Talk is cheap. That's is why there is so much of it. Understanding is precious. That's why there is so little. While people always have a lot to say to one another, they don't really have a strong inclination to listen. They talk AT rather than TO one another. They converse but they do not communicate. They rarely say exactly what they mean or mean exactly what they say. A process of constructive dialog with other singles can begin if you take some advice.
If your a genuine single and want to meet others you need total commitment.
When placing personals be honest and state exactly who you would wish to respond.
