only 3 blind dates?That definitely didn't work. A lot of people I know tried countless blind dates.It's not easy to find the right one,hence,to try more will help.

I think people build up certain expectations when chatting on line and in their mind they have this image of what they think the person is like,
If when meeting the person is not as they expected something inside of them feels a certain disappointment
I know people this has happened to, the person they finally met was nice looking and had a good job and was really nice but they in their mind were expecting something different so they were "turned off"
I think that most people have a preset image of what the person is going to look like when they meet.
My biggest shock was the man who had no arms.. He had prosthetic 'hooks' and when he asked 'aren't you going to ask me?' I didn't know what to say..
I feel some people nowadays(maybe because of shorter-attention spans) do not give the other's person another shot. Sometimes the chemistry is not always going to develop instantanously, but needs time and nurturing to develop it. At the same time there are people who "clicked" initially but the relationship eventually withered.
I only went on 4 blind dates in my life, one turned out to be married which i only learned as we were driving past him and she screamed absinities at him from the window of the car. One was a psycho that I won't go into detail about but it really irratated me that my friends thought we'd be a good match. One was an easy 300lbs had 3 inches on me and I beleive just wanted a buddy to go with her to the all you can eat places. The last one was the daughter of someone I worked with, boy was that a long night.
None of these were through the internet just friends fixing me up. My opinion on the internet is if your not dating material where you live well.......
I'll do better and give you TWO specific reasons I didn't like my blind date:
1) He talked way too much about his ex, and went into EXPLICIT detail about sex with her.
2) After speaking about his ex for so long, he wanted to talk about the two of us marrying and settling down.
None of my friends who are dating can give me a reason why they did not like any of their dates.
Give us something SPECIFIC about why you did not like the people you meet in a blind date.
Were they really interested oe was this just something they did to get people off their back?
