I paid for a month just to try it out and the only way you can reach the staff is through email, they don't have a phone number which I thought was odd. Well anyway, I started browsing and a lot of the guys are really good looking and make a lot of money. I am not a successful rich woman. I am on a fixed income and I live in a small studio apartment. I have been putting myself down because I could never imagine any of those guys wanting me or dating me. They like women who have money and are beautiful and successful. When I was filling out my profile I didn't know what to say about my financial situation. So far 9 guys have viewed me. Some of them messaged me but didn't follow up after. I got a new message from a guy who is in the Air Force and is a doctor. When I looked at his profile I noticed that I'm out of his age bracket. He is looking for someone who is 25-35. Well I sent him a message even though I was hesitant and suspicious. He stated in his profile that he is not paying member so I had to send him a message to his email address. I don't know if he is going to respond. Also I notice that a lot of the guys are never hardly online and I just wonder if some of the profiles are fake. Should I just give up on it? I'm so tired of being hurt anddisappointed.

 I'm trying to figure out why you would sign up for such a site first of all. It's not that the men are out of your league ( I don't believe in "leagues") but it seems like you would have very little in common with "those" kind of men.
I would look for a more broad and reputable dating site. And like the first anon male said, cancel the subscription and cancel your card - get a new card - if you paid with a credit card.
IF it seems to "good" to be true with so many hot guys, it probably is.

Also you can have people who may set up a profile on a genuine website to try and lure you to another website that they get paid a commission for. If someone or something seems a bit suspect - it usually is!

You can be certain that almost all of the profiles are fake. Rich, handsome, successful men don't need dating sites to find compatible women. Assuming the site is a fraud intended to prey upon lonely, desperate women by scamming them out of their money while collecting their e-mail addresses for sale to other unscrupulous hucksters.
If you paid with a credit card, best to cancel the account. If you didn't read all the fine print when you actually signed up, then you are probably subject to all sorts of ongoing hidden monthly charges.
