The women take a lot of crap from idiot men who ruin it for the rest of us who can actually spell and hold an intelligent conversation. And there are some of the most ignorant, mind numbingly shallow women out there too. The only process that works is the one that works for you... There are tips, far to many to go into, but this one will save you the most important thing: MONEY!

One tip to live by: If you do decide to meet any of these women... Make sure you specify going Dutch for the first few meetings (at least), as it is seemingly the game for women to get out and have a good time without any investment, except for their time.

I have been on several sites over the last 5 years, between two 1.5 year relationships. (One on yahoo personals, and the other that I actually met in person! How odd!) In this time, there are those women who actually "get it", (thank you ladies), who know to chip in and just be considerate... whether they feel chemistry or not.

The other class: The princesses, or the C U Next Tuesdays that are all about filling their calendars for drinks and being out to get away from kids, or to just be able to interact with a male and mingle without cutting into their budgets. They save that for girls nights, but they are scamming that night too for the moron who buys them drinks all night! So to those wonderful ladies: "You're pathetic and sad!"

Problem with the latter is that those women are rarely ever ready to actually be there mentally in the date, as they are bruised, battered, and still hate their ex. It doesn't change the fact that you just dropped $100 on dinner and drinks for an absent-minded divorcee trying to drown her sorrows in an escape attempt that you end up springing for. I am very observant, but I am not rude. I have even experinemted and left the check sitting there while we talk, just to see. They either fumble with their keys, go to the bathroom, take an "important" call, whatever they can do to run from a financial obligation to the evening. So I ended up picking up the tab, because of the way I was reared. This is also why I specify this now before dates. It will weed out the freeloaders, and will un-skew the lines.

(So before I get a rebuttal about this... These dates are decided on mutually, and input is given on both sides. They are sometimes asked for by me first, and sometimes by the female.So me asking them out obligates me to pay the tab is a load of ****!)

So, make sure that you get that out in the open very early. It is better than getting stiffed by a literal stiff only to figure out in person that they aren't ready to be anything but a friend who expects you to take them out and make them forget their pain. Frankly I would rather invest in a warm towel and some lotion...

Incidentally, most recently I found a young sexy female on Match and she ROCKS... It is a crapshoot. But she is amazing. This site, I give it about 2 out of 5. I feel it is more social than dating, but each to their own.

Chris - Thank you for mentioning the part about going Dutch on the first date. I can't stress STRONGLY ENOUGH how much it means to me if a guy is OK with this. No, we aren't trying to emasculate you. No, we aren't trying to keep you at arm's length. The fact of the matter is, we are women, you are men, and some of us women have had really bad experiences with men saying that we "owed" them because they bought us a drink/dinner/etc. We don't KNOW you, and it's a safety precaution on our parts (just like meeting in a public place).

I am contemplating going back on OKC. I deactivated my profile after months of messages that were either 3 page long screeds, or nothing but "hi" or "hello." If I did find something in between the two, either the guy emailed me back and forth and never wanted to meet up, or else we did make plans to meet up which got cancelled. It got really boring and frustrating. I did meet one nice guy, but he kept putting himself down constantly, which really turned me off.

It's more hook up than social.
