Did you "meet" on a dating site?

Never ever give up

Dating probably isnt the way to go though. Somewhere like a club where you can really get to meet and know people over a period.of time.

How many times do you hear of people getting together, who really didnt like each other at the start... happens a lot.

Someone I know, who after years in a relationship, ended up quite alone. Joined a walking club... and I mean one that went all over the World on Walks, through Africa, Russia, those kinds of places. Ended up in a really good relationship after a couple of years of active membership..

Sounds like a great way to me the above.

Best of Luck Sas... and keep on keeping on

Yes met on a dating site - chatted over a coffee - all seemed good - then on phone for a while over the last few weeks. and then the 'date' and it didn't go as I wanted/expected....just not well.

He was a gentleman - but very quiet/shy/reserved. I felt comfortable - but I didn't feel a 'spark' or any thing that I could say would lead to something.

Suppose you only ever get one real love and you never get that twice. Or maybe you do but you have to look high and low - I don't think I can be bothered - it seems 'too' hard.

Maybe I am expecting too much too soon - and I think I should leave the 'dating' thing for another few months.

It is very hard to find that "spark" isn't it? I have more or less given up now, can't be bothered LOL!! Have been on and off dating sites more than a few times since my divorce (more off than on TBH) but nada.

However I do know 3 couples personally who met on dating sites and are now married, so you never know..........

I am thinking of taking up hiking myself LOL!!

Sparks occur when you least expect them but when they happen there is no mistaking their effect.

Don't be giving up - it'll probably happen when you least expect it

After TheOriginalMrDreamy died I ended up in an abusive relationship - when that ended I felt so worthless that I didn't think anyone would possibly be interested in me again. With three kids it was impossible to do the usual pubbing/clubbing malarky so a friend gently pushed me in the direction of an online dating site. All the flirting did the power of good for my ego and gave me something to look forward to when the kids were in bed. I didn't find true love there, but I do still have two very good friends who have seen me through all kinds of crap related to TheVileEx.

Eventually, I met Himself (online too, but through social media rather than date sites) and he's the reason we're now living on the other side of the world.. so no, don't give up. You can find true love more than once in a lifetime and you don't have to hunt high and low for it. Just believe in yourself and have fun.
