Don, I get the same thing...when I find a woman of my faith (which is rare), who loves photography and humour etc. I eagerly point out what we have in common and usually get nothing back and think WTF! I think sometimes it's just that maybe physically we don't float their boat. How many women do we sail past because we just don't feel the physical attraction? Probably lots. Sometimes it's also because, as I said above, they aren't that committed to meeting anyone but are just sticking their toe in the water to see what bites. I've also talked with many women and felt things were going well and they just disappear. It's always good to look back at what you've said and how you've said it but often the outcome has little to do with you. It's stuff you have no control over. It certainly can be discouraging sometimes.
