Seems as though people just want a meaningless hook up . Doesn't anyone believe in true love , soul mates ? The dating world is so discouraging and deceiving.

I agree with you ,

Indeed. Wish I could disagree, but so many things are 1-2-3 quick and easily accessible from instant coffee, fast food, disposable things to easy-come-easy-go relationships.

It seems as if half the people on this site aren't even real, or they live in Africa,but; to you are right lots of people just want play.

Every one has a reason for wanting what they want. ..

Some are open and up front about what they want. Then some think they can change the other persons ideas.

I guess we need to weed out the land, myself, I am tired of the bad drama. Makes me wary, but yes it will be nice to have a soulmate.

true love sadly can be realized when youve lost it and im glad i havent lost anything yet. but yes it would sure be awesome to get lost with someone forever

All i've written here are probabilities and debatable and subject to change,

in my hopeless opinion ;), where there is any emotional connection whether it is shortlived or prolonged, onesided or both ways, i should admit that love exist or ever exist (is that a law of existence?)

due to its ilogical nature of influences, some people value it and some may seem craving for by searching for it through many dates and hook-ups,

to the scientists and/or over-rationals they just put it as brain chemistry and other hormonal activities
to the sensitive people it is more kind of supernatural,

(..when love doesn't work for me for a reason or more, i try to think that way many ways, so my energy is wasted and "YET" i don't go become too easy. it's kinda failsafe i guess, i cherish the seemingly hurting and hollow feeling it gives, and trying not to ask for more than she could give),
but who knows what future holds, maybe i just give up and go the easy way

Gosh, writing isn't my thing, and pardon my grammatical, found 'em here and there after reading my own reply,
english is not my mother tongue

One that i found to be corrected
..i should admit that love exists or ever existed..
"My bad, I should've read it allover before hitting that post button"

It true because now a days every1 in a hurry. They watch these fake reality tv show and teach the youg get what you can for yourself. It is also true that the one guy said ppl want what they want for reason. Ppl get tired of getting dump on so they say just gonna get it no relationship it's easier for them. For the ones who want love it takes time you both have to be honest understanding have patience and learn to accept each other for who they are not what you can make them be. Last part to let your guard down be vulnerable you can have love but can't rush I meet some women who fall in love to quick you can do that. That's why it's called falling in love let it happen let yourself fall ok

I do

hey

A common perception. I suspect it is an accidental exaggeration, to some extent.

I think it IS true, that a lot of people who are back to the dating trenches due to divorce, or to other painful experiences, are often set against putting themselves back into the same emotional mess they just got out of. Especially in the case of those of us who went through painful breakups and divorces, where every time we turned around, the other person was making some NEW demand on their emotions. So now, they want to have the "fun" version of relationships, where people just play with each other.

In addition, I think it's probably true that there is a variation on the squeaky wheel thing involved. That is, it's not that MOST people want meaningless hookups, so much as it is that the people who DO want meaningless hookups, are making the most noise, and doing the most chasing.

Those of us who are searching for something like a true love situation, are going about things more carefully and quietly.

slow and sure way better than easy come easy go

I agree with you guys here
so few people want to put in the effort to know someone anymore
its all point and click...see what I can get for myself ...without thinking of the person behind the computer.
I just ignore those people though.

Meaningless hookups: No thanks.
True love: In my dreams.
Soul mates: sellable pitch to the naive.
The dating world is whatever people will make of it.

I agree as well

adele line.. what if I never love again? Scary at my age.
