It seems no matter what app or dating site I use with little exception I'm seeing the same damn faces over and over, either people I've already dated, gone out with or messaged before and got a "thanks but no thanks" some of these women I saw their adds online consistently for years. POF and OKC seems to think they are possible matches because of shared interests And I would agree but sadly most of them did not.


As soon as I add my search filters BAM!!! the same 20-30 people pop up with maybe a 1 or 2 new ones every few months who moved here from somewhere else.



And its not like my search filters are all that strict I'm open to any race almost any age(15 years either direction but I list 20 just in case because I've seen much older women I find attractive and I would not rule out a woman in her early 20's though I would have to think hard on it.)


I pretty much only filter out women with kids(at home), obese and lives more than 15-20 miles(don't do long distance).

I mean, if you're not willing to date with a wider distance range, then you are going to come across the same people. Although I'd think new people would break up and become single again at any time, no?

yes they do, but i've already contacted, been rejected by or already went out with many of them also.

Looks like those same people are having difficulty too.. if you keep seeing the same ones posting. Theyre probably thinking the same about you and have crossed you off their list also.

Actually I'm cursed with the common situation where My relationships tend to start off great then they start neglecting the relationship I notice and say something about it they claim I'm being needy(even though our behavior was mutual during the honeymoon stage, A stage that does not wear off for me BTW) they break up with me and almost like clockwork they try to get back with me 3 - 4 months later, a few times it was a few weeks later. I just don't go backwards because they have already proven to be unreliable partners.

2 ex's in particular have been trying to get back with me for years but again I can't be with someone who has hurt me like that.

With a little bit of therapy, you'll do just fine. Say about 5 or 6 years.
Maybe a bit longer.

no need to be mean, the fact that the honeymoon don't wear off for me unless something changes you would think would make me a catch.

Stop smothering them.

You have to be cool and hold back your emotions a bit.

As for fishing... try a different spot. Different bait.
