Women drop out of these dating sites as well for very similar reasons. I have been on a few dating sites in the past and experienced the same as a woman with the men looking for a TALL MODEL LIKE BEAUTIFUL VERY SLENDER WOMAN. AND MANY MEN FOCUS ON AGE AS WELL. Most of the men I came across wouldn't give me a second glance because I was not "young enough". So it goes both ways. Needless to say I have not been back on a dating site in many years and sadly it's very difficult to meet men and establish a relationship without one nowadays. šŸ’ž

Thank you Theresa, these unreasonable expectations work both ways, see my post above. It always amazed me how the most average-looking, nothing-special men had these wildly unrealistic expectations for the kind of woman they could attract. I myself have been off those sites for five years and am in no hurry to go back. Sometimes I think being single is better than diving into all that again.
