Anyone encounter someone always talk and without action? Sometimes it's waste of time when people like to just sweet talk and don't action. It's tired and I would rather a person really do it instead of always provide promise but never meant it. Losing trust let the chemistry fade away.

yea I love talking

I notice the people who flirt a lot are all talk, and no action.

And, then, there's the people who start talking,
and never shut up.

Not just those flirty one, some people just don't think when they say something, overpromise...

What is worse is beginning to fall for them only to discover they are a scammer, and in some ways, those that talk the talk but do not walk the walk, are no better. I believe it's best to keep an online friendship as just that, until you meet each other in person you both don't know if it could be more. You need to meet up quickly, but not easy if they live in another country so you have to trust they are who they say they are, and yes, sadly it could all be a waste of time, but you still try, and by keeping it as friends no one is hurt if it does fail to be any more than that.

I can't be friend with those that hurt me. No, please. Once make the decision, it's no longer need to be pretending to be friend, why keep let the worst haunting and emotional affected by a wrong person? Friend is meant to be reliable and trustworthy as well. Yes, if a person not intend to meet in real life sooner, I guess the person is kind of looking for pen pal, which I am not interested on it.

So... why aren't you yourself taking action when it's not going somewhere.
When a movie is crap you don't sit it out hoping it'll get good. You take action, switch it off and find another one.

If I'm afraid of someone who doesn't speak or act at all... I'm afraid he won't have his breath anymore... :(

What sparkling chrystal said

well said

Yes, I did.

Pheob, you remind me of a friend from Beijing, also having a tough time with dating sites.

I might suggest patience, getting to know, and finding the right person before jumping into anything more.

Thank you, Mark. We have been chatting for two months before decided to move to next level, however it's long distance relationship and he always saying but never action. So I made the decision to move on and I agree that need more patience. Last relationship was 5 years ago. Probably until the end of life, I might want to remain single forever, lol.

give me one chance

Rock and Blondey took action. Good luck you both.

Thank you, Cat.
