Sveta, thank you for elaborating. I agree, many people are superficial. Some of these types wait forever for a dream that can never be fulfilled. Some men look for the perfect woman and find her, only to discover she is looking for the perfect man. Women do this too.

Personally, I do not listen to the chatter. (Some of it I cannot; men are not allowed!) Some girls speculate or assume; but they are usually incorrect.

In order to catch a certain type of fish, a guy must use a certain type of bait. Sometimes this is frustrating for the fisherman, but patience is needed if he wishes to catch the right fish (and not everything else). Very many wonderful ladies here; not as easy as it may seem to politely look through so many profiles. Takes time and one must read the profiles repeatedly to be fair (to both of you). After you say hello, then requires more time to get to know her. It is not easy to find a girl and try to discover what she is really made of, what motivates her or truly meets her needs. Very, very complicated. (Sometimes easier to build that highway to Hawaii!)

Some girls search for diamonds and discover cut glass; some girls look for a pearl and discover a diamond. All depends on what they are content with. Pearls aren't bad! (Real ones!) From my experience, girls who are satisfied with a pearl are thrilled when they discover a diamond. Girls who insist on diamonds all their lives become easily bored even with diamonds, so when they find a diamond, it's not a big deal (for either of you). Guys who find a special girl who is grateful and appreciative for pearls, will do his best to give her diamonds...even though she does not really require them.

Having wealth does not seem to work everywhere; you know, I miss Tom!
