Yes I think people are less shy online than they would be if they met offline. I don't know if this is good or bad.

Even if you are average to above average then you should get plenty of responses.

How can you be shy online? They are not even in your home!

True.

I should add that the 5 that contacted me the longest message I had was 3 sentences. But when I write I write a lot. Go figure. It's very disappointing to think you have a lot in common with someone and they don't write back. It tells me there is a lot of competition out there.

I think it gets tougher as you age. I'm 56.

I just meant that it seems like people have more courage online than they would offline.

Well, the thing is that if you any ethnicity but Caucasian then you are at disadvantage. I have seen women say that they only want Caucasian guys to contact them. Some Black women only like White guys. There are lot of Cubans in Miami. You should get Hispanic guys messaging you and also Blacks.
