Very much a slow site

It would be good to get more users in a persons area. I can see myself being here for rather a long time!! I think the majority of people would prefer someone closer as not everybody can travel that easy and if you do decide to go on a journey and it does not work out it can become expensive!! Being a "Free" site i am very surprised at the lack of ladies here. Why that is i have no idea (perhaps some ladies will enlighten us as to why) as i find this site is easy to navigate as compared to others!
As i have not had one to one contact on here as yet, i have no idea how good the messaging system is. Uploading of photos was very easy and quick and also quick to be approved - maybe that would change if and when the site gets busier ............
Adverts are unobtrusive and are obviously required to keep the site free.
I live in hope that it will get busier especially in my area but there again maybe quality other than quantity is better for all (food for thought).
