Re:Why it's all worth it... bettyboop: I really like this saying, it makes sense. I have burned twice and I still want to find that special someone, I sometimes wonder about that one, LOL.
Re:Why it's all worth it... down south xhubbie: I've always believed in myself, but the world has proven that I was an absolute idiot to believe so.
The world showed me alright. It showed me that true love may happen for some people , but not for me. It doesn't matter how good I am to someone. They don't stick around...
it doesn't matter how dedicated I am at work. Nobody wants or appreciates me. It doesn't matter that I work hours on end 60 + hours a week in the year 2002.
Do you want to know the funny thing? My wife didn't want me for the last part of our marriage. I said, andI can't believe I said this, I said, "well, if you don't want me, someone will. " sarcastic lmao !!!! whew that was some funny stuff let me tell you. ??? ??? ???
please look at the following personals ad. Yep, or nope, no heck no I'm a woman who likes guys, but I don't want a guy with a great smile (didn't say good looking, just a great smile) who loves long walks at the zoo, nice shopping trips, etc. What in the world do I have to do to get a response? I've sent nice emails when I had full access for about 6 months. For the last 3, I've sent ice breakers.
IF you can figure it out... and by the way $31,000 here is about like 42 or 43,000 somewhere up North.
so we've got a nice smile, romantic walks at the zoo, a good sense of humor most of the time, reasonably intelligent and college educated, decent salary, only one child, and a darn heart as big as all outdoors.
I'm typically, 95% of the time, the one who makes the first contact, but I rarely receive responses.
I've also taken a look at the 'competition' and they are not really better than me. I'm at least average to a little above average in what I have to offer vs. the guys within 100 miles of here.

Re:Why it's all worth it... gumby55555: Hey DSXH, don't feel so down on yourself, buddy. I got a little confused in your post but are you talking about the trials and tribulations of online dating, a la match.com, etc.? If you send out 95% of the communiques and don't receive responses, don't feel bad at all about that! It's a numbers game... women receive SO many responses that they have to just stop responding sometimes.
And it's a matter of luck... if you open up your inbox and you've got 30 responses or winks or icebreakers EVERY day, how in the world can you deal with that except by just responding to whoever catches your eye for whatever reason, important or not, and then just ignore the rest. And if you start talking to people, how many people can you carry on conversations with when you KEEP getting a whole bunch of invites and responses every day. Eventually, you just sorta let them go... and that's probably what's going on on the other end. Don't take it personally... it's not so much they're rejecting you, probably, as it is that they're just overwhelmed or inundated by too many responses.
A *LOT* of life is luck... so you've just gotta hang in there and keep playing your hands until luck sidles on over to your side... I know it's discouraging waiting for that lucky hand but don't let it get you down, my friend... Lady Luck's in the wings and is almost guaranteed to deal you a good hand eventually. Just hang in there long enough to still be at the table when she does... :) Hell, I might have to write a country song or something now... ;D
Re:Why it's all worth it... kellekae: you've got to believe...you have to pull that from inside you and believe..hope is everything...there is someone out there who will love you and appreciate you for who you are...you don't have that right this moment because something isn't right for you to have it right now. I really believe it exists for everyone...and that when its suppose to happen it will....I believe that...futhermore, if I can have it...anyone can..don't give up...
