Whether it be in the dating or intimate relationship categories, it seems like it's a pretty slow and tedious process to meet someone.

I've only tried it for a few weeks now and haven't had the response I was hoping for (man, these ladies are quite cold).

FYI, it's www.lavalife.com

I tried being on there for a few weeks, gave up when the only approach I got was one who wanted her boyfriend to blow me while she watched.

re:lavalife

I agree, so many women on that service are cold. I did meet someone with whom I had a 6 month relationship. She was in another town - 250km away.It took 3 months of emails & phone calls, but well worth it.
I met a local woman just for sex as well ( after #1 ended).
It takes awhile, and a lot of b.s., but it can work.

Lava... The bain of my existance...

Once upon a time I found Lava... As a personal endevour... Then... A TERB member discoved I had a profile and thought it was a work thing...

Now... If and when I dare to go on... I have to wonder who out there see's my posts as well...

But I will say this... Lava is damn fun... You just have to find the right girl.

Being single, i have used lavalife in the past, and may or may not try it again.

Generally, the website is inhabibited by some real pieces of work.

The odds of finding a girlfriend on lavalife are slim to zero.

I am sure there are some decent women on there, but...

Most of the chicks on there are on hallucinogenic drugs. They all seem to think that they are truly going to meet a john f kennedy jr. I kid you not. They figure that even though they haven't met him yet, they won't give up trying. I wish i had a dime for every time i read, "I won't settle"

I always figure, well baby, i hope you know you are going to be single for the rest of your life.

I have now met four women. One was pretty cool, the others were completely without substance.

The last one i met was a complete piece of work. On one hand, mid 30's, 5-4, fit, intelligent, on the other hand, unemployed, doesn't drive, had a lazy eye problem, and turned out to be a serial dater.

By that i mean that she was dating 2 sometimes 3 guys a day looking for the best candidate. (JFK jr.)

Me, i don't have the energy for this. Then again, i work.

Good luck, you are going to need it.

Thanks guys...

You put the idea in my head again!

ACK... Why do I even log on to that site...

Come one over and suck my cock baby... (Yeah I'll jump right on that one buddy!)

LOL

Honestly though there are some really nice guys there. I have met a couple... Before it was out in the industry that I play there... Now I just jump on and chat when I tire of the other chats... Good luck on your searches guys...

For those that had problems at lavalife.....just what is it you were looking for there. I personally have found it a great place to get laid and have tried to keep it quiet...lol.......actually I figured no one would believe the luck I am having there.......it is just a different approach to things as opposed to escorts or mp's. it is not always immediate and sometimes it is actually very inexpensive.......and you do get the gfe...but you don't always know if the other person is qsycho or not.

Best of luck to those that try and to those that failed .....hey try again

Open your eyes ...

I didn't look at the link, but I'm assuming Lavalife is something like the program Tom Cruise signed up for in Vanilla Sky

I found it was a lot of girls at work talking to fill time and you could never get anyones attention without being Mr. 1 liner.

So curious as to what the other side was doing I took a pic off a site put in private portfolio ..little racey but not porno and said the usually stuff with made up name and....OMG....my instant messages and mailbox was stuffed and that is when I said fu*k this ..the good looking ones are overwhelmed..try it you will see

I did the same thing as johnyboy.

I cropped a clean photo of a babe from a website and made up a stupid ad.

First i placed it in the intimate encounters section. Within 30 minutes, i was buried under hundreds of instant messages. (no word of a lie.)

Almost the same response in relationships.

Though i did also notice that after about half an hour the number of messages fell way off. Either gus got pissed that i was't messaging them back or i was too far down the list.

The other thing i noticed that i would log off (my fake chick) and yet, when i would log on the system with my regular ID, fake chick was still there for as much as an hour later.

Obviously, they want the guys to think there are scads of women on there and there are not.

This to me is quite the little scam set up they have programmed into their software on purpose i am sure.

I didn't really think about searching for MILF's. I tend to avoid them, but hey, that's a cool strategy to get laid.

This doesn't surprise me. Years ago before they changed their name I tried their phone setup.

Two weird things:

1. They had staff monitoring calls (as in listening to them).

2. I think that they had women leave bogus messages in order to ensure the highest burn rate of paid time.

While I might appear paranoid, there were a number of incidents that led me to believe these things.

Obviously it works for some people but the signal to noise ratio seems too low to me.

Lavalife and its previous life

When Lavalife was a telephone dating service known as Telepersonals it was really good,after a while of learning how to weed out the ones that were unsuitable I met some fantastic women on it,had some great times and had some terrific sex as well..........How did it turn out?? I met the woman Im now married to!!
