I just used to wait to see who “wants to meet you” on your email…then remember the username of who wanted to meet you and look them up on plenty of fish website…easy dude…what’s so hard about it? I met my girlfriend there.

3

idk how, who do i know that wants to meet me/?

4

check your emails…it should be there.

5

i dont get any emails

I’m too scared to use dating sites. I feel like someone I know will see me and then know I have a mental illness.

Maybe I could make a profile and only tell people that message me that. Hm.

I hope your results get better! I know that there is someone for everyone…

Thanks for the tip, @jukebox

I’m on PoF. I hope I don’t end up with another lazy guy.

ETA: Actually you can’t see anyone in the MeetMe section unless you upgrade.

Considering the way (most) dating sites are set up to maximize profit potential (from subscriptions and adverts) for the site developer, one has to understand that “lowest common denominator” is the way things work in this universe.

Having worked in the media for years, I was easily seduced by a grad school prof about ten years ago to participate in fact gathering about the then much newer phenomenon of dating websites. Without going into all the parameters, what we learned were two very simple and straightforward, bottom line truths:

  1. “All of the good ones are taken,” and

  2. “All of the really good ones refuse to be ‘taken.’”

I did, met a guy, fell in love, got my heart broken and had a relapse. Sorry to rain on your parade. I met my girlfriend on tinder but we already knew each other from high school.

Maybe they should change the name you know.

Instead of plentyoffish it should be called excessoffish.

I was on tat site about 7 years ago. I have regretas about how I portrayed myself though. I think I portrayed myself as an ego (out of some sense of insecurity). I didn’t get any interest though. I used to use humor but I think that portrayed me as arrogat and above others. If I was on it again, Id try to just be a regular guy, and try to use humility and niceness.
