Have you met anyone from this site?
I have met 2 people that I would consider acquaintances.
I keep hoping to make some friends and dream of romance through the site but so far no luck.
How about you?
Most of the people here live too far away from me. Nevertheless, maybe I'll meet someone from here, even if it's for a pint and yapping.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Just met one, had a couple drinks and a nice chat but that was it.
No, but I'd like to try making friends (preferably local) here.
The individuals here I would be most interested in meeting are either not interested in meeting anyone (ala bio info), or are too far away even if there was mutual interest. Beyond all that, I think I'm a lot to put up with.
@Akfishlady I'm also my harshest critic (I think).
There just aren't many available men in my age range in my area. Sooooo, I'm just enjoying the hanging around.
I can relate to that my dear. I am always a friend.
@jlynn37 Thank you, Lynn!
Unfortunately, no. I feel like most people around my age and live close by don't stick around on this site very long.
Agreed. Most the guys who seem interested are much older than me. Closer to my father's age. ?
Yes, I've met 5 people. None local to me. Both male and female friends. Might meet one or two more on my trip from Texas to Nevada in a few weeks. There are now more people in Nevada than when I left so maybe when I get back there some of us can get together. I'm taking a break from looking for romance right now but ultimately that's my goal.
Went on one date with one person. There was nothing there.
Been talking to someone else on the phone and on line for over a month now. We're really hitting it off. Unfortunately, she lives 450 miles away, but we are making plans to meet soon. And often. Who knows, maybe a move is in my future?
Distance is the main issue...
There are about 30 people I can think of right off the bat... that I would love to meet.
5 or 6 that I would dearly love to meet for a beer or glass of wine or lunch or dinner.
There are some truly wonderful human beings on this site...but it is only distance that prevents us from embracing them as tangible friends.
I wish this community was a village somewhere..and we could talk instead of typing..but there you are...
Although I have encountered several superior minds on this site, there are far too many miles so I have no expectation of establishing a substantial relationship.
@Davethecave Hi back. LOL.
I met the most wonderful, kind, smart, and beautiful woman with whom i am enjoying a renewed spirit. Started with coffee and cocoa.
Nice. I hope things work out for you.
@Beowulfsfriend You’re pretty cute too. ?
I can't find anyone nearby.
There's the issue... nearby. Open to possibility! My new love is 1400 miles away. But not for long.
