Be wary of any internet sites offering dating advice. Especially those offering tips on attracting women. I've seen a few of these and can tell you they're all pretty much BS. The key to attracting the RIGHT person is to be yourself. If that isn't working, then improve yourself first before you go looking for someone else. Get some hobbies. Find something fun. Take classes and learn things you wanted to pick up but haven't. Chances are while you're busy doing that, you'll meet someone who's interested in the same things you're interested in, which is a whole lot better than trying to impress someone by acting differently or trying to be someone you're not. Besides, who wants someone that isn't interested in them for what THEY have to offer? I know I'm not.

The point isn't to do it to meet people. But chances are more likely if you're doing what you're interested in, you'll meet someone else who has the same interests.

meetup.com has been a great help in the matter of doing things I enjoy with people that enjoy it too.

I agree with you wiley.

Some advice given to me recently:
We have to be open to it.
We have to be ready, know what we have to offer.
Then, go for it.

The internet can be a scary place.

You are dead on though, just be yourself, if someone doesn't see that or accept then they would not be the one for you.

aye aye! Otherwise you gonna get locked into an act, a screenplay that you won't be able to play long and then the whole thing just becomes silly and shallow.
