So I am a single guy and Im finding very hard to meet someone. I find Im getting many responses from women from all different parts of the world and when I tell them Im not interested, Im looking for someone local, they dont stop. When I do get chatting with someone local and everything seems to be going well,, after a few messages they stop responding. I cant figure this out. If you are not married or in a relationship, are you looking for a partner ? Yes
