@47Jacqueline @tracyannk28
Fixed for both of you.
Face facts, nobody is going to troll or hope to just find a quick hookup with the ugly ducklings. I'm not saying it's the fault of either of you for being attractive ladies, but if any profile has a photo it leaves opportunity for the "creepy" guys to try. Maybe find a less flattering photo for your profiles, maybe one funny if sense of humor is important, one in professional clothing if that is important to you, etc. Or a very vague photo might attract less creepers and only people with real like interests or something.
And keep in mind that maybe the guy that sent the message you think was "creepy" is just socially awkward, and thought that being forward was the only way to provoke a possible response, especially if they were setting their sights high. I realize that this excludes any guy that calls you a crack ***** when he doesn't get his way, but really most people are somewhat deficient in some aspect. Some of them could be nice guys looking for a similar relationship but just be poor at communicating or understanding what you think is appropriate.
Because, once again facing facts... a lot of the "hook up" type sites and attitudes is because not all women are ladies either. If they were just sites where the guys fished and never got a bite, they probably wouldn't exist all that long.
And totally agree on the blocking likely due to his wife!

@robertw486 The thing is about less attractive photos is that then I wouldn't get any hits at all. So we have to take the good with the (very) bad.
it makes me sad that some women would lower themselves and behave less like ladies just to get attention from a man on the internet. It makes us all look bad.
I'm just about done with the whole dating thing. I think I'm getting too old for the nonsense
For me posting pictures, that reveal my body; isn't meant to attract men. It's meant to repel the men, that wouldn't be attracted to my body. So that I don't waste my time, money, feelings, etc. and/or them theirs, dating each other. I don't want to wait until the moment, we're about to be intimate; to find that the sight of my body'd cause him to have erectile dysfunction. These pictures:
don't show, that my breast's are actually; half way to my belly button & has stretch marks. That my belly is flabby, has stretch marks & an indented biopsy scar. That my hips & thighs have severe cellulite (not just, on the back; of them either) or that 1 of my thighs, also has an indented biopsy scar.
I love this entire post so much!0 -
You should give yourself more credit Monday, you're a lovely lady. Anyone who's lived life has a few marks to show for it...I agree you're being too harsh on yourself. You're beautiful
Thank you very much. I agree that everyone has, marks to show for; the life that they live & I don't mind how I look but when I posted a picture, of myself in a sports bra; I actually got a couple of messages that said: Yuck. So this is the unfortunate reality, of dating websites. They expect us to look flawless or accept being single, as a consequence. My hope was to find a "nice guy that finishes last" but what I found, were narcissistic sociopaths. It appears that all of the nice guys, already have someone.0 -

Thank you very much & you know what, that's the cruel irony about it. These guys announce, on their profiles; that they won't settle but what they don't understand, is that by being picky; they're settling. They're settling for no one, they're settling; for being alone. How is that not settling, for something worse; than someone whom isn't flawless?0 -
