Online dating?

If you met someone online and emailed several times a day for a 2 months, then the following 3 months it started getting to less emails and almost no phone calls....does that mean it is time to call the 'relationship' closed? I was told to just enjoy it as we are...yet I guess I thought it was going to something more serious *sigh*





We are nearly 300 miles apart and have met once (my driving since he doesn't) We are in our late 30's and my being so new at this am unsure how this all works.





I took my profile off the dating site yet he kept his on and updated it. Should I take that as a big clue to back off him or not worry as he said he just wanted to take a look around.

Online dating?
I think you better forget about him , this doesen't sound good....
Reply:yes bee, take it as a clue.......i will tell you this, do NOT get discouraged.....Online dating is...a bit different than regular dating....put your profile back up there.........If a man or woman is interested in someone, really interested, they will hide their profile, ..and concentrate on only one person at a time, UNLESS, they are just looking for ..."one thing".....also, if you actually met already.....then he must not be interested, ...or he'd have pursued you....So not to worry. I dated online , on and off , for a few years.....and then i met .."the one"......out of the blue in a chat room, talking sports.........I will marry him next year, its been 5 years and i'm ..."older" than you!....so, dont give up....try a few different sites....and ...let them drive to you!!...I had one guy fly me to his state, ..all expenses paid, ...and although he wasnt "the one"...we've stayed friends,...weekly talks, etc...for years....


...Just keep at it, ..and good luck....email me if you want,...anytime.


oh ,and my guy? was 4 states away, so look further than your "back yard" for sure!!! Love has no limits as far as miles!
Reply:Thats sucks.... find someone closer!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply:you need to ask him the questions you want the answers to about anything that concerns you about you and his relationship. don't be afraid to ask him any questions. he's just a human being. what's the worst that could possibly happen?
Reply:I'd avoid it.
Reply:Put your profile back on the dating site. He is looking for someone else.
Reply:Put your profile back on and have fun with it. Maybe you will meet someone a lot closer to you. You may have to kiss a hundred frogs before you find the prince.
Reply:Just forget about it. It was just a game.
Reply:i don't think it could be anymore black and white look around
Reply:300 miles is waay too much. It s a good thing you didn't get too emotionally involved. Think about it, he s got sooo many options online so the fact that you guys are not talking as much is a sign for you to let him go. Don't give up yet; put your profile back up there and just look for local guys...it's the best way to go when doing online dating.
Reply:Yes! he is still looking, he's using u as backup. do the ssame!
Reply:personally, i think online dating is really dumb. you can portray yourself as something you're not easily. and 300 miles is kind of a hassle and inconvenience. it's unfortunate (this situation) and that you really liked him, but i think he's trying to drop the hint because he doesnt want to hurt you. i think it's time to move on and find someone who absolutely positively wants to be with you and can meet frequently. dont waste a bunch of time on someone who makes you feel happy through emails and meet someone who makes you happy in person.





good luck with whichever path you take!
Reply:Time to move on .
Reply:Online dating is dumb
Reply:Its not going anywhere so you need to tell him thats how you feel and break it off. Then after that just keep on looking. Have you tried going to the gym or joining and club where you could find someone better suited for you? Those things normally work better - learned it in my Sociology class.
Reply:Hi Bee, I definitely think I would call it a day. If he has left his profile on and especially if he has updated it then to me that would indicate he is still looking. Those dating sites are brilliant for finding like-minded people so cut your losses and I'm sure you'll find someone who will treat you like the goddess you deserve to be treated like. Good luck.. tho I'm sure you don't need it. x
Reply:That would be a yes.
Reply:I available for dating.
Reply:drop his a$$
Reply:It can be called as a friends, let him missed you, i think hes still browsing all the lady's. You're not girlfriend and boyfriend so enjoy your life.
Reply:300 miles, is it worth it? if he has backed off contacting you, i would move on, surely someone is closer. who knows, you may find someone who meets your standards and is not so far away.. but stay away from "myspace"
