Hello Melissa,
Thankyou for replying. I have pruned the followups to 3 newsgroups.
Your pages look even better with a graphic browser :-)

Thats what I meant to allude to when I wrote above "and not just email."
Your email pages are excellent I think.

The thing is/was that I have been on another personals site for as long as
they have been in existence. I have received quiete a few 'hits' if I can
call them that. But the odds of any of them developing into physical real
world friendships/relationships have been substantially reduced by the fact
that said site is predominantly a US or world site. Most of the ladies were
on average 15,000 km or miles (at that distance the units were meaningless).

Eventually I began to develop this frustration with many email
'relationships' not eventuating into anything physical. You know, there were
times when I would have liked to have gone out to the park, or beach, or
dinner, or movie, or dance  - on the odd occasion with someone nice.

Anyway, all is not lost. One lady has been working very hard for the last year
or so, and she is reeling me in with surprising tenacity.

I don't hate it. It's just that I would like to see if I could be friends
with a person first of all, before I even respond to eg "SWF looking for long
term relationship." I dont find it at all amazing that many women have a lot
more courage than I in willing to dive straight into the deep end.

Dont have an ISP :-(
rmit forbids running non-course related software (thats gonna be my line
anyway). And I tried.

Things are developing so fast.
I don't know if I get loyal due to a bout of guilt,
or I'm just chickening out again.
I think I'll take a raincheck on this.

But I'm sure that others should and would respond.

WAIT! Its just >>friends<< right!? Okay I will email you with the details.

Here's what I meant by a Friends section:

Those looking for people with similar interests, so they can share those
interests as moments together in person. Eg those who just wanna share a
concert ticket with someone.

They would most likely meet in cyberspace by email or irc or ICQ, but really
what they want is someone in physical company within about a week, and
probably sooner. Email romance would still have a life of its own.

Friends should not have expectations of marriage, or sex, or dress up dates,
or commitments, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if they will lead to those
things with a higher percentage.

> Simple as that.

Yes it is. Thankyou again Melissa for your work and response.
