    1, 2, 4-7 ... I don't try to go after the same type, but that's what I seem to attract. All different, but the same. Maybe I need to find new places to look.

    But 1 & 8 if I had to pick. But..... I finally have a crush which feels soooo good! I haven't found anyone attractive in like 5 years and I'm in the prime of my life!!!

    I'm not even picky, but I definitely aim higher than I can achieve. I've never been the cutie... I'm sure that has something to do with it, too.

    I also wonder if I lost my chance because I had dated two guys who were both very into me after college. I think they would have married me... but I wasn't quite there yet and ended things. Can't help but wonder if they were my two chances and now I'm just going to be alone forever.

    No. If they were right for you, you would be with them now. They were there for a time and now they are not. It is as it should be

    Oh hon! You'd end up divorced anyways. Feels too much like settling. I think you need to fun (or stumble upon) who you DO actually want and go for that. I don't really fear rejection thankfully so I'll just try until I've succeeded. I was in a great marriage but after 10 years of it, we were just no longer happy. But it took a long time to get to that point. I still love him for being such a wonderful father to our kids but just want nothing to do with him otherwise. Side note: everyone thought I wasn't good enough for HIM! hahaha.

    Probably because of my compulsion to swear at dairy cows.

    I often will wear a cape made out of toilet paper and insist the waiter or waitress addresses me as “King Charmin”.

    Bc I'm not into BS, I like being free to walk away and not look back if I need to.

    We really need a “why i think you’re single” thread

    Totally agree, LOL. Having said that, I might have gone long enough to try and dip my toe into online dating... *sigh* I guess that will be my version of the above.

    @Nerdswrkout2_1978 I echo the others' disbelief....

    If you are unsure what type of person you want to attract, maybe find out your love style. I read this article and took the survey and I was really surprised at first that it could be so accurate, but it totally was. I always fall for the same couple of things. Every time. Which is useful to know when it happens. At least you know what to look for. :wink:

    Link didn't work for me and I was curious, got another handy? Or the title to find elsewhere?

    I can't help it, I'm just very picky.
    You'd think a woman would appreciate a guy with clean feet though.

    At the age of 60, I've started internet dating. Is it common to have great chemistry online, again over the phone and then nothing in person? It's such a disappointment and has happens 3 out of 3 dates now. How do I break this trend?

    Its just a symptom of online dating. Its easy to have chemistry with someone when your imagination is filling in all the gaps. Plus its such a different medium to get to know people in a text based way first.
