Sorry your date didn’t work out Ginger but good for you for giving it a shot. I do think it was a lot like I experienced with VP although we were probably a bit more of a match. We had a lot in common and similar childhoods…lots of things to build a friendship. However…there was no spark and like you observed in your date, I didn’t laugh much. That one is huge for me.
LH - Just need to clarify. When I said 1 in 200, I didn’t mean that I respond to 1 in 200 messages. I meant that about 1 in 200 profiles are appealing to me. Honestly…I am shocked at how little effort people put into their profiles or how many come across as having lost interest in caring for themselves. It’s like they decided to say… “here’s me at my worst…if you are interested, hit me up.” Ummm…no thanks, I’d rather be single. I actually don’t think I’m that picky. I’m just looking for someone who has their life together that I’m attracted to. Someone in that second 40% that you were talking about because that’s where I see myself as well. If I don’t find that person, I’m okay with it. I am finding myself increasingly comfortable with the idea that I might be single for the rest of my life. I’m okay with it.
