Hi.

I've been a member for about 3 years or so & I just don't seem to be able to meet Ladies close to or around my age (57) who are from my home city (Red Deer, Alberta). I'm not going to give up trying but it does get frustrating at times.

That's the spirit, shadowfire62.

May I ask why you say that you've been here about 3 years when right under your profile pic it says you joined 12/27/14? I guess you didn't know that, did you?

anyway, what have you been doing for the past 5 years? Are you using the Search option? sending messages to the ladies you are interested in? Have you considered widening your search?

Good luck in your search

Seven posts in five years??? Four of them whining about something and the other three I'm guessing deleted for some reason or other. And you can't understand why you can't find a 57 year old lady in Alberta who wants to get to know you???

Nothing gets by you Rosie..

Nothing that I could remember, Dino

Proper order too.. my heroine..

From your picture you appear to be in law enforcement? Maybe women aren’t
sure if you want to date them or arrest them.

cast a bigger net
uhm walk around with a sing on it saying free singles mingle2.com so more in your area will join
<shrug>

and Bastet beat me to that one ... change your profile pic , a little less cop (Security Gaurd)and more human (no offence)

and Mo all ready covered , 7 text in 5 years ....

best wishes on your hunt
keep ya head up
what ya looken for might be around the next bend

This isn't the Special Olympics.
Not everyone gets a trophy.


I'd wish you luck.
But, I suspect, you'll be back real soon,
whining about the same old thing.


You're gonna have to grow a pair, and step
off the proverbial porch. That is, if you ever
expect to find anyone.

Or,
You can stay home and whine.




Choice is yours.

But what he is looking for is just what so many women seem to desire!! Could they not have read his profile or don't they want what they say they want??

shadow i just picked one of the red deer post codes and added your age filter.
at 50 miles i got 76 profiles all online over a month ago. when i stretched it to 100 miles i got 3 online in less than a week, out of 900 plus.

i think if you want to meet local ladies near you, venturing out into real life near you will be more useful

Ok people , , ,can u all give me any idea why I,m having so much trouble actually communicating with lady somewhat close to my age , , ,I,m 61 , ,I,m messaging lady's from 49 to 65 , ,been on this site about 3 months or so , ,an I,'ve messaged over 200 different lady's , , most all from OR , , where I,'ll soon be moving to , , , only 1 has actually answered , ,, 2 others messaged me , , an I answered both , , ,but our life styles AR so different , , the one that did message me back , , seem to have promis , we were getting along fine , , ,lol , ,untill I asked how many kids she had , an their flavors ??? She answered back 2 men , ,then she said , , ,flavors ????? I guess Vanilla , ,then she say , ,That's an odd question to ask !!! An before I could message her back to explain , ,all I ment by flavors was , ,are they boys or girls , , ,SHE BLOCKED ME !!! If it wasn't for bad luck , , ,I,m wouldn't be having any luck at all , , ,so , my question to u lady's is , , ,an I,m sure some men will weigh in also , , ,but I,m mainly interested in hearing what the lady's have to say , , ,why are so few lady's responding to my messages , ,an pretty much what I,m saying in my messages is , ,ur pretty , we seem to have so things in common ,I,d like to talk more about it with u , , , , I have put lots of info , in my profile along with quite a few current pics , , ,so , ,what the heck am I doing wronge ??????

Yeah...might do both.

People who are in Oregon are very familiar with the area around LaPine and not too many

Hit the wrong button...sorry. Not completely familiar with the format of the forums.

Anyway...people who live in Oregon are familiar with the area around LaPine and not too many want to live there. That could be part of your problem. I see that we share some interests, but I don't want to spend time in that area. I happen to like the Willamette Valley. Not so dry and dusty.

I know the drill, what you're saying isn't unusual. Once you hit about, ohh, three, four years down the road with no worthwhile responses, you'll come to the conclusion that it's all a bad deal, and push onto better, more rewarding ventures.

One suggestion though, message like you're talking to someone in real life. It's a bit more to do, you just might be rewarded for doing so.

Well Mary , , ,I hope ur wrong about it being the area , ,lots of people have good things to say about Bend , ,I,m only 30 miles SW of there , ,an I didn't c one thing that we had in common , , I don't have cats , don't do flowers or quilts , , ,so what were U referring too ?

chet i believe i did this in one of your threads and gave this same answer...

at 50 miles from lapine zip code of 113 matches only 2 online in the last month
