Also, try to read the OP well before commenting.

OP, I'm glad that you're making great strides and maintaining a positive attitude. If you continue to be patient with yourself and introspect, all these experiences will prepare you well for that special person you seek.

All the best!
Wrong assumption

Why don't you just tell me the name of the dating website ?
Thx for answering the other question.

Remember to keep your head up looking and talking to her eyes.

Thanks for the nice word. I initiated contact with a message, mentioned something in their profile that caught my eye. Made a funny quip about something as well (i'm pretty witty, so this comes quite easy to me, though I can see how this would be difficult for some people). I also made sure to ask at least one question so the person has something definite to say if they wanted to reply back.

If I got a reply, I responded to what they had to say and then immediately made it known that I would like to meet up. None of this message back and forth for weeks nonsense. I wanted to strike while the iron was hot. Their response indicated that they were interested in me, so I wanted to take it to the next level before some other guy comes along and does the same thing.

I don't have the stats in front of me now, but I would say I got a 20% response rate to my initial message. Of that 20%, probably a third of them responded positively to my first date requests. So yeah, it's a tough game out their for the guys, but if you put in enough effort and persistence things can definitely happen.
