Topic sez it all. Never signed up before. I found three sites and would like to hear hints from anyone cares to share Thanks! Judy

Judy, I thought that head of yours was for displaying that Big smile. You will have no problems making friends here, darlin'. Are you sure you want to??????

I haven't been doing this very long either but have experienced good and not so good things just like you would any where else. I guess my advice would be not to expect too much. I've found that if you see every situation as a new experience, just another chapter for the book, then you're bound to find one positive thing to come of it. Also, I finally had to decide to not be so shy. I figure what's the worst that could happen, so the guy doesn't respond. Big deal, you lose nothing. Of course this is just my opinion and you know what they say about those.

welcome, I guess my advice would be if your bs detector goes off, it is not broken. Trust your instincts and listen to the red flags that pop up when you're conversating with that "special" someone.

Good Luck and Happy Huntimg

Judy >> a little advice here. just jump in and be yourself.. this is a pretty good site, and we do have some fun on these forum boards. i assume you are here for the same reason that all of us are. to find some new friends and if you find your prince/princess along the way then it was well worth the trip. sit back put your feet up and enjoy.

Thanks for the welcome and the advice. Will use my head...I knew it was there for some reason I guess it is like life in general...common sense and reasoning, huh. Again, thank you. Judy

Welcome...there are lots of nice people on this site...take your time and talk to someone before you even think about meeting them and above all if you find someone you think you would really like to meet....talk to them on the phone...typed words are tough because you do not hear the inflections and such....I am sure you will be fine using and trusting your instincts....have fun and good luck

Welcome to the group. *smile*
Just dive right in and have fun.
Just remember to use the head on your shoulders and everything will be just fine! *smile*

Wow, Steve, thanks for replying! I am still a lil shy about the winking thing but will screw up the courage to do it.....soon, very soon...maybe...yes, I will...probably

First, welcome to this site, it's good to meet you. Second, just be yourself and try to meet anybody who rocks your canoe. Read all the posts and you'll more than likely get a good read on what people are like. And if you for some reason you get rejected by somebody, they are fools. This site, for me, has been more friends than dating but that's due to distance more than anything. I have met a couple ladies here and have gone out with one a couple times and had a great time. I've had a few who have said if I'm ever in their area, they would like to meet which is cool. Don't be afraid to send out winks or messages if you can. I pumped out lots of winks at the beginning and got way more responses than I thought I would. But just have fun and be cool, baby!!
