I know what you mean about the idiots. Here is what I did - I accept their initial IM message and then I click on their pic to see their profile. If I don't like them I hit the block button. LOL!!
I don't like the whole chatting thing either. And to be honest, I met a few of the guys from POF and didn't like any of them. I think the quality on match and the number of guys plus the ease and ability for them to search and really see the pix is worth the money. I have tried a lot of sites - POF, fitnesssingles, match, yahoo, eharmony, KISS, and probably more and to me, for my age group and location, there is nothing like match. I think if a guy has to fill out all that stuff and pay, he is interested in finding a match and dating. Not all of course, but most. And it is a numbers game in the end - and match has the numbers for sure.
But you have to have the money and be ready. I know you have a lot on your plate right now with the move and stuff.
Oh wow! I used to live in Bay Ridge before I moved to Staten Island! If you go there now, great restaurants and bars, but it has become like most of the city, the land of the young, skinny and pretty. My almost 25 yo ds and wife hang out there if it gives you any idea of how youthful it is.
Good luck with your new prospects! Read the POF forums when you get the chance, they're something else!
