well, I could try that. That's a good idea. But I find it hard to really gage something when it's just coffee and the conversation is casual, I mean, that's how it would normally be with a date date, right? but maybe they could tell me something I may be missing in myself.

I think moving soley to find a relationship is a really terrible idea. Especially if you're happy here otherwise. I have two girlfriends who recently met really nice guys who want relationships using online dating. They're out there! Having a group of girlfriends to hang out with and staying busy really help me focus less on feeling upset about being single. Don't give up, the right guy is out there for you. If you ever want to meet up for drinks let me know! Us single girls have to stick together!
But, there are just no woman my type or so few of them in my state alone. BUt I also wanna move on for life and experience reasons, the woman thing is a big bonus along with it, for me anyway. I'm just having the worst time with when and how is my issue
well, a guy who is single and wanting a relationship with the right woman. for starters! A man open to dating that may lead to something more provided we're compatible.

Well, if we're going to talk in stereotypes here, men may like how supermodels look, but most don't care for how supermodels act--spoiled, arrogant, unappreciative and insecure.
Unless the guy is a player A type douche and or a Jersey Guido type, then the personalities just match perfectly.

That's how MEANINGFUL relationships are started. You get to know the person in the general sense and see if you can pick up and feel any "chemistry" and "attraction" on a personal as well as physical level. If however, your not, then the first time easy date is an easy, comfortable way to find out the initial interest and attraction of the opposite party and an idea of there lifestyle and way of thinking. If its a no go in your book at that point, say "Thanks for meeting up, it was a pleasure to meet you, however I feel its best if see other people" and just end it pure and simple, no strings attached, no major amount of time or money lost.
where exactly is this senior home? ha ha just kidding! I am getting tired of the jerks!!

yes, but I can only drink so much coffee!!! I do all this stuff you mention, casual conversation, see if there's a connection, etc etc.

This isn't asking for much. Sad that something so basic is so hard to find.
Someone posted that they found a guy through Match.com and had an affair that lasted about 2 months, and after that, he disappeared. I've heard a lot of stories like that about Match. The guys go on there just to play women. They get what they want, then move on to the next woman. Either that, or you get businessmen who don't have time for a relationship. They want to find something quickly and easily, but they're not around enough to maintain a relationship.
not sure I know what you mean, but I feel things backfire on me, if I seem like I need a man, ok that's desparate, if I seem independent, then I seem cold and not worth knowing. I can't win!

Litterally every mans dream, whether you realize it or not, is a beautiful woman who needs him, and needs him badly.
Forget about what vibe you are sending. If you look like Megan Fox you can send the "brain dead vibe", the "need marriage now" vibe, or the "i will follow you around like a puppy dog" vibe.
Men will come crawling. And want to reward you for your great taste in needing them.
