writes:I have been single for 10 years. (aged 33) I have found it difficult meeting guys so I have been trying internet dating on and off for years. I am getting very concerned that I am going to remain single long term. My concerns are from arranging dates with guys from these sites and they take one look at me and make it clear they are not interested and don't find me at all attractive. I know I am not stunning but I thought I was quite attractive. I am in good shape and take care with my appearance. I look like my photos on these websites so I don't see why they are not attracted to me when meeting face to face but are when they viewed my profile. I have become so depressed as I feel that in order not to remain single I will have to date guy I am not attracted to.

 Internet dating is not easy,i have been doing it myself since i started using the Internet in 1999. I arranged a blind date with a girl i had no idea what she looked lime though i let her know how i was gonna dress up. After waiting for her at the meeting point for over 4 hours,i realized she had stood me up and when i called her,she told me she came around ,saw me but didn't like my hair style.This didn't make my world come to an end and am a good looking guy as well.
Am telling you this so that you may know it is perfectly normal for someone to meet you for the first time and then you never see them again. It is better they show you their true colors earlier than later.
Can you imagine meeting someone and he falsely shows interest in you,leads you on only to dump you when you least expect it.
When you are out there,try to be yourself and do not go expecting too much. Go with the assumption that you are going out there to make a new friend and not a soul mate and this will help you not to get disappointed.
Do not rush for someone you are not attracted to as this will mean throwing away your happiness.
Take a little more time,there is someone special out there for you.
