Online dating has become the tool for the type of people looking for the needle in haystack. A fun-to-look-at-face has as much importance as someone having a good career to many of the people dwelling in the online dating world. These are the reasons online dating is a pain in the @$$. This is why I feel badly for genuine online daters.

With the dating mentality we are seeing online, there is no wonder the divorce rate is 60%. Requirements like a big income and a prestigous job are man-made characteristics. Man-Made characteristics cannot hold a relationship for more than 5 years. A person looking for someone with over the top good looks is probably the most stupid requirement of all. Several years ago I was in a committed relationship with a woman who resembled Ginger Grant (the actress on Giligan's Island). The whole relationship was a huge ego boost at first. Everyone I knew was very envious. Then I started hearing rumors, about people I knew plotting to steal her from my side. (This behavior just makes a person cling to their partner, not because of insecurity but just to spite the plotters. No one ever wants to be trumped, the relationship becomes a game.) This kind of reaction was a high but the high will always crash. After several months she just looked like a normal person, from my point of view. The aura of good looks doesn't last----Trust me. Attraction is a must for a relationship but sometimes going too far is a obstruction. What's the point of making $300k if the person you are sharing it with becomes sour. The same rule with looks. Whats the point of being with a '9', when after 2 years you are attracted to a '6', with a brilliant personality.

'Obstruction' is the key word. Too many online daters are being held back by these obstructions. Obviously, these people need more mental conditioning, before they enter into a relationship. The best summary. You should feel happy to be rejected by such a immature dater.
