No, I dont think this is a place for mere venting. I have given some very good suggestions and insights and I have received some also.I have also seen some VERY VERY good advice and thoughts

 

But, what will be the probability of actually "meeting" people like LSiates, There are many who actually meet such good guys and girls but they will never come to LS to talk about their situation will they??

 

Yes, we can have dating site within LS, that would seem good :love:

 

Moreover many people get reformed after getting hit real bad in LS.

 

I love LS because this is one site, where the collective experience of many many people is useful to guide you .

 

This would be the only dating site with a really useful forum.

 

The thing to consider about dating someone off LS is you had better be really sure. Odds are they live 1000 miles away at the very least. We have posters from East India to the West Indies, and Dallas to Vladivostok. That would be just my luck.

LS is not like the real world...not even close. At least not in my opinion and definitely not within my circle of friends. All the hopelessness about how if you're not a perfect specimen physically, you'll be forever alone. Or race issues.

 

I have friends from every race, from good looking to "got hit with the ugly stick" and only ONE guy I know has been perpetually single since we knew each other in high school over 20 years ago. And he has already admitted he has mother issues and can't form relationships. But he has had women come on to him...he just refuses to see it and would just rather not go there.

 

I guess it's also my age group...I'm in my late 30s and maybe dating is different nowadays than when I was single in my early 20s. There were no forums to ask every single little question on. I didn't have anyone to ask how to go down on a girl or what to do on a first date, or if I should call in 3 days or kiss on the first date or page (yes, page) them right after a date, etc, etc, etc.

 

I had to figure **** out on my own...and I think that's what most people should be doing, not asking for advice here. Because the #1 rule in dating and relationships is: There are no rules in dating and relationships. You can't take something as complex and dynamic as the human persona and try to apply standard rules to it. It just doesn't work like that.

 

Now that being said, I do think there are some intelligent and sensible people here passing on good knowledge, but the main problem is that if you're not experienced or aware enough to tell the good from the bad, then you're as likely to pick up bad ideas as good ones...pretty much leaving you where you started...confused as hell.

I beg to disagree, its not rules, there are patterns in human behavior , you should probably visit some other forums where there are many many people wih similar experiences and similar results.

 

But you are spot on that you need to tell the good from the bad and need to be experienced to correctly pick the right advice ( In some cases every one say the same, that time can be 100% sure it IS the right advice)
