Does anyone else feel like taking a break from the whole "finding the one" business?

I have come to the conclusion I will not find him on here, but I'm not sure he will be found anywhere until I am happier with myself. I'm always ready to think the worst of any situation. So should I give up for a while in order to sort myself out?


Net dating doesnt work for me, too much like hard work. Obviously some people find it easier.
Real life and real physical attraction works much better for me.

It seems to work for some but not for others.
Should be easier, but it isn't.


From your other post about the tennis game you made it sound like a strategic game. Really, if you really like someone you just have to go the whole hog and tell them so that you can take it further. I don't know if you already did that with that lady you was writing about, but to me it's never been about strategy. Its just about letting the defenses down and showing what you feel. If they don't feel the same then at least you can say you gave it a good shot. No regrets.
Not sure if all that applies to you and your situation, but I've said it now anyway.

Wow I have to say I didn't quite expect a response as big as that so I won't quote it!

I suppose once you tell someone you like them and would like to be more than just friends you ask them out on a date. That would be the natural inclination. Presuming that when you have just told them you like them, they give some kind of response there and then?

Sounds like you need to meet that woman and find out one way or the other as keeping her at arms length as you both have been is not going to resolve the feelings involved I would have thought?
You never know, you might like the area she lives in once you visit Wink
