I had one girl respond and chat with me a while. Finally got enough info to find her on the Google and Facebooks. Turns out she had just had a baby and was engaged. Be careful out there HC

No, but I was very selective. Like Cherry said I would google them. I also spoke with them on the phone once or twice before meeting.

One of the men I ended up dating for awhile told me about a woman who he dated exclusively for a year. He was thinking about asking her to marry him. He decided to introduce her to his mother. His Mom didn't care for her, but didn't want to say anything. He was a former asst. DA and now a partner in a law firm. Not once did he check into anything about her. Blinded by beauty I suppose. Long story short, his mother hired someone to check her background. She said she had never been married. She had been divorced 3 times. Said she had her masters (can't remember in what) Never been to college. The name he knew her by was not her real name and his mother found out she was a scammer. Had an arrest record. Anyway, he was happy his mother went behind his back and checked things out.

I was shocked he got back online.

I talked to one guy to get enough of his info. Said he went to high school with me. Found his full name in yearbook. Googled him. Turned out he was a registered sex offender.

Never had a bad experience on tinder, dated one girl from there for Half a year, we had lot of mutual friends and check me out with them and they said nothing but good stuff about me.

Recently went on a road trip to Ohio, and I was matching with beautiful women left and right. Lots from Ohio State, Nashville,TN, LSU, and Ole Miss...and all I get in Houston is well... Not women that are my type

I'm sure you'll be fine HC. Just be selective and make sure you can verify who they are.

Be the predator, or become the prey.

I'll try and at least be assertive, although that's been difficult. I've quickly learned this is not the most important thing to do with my time. Fishing is. This dating thing is just for fun and maybe someone will get pregnant from it.

Being a female in today's society, you almost have to stalk these people to make sure they are who they say they are.

FWIW, I have a good friend that ended marrying a good guy, found on match. A family member did the same, and found the same.

For me, I tried it once years ago. The lady was very attractive, agreed to do lunch. Picked her up where she worked at a government job.

The posted photo had to have been at least ten years old. This gal had a ton of wrinkles from being in the sun. As we dined and conversed, she didn't like anything she ordered, not even tomatoes in her salad. As she kept talking, I could tell it was nothing like the 2-3 telephone conversations.

End of story, never tried that route again

To my disappointment, I believe I was matched with a scam. I asked what her interests were and the response was "I'm here for two weeks here's my number if you wanna have fun 570-###-####"

I imagine that's a lie. What yall want me to ask next?

Just casually ask where's the best place to buy ice in bulk, and later, how much a kidney goes for.

Not a bad idea, but I imagine these POS people have their system down and would respind. I'm going to do some investigation and see if I can track the number to an individual.

Several. These are trolls trying to scam money. They will say they are in Nigeria or something on business and can't get home or something like that. Even use the same intros over and over.
Lots of them specifically look for widowers. I had "Sugar 4 You" in Chicago (yes, her screen name) and various others wanting to meet me - that was on Match. Not much of it on OurSilverTime.com.
