Finding the right one

After being on this site for a couple of months there are a few things that I wish to discuss.
It is only natural that we find attraction with ours eyes first and our hearts second. I have encountered several people that want to find a mate so much, that they want to skip getting to know each other. I believe that everyone joins this site for the same reason. To find their soul mate, lifes partner, and love of their life. I know that after many years of not having a significant other in my life, I have come to realize that I miss that very much. This site may not produce the relationship I yearn for. But I am here to find out.


To me communications are everything. If the people are in such a dire hurry that they do not wish to get to know the people they are attracted to, how will they know for sure they have found the right mate. If communications do not go great and in harmony, I will quickly lose interest. I am already divorced and lonely, so why would I want to go down that path again. I want harmony and hope the next person I hold dearest to my heart is until death do us part.


I can not speak for all, but some issues I have found with profiles are as follows. I want to find my mate based on who I truly am. Not a batch of pictures that were taked by a professional that glamorize me and present me to be something that I am not. I have the utmost respect for the people I have reviewed that show pictures that are true to who they are. I personally wish to get to know someone through the communications we have with letters first. There is a lot to be learned with the responses we have to each other. The old saying that opposites attract, is not what I am seeking. I seek the person that makes me whole, and that I make whole. I also appreciate current pictures. It takes away the wasted time spent wondering what the other person really looks like. If we are not honest with the information we post, them everything about us is based on non truths. Not the kind of relationship I am seeking. Trust is free. But once it is broken it can never be retrieved.
I know I can be narrow minded. It is one of my faults but I can live with that. As I stated before. The eyes lead and the heart follows. I have entered into my profile what I am interested in as a basic description. I get a lot of responses from people that do not fit within those basic descriptions. I do realize that I may be overlooking that right person for me but it is one of the risk I am willing to take. Do I respond? I fell compiled as a gentleman to do so. Do I respond with the truth when most of the time the truth is outlined in my reposes on the profile? No, I do not. I do not wish to offend anyone.
I look forward to responses to this post. It is never to late to learn and grow. I am totally open to that process.
With best wishes and wariest regards,
Gerald
