"Has anyone tried sites like eharmony and okcupid?" - Not perticulary those sites, but a lot of others! Most danish dating websites. Come to think about it, it makes me feel a little pathetic. Not because there is anything patchetic by using them, don't get me wrong. I just feel like it, when I think back.
First of all; nothing happens. It sucks. Second of all, going to a website with the intention to get a boyfriend/girlfriend (what you are into), also seems... what-should-ya-call-it... weird?? "Hey, let's write together, and see if we can be a couple!"
I'd rather talk to people online, just for the fun of it, and then let it envole to either a friendship or more. But to be honest, I don't care much about love relationships no more.
And what I really hate, is those advertices, like: "3 million people finds the right one every month on this website." Lol. Once again it shows that statistics sucks.
Well, have fun there. I'd rather watch Jenna Haze on my screen than some random girl, trying to actually BE Jenna, and lying her ass off in her profile about how good a person she is.
Not saying that everybody does, but that is mostly what I see... But good luck, hope it works out for ya.

Someone told me to try ParentsAlready.com, as he found it worked and its very good cost wise. You don't even have to pay before you chat.
In 7 days I have sent out 22 messages to different women. Just asking if they would like to chat.
i have had zero replies.
says a lot about me I suppose. I don't know if this is normal or not for that site. But what kinder things have you said in your message and what do you have to say in your profile there.
Make a thread telling us all this and maybe some of the women from this site might give you some advise in what you may be doing wrong.
But hay, at lest ye trying 
I usually send a preset message which reads:
"Hi, I like your profile. Would you like to get in touch?"
All they have to do is send back a preset message that can be a "yes" or a "no thanks"
I'm not even getting a "no thanks"
My profile just gives my age, marital status, and my likes/dislikes. Just the normal stuff.
I am looking for a female between 33 and 45. In the Midlands area of UK.
My profile pic must be that horrendous its scaring people away :-(
Maybe you need some help on your profile. I am pretty good at profiles and have people who can vouch for me! You have to catch someone's attention with your profile. There is a small window of opportunity and you need to stand out and let them know what is special about you. I think we need a thread with hints and tips for profiles. Don't think it's your picture, it may be your not standing out. Trust me, I have had so many replies that it was very hard to keep up. If your up to the challange, I'll give you a hand.
For a guss it could just be that your a women that you get so many replies. I would say it would be easier for a women to get a man then it is for a man to get a women on a date.
But Robert if you got Naleena helping you then I think you may be half way there already
Also Naleena if you make that thread I think it would be interesting. well you may have don already, I just got here to day

I just found out that I met another married man online. After figuring out his proper last name, I found a photo of him with his wife on Facebook. And it's their wedding photo. He told me that his friend married an Asian, in fact it was him who married an Asian woman. Sick §$%$%§!!!!!! And he chatted with me for hours, telling me that he is not one of those married men. To all the lonely people on this forum, stay the hell out of internet dating sites.

Well, at least you found out sooner rather than somewhere down the line. Still, full credit to your detective skills.

Ye agreed, better to find out now rather then later. You do have to be careful on line. Its so easy for a person to lie about who they are.
You did well ClosetGeek, you did your homework and court this rat out.
