@Sassafras54: I'd like to think of myself as a truthful individual, and I know that holding back information when seeking advice is probably more detrimental than helpful. So if there is something that's wrong with me, chances are that I don't know of it. As for real world vs eH, I'm trying both avenues in hopes of finding other women, only reason why I continue to use eH is to see if there's any women that I haven't found yet.

@TXButtercup: I do have photos posted on my eH profile, and I've initiated conversation with the eH matches I receive, just that I find that none of them (or very seldomly) return with any communication at all.





Those two pics were taken of me just this month.

Thanks again for the feedback so far, it's been helpful.

Well, it isn't the pictures. You have a nice smile and one of the biggest complaints I hear from women is guys not smiling in their photos. The close up one looks a bit fuzzy on here, but I am figuring that is just the resizing - hopefully it is sharper on your page.

Though I do note the edge of a motorcycle in one -- which apparently can either be a turn on or turn off for women. Is it yours?

Both men and women report low rates of return in terms of people responding, so it seems to be a numbers game. My personal experience is that there are many inactive profiles and some folks just don't pay as much attention as others. As a result, I respond to everyone that contacts me and do not leave them hanging even if it doesn't seem we are going to hit it off. Some of them take incredibly long times to respond, but it doesn't really bother me because I couldn't keep up anyway if all were talking at once. How on earth would I have time to play here?

So keep working all the avenues and keep positive (this is most important because if you ever start believing all women are this or that or just evil....well, it does come through in conversations and tone)
