I Am Confused By People Who Think This Is A Dating Site

Actually, I'm not.
In fact, I'm happy for those who found their love matches here.
Frankly, this site is better than any dating site.

I never believed that dating sites will work for me even when I was much younger. But one day, I was bored and just browsing sites. I joined a site with an idea for travel buddies. I love to travel. Perhaps I can meet fellow travelers my age, men/women to meet and greet when we're at the same place and see where it goes. Well, that's the idea of the site, at least I believed it was. In a matter of minutes I had lots of messages. Guess what, all were just catfishing. 🤪 My, if I were too dumb to believe about messages being copy/paste to everyone including me and the lines were taken from a good book of quotes, I might be hooked. But I knew better. There was even a man who pretended to be a 3-star US Army General, so I let him talk even if his pictures were photoshopped and he was very nice with all the sugar-coated words. When it's too good to be true, it is! Then the final moment, I asked him his military email and APO address, he was like WHAT IS THAT? Hilarious! 🤣

One of my girlfriends told me to try another coz she found her beloved there. She just flew to CA for good after meeting him in person last year. I told her, it won't work yet I checked on it....Voila! I was suspended! 😂 After reading some profiles to see how they sell themselves, I was irked on how these men/women enumerate the kind of partners they prefer to serve their conceited personalities. I even talked to a few telling them bluntly but in a nice way about how I felt about their meticulous & well-crafted personalities. I even posted my keen observation on my profile and I was kicked out. LOL

Hey, relationship is a two-way street. It's not just about one person but a couple entangled in a mixed culture and different persona to develop as one as their two paths progress into a single walkway of togetherness.

Finding SW is much better. At least here, I can read people with real stories, not the self-serving,egotistical people who thought they're better than anyone else.

For some, dating sites might work. But for me, it never did.

Mind you, some of the real stories on here are just invented to make those people seem more interesting!
SW-User
@johnbgood Well, not all can be inventors. Some can be engineers, nurse and real storytellers like me. So we should be happy meeting like-minded people who don't mince words but speak their minds.😉
