Very true G, but I think the success ratio is a lot higher when aiming for women in my age range. I don't write people off because of it. This lady was talking about things that I'd mentioned in my last thread that I'd discovered were important to me, so I took a shot. She has checked my profile, which is a good sign. In my brief experience in the online world I've noted that after my initial email 60% of women who then check my profile contact me (obviously I don't send out many emails ha ha), usually two days or so after they've viewed me. We'll see, we're on course lol.
