“How do you know if someone wants more than just sex?”

Hello, dear online world!

My name is Claudia and I am definitely on the sunny side of life – both in age and in outlook on life!

I had been married for many years and suddenly found myself in the jungle of online dating. So yeah, I’m the one who sometimes has my eyes closed in the profile photo or a finger still visible in the photo because I’m not very good with this selfie thing yet. So I’m new to the game (is that how you say it?) and I just don’t understand how it all works.

But let’s throw in the towel now: I’m writing to some interesting gentlemen and it’s going well. But how do I know if someone is really interested in me or if it’s just about one thing? I mean, I don’t mind a little fun, but I’d like to have a little more than just a casual flirt. So, how do I know true intentions in this complicated online dating world? Are there any codes or hints that I don’t know? And why are you sometimes just removed after a nice conversation? I do not understand it either.

Thanks in advance!
