A Bunny is one of the hardest find on this planet and I get tired of looking

Poor you. Time to move up to women 50 plus since no one under that age seems to give you the time of day.

Guess those honeys under 30 'ain't interested.'

Men of 34/35 *in your case* will have to temper their expectations. When there are so many mature and normal men under 35, (and over) you really have to ask yourself WHY you continue to struggle with your social relationships.

Perhaps you have some sort of autism. I think this may explain some of your social issues.

Speaking of online dating, I just had a strange thing happen. I joined Match.com recently and exchanged a couple of messages with a woman but when I sent my last message she didn't respond for four days but then sent a message just a few minutes ago. She said she was sorry she didn't get back to me sooner but she'd been busy. The thing I find strange about that is the fact that this particular website tells you when a member has been active. I looked at her activity over the last several days and several times it said she'd been active within the last hour or the last twenty four hours, etc. So what I'm thinking is that she had multiple contacts with various guys and gradually weeded them out so now she's sending me a message. There's actually nothing wrong with that so don't take it the wrong way it just made me realize what a competitive thing online dating really is. Now she's asking about restaurants in my area so I will respond and it would be interesting to meet her, it's just that I find this whole process to be frustrating and I'll be the first to admit that I'm oversensitive. It's too bad that the simple act of meeting a compatible woman is so difficult. I wonder if women who are trying to meet men online have the same frustrations that I do.

That's a huge affirmative. I finally quit b/c men IRL seem to be more attracted to me than the ones online and I had stuff like guys wanting to know my bra size. (online I mean--no one ever asks me that to my face, lol)

Yes we do! I had something similar happen - took a guy a week to email me back even though he had been online during that time. However he did acknowledge that he was slow and apologized...I know I forget about emails sometimes so at this point what's the harm in giving him a shot? You have to have a little tougher skin when online dating I think.
