WonderKid Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Have you deleted your account? And if so why? I've deleted mine a while ago. Every one of them. I've talked with one girl. We talked for a few weeks and she didn't want to meet up or anything else. Just message on there. But, she wasn't keeping good at conversations. Some girls completely didn't message back after a while. And the other women on the sites I weren't attracted to or just too immature. So I just deleted them. Not temporarily but like permanently.
zanesfan Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Yep I deleted mine too. Men dont want to meet as well. Or the are too busy to meet. Or when I meet them its all about sex. Or they are possibly married/dating. Or I found out through google they had multiple felons. Its exhausting. The ones I do make a connection with things tend to fizzle out. So no luck there. 1
Author WonderKid Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 ^^^ That sounds very tough. I know its tough for guys but for women I can only imagine.
Philosoraptor Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 I took mine down recently as I met someone. We shall see where it goes but I've done nothing less than put all of my cards on the table. All has went well thus far though.
Author WonderKid Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 ^^^ Settin down all the cards huh? I usually don't do that. But I guess it can work as well as not doing it.
Philosoraptor Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 I'm quite an open person and if I find someone I want to open up to I'll just lay it all out. Worst that can happen is I get rejected. If they don't like me just the way I come she wasn't the gal for me anyways.
Author WonderKid Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 I would usually do that. But I don't because sometimes women would get the wrong impression about me. And, when you message back and forth right? Let's say we have similar interests right? I show them that I even know a thing or two about their interests or hobbies. I even through a specific detail in there. But idk I guess the women look for something else. Personally, I was on POF. And I put on there I don't have a car. Idk for sure!! But! I really do think it's the reason they skip over my profile. I have a nice "About Me" section but I think if they see "No" in that "Has a car" section I think it's a dealbreaker.
Philosoraptor Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 The way I look at it there are millions of reasons for someone not to like me as everyone will see me through their own perspective and everyone has different wants and desires. But by being yourself and putting yourself out there you give yourself the optimal chance to find the right person. I don't need to attract a thousand women, just one. Haha look at my most recent thread when I met this girl. Patience paid off as I was getting approached by women in the flesh and online, but I waited patiently and followed my heart. Patience and just being yourself is what I think are the best dating tips. If you're patient you'll see clearly and if you just be yourself without trying to do anything special to impress people they'll see you clearly as well.
Author WonderKid Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 Its funny because I always tell women the best thing you can do for me is be yourself. You don't have to impress me. I am a naturally patient person myself. But with the dating sites I wasn't so patient hence me deleting all my profiles. I just looked at all the women in my area and it just didn't work out. I'm contemplating uploading a profile in a future again if I haven't found a partner, but for now I just couldn't take it much anymore. I have actually been running into women in unexpected places and such. I'm just trying to follow the signs--and I thought-- maybe online dating isn't where its at for me right now. :/ *shrugs*
oaks Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Have you deleted your account? And if so why? Yes, because I met a girl who became my girlfriend. But she's gone so I created new accounts. 1
FitChick Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 My accounts are hidden probably for the next couple of months because I have other priorities I need to attend to. I do take a peek now and again to see if there are any attractive new members. I continue to take photos of myself on days when I think I look pretty good and add them but when I unhide my account I'll weed through and pick the better ones to reel the punters in! If you let your account lie fallow for a while, most websites will send you an email "We miss you! Take 20% off your next subscription" or similar. 1
