Here it is...

I found Match the worst last time - the two women I did meet were both off POF although I did get some messages on OKC. I doubt things have improved, so it's probably throwing money away. Ah well. Long-term sofadom it is then! Just need to improve my cake baking skills.

I dont know what to think honestly...

Never seen a motorbike with a basket on the front, only normal bikes.... Oh, that's not what he means, is it?

If you think that statistically men have to message a lot of women to get any response, some will never get a response etc, the chances of a man thinking a 'chat' to a woman by cam is a good idea must start to increase over time.

oh I dunno...I have just told him I have to go to sleep ....honestly feel I cant be bothered...sometimes wish I was still married and then remember he turned out be a shit. Perhaps a life of celibacy and contemplation is beckoning...

ike if you go down that roadd, I doubt you'll be on your own!

juliette I think that's true, the odds are not in us chaps favour to start with so wouldn't surprise me if there is enough of a market for cams

There must be some blokes that have success ..

Yes, of course. But again it will depend where they live and generally only the top percentage do well.

But generally OD can't be that successful, otherwise people wouldn't still be on there 2, 3, 4 years after joining.

oh.....sigh.

last time i checked dating sites were full of men who want easy no strings one off sex!

As a 5.5 woman (according to Bant's scale of attractiveness) it is still possible to have dates...like this guy has just asked me for a drink...but unfortunately I have zero enthusiasm for it. I feel a bit shallow...I just dont think I will fancy him and as such I cant be bothered....but I probably SHOULD be bothered just in case...

Take some heart, I do know two couples who got together via the net, one of whom got married last year. He was her first OD, she was his 21st!!! He is the only guy I know who ever managed to get a reasonable number of dates - relatively good looking but VERY wealthy and flaunted it in his profile.

oh bugger...

i mean there are escorts as well as cam girls using dating sites, esp the more casual ones

I know a few folk who have met on line ....feeling a bit like I am going to grow old and hairy on my own.... tonight....

Ike, I suspect if we lived in major cities, we'd find it far, far easier, not just to get dates but quality dates. They don't necessarily mean they will lead to a relationship, but we'd certainly get a better crack of the whip and improve our chances in the old numbers game.

Merc ...are you still 'banging on' about the web cams???I am trying to be maudlin here...

Yes but it's likely to be the same ones over and over with casual. Mr Average from average town would find it tough. Add on a few years and he has very little chance. I have fancied 1. Out of several 100s. They all look the same to me, so much so that when I bumped into a friend whilst on first date with Morning Man I mixed him up with the Academic from the week before. I digress...

So it's the slow shift of realities, I date potato heads and think about fwb, some men will think they are having a cam date.

I do live close to a majorish city though Voice!

That was to ike btw

Ike how close?

Well very close..

Yeah sorry guys but after a certain age you do all seem to begin to look the same..

I think I might have to crack open the Toblerone...

Bugger.

And what age would that be, ike????

My age it would seem Voice or maybe my eyesight is dimming
