    Messages matter more than days in my opinion.

    If you've sent 50 messages, get on that.

      They love to chat with you, agree to a date (including a day) and then suddenly disappear. It's my biggest complaint.

      Honestly that is what you're gonna get from free sites. Many don't take it seriously.

      I will always say that most women on free dating sites are on it to see what kind of returns they can get. They are not in it to actually find someone.

      At least I've had dates from OKC.

      I paid for a year of eHarmony and never had a woman respond to any request for communication, I ended up getting a free year out of it, and in two years on that site I had 1 person respond and that was someone whom didn't pay and talked to me during the free communication weekend.

        In about 28 hours we have already exchanged 50 messages, and she made first contact so I figure she is pretty interested.
        I would've asked for her number already. If the conversation is good I usually ask after 4 or 5 messages.

          Wow. That's ridiculous. Glad OKC is working out better. I tried eHarmony once upon a time ago and didn't really like the interaction on it.

            Yeah, and it's not like I'm in the middle of no where. I'm in the middle of NJ, I had my thing set wide enough to cover all of NJ, the 5 Boroughs of NY, and Philly, and apparently not woman in that area was interested on eHarmony.

              I met my wife on eHarmony!

                I started messaging this one girl on a Sunday, we hungout on that following Wednesday. We are dating now. You just have to get the number, go from there.

                  It ultimately depends on the girl. Some are comfortable exchanging numbers after 4-5 messages and some hold off for a bit.

                    Well luckily I didn't wait to long. Got a date tomorrow. My first OKC date. I am hoping it isn't really a man.

                      Turns out the one girl I've been pining for, asked me out for a date tomorrow. We've been talking the last two days, and earlier tonight she asked me if I wanted to go out tomorrow.

                            Nothing to bad. Made plans with chick this afternoon, then she text me earlier tonight and said she had gone on a date tonight and they really hit it off so she bailed on me. It could of been worse, she didn't string me along and make me waste money on dinner and driving to meet her tomorrow night. Saved me $50 at least.

                              Oh that's a bummer, but at least she was open and honest about it. Nothing you can do.

                              I was thinking that your comment might have had something to do with the "I am hoping it isn't really a man" part of your previous post lol. Glad to hear that wasn't the case.

                                Lmao I forgot I had put that. Ya it wasn't a big deal. I'd take her out in the future if it didn't work out and I got nothing else going on.
