This is an interesting adventure to me seeing as my PTSD is linked to romantic involvement somehow. I am holding my ground pretty well so far. Only one man is emailing me from the site and he seems nice. I don't think I could handle it if a lot of guys showed interest... so I'm not distraut about not getting a lot of attention. I do wonder a little about what makes all the guys hit on other women though... hmmmmmm.

Ummm... I'm not sure how this works ... maybe you give out your picture? So you should be ok, because I have seen it!!
 But as far as this site is concerned if you are your real self, I reckon you will get "enough" attention!! Sorry if this is no help, I just found your post interesting  ****Hugs**** Fuzzy

LOL! well... guys look at my picture, but they don't write. This is a breakout action for me... breaking out of old molds. I'm not probably the type of gal most of them want, but all it takes it one.

I love the online dating thing, but do use some caution--especially having PTSD, like I do. I have found that my trouble with online dating in the past is a good number of the guys are interested in someone to get in bed with them. There are a bunch of good guys out there, too, so try to do some weeding. It would be great if you can chat online using a messenger program. Try to not give out too many personal details right away. That's a mistake I am guilty of, but I've learned and hopefully I'll always remember. I have found a couple of nice guys through online, but the personality wasn't quite right for me, so I threw'em back. Meeting for the first time is an adventure! I felt so crazy, like what the heck am I doing?! I survived obviously and am glad to have done it. LOL I wish you the best of luck!

hehehe ... I have a cousin that found her husband online, in of all places, a chatroom on Yahoo I think. They seem to be very happy and have one of the most beautiful little girls I have ever seen, and I'm a sucker for babies. I for one can't knock it, because I met my ex-wife in person working in a discount store, and our marriage failed. One thing I got out of it is to not shop in discount stores ... lol. I've seen your picture dear sweet Willow and I can testify that if these guys have seen it and still have not emailed you - then there is definately something terribly wrong with them. STAY AWAY FROM THEM! There are several sites out there ... Match.com, eharmony.com, yahoo, msn and so on. One thing I have learned, people can be as misleading in person as online. In many ways I sometimes believe people I have met online have been more honest with me than those I meet everyday. Funny how that is. I do wish you the best of luck sweetie - you DESERVE it!

Hiya Sam... I got all distracted with the holiday and family and all. I am happy for your input. I am talking to one guy on email. There's a huge mix of guys in my area on americansingles.com. Most of them look but don't talk much. It's OK with me... emailing one guy at a time is confusing enough!
(((((((Sam))))))))

LOL Fuzzy. Well... it doesn't work that well, but it's a step further than what I've tried before. I didn't get to age 41 and not married for nothing! Hey... all i need is one guy... I don't need a ton of attention anyway. It's been a fun experiment. I'll keep ya'll updated on what happens

Thanks Heather... I truly think a lot of my depression is due to lack of family or loved ones nearby. The love of my life might help significantly.
