Six years ago, I created a profile on match.com and I had several great dates from guys I found on that site. I found a doctor at that time and he was 36 year old at that time. I didn't contact him at the time because he was a little too old for me at the time.
Well, six years later, I went back to match.com because I recently became available again.
I found this doctor and obviously he is still there on match.com

I contacted him and very quickly got a reply. I told him that I remembered him six years ago and obviously, he did not have much luck on this site, I also asked him some general questions here and there. He told me the reason he did not find anybody on this site is because he was way too picky. He said none of the dates progressed to date three.

Well, he sounds like a gentleman, but I am afraid he has some underlying issues he did not disclose. How can you be on a dating site and all the women you've seen cannot even pass the third dates. Am I wasting my time for even continuously talking to him? Your thoughts thanks

Nothing ventured nothing gained.

You'll have to "try him" to find out.

Maybe he's the one, who knows?

Try him out. Maybe you're the right match for him, you never know. Or maybe there's some big, secret flaw. Either way, let us know.

Maybe the ones he's been with weren't compatible.

You have to try the shoe to see if it fits.

if you connect with him, why don't you treat him as a friend and see where it goes from there? sometimes people's dating issues aren't as obvious as they seem, who knows it may even be understandable. similarly, just because he hasn't developed a LTR from match.com doesn't mean he is defective. the reality is that men on that site are at a distinct disadavantage since the girl-to-guy ratio disproporationately favors women as selecting from a very large pool of available guys, and based solely on profile presenation, not a real life meeting.

You actually remember his profile from 6 years ago? Strange. Keep your guard up, he might be a player. Just sayin' him being a "doctor" guarantees desperate women on dating sites are flocking to him like flies on sh*t

What city is he in? Trust me. It makes a massive difference.

If he is in New York and he cannot find a woman who is a keeper, something is wrong with him. Match.com is 60% women in his age group in New York City. If he is in San Diego, Denver, or Phoenix, where match.com is 60% men....the dude is pretty much screwed.

Are you sure he's been on the site continuously for six years? I don't get why people don't think that other people can leave the site and return like they did. Instead they're always like, you're STILL here?

To his credit, at least he honestly admitted he's been there for 6 years when he could have said he left and came back like you did. I say unless your Spidey senses are all over this telling you to run meet him.
