Have you picked up some really good ideas from others here, regarding about dating and what you might be doing wrong?

Did any members or posts here made you change your mind or shaped your opinion a littlebit?

Actually I have learned things about myself from these threads. I have also learned more about what a potential partner needs to be.

Yep...

If after months of nearly daily e-mails the other person declines the opportunity to meet or even talk via video cam or phone, there is a very important piece of the puzzle that you are missing.

i have learned from young and older.. both sexes and yes i have come on here and asked something or read something and changed my mind on things...

everyday, here and in public I lear new things everyday.....even through the simplest observstions....

I've learned less about dating than other subjects. I have learned and continue to learn here.

Always something new to learn...

I learned you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
And You can't fix stupid.

I have learned that sometimes people are just what you thought they were.

I have only been hear a short time and yes I have learned thing off of other people some what they like and what they don’t like. Their is a very diverse crowd on this site. But still learning

The main thing I've learned is that the kind of person I'm looking for does not use dating sites.

I have learned that everyone is imilar, whther it is my tiny town, or the whole world. Most men are still mostly visual creatures while most women are more influenced by the intrinsic and nuanced portions of life.

When I came to this site, I really didn't know what to expect from it. Didn't know what to make of meeting people online. But what I discovered is that places like Mingle really do offer you the opportunity to meet people for a variety of reasons. You make friends, you meet someone that you might be into, meet, and maybe it does (or doesn't) work out. Funny thing is, I have made some kick azz friends here, and I have also talked to women that (if I saw them in person for the first time) I might not have approached. The great thing about this is that because this is the net, and it is safe to talk to people, you can really build some great friendships. And, from these friendships, you learn about alot of different perspectives.

I've learned a vast amount more than I have used.

There's nothing sweeter than someone calling you out on your bull-asterisk.

I learn and want to learn something from everyone I talk to. That's "par for the course" for me.

so yes, always learning - here and every where

Oh, my opinions, not so much. I listen but I decide without influence on my opinion. and then I am relauctant to change my mind as it takes a lot of information for me to formulate it in the first place.

not really.

"I'd Rather Hurt Than Feel Nothing At All"

I have, but at the same time they are only ideas for me to interpret and analyze in my own situation. I know what I did wrong, I know what I've done wrong, I try...the best that I can...to learn from these mistakes.

Plenty of people have helped me along the way, they helped shape my opinion but didn't necessarily have a hand in its creation...it was there, just needed a push.

I have learned that in order to get the women to at least take a look at your profile, or to respond to a post that you started, Its best to have a picture of what they would refer to as a " Hunk ". for them to see as you are posting in the forums. A picture of you being young, with a great build. And taken while standing in the gym with the weights in the back ground.

When we stop listening and learning from others .. we might as well be dead.

I've learned some folks aren't what they appear to be, while others are exactly what they appear to be.
