[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] "Feeling it" and "sparks" right off the bat are terrible predictors of a good relationship.[/quote]

Yet “no spark” or “no chemistry” is the message you’ll get after countless first dates. Oh well![/quote]

[b]TBH, I think the “no spark” line really just means the person isn’t attracted to you. I know everyone on DCUM is big on second and even third dates to find that elusive spark, but for me, if I didn’t even feel a modicum of attraction to the person after first meeting them, it was never going to happen - it’s just how I’m wired. No amount of great conversation ever changed that for me. Not saying the guy had to be actor-good looking, but there had to be a threshold level of attractiveness there. I stopped wasting guys’ time (and mine) on pointless second and third dates after I realized this fact about myself.[/b]

To answer your question OP, it took about 18 months of online dating in my mid 30s to find my husband. Not sure how many first dates, but a LOT. [/quote]

If a dude is ugly inside and out, no need to dig deep and try to find gold that’s not there.[/quote]
