I am finding a great many ironies in the whole online dating concept.
The first is that paid sites usually offer less than free ones
The second is that if you join one you may as well join them all so you can have more to do with your time checking various mailboxes. It is interesting to see WHICH site I will find the same persons mail. (This fits me too)
The next is that most ads women place which include the words "tired of games" are so often written by the biggest game players of all
Then there are the profiles which insist on honesty but the profile holder reveals almost nothing about herself and no picture
I met one gal whose ad stated she was petite. She was 5' tall just as stated but she weighed 230. When challenged on her HONESTY she said she bought some of her clothes in a petite shop. (I figured it must have been her scarf) Her profile had insisted on honesty too.
I have placed on my profile that I am interested in an initial meeting with anyone interested in me who I feel a mutual interest in PRIOR to lengthy chats and idle conversation. I am tired of the chit chat game. It usually occurs at Yahoo Messenger using the same name as I use here. I am contacted by someone who has read my profile and wants to chat. I send her links to the various things she wants to ask me because I type slowly with two fingers. My connection is "dial up" and my time is limited. Meanwhile she insists her pictures will be posted in a few days. So we talk a while and she disappears. Then about two weeks later she reappears expecting me to remember her as "the one true love of my life" because SHE felt we connected so well. Meanwhile her son or sister or great great aunt on her dead grandmother's side has still not helped her post a photograph. So as kindly as possible I let her know I have established "rules of contact" and will no longer talk with her. At which point she gets mad and tells me off, stating I can just "go after all those all those Internet bimbos you are trying to get to go to bed with your sorry self"
So to satisfy the needs of decent women who want to know more about me before consenting to an actual meeting, I built an entire website of poetry and personal information as well as cut and paste bios to send them if they are interested in my life history. If the relationship progresses to where she knows my actual name, a search can be done which reveals me in the top search results for several pages on Google. I don't really have much to hide. Meanwhile I am discovering that some of my pictures are outdated so I took some very new ones and added them. Then I have noticed that although my profile says I am 5' 10" I may be shrinking as I am getting older because I just checked and I am that height "only" if I leave my boots on. Those boot heels are 1' tall so maybe I am shrinking, but since I don't look very "manly" in heels, I may have to have somebody help me take an accurate measurement and restate my height.
Meanwhile since none of this is working at all, I may go to some club tonight, walk up to the first good looking woman I see and say, "I am looking for a deep and meaningful relationship... What night's good for you?" (just kidding) steve
