Why do women of all ages...?

seem more interested in being asked out, in being contacted in personals sites, than in actually meeting someone?

I've noticed that women often list "minimum height 5'10", for example, and they're 5'2". What advantage is there in coming up to some guy's belly button, when you could look him in the eyes?

Is it that they think men lie on their profiles? (I don't)

Is it that they set these criteria thinking that they are such hot stuff? (Hi. I make $10,000, but I want a man to make $75,000 or more.)

Oh, and they want a man who makes a lot of money, but who can spend all his time with them. Wha?

Anyway, I've tried all kinds of dating sites and met a few women (many of whom, by the way, also lie: for instance, "average" means "fat;" "curvy" means "fat." Even "athletic" might mean "I was a cheerleader back in the Jurassic period, but now I'm fat."

Where is a regular, normal woman who doesn't smoke, isn't married, and isn't fat? Is that too much to ask? Send your site. I'm 56.

    First, I have tried several sites. Second, it only took me two weeks to learn NOT to be naive. I'm sorry but, some people lie and you can't stop it. You have to be very choosy and very cautious. However, I have NEVER lied and I DID find my soulmate. BTW...I AM 5'3", said I was "average" (124 lbs) and was looking for someone UNDER 5'10". I've had money and lost money. I've had everyTHING I could want but, now I have everything I NEED. I can support myself and realize that money is not every thing. LOVE is what I wanted. I get your point about being eye to belly! LOL. Don't be in such a hurry and remember...not everyone lies.
