Plenty Of Fish
Hi. I am on POF, and have tried navigating the dating world as well. Sure, of course you get wierdos, and liars. You do on ANY site. It is really hard for any moderator to know if someone is truly who they say they are online. BUT...for God's sake, stop grouping everyone into "loser" category. I am REAL damn it. I live in a small town and it is hard to meet new ppl. You think my friends want to go out "trolling for dates" with me? You think it looks good for a woman, or is even safe...for them to go out alone hoping to meet someone? NO it is not! I don't ask men for money, am not looking for a "sugar daddy". I do not lie or put up fake pictures of myself. I actually update them every couple months even. Ok, so I have had that happen where they talk and disappear. I have had ones that wanna meet and are not as they seem. BUT, I have met people when out...face to face, only to find later the wedding ring had been taken off, they weren't working for the fire dept. but were on welfare...etc etc. You take that chance wherever you are. Meeting a new person means having to take the time to actually KNOW them. Not POF'S fault that some people can and are rude, insensitive idiots. The idea behind POF is just this: trying to help people find someone to be happy with. Plain and simple. It might not happen as you wish, and you might have to keep fishing a while, but at least it is an avenue that you can explore without having to spend hard-earned money for possibly no return. My kudos to Marcus and his site...and to the "haters" let's see you come up with something better, and put your money where your mouth is!
