I am a 20 year old man who will be 21 in January and I am on a few dating sites and the only ones I am getting flirts from is other guys, normally if I did not do anything on the site I would not mind but I have sent message after message to women anywhere from less than a mile to 100 miles away, and after all of the messages I have sent I have gotten back about 5 "friend" messages, meaning they are not interested in me but are nice enough not to say it to my face, also I see that in the sent messages some just read my message and that really just bugs me, not as much as the ones who read and delete, but still I am annoyed about it, I just want to know simply this why doesn't really anyone be honest on here? I ask how they are and how was their day and I in all my profiles I say that I am over loving, kind, and caring, and yet no one who wants that wants to even talk to me so please someone tell me what is wrong here?

hey there. I feel your pain. I get all kinds of people adding me as friends, looking at my profile, but they just won't talk. I don't know what the deal is really. It's really frustrating. I wish I could tell you what was wrong, but I honestly don't know..if I knew that answer, maybe I could figure out why people seem to ignore me as well. Keep trying and don't give up, that's what I am doing anyways..Have a great night!

Hun, I have come to the conclusion no one is serious on these dating sites. Sorry, jmo.

I disagree. I think there are plenty of people that are serious on dating sites. But there are also people who have posted their profiles, and then no longer follow up with the account. On M2, there are tons of people that joined, lost interest, and no longer respond to messages. On other sites (namely ones you have to pay for membership), I suspect that there are fake profiles that the site mods use to lure people in. They use beautiful women and men to attract people most likely to pay.

Don't get suckered: don't join a pay site and expect everyone to be real.

Personally, I am looking for someone local to date. I haven't found the right one yet, but I have made some cool online friends (something I didn't expect) and this site is fun.

Try to make some friends here, and stay positive. One yes is worth a million no's!!!

The majority of messages that I recieve are from men that live nowhere near me. I can't understand why they'd be on a dating site looking for people that lives hundreds of miles away. As well, I don't understand why they'd assume I'm on a dating site looking for men that live hundreds of miles away from me. I'm sorry but I'm not interested in a long distance relationship. I want someone I can actually go on dates with and that's why I'm on a dating site! Usually when I make a comment about their distance they tell me that they just wanted to chat and once again I have to exlain that I'm on a dating site.

A lot of people on these dating sites are superficial and vain. They really only care about looks and physique. Most Americans have bought into the lie that the media keeps going that everybody needs to look like Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie to be beautiful. Or whichever Hollywood couple is considered the prettiest at the moment.
