Reply to John Gilbert:

I don't think I ever said that net.singles should be RESTRICTED to dealing
with the difficulties of those of us presently unattached.  Greg Woods went
farther than I did.  However, I do agree with Greg that those of us who were
already feeling left out were made to feel even more left out by the well-
attached (complacent?) netters who apparently either never knew or had long
forgotten what it was like to be involuntarily unattached for a long time.

However, I'm no longer worrying about WHETHER I will find myself significantly
othered, just WHEN.  The psychotherapeutical value of prayer is truly amazing;
it enabled me to come to a belief that I will, for certain, eventually enter
into a relationship (more than friendship) with a woman.  Now all I need is
patience....
