Unfortunately I only sleep about 5 hours a night so I will be online then (but I went a few months without looking at FB) I can be on at random times during the day more often the last few weeks but to be honest the last guy I snogged was on wed night (met him in a pub) and I've never met up with anyone oneline yet (would not rule it out) so no it deffy doesn't rule my life.

OK you could be right. I've never met up with anyone online. I'm deffy not an expert. I like to meet people in the flesh. That doesn't meant online is wrong, I've not managed to meet the right person yet.

Yup, i gave up on writing people as they never write back. Why should i put in the time and effort to not only read what they have to say but to also formulate a unique response in kind. Forget it. There is a reason why men, myself included, come here and whine about women who do not respond. Took me a week to learn that lesson yet some never seem to get it. I am here now where i like it and where i am on a first name basis with some of you.

Reaching out and speaking to a stranger is hard, I'll grant you that, but not impossible,,,,,,,

Strangers I can speak to you don't give up you're all to them.

Which all makes messaging people that do not respond that much more uninviting and makes Mooses' comment even more appropriate.
I have not given up but i am not actively looking either.

Yes, I too have stopped sending messages, for the same reason. I have better things to do with my time than waste effort and energy on a decent email to someone who is just going to skim it, look at my photos, and then delete it without replying. It takes quite a bit of effort to send a decent intro email, to make it relevant to the person you're writing to. When you continually get no response you eventually start to feel that your effort is worth nothing.
I'm pretty much finished with internet dating.

It is all well and good that you bitch about being ignored, but don't you think that the women on here get pissed off with all the muppets on here doing the internet equivalent of heavy breathing.
I think it is (probably) just as hard for the women to weed out the twats on here as it is for the men to get noticed by the women.
I think that if you are serious about the internet dating thing, then you should not expect results overnight, but maybe take advantage of using these forums to get to know everyone here (even though there are not many who use the forums).
Maybe it is just me, but I would rather fall for someone I knew than someone I had just picked out of a catalogue......

There has been love found on the net, and you can defiantly find lust. But personally I don't think there's enough dating going on. I think people do not face the realities of why they are here. The users of these sites, especially women [who probably have the power], come over as being a bit fussy, when they shouldn't be.

I'll tell you another thing, Jeggae, there are a huge amount of women on dating sites who say they're looking for dating and want to meet someone, when actually all they want is to mess about online forever. You can waste months talking online and then when you try to move things on to a real date, they just bottle it. And also those women who just want to use you as a free online counselling service, to pour out their emotional baggage to a sympathetic stranger who they've no intention of ever really meeting face to face.
I'm on a roll.

There are a lot of men that are probably here just to pass the time and mess people [women] about. I suppose you have to look beyond them.
Personally I think if two people are sending personal messages and go on to msn ect, I cant see why a meet/date cant be set up within weeks. If you are both here for the same reason, then maybe in days. I don't see they point in chatting for months, unless you just want to stay virtual friends. I wouldn't say I've ever been on these sites for dating because I rarely go beyond the forums. But that's not to say I haven't met women on here I am attracted too, in an internet way. But I rarely message anyone.
But if I did decide I wanted to go into net dating in a bigger way, I'd probably ask a women that I started chatting too, for a meet within days if she was farely local, if she refused I'd move on. Obviously depends on the situation and the person. But I cant see why a women wouldn't want to meet me for a cup of coffee if she was genuine and interested.

What i write and the choice of words i use would indicate to the reader that i am neither looking for a quick shag nor some pervert looking to cam. You are right, mega. I do not expect results in a week however after writing more than a few dozen letters you would expect to, hopefully, get at least one reply in that time. I have received nothing. Not so much as a thank you for taking the time to write me or piss off and i would have been happy with the piss off part.

I do try to reply to most of the messages I get (well the sensible ones anyway). I have sent a few out too & didnt get a reply, so its not only the guys that dont get any replies.... 
Whether or not I meet Mr Right on here is another question.

Probably not to be honest. Nothing personal, but what seems to be apparent on these sites. But then do you know what you are looking for, and would you know him if you saw him?
The percentage game would probably be that you would have to meet loads of men for coffee.
