Everyone is capable of attracting someone but not everyone can be summed up in 200 words or less. You have more to offer than that, don’t give up hope!

Even the guy I know who did meet his girlfriend there said it's a numbers game, and he was using those sites for a year with very little luck before finally meeting her. Best not to take them too seriously, I think.

Maybe but not with online dating.

I actually changed my profile, did a spoof one. It was really silly. Posted it on my facebook and my friends on there were pissing themselves with laughter. On that the dating site, I got one message from somebody who thought it was genuine. lol

Lonesome Crow said:dude.....dating sites or anything else in life...just re-enforce whatever the fresia it is about me.
I recently join a free dating site. I didnt even complete my profile or post a pic of me.
I simply enteracted in a couple of post. One post especifically, I wrote about how
hot chicks hits on me and I've been asked out my pretty chicks most of my life....
Guess what???....I had hot chicks sending me PMs and posting in that thread
saying how sexy I am.
Even with ny improper grammer n wacked out spelling
Im not single anymore....Guys like me dont stay single for that long.lol
If i was to post a pic of me in my profile...it would be this.
Im too sexy for a shirt.lmao
edgecrusher said:i tried quite a few dating sites like 2 years ago and it found very few "matches" in my area. and even then... i cant get matched with someone that way. they arent accurate when it comes to me because i need to talk to the person and get a feel for their personality because thats way more important than anything else to me. i ended up meeting someone on a message board and talking with them for a while and it eventually went from friends to i think i like you more than friends to lets meet to being more than friends. the distance sucks though. i think that if personality is super important to you then dating sites arent very good. youd probably be better off talking with people on a message board of something you find interesting.

Im not saying you lied....
Im saying whatever it is that happens on the outside of me are
just reflections of what's going on inside of me. Whether it's online
or offline.
No matter what anyone say or thinks about me....

or not loveable.
I attract beautiful drop deads gorgeous women oneway or the other.
A woman or women will always love me oneway or the other.
If other people have a problem or issue with this,...that's thier
fucken guily trip, issues and problems.
Im a very beautiuful person inside and out.
I say this with great confident and awearness....
I love Renae with all my heart. I know this too.....
