| Also most dating sites let you have a bit of a look around at the profiles before you decide to join, so that's always a good thing to do. Check out whether the site has profiles that are in your age range, or are there ways to search by common interests? A good test of a website is to join up (most... |

| That sounds good, but can you give a few more details? Is it upfront, or over the course of multiple emails and chats? It really sounds worth checking into, if there are in fact non-sleazy pay-sites. Initially you receive any emails to your rsvp account, and you get one month to send messages back ... |

| Does anyone have a particular website to suggest? Perhaps more advice? I would recommend using a website that's relatively local (ie. specifically in your state or country). I would guess that the international ones are a bit dodgy. I wouldn't use one that was totally free as they just tend to attr... |

| I don't like them, but that's just how I feel (I know I have issues with affection). I don't expect everyone else in the world to agree or stop showing affection in public. I've always been uncomfortable if I have had a partner try to kiss, cuddle, hold hands or anything like that in front of other ... |

| Overall, I liked your profile, it's quirky and funny. my suggestions are * change the primary profile photo to either the one of you hugging a snowman or the one where you are wearing a blue t-shirt. Better to have a profile photo where you are smiling, good natured & quirky is a better first im... |
