Thanks Barb. I certainly have better things to do than sit around all night messaging with strangers about nothing lol. I've heard a lot of women complaining that men seem to want to chat but not meet. There must be a lot of really bored people out there! The first two women I mentioned are in their fifties and the last one had just checked out my profile, so I read hers and liked it so I contacted her and she replied. She was really nice to talk to, she asked questions, gave more info than she had to, was funny ("I know the difference between an Adventist and a Jehovah Witness lol") and I felt very comfortable with her. I told her that maybe we could message tonight and if all went well we could meet for coffee soon. I ain't looking for a messaging buddy lol. We shall see
