Ok, so I have been on EVERY online site imaginable. You have a question about one, then I probably was on it and I can you give you an update. ALL have been just really YUK; especially match.com and REALLY expensive for the stuff I had to put up with. What a bunch of skeezos! Way to many players and jerks. Most with no kids or no interest in more kids or no interest in kids whatsoever BUT they think they have to contact me anyways!!! Even tho my profile DISTINCTIVLY says I am a single mom and if you can't deal with it, then don't bother contacting me.

hey, thanks, I'm definitely going to take a look, since match is definitely not working for me!

I joined this site twice and had absolutely no luck. The same game players, ghosters;etc
that were on the other sites were on this one as well. Sad, considering these guys are
raising kids. I've joined just about every site, and the result is always the same, liars and ghosters. I've given up on OLD, the men on these sites have no intergrity or
charecter and I'm the best at sniffing out bs and such. That's part of my problem, I can weed out and sniff out pdq, guys don't like that-ts. I don't want to discourage you though, a very small percentage of women actually do find men. You could be one of those that beat the odds. I really wish the old medium wasn't like that though, it's the only way I had to meet men, so now I have no way to do it. Hey, maybe I'll get lucky and some guy will tackle me on the way home from work-lol. Best of luck to you.

A friend and I both were on this site about a year ago. I met someone really nice, but he lived too far away. She met some real players on this site, so beware. You just never know in cyberspace. But, the price IS good and keep us posted!

Ghosters are people who "disappear" with little or no warning. This may be after exchanging emails, phone numbers or even after meeting. My friend had a guy that was supposedly flying to Dallas to meet her. He totally stopped calling and emailing. He wouldn't return her calls. I figure he was married or just a "player".
Have you tried the online dating board? They have lots of good advice. http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/listsf.asp?webtag=iv-rlcyber&nav=start

AHA! I've had a few of those, but I figure it's something that I said, that they didn't like. Usually the fact that I have two children from two different Dad's get's them to vanish. LOL!


However, lately, I've thought about it. I know friends of mine, that actually have married 4 times or more; like myself, have had more then one partner when having children and other issues, but still, they found love and they meet that special person, that accepts who you are, regardless of your past.


Therefore, the ghosters do sometimes bother me for about

I hear ya! I've been married twice, divorced twice and my kids are from 3 different fathers. Yes, some people have judged me for it, but scr-- them ! Who wants to waste their time with judgemental people anyway. Hey, I lived, I loved, I went to hell and back, but guess what-I'm a much better person for it. I'm also strong, stubborn, obstinate,opinionated as all heck-but with a heart as big as Texas! To know me is to either love me or strangle me-hehe. I don't know if it's because I'm getting older, or because these past few years I've really worked hard on healing myself, but I just don't care anymore If a man can accept or not. Like you said in your post some women married 4 times find love, so why can't I ? Hey, if I can find that special someone-great, if not
a special friend will do me fine (less man crap to deal with-lol).

Good luck with this site!! I am currently going to try dating a guy to appears nice and sweet and down to earth, but you know guys, they can tell you anything they want to get whatever they want sometimes. He has been incredibly honest with me thus far. We are supposed to have our first official phone call to each other tonight after several emails and bouts of IM's. He seems absolutly splendid so far. But I don't get attached easily and I have lots of friends who they and I all "use" (and I use that tongue in cheek) each other equally for a ego booster and "What an idiot" bonding when someone has not recognized what wonderful people we are. :P Plus the boards where we can all either laugh it up and/or cry it out. ;)

And even if you do meet more losers, don't lose faith. I know more than one great couple who met on-line and things are going very well for. :)

Cheers!

Wow, thanks so much for passing it along! I checked it out, and signed up, we'll see how it goes. So far, Match and Yahoo aren't really working for me, but this seems like it might, since the men have kids, too.
I'll keep you posted, and good luck!
