I have been a member of Mingle 2 for a number of years. I have made over 200 posts but no one wants to get to know me. I know I've been negative at times but I am a nice guy. I have tried to help others and yes one or two have talked to me. I just feel no one cares or wants to get to know me. I would like to make a true friend. I am 62 years old and have been a widower for 21 years this month


So what's the problem? There aren't many folks beating down my door to 'get to know me' either, but that means nothing. They're just jealous they're not me. Hey, rationalization works ...

" ... make a true friend. ... " Really? Here? Not in real life? This is an electronic playground where the best you can hope for is to find someone relatively close to you that you might hook up with. E-ing with someone living 1,000 miles or more away is a nice fantasy, but it doesn't translate well to reality. I tried it. I know firsthand. Distance, hotel rooms, and gas prices are NOT just 'obstacles to be overcome' - they're hard money facts that have to be considered when making plans to have that 'spur of the moment' coffee. Note that I'm being facetious with that term, 'cuz that kinda distance prevents spontaneity.

Have you tried hangin' out at any places in your home town? Like the produce aisle at the grocery? Or bakeries? Or Barnes & Noble? Be creative. Join a club. Volunteer. Meet a REAL person, not an electron collection. If y' do want to stay with the online world of semi-reality, at least concentrate on people in your ZIP code - or your state's ZIP codes. The closer they live, the greater the odds you'll have success. In the meantime, lighten up and just enjoy this for what it is ... it's just a playground and a starting point. Have some fun with it ... and quit whining.

Take a class, find a small Theater that has plays at night. You can also volunteer at your public library also.

Semi reality, to each their own... All I know is that this place lifted the veil of lonliness at night when getting home from serious work and wanting to relax and chat. I've met some really awesome people in this '50's' place, I don't gamble, or drink and everyone around here is pretty closed up due to that or the transient nature of this county. So to each their own. When you get to this age, it's not so easy (pretty darn foolish actually) to try and pic someone up in the grocery store, book store, volenteering got me my job. Don't see anyone whinging around here...

I was answering King_knight. Kiteman does this time and again says the same thing deactivates and comes back. All have tried to befriend him and he don't see it. Were not just trying to be mean here. There comes a time when you have to talk frankly with someone.

Carol you are so right.
Nobody wanted to be mean to Kiteman and we all truly wanted to help him and still do.
But there comes a time when a person has to take responsibility for their actions and make their own happiness , nobody can do that for him.
I truly wish Kiteman all the best and hope he does find what he is looking for.
