Hi.

I figured I'd get some feedback here. I'm 35 and have been on online dating sites off and on over the years. I've also met guys when out and about, too. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm cut out to date! Other times, I feel great, and that a great guy is out there for me!

I've tried CL, Match, Yahoo, POF, etc. Right now, I'm talking to a few guys from CL. I've written to some guys, and they don't respond. I read the posts on here and think it's great some gals get to the coffee date! I have problems getting to the coffee date! When I write to a guy, and he responds with a rejection email, I don't like it. I think that it is a waste of time. I'd rather receive I'd like to get to know you better emails. Oh well. I'll keep plugging away! :)

I wrote to a guy on Yahoo, and he sent me a quick reply, "Thanks. I liked your message." What is up with that? You liked my message? Isn't that like me saying I liked your cologne? I didn't know how to interpret it so I wrote back and gave him my email address. Have you gals/guys received a quick reply in this manner?

Also, how do you guys/gals keep up with it? I mean, it's tough to not let your self esteem get in the way. I've had my crying moments, too. But, I don't stay sad for long.

Feel free to respond to me offline.

I do read the posts here, and the information has been helpful.
