I have nothing constructive to offer, just wanted to send you hugs, and to let you know you are deffinately not alone! I've been doing OLD for years! and in all those years, I've only gotten one date, and he turned out to be a total creep!


I just canceled my almost 6 month match sub. last week, not one guy looked my way in 3 months.

I agree with you. there are also those men, who I think , send out mass winks to see who will bite. Funny and weird.

OLD QUEEN HERE! Going on and off OLD for 7 years now. Sometimes so hot is doesn't stop and sometimes dry as a well. The last time I went on (last month) went very well. I had a date every night and men that still contact me now. Othertimes? NOTHING, NADA!! It must be the season! Don't give up! Keep trying and try some new pics too. That used to help West all the time! I used to get sooooooo many hits by jerks it wasn't even funny! It wasn't until I chopped off my hair that more men that liked me for my profile that they would contact me. Don't give up!!!!

Yep, you get all types. I really feel that to do it successfully, and not want to kill yourself in the process, you HAVE to play it like a game.

I went to art school and after everyone graduated, the ones who were the most successful weren't the best artists, but the best salesmen/women. OLD is the same way. You are marketing yourself. The plus side is, you don't NEED to do this, so it isn't like your life it depending on it. If it is, well, I have no advice there!

I was just thinking today of doing some new pictures, just to see what happens. I rewrite my profile when I am in the mood. The stronger I feel about myself, the more I change it.

The BIGGEST drag for me is that my computer is in my livingroom, so the only time I can go on is the time between I have dropped the kids at school and I go to work (a whopping 15 minutes), or Saturday morning when they are still asleep. One guy now knows to IM me at 7:45, which is pretty goofy.

The most shocking thing is how IMMATURE some guys are. And the ones who say they are 44 and look 59. Like their date won't figure that one out.
