If so, was long distance involved and how did you overcome this? How long did the relationship last or has lasted to date?.... and anyone planning to get married to someone they met from here?
I've tried so far nothing has worked out. Some of that is on me. But , mostly it's been difficult.
@Ms_McSteven that is correct
@Ms_McSteven idk how old you are but . I'm sure my moms older than you. Thanks I appreciate your response!! Not many tool fans on this site .
@Ms_McSteven I love Old school music. Even though Tool and Radiohead isn't lol But I love listening to all of them !
@Ms_McSteven yeah even though I grew up listening to metal. It wasn't a really popular choice both at my school and household. But nevertheless I don't regret any of it. One my favorite bands of all time is Soundgarden who happen to be the pioneers of whole grunge scene .
I have not met anyone here. One person sent me here, and I sent one person here.
No one really close enough to me, sadly.
Same here sadly
I would love to but it's hard here in Florida.
I used to live in Florida and had two affairs thanks to the Internet. It's hard to forget one woman who said she decided on me because of my picture.
"You," she explained, "where the only one with all your clothes on. You even had a hat."
The hat gets 'em every time.
Not a huge group of locals on here in my area and I'm not available for long distance complications so no not really. Plus I'm super socially awkward so I usually panic and ignore private messages so there's that..
I have heard of it happening.
I should have written their names down but I recall three couples who got married thanks to this web site.
About everybody else keeps find the love lorn to far too far away to meet.
I know some had... and if they are happy... they no longer need this site... including across the pond... yep, US-England.
I met a really great guy here. Sadly, it didn't work out. Have a lot in common and I miss him.
I lost my mind after my divorce. I tried a meetup.com therapy session, but everyone there had more messed up situations than I did. So, I met somebody from this website in Vegas after A LOT of hours on the phone. It wouldn't have worked out even without the distance problems. It's pretty was easy to get a date for no charge on plentyoffish.com . I finally realized that I'm probably not ready for anything remotely serious at this time anyway.
I'm optimistic by nature, so you never know...but no.
I lost my significant other more than three years ago now (to illness), and didn't care at all about ANYTHING for about two and a half years, but recently have started making an effort.
Sure this is a great potential matchmaker site, so I've begun talking to women with that in mind, while enjoying some great conversations. I know I'm "strange" and not for everybody, but I've lots of good qualities too.
This is all new, so I've been:
evaluating my approach,
eliminating self-defeating thoughts and words,
pinpointing level of interest,
thinking positive.
I still see this primarily as a forum for discussion, information sharing, etc., but it might work in other ways.
The fog's lifted from the past, and frankly I'm ready for new adventures.
So no, not yet...maybe never. That's okay. I have a stoic attitude. As usual, I'll do my best and hope someone's listening.
P.S. I've been looking over my messages the last few months are perhaps I'm being disingenuous. I'm getting very little if ANY positive response. But no choice...I'll soldier on.
Not love but a few friends.
Ditto!
