| What are we here for?

I'm new to this kind of way of meeting people. Having been married and being with the same person for 21 years, I sit and wonder how do I go about meeting someone else to spend time with? As friends or other wise. Currently separated, I need to find a way.
I'm not into the bar scene or the partying lifestyle. I'm not afraid of those activities as I've gone out with friends in the past. I never drink for the purpose of getting drunk, only drinking to be social. I see how much some people lose control when they get drunk. Some have different personalities. I want to remain in control.
I look for and join these online friends/dating sites in order to find who's out there in the same situation I'm in. One thing I've noticed is that rarely does anyone reply back to a simple hello.
We're all here for the same reasons, to meet and know others, build friendships and relationships, but yet, no one replies.
This is not the place where we're going to meet our soul mate and knight in shining armor right from the word go.
You have to get to know someone first and build a relationship from there. That begins with a simple chat.
It's hard to really know and figure people out just in words. Because I may not know what to say or how to articulate the proper words, it doesn't make me a bad person.
I'm a very simple man. I enjoy a lot of things, but more important I enjoy good people. I treat others as I like to be treated and that's with honesty and respect. I enjoy talking to anyone who wants to listen. I'm a caring person who would do anything possible to help others. I enjoy spending time with good people. Being good friends goes a long way. Sometimes it's better just having good friends than being in a relationship. Good, true friends will always be around for you.
No profile will ever truly describe a person as who they really are. It takes talking to someone to find that out. People need to open up and start sharing words with each other. That's how relationships begin.
