| Seems like with every free dating site I find a ton of shallow people, or people who are just too lazy to actually get to know anyone. Anyone out there, well women mostly since we all know men are always looking, actually hope to find any kind of romance? This site seems deviod of substanstive life and pointless topics.
ok yeah I know. this is yet another pointless topic. what can I say, I haven't found anything interesting to talk about yet here.

| well I thought the whole point to being here was the fact that you arn't happy. Otherwise whats the point? *looks up* yup it's still called datehookup.com IE if you already have a date you wouldn't be here. so obviously I don't have a date. so ... here I am. wow. I love pointing out the obvious.. any other questions?

| HI:
Thought I would respond to your post...
I have been since Oct. and am also on Match. I have to say that my experiences here have been very postive! And I am not here becuase I can't or don't have local dates.... I am on here to "expand" the opportunity of meeting that one special person.
What has worked for me, may not work for you or anyone else - but, I am very methodical in my approach to this tool. I have taken the time to figure out the qualities and personality traits that are important to me - And, in addition, I have set "online boundaries" which I adhere to. I view this as screening tool.... ie. "Do we have much in common interest wise? Did the the person describe themselves? Did the person put time and effort into their profile? Does this person know what they are looking for in a partner? What feeling do I get when I review their profile (negative or positive?)"
I guess it is all about knowing your self - and being intune enough with others... Connections can and do happen here - to what degree is dependent on the involved parties. Humor & Patience will take you a long way here.
Best wishes to you in your search!
An open heart is the key.
Peace!
P.Win

| You must have a limited view of this site. Talk about shallow? Man where do you get off?
I have met more people here who are searching for someone real that they can be with and hoping to find that one person they belong with. Read the post and forums where so many of these people are giving advice,and relaying their experiences to help somebody else not to make a pitfall they may have already experience. The shallow people are damn sure the minority here. An awful lot of these people are friends just as if they lived next door. They laugh, cry, and even pray for people who are down. Yes there are always gonna be a few jerks in any crowd. Sometimes being on here helps somebody just get through the night. If thats shallow, why don't you decompose somewhere else

| I quit looking under rocks & decided to give this a try. Except for a small handfull of undesirables, I have found DH to be a great place to meet people (M & F), to engage in witty, intellectual, & playfull conversations, establish wonderful, lasting connections, & yes! I even venture out & date some of them! A positive attitude will get you better results every time!

| decomposer, no the topic is not worthless. And yes many are looking for romance, but we are not going to meet every man that contacts us. That is a waste of time. You must also recognize the rules have changed. After years and years of falling pray to mens games and rules, you now must play by our rules.
Oh and men gave us the rules. We just learned to adapt them. It may sound shallow or egotisitcal to you, yet it is what we refer to as a Learned Behaviour. Thank you for teaching us.
Now, this does not apply to ALL men, but enough to the point the real, nice guys will suffer and be frustrated because their own ill-bred kind has hindered their efforts. Welcome to the real world.

| OP(which means you decomposer) I suspect your knowledge of other sites led you to post on this particular subject...you're new here and so we realize we cannot hol dyou responsible as yet for your inaccurate posting.
Maybe other sites do contain shallow folks with out meaning or purpose - but on this site most on here are definitely not shallow
nor playing games.
A few are that's true.
A few are fakes.
A few are whackos
and a few are losers (men and women)
But - the majority are truly seeking something meaningful, lasting and real!
Good luck on DH and refrain from lumping folks into ONE bad bucket.
