Found many loves ( although I never met anyone from a free dating site. I used the pay ones but never had to pay either). Was hard to pick but my dating skills got better and better... which allowed me to stop wasting my time and I then I met the right one. We have been together almost a year and getting married in a few months.
I have found that you can waste alot of time so you must be very sure about who your looking for, learn to pass on who is not right for you so you can meet the right one.

swtarkiegal68;
Yes, to your initial question.
As for the rest and depending what your looking for, it does require some time and effort. I guess the best two pieces of advice I have to offer are; *Be Seen ... and *Be Engaging.
But as your profile states that your separated, I can't see where you've had enough time to get discouraged and ready to give up.
Although I'm not entirely opposed to it, (and speaking from personal experience) Dating is not always the best idea persons such as yourself should be engaged in at this time ... as your recent split-up has likely left you open to a high degree of vulnerability.
Of course, I can't know that this is indeed true for yourself ... I can only urge caution for anyone in your situation intent on dating.

eric as to your comment yeah your prolly right now isnt the time to start a relationship with anyone though would be nice to at least have someone to go and do things with though one never has too many friends and besides doesnt the best true love relationships start out with being friends? yes i am seperated its been over a year and i am just about to start my divorce now the holidays are over my marriage was over a long time before i left and ended it though i know probally a lot of people say that but in my case its true i should have left long before i did but what matters is that i found the courage to stand on my own and face the unknown

swt just follow your heart and separated or not, there are men out here that see past that once they know and understand your situation. Been there and all you can do is keep being honest with yourself and them. And yes I have met a couple people personally and have stayed good friends. I am meeting someone next month and my feelings for him are very strong as is his. So don't give up hope just because there is no paper to say you are available, as that comes in time. It's how you feel and whether or not you are ready to start dating.
Best of luck

swt i have been single for over two years now, honestly i am not in a big rush too find love, i come on here too play and jike and make new friends, i leave it in the hands of my higher being too when and if i find that special someone for me.
if this isn't the place that i am suppose too find her then so be it, at least i have made some great friends.
so i guess my advice too you would be, just take your time don't get in a rush and enjoy life for what it's worth.

But as your profile states that your separated
My last relationship was with a man I met on another site who was seperated at the time.I can only speak for myself but I was hesitant to start a relationship with someone who had not completely resolved the relationship he was in. He also stated that it was over a long time ago and they had been living seperately for over a year. But there were several kids involved. Everything was wonderful for the first year but once he got serious about starting divorce proceedings, everything went straight to hell. For the past year, there has been horrible fighting between them over child custody, support, alimony, possessions etc. She has also dragged me into the situation by stating infidelity in her papers. For a long time now, he has had no time for me as a result and I told him that if this didn't change, I would seek other people who had time. So here I am!
I think you should put a final end to your marriage before you get another person involved who may come to have serious feelings for you. It is hard for a brand new relationship to survive the stress and unpleasantness of a nasty divorce. Make a clean break for a clean start!
Good luck to you!

i agree with you kat, but my feelings toward dating someone that is seperated are a little different. what scares me about someone being seperated is the questions you have. like will they go back too them? or will their spouse cause problems for me and her/him? I want too know for a fact that the woman i am with, (if she is seperated) that she will not go back too him. that is what scares me

 Well, was going to meet someone this afternoon at 2:30pm. Sent a confirmation note this morning to make sure and just got a reply back saying she has to cancel. Her truck broke down yesterday, and since there are no dealerships open today she'll have to take it in tomorrow. She asked to postpone until tomorrow---when?...I have no idea. I told her she would have to tell me the time because everything depends on when and if her truck gets fixed. Whether her truck really broke down or she got cold feet is anyone's guess. We'll see if she comes through tomorrow.
 Canceling meetings at the last minute is one of my dating pet peeves, but I guess sometimes it's unavoidable.
