Another Random Thought by Lonely
|
Another Random Thought by Lonely We all know the obvious problem with lakes and fakes and being jerked around by people on this site. But I have noticed that because of the actions of those people, especially this most recent situation (see previous entries regarding that fiasco), that I am finding myself having a hard time believing someone when they say they want to meet me. And the more attractive the person is the less I believe them. So what do I do? Do I keep my guard up and protect myself or do I take the chance and risk getting y hopes dashed again? I am going through this with one guy in particular. He says all the right things but I can't tell if he really wants to meet me or not because he hasn't made an an attempt to do so yet. And I know people have lives and they can't just drop everything and do whatever they want when they want (unlike me LOL ). Maybe I just need to learn to be patient and try to have some faith? I don't know... What do you think? The one, the only, the original since 1973 |

One needs to have faith tempered with reality. Slowing down is usually less of a problem than rushing into something. The dynamic is certainly different for male vs female on this site. I can go weeks or months without getting an unsolicited message. I'm sure the women are drowning in them. Men's efforts on FriendFinder-x go toward getting noticed, women's go toward sorting wheat from chaff. If you keep looking eventually you'll have some success. The numbers are in your favor. Best of luck. Prof10001 Swing by my blog!

i just will not endlessly exchange messages with someone. My usual habit is to ask for a meet after 3 or 4 messages if I have an interest. Long correspondence builds up excitement and anticipation, but also creates unreal expectations. I prefer to live my life in the real world, rather than Ethernet. Perhaps, rather than chat with just one person, maybe you should leave the computer and meet several real people. You will still find frogs but I am sure your prince is there also.

If a guy says the things that make me want to meet him, and none of the things that make me want to avoid him, I directly ask to meet in person within a few online conversations. Just to meet, not for a hookup, I make that clear, and propose a few dates in the next week. If he's not legit, he'll have an excuse for every day and he won't propose a day that works better for him. If he's truly interested in meeting, he'll make the time for a coffee or a happy hour. The longer an online connection remains online, the less likely it will transition to an in-real-life one.
