This question has been asked a million times in one form or another.
For the most part if not married or have a SO all people want to meet another person and want a relationship.
So those that are looking for someone, regardless of what your likes and or fetishes are, one that has similar interests to yours and wants a relationship today, is one of the hardest things to do.
And let's be honest not everyone is attracted to everyone.
And these dating sites today, even the ones that say they are free all have fees if you want more than just look at pics and read profiles, but that is what it is.
AOL, was a great site. Tons of chat rooms for just about anything and then a few more. And people were more open about themselves and what they liked and did not hide behind, n/a, and what that is I still do not know.
And with Covid-19 people are just SCARED and will not meet anyone and I agree for now.
I read an article that said it will take another 1-2 yrs for society, if things do not get worse, to get back to meeting, shaking hands, meeting for a coffee or a drink.
Daddy'sGirl, even if you were to meet a Daddy online and he sounds great would you travel to meet a complete stranger? This reminds me of when HIV/AIDS was more or less rampant. You had to be tested and the one you were going to meet would be tested and when you met each other you shared test results. Then you shook hands.
So DaddysGirl smile and be patient and Good Luck!!!!!!!!! You are young and things will get better.
