I've been dating for 3 years online and it seems that everyone says they are looking for "love", but when you contact someone there is no communication. It is me asking all the questions. Should the man be the one asking all the questions. Then, I find that people do not tell the truth about what they look like before you meet. I find that everyone has so much candy(possible matches) to choose from that they are only sampling a piece of each candy really quick and not getting to know each other. It seems even if I find the right woman, that there is cheating going on every where, arguments with your mate, etc...Should I stay single or keep looking for love?

Give me a reason to keep looking for love!

I know what you mean and I have experienced that too. But keep your heart open to the possibilities. You never know when someone wonderful will cross your path.

true dat most p'ple here lie about almost everything they say about themselves,but still there r those dat r honest with themselves. don't give up dia u'll find one.

You should find this reason within not without.


Then she's not the right woman. If this happens a lot, you may want to reconsider the type of woman you're going for.


Maybe stop asking questions and start a conversation?
I don't understand why men have to ask question upon question and never tell anything about themselves. Have you nothing to say? (Then don't contact anyone till you do).
How is your day? How was your night? What are you going to do today? What are your plans for the weekend?
Tell me something about YOU instead of interrogating me with meaningless question!


Go for profiles with pictures, ask pictures and maybe Skype a couple of times before meeting so you see the person is for real.


Entirely up to you, no one can answer that question for you.
Just make sure you have a life, don't spend all your time looking for a partner.

never give up keep looking dont be afraid to ask plenty of questions the nice way in conversion there is someone for everyone probally more than one maybe u have been looking in the wrong place u need to be happy and content in yourself before u can really find some that siuts u live for today learn from the past but dont wait for tomorrow it might never come

to cutis67,,,,,,,,get the audio book ''getting the love you want'' by Harville Hendrix,,,,,,have you ever felt there was secret language spoken all around you,,,,would you believe it if you hear it.??..we don't know what we don't know...you have all the answers to your questions inside you..we can not do anything about anyone but ourselves,,,,,,,first you have to get out of your comfort zone and see your part.....then it requires a commitment to yourself to get this stuff handled. david de angelo has some great self help video's on the internet at his web page,,, there are previews on u-tube.............good luck

I think your issue is simply a product of ...most people don't have time to have long heartfelt conversations with EVERYONE who messages them regularly...especially if they are already involved in deeper conversations with a few people before they began messaging new people.

The whole point of the forums is to give people
a tool, to get to know others.

To find compatible prospects.
Some in-depth conversations can come from that.

Look before you leap :-)

It's up to you. If you gave yourself such an ultimatum, would you be able to stick to it? Why give up now in particular? You don't have to answer me. Just something to think about. I can understand how you may think dating was easier in the eighties or nineties. I met my childhood sweetheart at school, which is why I have a hard time thinking there are other ways to meet. I've only dated very few men after that. Sometimes I cringe that a younger guy may think I'm that experienced in dating, just because I'm older than them, but not all of us older women ARE very experienced in the bedroom department. Good luck whatever you decide.

RE Sparky excellent reference with HH the other guy more of a dentist gone ego trip pontificating all over...

I agree with her!!!

Either choice you make, you're still going to be single (until you find someONE to marry). Yes, there are a lot of flakes, liars, dishonest people in this world. But, there are also genuine, honest ones too.

I want to thank everyone for there replies so far!
Doug

never give up , love until the last heart beat !

LOVE will find a way....may be a Pain in the A** at times, but how can you shut your HEART to LOVE???

You have to keep going if you want to find that one lady. I thought I did find my true once in a lifetime lady. We got married and after 2 years she wanted to party with other guys. We separated and I am right back where I started from and still looking. I am 46 and I can tell you it is not easy and you may have to go through a lot before the right one comes along.

Just hang in there and keep trying. Eventually you will find her.
