I came here by accident.
I stayed because someone said there was a buffet.
Wish I could find it...I'm still looking for the free drinks I saw the other day.
Seriously? I floundered on the site in an insomniac daze and thought  I'll give it a try. I was amazed by how easy it all was to get started. I came back the next day, not really expecting much, and had mail. So this got me curious and I started exploring...
and I found these amazing, beautiful people here sharing their lives with each other in bits and pieces and with such grace and humor I was enchanted.
I may not ever find true love, or even a reasonable facsimile, but each day I can come here and find a smile, or a sad moment, and I know I'm not alone out here anymore.
And that...is a wonderful thing.

I do however believe in Quantum Physics - Raised consciousness brings matter into being where there was once only energy.
That is Most Definitely NOT what Quantum Physics is all about! That is more like Quantum Metaphysics.

Oh this is a good question. On and off for three years I have been on these dating sites. I might stay a week or two or for a couple of months. But I have found that so many men do not mean what they write. They think they know but when they find it they either run or hide. A lot just like playing the game. Found out that the more they write the better they get at it and get so caught up in writting to several women that they do not want to stop and realize why he was there in the first place. I am a very loving, kindhearted, passionate, romantic, woman. I trust what people tell me because I would never think of not being honest and upfront with anyone. Will to my surprise there are a lot that do not think like I do. So what am I leaving with - nothing except disappointment in men. But you know I keep coming back because surely there is one honorable man out there. So deep down inside there is that little bit of hope that I too will find that great guy that is just as crazy about me as I am of him. As we get older we realize that life is short and should be enjoyed by two. But for now I am leaving with a good bye. I think I will hang up my dancing shoes like so many others and howl at the moon for a while. lol

I just came here for the beer.
Buuuuuurrrrrrrpppp!
Honestly?
I have no idea how I stumbled on this place but I'm glad I did.
Wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for but stumbled across some nice people.
Got in to a debate with Caster.... was fun.
(tho I admitt... now.... his facts were better than mine... LOL)
Been in an argument in the past 24 hours...... but I was only goofing on YA!!
But I've also made some people spew diet Dr Pepper on their monitor by just being myself
No real plans on leaving this place as of yet.
But I'm hoping to slow down my posting a bit.
Mainly because ..... mainly because???
Mainly because it's none of y'alls business why!!!
I CAN tell y'all I feel truely blessed for stumbling across this stupid little site and will convey my "first kiss" to all here.
Yeah even to what's her name

Not leaving yet, as I just started here, but I have no illusions. People come here, I think, to hopefully find the needle in the haystack...of course, the haystack with that needle just right for you may be 1,500 miles away, and then what do you do? I think it's similar to lotto but maybe, hopefully, more fun along the way. I suspect it's not harmful, unless it keeps us from living a real life away from a computer screen.

I have been on another dating site before this.
I have not been here for a long time. I did come here with eyes wide open.
Some mantras I keep repeating:
*Hope for the best, expect the worst - anything in between will not surprise you.
*Do not go where you are not invited, and do not stay where you are not welcome.
*People come and go in your life for one of three things - a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
*The simplest way to start a conversation is 'Hi'.
I came here mainly to enjoy life, share some laughs and some deep thoughts. I have read wonderful posts, and ones that make me go huh?!
I came here because I was invited by someone.
I have found new friends, and embraced new ways of thinking and seeing other perspectives in life. I have learned.
I am heading in a postive direction (aka maybe, someday, somewhere, sometime I will meet the 'one' for me).
My dreams have not yet been fulfilled. My journey has just begun. I remain optimistic.

i'm relatively new here....but a number of you have made me feel at home. I'm starting to recognize some of your names and faces and i feel like i'm making some friends here....which is what i was hoping for in the first place. I came with no expectations of meeting someone here and developing a romance. If that happens it would be awesome. But if all i make here are some new friendships, isn't that more than when i first started?
Don't go, gonesailingbabe......you are a bright light for more than a few of us!

I have absolutely no idea how I even ended up here at DHU about a month ago. I have learned more about myself and relationships thru the forums and groups then I ever got thru individual therapy and marriage counseling. I have also regained my sense of humor that disappeared during 25 years of marriage.
I came in with no preconceived ideas about to expect, and maybe some hope of actually finding a woman to go out with. That hasn't happened yet, maybe it will maybe it won't, but in any case just being able to hang out with all of you has been a great experience
