ORIGINAL: MathewIndio I go to a BDSM club and have several friends there. I was talking to a woman who was complaining about all the spam, fakes and perverts on dating sites. She showed me her account on match.com and her mailbox was flooded with men wanting to meet her. I looked at their profiles and they seemed like normal men. I asked her, "What about him?" "What about this guy?" She would say, "Eckk!! No!" "He looks creepy." With one swoop with her hand, she called them all creepy, pervs, etc. Including this site. The reason women complain is because they don't give anyone a chance. I realize that a lot of men just want sex, but not all do. Many want an authentic relationship. Don't you think that women have more OPPORTUNITY then men on dating sites? I think making a connection with someone you really like is difficult for most men and women. The experience of men and women is different on dating sites, and the challenges/issues they face are different, but I think most people find the process a tiresome experience. I've connected with a number of women on dating sites, and have dated a lot of women I met on sites. So in my experience there is plenty of opportunity online for men. I don't waste time getting wrapped up in the negative aspects. People will be rude, flakes and disappear without warning. Such is life. If a woman wants to delete 100 messages unread because she's in a bad mood, that's her business. If she wants to judge someone based on something trivial, that's her business. If she doesn't want to give anyone a chance, again, that's her business. If a woman wants to complain unreasonably, that's her business. If you spend your time listening to her unreasonable complaints, that's on you. My feeling is take care of your own stuff, and the rest of the world will take of itself OK without your sage advice/suggestions on how other should act -- trust me, no one wants to hear it.
