I just don't get it, maybe I'm too old fashioned.

I find myself struggling with dating these days, so I just don't. I haven't in years actually, but I am ever hopeful that some day I will meet someone who is real and genuine and just meshes with me.
The meshing is the important part.. that click, camaraderie, that spark, that feeling when someone REALLY gets you, and you get them. That mutual respect and admiration, and that twinge of "I'm missing you" when you're not around. Yea, that's the good stuff.
I'm also not getting this thing when someone says they are 'taking a break' in their relationship. That's a lame excuse for cheating. I don't take breaks. When I'm with someone, I'm all in for the long haul, you know? Come hell or high water, or honey and good times, I'm hanging in there with my partner, and I expect him to hang in too - that's what love is. If the need for a "break" comes up, then I'm done for good, not for just a minute.
One other thing guys, not all gals like a bunch of innuendo and raunchy talk, and a bunch of lines and come-ons. Just be real, talk about life, what makes you you. Its far more intriguing than generic one liners, flirty talk, and trying to steer the convo to something sexual. That stuff gets so old and tiring, or maybe I'm just old and tired! hah. I guess you guys have your issues with us gals on here too.
This online stuff is hard to navigate sometimes, but I'm finding the real world to be just as confusing these days when chilling and watching Netflix apparently doesn't just mean popcorn and a movie anymore :(

Thanks for the reply beefo, but my post has nothing to do with outward appearances, or anything about looks at all. Quite the contrary, its about finding someone who suits you, their character, and whats on the inside meshing with yours. I know there are a lot of shallow people who judge that way, both men and women, and that's a shame. They're probably missing out on some good folks.
Another thing I am very adamant about IS taking that time to get to know someone. The problem is too many people want to jump in, and walk away when you don't. Well, I say keep walking and save me a bad match. I know, I'm worth the wait ;) A real friendship takes time, and anything more than that takes even longer to be sure.
