Should I be Discouraged?

Ok, I joined Match.com for three months. I have been on for 5 days, have 100 hits but no luck. Only about 4 responded and only one that I had sent an email to. He met someone already. Should I be discouraged. I am starting to wonder if maybe this was a waste of money. Kim

Kim - do you want us to take a look at your profile? Sometimes another set of eyes (or 5! lol) help ... maybe somone can point out some pluses or negatives? You can tell us your match name & we can look at it. You can also see a thread a couple weeks back where lots of us posted out profiles & there was some good feedback. R~

OK, first suggestion - do a spell and grammar check.

Your suggestions were great. Here is how I changed it....

I am an intelligent, young woman seeking a gentleman who is fun-loving with a great sense of humor. Someone who believes in dating and romance. One who treats a lady like a lady. I am an honest and sincere person seeking the same. I love walks on the beach, snuggling on the couch and picnics by candlelight. I am very flirtatious but all in fun.
I like to play pool, play cards, hang out with friends, cookouts and shopping. I am a romantic at heart. I am a good cook but like having someone cook a for me on occasion. I like spontaneity and trying new things. I enjoy taking off to the Cape for the weekend. Sometimes last minute plans are more fun than those that are planned.
My favorite restaurant is a little family owned place in Leicester,called Zimmy's. The food is to die for!!!
I am an artist and paint acrylic on canvas,pencil sketches and pastels, I used to own a craft shop but now work at a local college and love it. I also take classes toward a degree in Human Services. I love talking to people and people watching.
So if you are one who loves to laugh and live life to the fullest, let's chat.
