To answer some questions, I do not have any problem getting asked out by quality men. I just don't find myself giving people a shot, nor accepting dates from very easily.



And happy on your own....... hmmm....

Time to start stocking up on cats?;)

I've tried Match.com, and had 3 successful dates. Successful in that they didn't totally suck, but there was never a 2nd date, which was fine. Never 'clicked' with any of them, but they were fun.

Match.com is getting pretty close to E-harmony as far as its interviewing questions, which it didn't have years ago. At E-harmony I got a lot of replies, but didn't pursue because life was pretty complicated at the time. My only discrepancy w/E-harmony is that they forbid any other types of relationships than hetero. (What can I say, I'm an open-minded liberal.)

Go for it, but remember your safety rules.

I didn't get porno spam before I went on Match.com. After that I was so inundated with it that I had to dump that e-mail addy and get a new one. Other than that, the whole experience on match was not what I paid for. Too many losers , fakers and porno spammers. On line dating sux.:|

Ok, so I signed up and wrote a profile. I have no pictures up, yet. I have not looked on there very much for men who interest me, yet. I did notice someone who seems a bit exceptional. I had placed him in my favorites, but I didn't realize that he might be able see my profile right now.

I already have a WINK from him. He doesn't know what I look like, so that is actually a little flattering. Well, unless he WINKS at everyone. This will be interesting. :D

Funny you should ask.

I had lunch with a lady today that I met on Match dot com. Her listed "age" was 54. First confession outa the box was that she was, in fact, 61. :o

Women tend to put up photos of themselves that are reeeely old and they flat out fib about their age if they're over 39.

I'm only 55, but the 61 year old isn't too bad looking anyway. Prospects for a second date.

And this is why I think this is worth a shot for you, Rosa. Frankly, you're a gorgeous women. And guys tend to hone in on that. if you are anything like a few other beautiful women I have known, after a certain time it gets irritating to them.

Perhaps it's why my wife is with me. She seemed to like I that I wanted to get to know her from the inside out instead of the outside in. As she said, "The other guys seemed to want sex and nothing else."

You've got little to lose in trying it, Rosa. I say, damn the torpedos, and go for it full speed. :)
And my other advizce - don't let them know what you look like! let it be a pleasant surprise for a lucky guy who may get the chance to meet you in person.


My wife is hotter than your wife.

You make very good points about not showing my picture. I've already submitted some pictures, which are awaiting approval. They are the same ones that I am using for my breast cancer walk profile. However, I am already excited that this smart, interesting, gorgeous man told me that he liked what I had written without him knowing what I look like. :$

I am thinking of perhaps taking back the pics that I've submitted and not posting anything at all in that space. (Or, perhaps just using a picture of myself that is not very revealing.) I would rather that they just see what I look like in person, after we have established that they like my personality and vice versa. I am looking at people's profiles based on what they have written, more than anything.

Then again, I don't want someone to overlook reading my profile because I didn't include my picture.

Online dating is a good way to stir up action (action, as in, opportunity.) From what I've gathered, you've got tiers of internet dating from the lowest rung say, in Pennsylvania, it's PASingles.com to Yahoo Personals, to Match.com, Eharmony.com to PerfectMatch.com. There's even Mate1 or Alt1 for the kind of people who like to play, so I hear. Anyway, the higher the cost the less the riff-raff (although, not necessarily.) If you want to meet someone successful, indicate that with your preference in income or education. Most importantly, try not to put any emotional interest in any wink or email. When one yearns to find someone, they often "project" what they want onto someone they don't know or have never seen and start feeling something which is self-conjured. Will the defendant please rise! I plead guilty your honor.
I keep my distance in that respect now. Anyway, play it like you've yet to see the one for you ... but when you post your picture, that will draw them out.
Oh, and keep your emotional distance too, it helps to be lucid.

You're always the starter in your own life!

Well, I don't "play" games. If I have some interest in someone, which actually almost NEVER happens, I'll let that person know. If not, then I'll let them know, also. I'm quite the skeptic about people "falling in love" this way.

I am also certainly not desperate, nor "yearning" for anyone on there. Yet, I have to admit that I am not an easy person to get close to romantically because I don't really let that happen very easily. I tend to brush away and turn down most men more than I probably should. That's probably not a good thing. This may be a way for me to loosen up and go meet some interesting men.

To me, that would make me not want to go on a second date with someone. I'd be thinking that if they would lie about something as silly as their age, what else would they lie about?
