometimes

Real women who are not desperate don't post ads on Craigslist

OK...I know there are scammers on CL just like any other site...but those posting on CL aren't necessarily desperate any more than people posting on Mingle or any other site

just give it some time and eventually you`ll hit the jackpot

I think lately I really miss someone to share things with I moved here for my job of a lifetime and have no family close at all I have been single for about 6 years now I just graduated from college 2 years ago and did not get into a relationship while I was going to school because I did not think it would be fair to her because of the time I had to dedicate to a full time job and school it is not an easy thing doing both at 34 years old and not graduating till you are 38

Rick...learn to enjoy being with you...then it gets easier. get out and do things

Yellowrose10 I do that at times but I gotta be honest it gets a little old doing things by yourself all the time I know I will meet that special someone someday it just seems sometimes that time is running out

doll...I'm older than you are lol. and yes...I felt the way you have and at times I still do. but it does get easier once you learn to enjoy being with yourself. I keep myself entertained A LOT lately. in a perfect world...I would have the love of my life...but alas....it's not a perfect world. chat on here often when you are bored. it actually helps

ok I will work keeps my mind going a million miles an hour and I think that this will help me to let it unwind

take control of yourself hon. it's kinda like reprogramming your mind
