I have been doing net dating for a while now and I have not met anyone who rocks my boat - I have thought about speed dating, and will do it eventually. I am not really keen on meeting people out as there is always alcohol involved and it is too loud (!) my friends are all coupled up and I am just sick of being single (28 years old and nice to look at etc).. what am I doing wrong?

I met my boyfriend of nearly a year on Yahoo personals.
Unfortunately i first had to get past all the idiots first. A lot of the guys i spoke to just wanted to meet up and have sex. My boyfriend was different, we spent almost three months just talking, getting to know each other before we met in person. We took it one step at a time, didn't rush into anything. I couldn't be happier.
So there is hope, you just have to stick at it. i mean I was about to give up looking for some when i met my boyfriend. So just enjoy your own life doing what you want to do, and you will meet someone trust me, i did!

As a 'chappie' and someone who has tried the net dating and it worked for me as im still with the same girl for 10 months i can only give you my advice.
1. Go on the dates and just enjoy them instead of thinking 'this is the one' as you will have more fun.
2. Us 'chappies' have the same problem... its not just women.
3. As you seem sick of being single you might come across as desperate which is never appealing.
4. You say that nobody has rocked your boat but you might not have rocked anyones boat either as you might have given off the wrong desperate signals.
Ive got others i could put down but i might start to make myself go to sleep

You're looking for them, that's what you're doing wrong.
Go out and act as though you're not interested in finding a bloke and you will seem like a whole different person.
If this doesn't work, try moving the goalposts a little with regards your 'ideal man' and then see what happens.

They porbably think your already taken. Make a point of making sure they over hear that you are single and that you havent been to the cinema, restaurant or beach in years and that your still on the prwol gor 'Mr. Right'. Or why not approachthem, whats stopping you?

There are nice chaps all around you!
The easiest way to find one is probably to get an interest whch others share, and meet socially in a structured way to begin with.
Dating follows on from this when you are good and ready.

i really can't answer your question, i have been thinking to become single for a while, so started valuating men around me and those who re hitting on me. u know, i came to the conclusion that the first person answering here is right - men re like parking spaces - the best one re taken immediately. so i really don't know where u can find a good man, cos i am breaking my head at the same dilemma. so maybe i shouldn't become single?

you are looking to hard. people lie online just to get to you. it sucks, i know. someone will find you. hey ive got the same problem just im i dude looking for a chica. ive given up on web dating. all the girls on there are wierd. and just remember that there are plenty of guys looking who arent on those sites. just be patient and try to have some fun while you are waiting.

As a "chappie", I can say that we too have the same problems!!
I found that you will end up finding someone when you arent actually looking! Annoying, but true!!
Good luck in your search

What you're doing wrong is:
1st. you are seeming way to desprate
2nd. you are looking for your mr. right.... just find some sort of relationship and deal with it. you will never know who you'll fall in love with!!!

it's really hard to find the real love by net. why don't you just go out somewhere?
personally, i'm often surrounded by guys because i'm studying a profession that mostly only guys choose to study. it's so much fun..
