I never pay much attention to what league anyone is in...I'm the same with everyone...figure we will either get along or we won't...if I like a guy I will say hi and see where it goes...although when it comes time to meet friends and family, sometimes things go downhill at that point...but it's still worth taking a chance...

There are plenty of "why are you here" posts. I was posing a question simply because I do not understand the draw... I get the business aspect and why Mingle wants them (revenue... just like any business).

Also, I don't buy "they have the same opportunities." But that was one of the premises of my question- and I think there was good discussion. It's a belief/opinion and I asked to shed light on that. People did=win. I can say that I understand a little better, despite the ensuing drama...

calm.down.

This entire thread, is why I'm still single.

I think I judge the super-good looking men as vacant, unintelligent jocks. They don't interest me at all.

My last boyfriend, I fell in love with over a period of about a year- he was NOT attractive to me when we met, but the more I learned about him, I grew to appreciate him and care for him. All of his so-called flaws (former Rugby player-- his face was literally broken), became endearing stories about his life. He BECAME attractive to me. But only after falling in love with his character.

Too bad his conflict management skills were that of a teenage girl.

I get rather annoyed when a man displays (in any way) that my value to him is physical attraction. Eff that. That's purely subjective and unworthy of praise. I want someone who finds our time together stimulating (and I them), and, that comes over a long period of time. Not a single date.

I think its terribly creepy for men to 'come onto' me.

"Hey Beautiful..."
"Hey Baby..."

You're just a horny stranger. I want none of it.

The questions may help you understand where I'm at with this. Seems like a lot of effort for maybe not very fruitful reward. Also, seems dangerous... or maybe I'm paranoid, although this would be the first time anyone has called me paranoid...

The mentality you have about keeping an open mind and seeking possibilities is ALWAYS a good perspective. I wholeheartedly give you the best of luck.

:-)

Long-term, because it seems like an awfully huge amount of effort to go on what may amount to only one or two dates. Have you met anyone from here yet? How long did you chat before you met? What interested you in wanting to initially talk, and then enough so to meet?

Thanks, but I was being fecetious... (tough crowd). I truly don't feel old, and offending me is one of the most challenging things a person could even attempt. I'm never mad.

Fired up, perhaps... never mad, and certainly never offended.

I believe one thing: no one makes you feel any way. You allow yourself to feel it or not. Never give anyone so much power.

lol am not angry or mad am just being sarcastic maybe u just couldnt get it sorry

Julie, I suppose it really just is a"sign of the times". When I was your age

(Pause-- DID I JUST SAY THAT?!?)

ahem... it USED to be that these type of sites were pretty taboo unless you were older. But then, we had AOL chatrooms... which while not so overt, could be argued to have had the same overall purpose...

Anyways, I appreciate your input ma dear (I guess I'll just own the 'old woman' image)!

Ouch Medo! Was that necessary?

Karma's a b*tch, ya know. Be nice.

I'm not saying you shouldn't be dating. You TOTALLY SHOULD! Have a blast with it!! But... I guess I associate dating sites with people looking for a long-term, serious relationship in situations where it may not be convenient/ideal.

So, maybe I'm wrong, but you being so quick-to-temper isn't really going to help your cause, is it?

Well thank you for clarifying.

One thing you can learn (medo05), is that you will change a lot between now, and say, 30.

Julie, If the term "kid" bothers you, you're really focusing too much on semantics. Physiologically speaking, parts of your brain (important parts at that) are still not completely developed yet.

This is a topic for discussion that I'm sort of boggled by, no need for offense.

believe me MOMMY i won't stay single for 30's and start to look for my partner on a dating site
if t happens then it clearly proves that i had no life but now is the age for dating sites cuz am planning to marry at 22-25, i dont want to end my life living alone or having an old wife and look like a grandpa to ma kids instead of a young energetic father
