So what if all else fails

May 01 2014

You're on a dating site, you're a paid member. You've spent ages on your profile and its as good as it can be without lies. You've laboriously constructed your messages to each potential other and nothings happened. What do you do now? Wait for new members to join? Pack up shop? What would you do if all your best efforts failed to net a single fish? I expect some people have even had this experience before. I haven't but I'm fast approaching this event horizon on another site .

    I have done everything you have mentioned, even got kicked off one site! I think everyone goes through the same thing. It gets disheartening and you need to take a break. I can certainly understand why some people don't to pay when you seem to get nothing out of it but I also think those who don't can't get the most out of the opportunities. I am a paid member at the moment but I am considering letting it lapse...but then it will probably give me the shits that I can't do what I want on here, lol.

    Websites should be your 'something'..... and not your "everything". I'm concerned that the way you've written this topic means you see RHP as your only potential avenue for sexual opportunity. I believe that if a person struggles in the real world, generally because of their presentation and/or communication styles..... they're going to struggle even more in here where a person is assessed by photo, name, profile writings.... and possibly forum comments... In that order. Ive received significantly more mail since my membership has lapsed, so being an active and interesting member in the forums is very beneficial, probably more so than just being part of the human catalogue. Now, I know I'm going to get more "fan mail" as a result of that summary, but really.... if as a single person you had a rich and busy life beyond RHP, you wouldn't put much emphasis on this site to deliver. That much is self evident logic. Happy to discuss personally with you, but not in the forums DG - Posted from rhpmobile

    its not RHP i'm concerned about... I haven't even cast my net here having not paid for membership yet. i think I've sent 1 flirt. At the moment I'm using these forums for entertainment, something to do. You are right though, i have problems meeting people in the real world, which is why i like the ice breaker of the dating website, but once i get over the initial hurdle I'm an excellent conversationalist. So while websites aren't my everything they're a big something until i get past the ice breaker problem in real life. Well i've got till late june on that membership... Maybe I'll wait till mid may to check again and then it wont feel like the river is drying up. Ehrmergerd! Dhinersewer! I had to check your profile pic out, cos for the life of me i couldn't resolve it as anything except you kissing the rotting carcass of a strung up sheep. Funny how things can look like something else entirely until you actually know what you're looking at.
