Quote From: laurienvIf only men and women would only post the truth about themselves, ie a current picture, correct marital status, age, where they actually live, it would make it much easier for the rest of us who are online and looking for a relationship.
I've been online at match.com have received over 9400 hits and gone out with over 70 men in the past year. Two potential candidates were allergic to my cat, one man's girlfriend wanted him back after 5 months and the other one stopped dating me because I don't gamble.
I'm so specific in what I'm looking for that when I speak on the phone to men, I have to ask if they really READ my ad or just looked at the pictures. Most men who are in there late 40's or early 50's only want to date women who are at least 10 years younger then them. They won't even date someone there own age!!!! To tell you the truth half of these men don't work out or take care of their bodies so they really have a lot of nerve to ask for a beauty queen. These men post pictures that are at least 5 years old and I don't think they've looked in the mirror in quite a few years. They complain about their ex-wives, kids, girlfriends, work, and about the traffic. Talk about grumpy old men!!
I've also talked with a great many men who travel for work for long periods of time and are looking for a relationship. That's pretty tough too.
As my friends say, It's all a numbers game.

God forbid a flabby couch potato guy should have to "settle" for a woman his own age or a year or two younger!
