One of the problems with the site as a dating agency is that people are very scattered so you may not find many people anywhere near you. But there are lots of people to chat to and make friends with. If you engage in lots of conversations you will soon build up a group of people you have a lot in common with. Join sonme groups and get involved!

I've had outstanding conversations with very interesting and caring people here. Its doesn't have to be about dating. If exchanging few ideas and learning something from someone else is enough then just take the win...it is that simple.

Yes, have met as many interesting members of the opposite sex here as in many dating sites! -- only problem being that they are just plain not nearby! We need more members!! Heck, for a few, would consider 'em my soul mates and seriously consider flying out to meet 'em! Give it time, the more open your comments are - the closer you will be to finding your soul mate. (hokey isn't it .. must be the fine wine!)

Not yet but I will be at the meet and greet. Hope to see a lot of Florida Free Thinkers.

Ive met so many people on here. I feel i can open up to them too. Im not looking for romance...just friends that feel the same as i do about religion. These people are so cool too. I love them.

I'm here for community, open to meeting people, but I don't think this is a viable dating site for me.

Not up close and personal but who cares . Just to put my thoughts in print feels so good

I did connect with one, chatted for a couple of weeks, set up a face to face meeting and when he asked were we going to his place or mine after coffee ended it. I too have tried POF and a couple of others--it's tough. I keep telling myself that if I put myself out there it will eventually happen. Hope so--good luck with your search. How about going to events in areas you are interested in? Hiking, book club, bird watching, a cooking class--whatever--just get out there.

I have had great conversations with a few interesting people. I did not come to this site looking for a date, just intelligent conversation. I would encourage you to try commenting on a subject that catches your interest and messaging to someone who seems possibly compatible. You really don't have to worry about what you say...just open ended comments and questions will do at the beginning. After you feel comfortable with a person, the talking/writing gets easier, in my opinion.
