Who thinks online dating works?

or who is now married and was dating online???


wanna know if it works:)

Who thinks online dating works?
I'm in LOVE with a girl I met online. It is the most fulfilling relationship I ever had in my life, she might be the one.





And I didn't pay one cent for it.
Reply:you are welcome! Report It

Reply:Which online website did you use? Report It

Reply:95% not work
Reply:Well for some people it works. My best friend was on EHarmony, and she met someone and they dated for awhile. I tried it too, and I didn't meet anybody. It just depends on the individual person.
Reply:No It Wont Last.
Reply:I met my husband online. We've been married over 5 years. My sister also met her husband online and they've been married 6.5 years.
Reply:I have two friends who met their wives on e-harmony.
Reply:fact is if you cant meet some 1 locally somthings may be wrong with 1 or the other only good thing is the intrests are spelled out,, sexuely and daily intrests BUT thats still not everything as far as chemistry is concerned,,.. 1 nighters maybe ,,,but i think it's not a real good idea for most ppl
Reply:it doesn't work out my uncle married this girl off the net because he thought she got pregnant with him but it turnes out its not even his kid and now she's divorcing him and doing her best to get half his money, she was in it for the money all along, she flew out to cali took the baby the ring and ran up all his credit cards, don't do it.
Reply:I am married to a wonderful man that I met on-line, and someone that I wouldn't of met otherwise. I am sure it probably doesn't always work that way for everyone but did for me.
Reply:no don't even do it , it sucks, just look for the fish in the water yo self.
Reply:been there done that already lasted for a while ...
Reply:Trust me it's not gonna work. You are talking to people that you don't know. And nowadays with all these dam child rapers running around who knows what could happen? Relationships in where you don't see who you're talking to and don't know what they really look like are not going to work out. Most people would prefer real contact.
Reply:Meeting someone via the Internet is no different than any other social setting.... it's what happens AFTER you meet face-to-face that matters.
Reply:IT DOES WORK!! my uncle got married to this really great person!


shes very nice!


and she's now my aunt. haha
Reply:I have a good friend that met his girlfriend on line....they are planning to get married soon=))
Reply:i dont know i heard it works for some people and others not but mainly i heard it dont work out
Reply:Wow I have met and dated alot of prople from online some work and some dont take for instant my ex of 3 years whom I met on ICQ decided to use me as a punching bag and I went to jail for defending myself so my advice to you or anyone thinking about it take it slowlyyyyyyyyyy get to know the person dont just jump in like I did so stupuidly. I have siome awesome friends who Ive been talking to for years.
Reply:Not me!
Reply:My brother-in-law has been dating girls who he has met through on-line dating, actually Yahoo. He has met some really nice girls and seems to enjoy meeting people that way. (his wife, my sister, passed away a few years ago and he has had a time wanting to go out to meet people. so why not on line)
Reply:Well it hasn't worked for me so far.
Reply:For some people it does work, my mom meet a guy online and they got married, same with my sister. Still together.
Reply:you never know. be careful though.
Reply:Not me.
Reply:It worked for me!!! Happily Married going on 8 years
Reply:I dated one woman I met online. I don't think I'll ever do it again. I think it's very difficult to get to really know someone online because of the 'anonymity' factor. We all have the opportunity to represent ourselves in the best possible light, editing out undesirable qualities....which would otherwise probably be detected within the first few minutes of meeting someone in real life. I'm sure there are exceptions... I think you can tell more from a person's facial expressions in one minute, than you can from a hundred well written e-mails.
Reply:me,
Reply:I think online dating is something that people do when they are unable to have a life of their own. Now, meeting someone online who lives nearby and starting a relationship with that person and later falling in love. That's fine. But I had a friend who "dated" a kid online for almost 4 years. They did eventually meet, but they had a lot of problems because where do you draw the line with online dating? I don't know. If its strickly online, its for people who don't have a life and really don't want one. If its one that develops into a REAL, personal relationship. That's a different story. But even yet, I'd caution meeting someone in real life that you've met online. Its still too dangerous.
Reply:probably not..never tried it
Reply:Not sure what exactly you mean by online dating but I think meeting people online is very common nowadays. I've dated a few guys I met online and have made some friends by chatting online. I'm not married yet, but a friend of mine who is married met her husband online and I've heard similar stories. So it can work, you just have to know how to pick and choose! Good luck!
Reply:It depends on who the person is and if u really like or love this person. but it does work in some cases
Reply:i dont think so. u should see the person face to face to know him.

Problems with online dating?

Can anyone tell me some online dating problems?


I know a few. Just wondering.

Problems with online dating?
My issues were just people looking for one night stands. Then one guy who seemed decent...when we talked over the phone, he told me that when he looks at his truck he gets a hard on. Oy. I've never done online dating again.
Reply:Well, you always have risks. You can write anything on line about yourself... the person on the other end of the computer doesn't really know and has to assume you're telling them the truth. You can't hear a tone in their voice when messaging. You could take a comment one way and the person meant it another way.

Sweetie says some problems are:


You don't really know who you're communicating with (serial killer/rapist/psycho/man/woman/girl/boy)


Could be married or single, honest or dishonest.

Reply:that it sucks bootay!!! lol. i would never!! its not the same!!
Reply:I've found recently that the majority of women I've met, chatted with, are having very large financial problems. Be it having to file charter 11's, losing their homes.


Having problem with their children or jobs aren't very secure right now.


Not a very promising outlook!!! LOL


Ladies, I'm sure that there are many stable singles out there. I'm just answering the man's question on online dating sites!!
Reply:If you know how to use it, it's a really easy way to date nice girls. There are a lot of lonely cool good looking girls on dating websites and not just ugly ones as some people think.





*Just don't expect such websites to do miracles for you. -.-

I'm dating a hindu guy online...need your insights?

hi all...it's my first time to post. i'm just really curious. i've never tried online dating before, but after i broke up with my ex, i figured i just wanna try it for fun and not be serious with it. so some indian guy sends me a message over at myspace and initially, i didn't like his english but he was very pleasant and nice so i decided i wanna be friends with him.


we chat daily and realized we like each other...


i feel like im starting to fall for him and because this is just online, i can't help but have hesitations at the back of my mind if this is gonna work or not or if he is making up stories or not...but i think he is not... can you guys help me how to verify things, or at least give me tips on how to make "us" work? by the way, he is half indian-half british.


i wanna know in particular what challenges i should expect with our situation....give me precations...





thank you all for your answers :)

I'm dating a hindu guy online...need your insights?
Online dating is the wave of the present and the future. Do you really want to meet guys in bars? Drunks basically?


Or crap where you eat? (Date guys at work)


Like Heidi said, liars will lie in real life or online.





There are intelligent people online. People that use computers tend to be a little smarter than the average moron.





Women seem hesitant about the whole thing because they talk to each other too much instead of experimenting with it.





Online dating can really break the ice. You can write a little at first, do IM, webcam video and/or audio, send jpgs, etc.


Many people have webpages that describe themselves, etc.





You have more opportunities to fine tune what you are looking for with the internet. And you don't even have to put on make-up!! (unless you're webcamming).





Good luck and good hunting!!
Reply:Go post this in American answers in this same category. People will be nicer to you. These people are being mean to you and you don't deserve it. With online relationships there are people that lie but people can lie as much as they can in real life too. Online relationships are similar to real ones. I have had a few of them. Meet him in a public place if you just want to make sure. You never really know someone tell you have married them honestly. Just take it slow and feel him out. I think it will be fine. =) I hope things go well.
Reply:just check if he is sincere and if he really means it.....


doesnt matter who he is or where he comes from.....


if you find he is, then go ahead........there will be no problem..........
Reply:first of all i am not trying to be mean but why are you dating a guy online why why would you no that guy could be a guy that is not safe just giving you some advice
Reply:well it dosent matter in this global world whether you are dating a hindu guy or a japanese. you can really check him by talking just about sex.

I'm newly single and trying online dating...Has anyone had any luck with it?

I just joined an online dating site called http://212fling.com and was wondering if anyone else had experience with the online dating scene.





If you've had successful encounters online, may you please tell me what's the best site, and how much should I expect to pay.

I'm newly single and trying online dating...Has anyone had any luck with it?
I found my wonderful boyfriend on Craigslist, and we have been together now for over a year.





Just be careful, follow your gut, and meet in a public place.
Reply:well fling is for not really dating is more like hit it and leave.....If you want to find a real date try match.com or datehookup.com is free............you can email all day long for free...
Reply:Dating online seems to be the new trend. Some people use sites like myspace.com, eharmony, blackplanet.com, urbanchat.com, match.com





It all depends on whether you're willing to spend money for it or not. Be careful, sometimes online predators leach themselves to a lot of these sites, so play it safe and try not to give out too much personal info about yourself.





Also, check your local community listings, sometimes they have local dating services.
Reply:Well ...wouldn't call it a successfull encounter ...unless you call just having the best sex of my life "successful" ...LOL





Seriously ..met who I thought was a great guy online yahoo personals ....we went out for awhile ...said he wanted all the same things as me (i was just out of a 10 year marriage) ...then I slept with him ..and *poof* he was gone. Ah well ...at least I have the memories !! LOL





Just take it slow ...don't let anyone use you ..use your best judgement ...meet in a public place ...it can be a good experience !!





Good luck, and best wishes !
Reply:I actually met the LOVE OF MY LIFE on cupid.com.





I was so skeptical about online dating at first... I thought it was desperate and silly. But then Andrew wrote me, and he was exactly [[and I mean EXACTLY to the T]] what I was looking for and even more. We chatted online for about 2 months before we actually met... and when we finally did it was even better. I can't wait to have a family with him some day!





So do it - just be careful... there are a lot of creeps out there, but the perfect guys do exist!


100% free online dating service site ? No charges EVER ?

I'm looking for an online dating site that WILL NOT charge me to send messages to people - most seem to let me sign up free but then want to charge when I try to contact anyone.





Please let me know if you know of a free site - there must be one out there!

100% free online dating service site ? No charges EVER ?
http://www.tarzanmeetjane.com is completely free to sign up and to contact people, there’s instant messaging in it too which is good. I know exactly what you’re talking about, a lot of sites claim to be free but they’re not when you try to contact people so I was glad to find this site, I hope that helps you.
Reply:Flirtbox.com no charges and specific sites for different countries.
Reply:yeah its called "myspace" learn how to talk to a girl and it is great. but i bet u have no game so ur probably stuck with all the desperate people who pay thousands for dating sights.





im sorry to be rude... i was in ur shoes once too... hey what if i told u about something that is a quarter of the price of match sights and it would make u rock with ladies, would u check it out? it worked for me. i promise u. i am just a normal guy but now i have 6 girlfriends and i think i have found the one i want to pursue to mary.... just check these out.





type "david deangelo" or "david wygant" in ur browser. buy the programs. i promise it works as their teaching become ingrained into ur head.
Reply:use hi5 or myspace, hell even local yahoo chat or something, or personally anymore I just try finding events to go to with people around, and grow a set of nuts for the ocation even if it feels out of character at times, good luck

What gives? online dating.?

I'm newly single, so I checked out this online dating site. There's a guy I liked and he expressed interest. I've been checking out his profile. finally had the nerve to ask him a couple of questions, volunteered some detail about what I do....he checks my profile but doesn't say anything..should I forget him or give him some time? I don't want to show anymore interest than I already have but I can't seem to get over him.

What gives? online dating.?
Well I'm against online dating (Besides the fact Ive tried it) The distanceis wayy too much too handle...You never know how the person really is.
Reply:Couldn't hurt to give him time, but keep your options open, going to be on a dating site then might as well take advantage of it and explore some other people. Not like he's the only guy on the site.
Reply:let it go. Give him Time, he may be involved. YOu made your move let him have his turn.
Reply:Give it a try and be careful. Just don't believe him all before your relationships are very well.

dental bridge

I'm online dating at the moment and he wants me to go over there should i?

before i go any further i'll tell you who i am,


I'm not Brock I'm Kelly Anne, 13(14 soon) female i'm a rocker chick (i noticed that brock has been posting Q's about me i'm not that bad,I'm only a little bit f*%$#ed up)


any who, this guy wants me to go over to the U.S.A. to meet him we have been online dating for about 2 months, The guy is 16 and i've seen pics of him and we have video chatted so i know he isn't a 50 sumthin year old child rapest!


I've got lots of cash that i've won from poetry comps and sh*t so i can pay for my own flight and stuff. I'm just not quite sure if i should go over there b/c Houston,tx is heaps far from Australia and i've never been out of Australia exept when i went to Mexico.


Just please help me I'm so confused!

I'm online dating at the moment and he wants me to go over there should i?
You're too young to make such a huge step in a relationship. Don't go.
Reply:You got to be careful. Ask him what the real reason he wants you there. I mean he could take it that far, you know. But he is not that type of guy I wouldn't mind. JUST MAKE SURE YOU CHECK!
Reply:Dont go r u crazy?? ur mom and dad will kill u ...please think about it there must be alot of boys in australia... dont waiste ur time and u r too young to do that. U r just waisting ur time with that boy.
Reply:You're Aussie!! Hey, I'm South Aussie... where abouts are you from??





Anyway, its really up to you what you do... I mean, I could tell you that you shouldn't go up and meet him but you won't listen to me because I'm pretty sure you wanna go.





So be safe - meet him in a public place, and stay in a hotel. Be sure to tell people where you are going.


What do you think about online dating?

You hear of all of these online dating centers on commercials and they make things seem all glamourous and so forth.


What do you think about online dating?


Personally, i'm not against it. But, it wouldn't be my number one choice. I would perfer meeting my 'soul mate' or atleasy meeting someone who i'd love to spend the rest of my life with in my everyday life..Not searching for them.


It doesn't seem as special if you search for a pretty face and hope you have something in common with them.


But then again, I think it's alright if you're in your 40s and still haven't seem to run into that right person.

What do you think about online dating?
i think its a wonderful idea. to be honest for an online relationship to work you must be able to communicate and be willing to TALK. whether it be by phone or messenger. without communication skills, it just simply wont work.


i met my love over the net, it wasnt through a dating service, it was actually myspace. i thank tom everyday! my love is now in the service and i miss him dearly! it was worth all the effort to keep in touch with him, ive never bonded with someone so quickly.
Reply:i personally don't think it can work. I prefer to meet someone in person





=))
Reply:I dont think its nice. you can never be sure the person you think you are meeting up with is that person and it could be some old poedophile (sorry if thats not spelt correctly) but if someone is finding trouble getting to know people it could be beneficial... (sorry i am really bad at spelling)
Reply:its very good,met bf from online site,am 18,he lives 5miles away from me and never seen hi in town lol


What r ur thoughts on online dating?? is it really worth it??

What really becomes of online dating?? Do people really think it means a life time of happiness?? How many people have died from online dating or been raped or stalked??

What r ur thoughts on online dating?? is it really worth it??
I say NO NO NO to online dating...With all the languages...


It's not "REAL"...there are many factors and faces to one's character that makes communication real...lacking these, you get a completely different character in the real world, even if it's a better one...


I don't know...I may be not right in this...BUT it's very riskyyyyyyyyyyy
Reply:%26gt;%26gt;thoughts on online dating?


online dating is fine just be carefull and get information that is a need to know...


%26gt;%26gt;is it really worth it??


it can be.. no different than meeting someone at a bar.


%26gt;%26gt;What really becomes of online dating?


marriage or friends. ( i know of a gal i meet online and were pretty good friends,


%26gt;%26gt;Do people really think it means a life time of happiness?


not any more or less that any other kind of dating.


%26gt;%26gt;How many people have died from online dating or been raped or stalked?


Im guessing not any more or less that normal dating..
Reply:My mom met her husband online! I've never seen her happier! Bad things can happen, but I think most of those happen in chat rooms. People who pay for online dating services, most of time, aren't going to rape you. I think people who do that just meet people in chat rooms.


It might actually be safer. You get to screen the person for as long as you want before you actually meet.


You can go about it in a safe way.
Reply:Okay...relationships that start from meeting someone in a bar or at school or at work end, too. You can't just assume that because not all online relationships work out that it is the method of meeting that caused the downfall.





As with any dating, it is safe as long as you are cautious. If I ran around meeting random people and going home with them after knowing them for 5 minutes, I could find myself in big trouble, right? Well, same goes for online dating. You just have to be smart about it. Talk to someone for a long time before meeting up with them in person. Have them send you numerous pictures and judge whether you are sure they couldn't have gotten them from the internet somewhere. If they have a digital camera or webcam readily available, ask them to take a picture of something specific (like with them winking or something). That will make it more obvious if it is really them in the picture.





Finally, when it is time that you feel you are ready to meet them in person, meet in a extraordinarily public place at daytime and always take a friend or two along with you. It is not dangerous unless you put yourself in dangerous positions. I also would not recommend online dating if you are under the age of 17 or 18. It really is an adult-type of dating.





It is a new way of dating because the technology to do so is new. But many people find it to be an easy way of meeting new people and it can work out quite nicely. I say, why not give it a try, but proceed with caution as you should with any type of dating.
Reply:one of my good friend, got married to her husband and she met him online, good relationship so far!! but be very careful.
Reply:My uncle met a woman on the internet...within 8 weeks they were engaged and married and had their own house...by that Christmas they were separated and now divorced =)
Reply:I had my first date with a guy who I got to know him by e mail, chating in 1998 and we got married in 2000 and he is one of the best husband. It is worth only we have to be careful make the first date at the public place, at day time for exsample coffeeshop, restuarant etc.
Reply:no
Reply:There is always that possibility that it could happen, but if you take caution to the wind, you should be ok. Do not let someone lure you into believing anything until you actually know them, and always take someone with you when you go to meet them, like a police officer. I met an ex online and if it were not for the long distance between us, we would probably have still been together. a good question to be answered, is long distance online dating, with someone you never met, safe?
Reply:Probably far fewer than have been raped or stalked from normal dating!





Worth can only be measured against what you want. If you want a quick bonk and get one it's worth it. If you want marriage there is a slim chance it's going to be worth the effort or risks.
Reply:Online daters are the week, but you'll have plenty of time to make up your mind and you'll have plenty of people to choose from. In my datingsite everyone's a pimp from Africa or Eastern Europe. And nearly all the pictures in the profiles are fake and you'll risk getting jumped by queers and thieves.


Safety in online dating?

Any tips for a safe and fun online dating experience? I'm not really a "let's send messages forever" type of person. I'd rather give my email or talk on the phone or meet up with people I might be interested in, but how can I be sure it's safe? Any warning signs to look out for?

Safety in online dating?
There's no such thing in "safe" online dating. I recommend you don't. BUT, if you do, take this advice at the least. Don't give personal details or meet up with him if-





1. He/she starts talking really dirty


2. He/she immediately asks for personal information


3. He/she is a lot older than you.





I still do NOT recommend to date online

Scared of online dating but seems only option?

I have been single for about a year now but have decided to find a nice man to settle down with. Problem is that I haven't met anyone who fits my description. I don't do bars, would attend parties occasionally and can't ask a man out. Was adviced to try online dating but I have heard so many horror stories. What are your experiences, if any ?

Scared of online dating but seems only option?
I have personally never tried online dating, but wanted to answer your question b/c I have friends who have tried it.





I think it is kind of hit-and-miss. Some sites like yahoo personals are not a good idea; there are so many young people on there looking for a good time. I have 2 friends who have had successful relationships (one is getting married next summer) with men they met on eharmony.com. This site makes you get to know the person well before you meet. Supposedly, it is expensive but both of them say it was worth it. I think match.com is somewhere in the middle (lots of kids, but some older as well)





The best advice I can say in general is not to appear desparate to settle down too soon! You should find out if the guy is looking for a relationship but don't force it too early. Also, I would talk to the person online for a while, then on the phone, before deciding to meet in person. When you do meet, take a friend or couple with you for a double date! Good luck!
Reply:i found that the problem with the dating sites is most are computer generated and if you get answers back i suggest a photo i had a fifteen year old try to meet up with me I'm 29 so be car full of it and what state you from
Reply:I met and married a fantastic man through on-line dating. I joined with an open mind and no real expectations and with in a week got a message from a guy who live in same small town as me, the rest as they say is history. It worked for me
Reply:There are pluses and minuses about online dating. I will give the minus first just so you have something to look forward to. You don't always know if the person on the other end is really telling you the truth. You have to trust them and see where it goes from there. They could be some 13 year old (or 60 year old) that is just screwing around. There is no real way to tell unless you meet them in person.





The plus side is that the person on the other end could be the perfect match for you. All you have to do is make the time to get to know the true them (or hope that they are actually telling you the truth). I met my (now) husband on the internet. We dated for 2 and a half years, we have a 2 year old son and have been married for 6 months. You could always find your dream mate (as I did) over the internet...you just have to give it a chance.
Reply:I don't have any horror stories or any experience for that matter in the whole online dating thing but I know exactly how you feel and was seriously thinking the same exact thing when I happened to stumble upon your question. My problem is that my friends are limited, gone out to bars and always meet someone but they are usually out for one thing and I don't even want to bother with that. I work full-time but the only guys that come here are far too old for my liking, and my friends don't really know of anyone and I don't get out as much as I would like too. So here I am wondering if online dating is my only option and to be honest I really wish it wasn't because of the whole stigma attached that it is only for the weirdos and pathetic. I think though that if you are ready to start dating and meet new people and nothing else is working, then by all means try it out. My mom met her husband online (he is from Scotland and shes in NY) and they are happy together so not all stories about online dating are of the horror genre...lol...Good luck to you and although I couldn't really give you any real stories about online dating (whether good or bad) at least you know your not the only one who is in this same perdicament. Take Care:)
Reply:you can do anything you set your mind to do..there's nothing wrong with asking a guy out..the worst that can happen is that he will say no..why leave it up to the guys all the time to make the first move? you might end up pretty lonely if you wait for them to make the move





dating on line is just fine if you use your common sense..no different than other forms of dating
Reply:Mostly people lying about their looks or weight. Had one gal e-mail a picture. Good looking! Oh yes....for a picture that was about 20 years ago.
Reply:It can be fun but also frustrating at times. There are a lot of liars and freaks out there, you have to keep your BS detector on :) But it is another way to meet people you wouldn't have met otherwise, and it's nice to be able to "screen" your criteria for age, location, education, religion etc. I've had a handful of dates and one 6-month relationship with people I met through personals, if you're curious, go ahead and give it a try. Basic rules: keep your expectations low, don't take anything personally, and be prepared for more rejection than response. That's just how it goes. You probably find the biggest variety of people on yahoo personals or match.com.
Reply:I like your name thing. No I'm not scared of online dating. I think it is kinda fun.
Reply:Iv been single for a while to...online dateing is not the only way...keep in mind online dateing may be good for just personality but looks matter as well...and most guys lie...so i would say that you would be better off just looking around...someone will have you for who you are and not over the internet

Experience with Online dating?

I am interested in hearing any experiences, good or bad, concerning online dating services. Are there any agencies that are better than others? Is the whole thing just a crock?

Experience with Online dating?
I found Match.com and Yahoo really good sites. I met a lot of nice men, only a couple turned out to be a little weird. I eventually met my current husband and we fell in love right away. You need to be discriminate and talk to the people online first, then a couple of phone calls before meeting them so that you can get a feel if this person is what you might be looking for. There is no way I would have met him or anybody else because I have an isolated job where I don't meet people. So, I gave it a try and I am so glad that I did. (I have heard from men that the women do post old pictures of themselves and that a lot of women are much older and chunkier than they present themselves. Also, some people are professional daters so you need to be careful of them). I didn't have this experience with the men.
Reply:I have had 2 bad experiences with them. Both girls were addicted to the sites. Even one girl I was with was for 3 years, and engaged, and I kept finding her on date sites. Its like people get addicted to them and always want to see who is out there or available to them. Its sick.
Reply:It works well, if.... you invest the needed time and energy. It works best if you use email (lots of them) to really get to know the other before you meet them. I like it because you can be yourself immediately, and hopefully the other will do the same. And that why you can make judgments about the other early on, i.e. you can move on early if there is no spark or if there is a compatibility problem.
Reply:ha noooo... get out of the house
Reply:I am dating a guy that I met on OKCupid.com. I really like him a lot! I have met other guys from there before and some of them are still pretty good friends to me. I've never paid for a dating site before though.

Oh my god online dating!!!!!!?

This guy that I approached on an online dating website almost three weeks ago still hasn't asked me for my number or to go on a date. So I told him after day 12 what is his purpose on match if he is not going to go for it-he told me that he was going to take his profile down-then once January got here he said women started winking and emailing him--So even though he knew that he was going to be extremley busy in Jan and Feb--he left it up anyway--I kept talking to him--I think I am into him--then yesterday--I started reading 'he's just not that into you' and everthing about this guy went against anything the book had to say about men--so I emailed him and told him the following--I take back being your friend again, What was I thinking? I thought you had potential with me--too bad--good luck--then he sends me this email saying that he was going to ask me for my number that day--and blah blah, I told him-yeah after you got my email you say that now--then we ended up talking on instant

Oh my god online dating!!!!!!?
Your mistake was going after him ALWAYS let guys chase you dont you chase them. REMEMBER THAT!!
Reply:He's totally married. Or not that into you. Either way, forget about him and move on.
Reply:How old are you? 13? Past your bedtime isn't it?
Reply:Why must he ask for your number? Why don't you ask for his number and go further to see if you're not wasting your time?


You should ask his number and you would be controlling situation because you call him whenever you want (so you won't be waiting til he calls you) and on the talking you see if you're not wasting your time.
Reply:Well I presonally don't like talking online to people it causes to much problem but for you, here is my advice. If I were you I would keep talking to him for awhile get to know him alittle more. Before calling or meeting because if you really like he guy online, then you should like him when you do meet the only thing that might is his looks. If that is why you don't like him when you meet him then you are quite shallow.
Reply:Imagine you had a best friend or a daughter in your situation. Now think what you would have told her to do. Be honest with yourself. The answer to your question will become quite clear.
Reply:Leave him be, he's not into you.


Find someone that is.
Reply:A few things here:





1. Put down the pop psychology books. You've gotta be able to hone into reality, and there is no formula really.





2. How can he be into you? He's never met you. You're just exchanging pathetic emails through a dating site.





3. You want somebody to arrange a fist meeting pretty quickly (within one or two emails and possibly one phone call if he gives you his number--some women prefer to get the guy's number first).





4. The first meeting should be fairly casual and relaxed. The purpose is to see if there is a possibility of any physical chemistry at all.





Wasting time exchangng lots of emails or too many phone calls before meeting is just a waste of time and puts off the inevitable first meeting.

Are There Any Good Online Dating Sites For A Single Guy? Or Is The Online Fad Of Finding Someone Over?

Anyone with personal experiences with online dating sites please respond. What are the do's and dont's. Has anyone here had a successful relationship from meeting online? With a busy life and so little freetime is this the only way to meet someone? I'm sick of bars and social clubs. What is the key to meeting someone right in this day and age of technology and the fact everyones so damn busy? I almost think being gay would be easier but I am so not attracted to the male body so thats out. Just frustrated with how times are changing and how little people get to interact with one another face to face. I live/rent on a lake and have a ski boat so I get to meet people on the weekends but all I run across is married people or girls who are just way too young, it sucks. I guess I need a new outlet and I dont know what to do. I am done with friends setting me up, it has not worked out so good, I guess I'm too picky but thats me. Lonely and looking in Eau Claire, WI.Help!

Are There Any Good Online Dating Sites For A Single Guy? Or Is The Online Fad Of Finding Someone Over?
Millionairecupid is your first choice. You will know the reason after a short try.
Reply:We live in Eau Claire too. It is a hard place to date. My boyfriend and I met through a work situation. If you're older than college age, it's really hard. I'm sorry, but the bars are usually where single people look. Have you been to Woos for the music? That has a nice crowd. And volleyball teams in the summer is where a lot of newly divorced people hang. College kids do Water Street. The Joint is Eau Claire's only "Bohemian" bar. Nature clubs like the Sierra Club and the canoe club are active, but everyone in them is usually hooked up or maybe too old for you? But those people are nice and really smart.





Here's a free online site I saw advertised. And most people around here do Yahoo personals.

Reply:I've had nothing but great experiences with online dating. Yahoo Personals is good as well as Match.com. Your profile should be unique and conversational with pictures that show all sides of your personality. For instance, a picture of you on your jet ski would be a good picture.
Reply:I BELIEVE ONLINE DATING IS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF TIME so if you have the rest of your life to spend setting in front of a computer screen then go for it

The truth about online dating?

I asked a man I had been talking with online to meet in person. He became offended that I had asked him and became verbally degrading (saying I was pushy for asking and then calling me high maintenance??? when he hardly knew me). I thought he was joking at first but he became very nasty and then was trying to dictate what I said and where I went for the night? Is this a common experience with the online dating scene? I feel so bad about this happening.

How effective is online dating?

Anyone had any luck with online dating? What are the girls on there like, and do they feel less attracted to a guy they meet online as opposed to in person? I can't seem to meet anyone in the real world, I hate to drink and am very unnatural in a bar environment.

How effective is online dating?
I've had some fun with it, a few frustrations. Some women I know married guys they met online and seem very happy.





The good part for you is that you can put "I hate to drink and don't like bars" in your online profile. That way only girls who either feel the same way or are okay with someone who feels the way you do will contact you or respond.





Online you skip some of the small talk, the fishing around to find out things, which saves some time. If you definitely don't want kids, you can "weed out" the woman that wants 5. If you hate tattoos, you don't have to search around checking if she has one or vice versa.





Girls online seem to be like guys online--not entirely happy alone, not having great luck finding exactly what they want by chance or by bars.
Reply:It's effective. You have to just wait for the right person to come along. I'm 19 and my now boyfriend I met online 4 months ago. He was on a website that I belonged to and decided to im me randomly. We met up, hit it off, and are great together. Fast forward 4 months, we are practically engaged, live together, plan on getting married, the best of friends, complete one another and the happiest couple. People would never know that we met online because there is no difference at all. I would try it. You have nothing to lose and you might find the one of your dreams on there. Best of Luck and I hope you meet someone soon!
Reply:Online dating is a great way to meet people. Did you know that when people chat on line they are 65% more likely to be truthful. This is definitely better than the bar scene and a mite better than meeting someone through a dating service. I have tried all three and the on line dates are the best.
Reply:Where do you live. You sound very well grounded for this kind of statement. Try being a little more cheerful and lots more friendly. I'm sure a lot of guys must have been waiting in the wings to chat you up on a good day. What you are looking for in definitely not on-line. Good luck.
Reply:I am the best one for this question. I just moved from Iowa to Nashville Sunday to meet a man that I had met online. He is everthing he said he was. I am highly impressed. I have to say he is by far the most established man I have ever been with. I have to say that online dating worked better for me then meeting someone in person. Good luck!
Reply:dont try it i understand maybe ur desperate but try somethin else there r some pervertd people around and u ront know what the r up to plus the peole therejust say they r hot and cute and most ofthem r desperate 50 year olds so forget it please!!
Reply:You don't know what you are getting when you online date. Meeting a person in person gives you a greater advantage because you can feel them out and see if there is chemistry. You could find someone online and eventually meet them and there be no chemistry between you
Reply:it's not effective, it's stupid
Reply:I'm married and have never online dated. However, I have friends that have done it. Most of them say, it stinks. The guy will take you out for a meal or a movie and then expect to be paid back. (If you know what I mean). Stay away. It is just crawling with people that are married, lie about their age, and are maybe just out of prison. Many times what you think the person is like is not true at all. One guy told my friend he was 35 and when he showed up, he must have been 55 with his hair dyed black. Ewwww. The best thing you can do is join a club, volunteer, be active in a church, join the Young Republicans or Young Democrats or Rotaract. Lots of places to meet quality people for friends and dating. The internet is not the place! Good luck.
Reply:well some girls are and some aren't. i personally believe that meeting someone in person is better than online because u never know what kind of tricks they will pull to get important info about u for them. like where u live and your bank account and stuff. also there are alot of online sex predators. so i feel safer about meeting someone in person. you can tell alot about a person by their wardrobe.
Reply:Online dating, in general, is a very effective way to meet people, as long as they take the time to post their latest photos and write an honest and comprehensive introduction to themselves. You can size people up quickly and check them out, you know. I met several women through online dating. Nothing came of it, you know, no great relationship, but it proves that the system works...you can meet people, make a date, go out for coffee and get to know each other in person, etc.


My sister actually met her husband online. My friend Tony met his wife online. So for some people, it works really well.


The sites I tried weren't the greatest, though. I quit online dating for now...I am not looking for a date at all at the moment; just working hard at my two careers and trying to advance myself financially.


I guess the key to online dating is to hook up with the best site....one where people are for real and not goofing around, you know.

Posting stuff in online dating profile ?

Hi a friend of mine wants to post some stuff on a few on line dating websites . she is 24 , has no job she got fired, broke up with her boyfriend who is also the father of her 5 year old son , dropped out of college and is still living with parents . why is she still living with parents , cause they are overprotective and because she "sinned " by having her child out of wedlock . the reason why her and her boyfriend broke up was because of this and he now denies the child as his . believe me people she did not sleep with anybody else . anyway she wants some one else so , so she is trying online dating after her mother said to her your will never have another man again and saying that she should act like me . i am bisexual , but back to my friend , so should she do this or not after what her parents are doing?

Posting stuff in online dating profile ?
hey!





i think this story is bizarre and i really cannot offer any type of help on this except, i think your friend should prioritize her life. i don't think a date should be one of her first concerns...





just my own opinion!





Karry
Reply:It's not easy to say. That depends.
Reply:No offense, I think that her priorities are mixed up. Truthfully, I think she should be more concerned about getting a job and filing child support for her son, AND THEN she can continue to date. Okay, if she had a job, and lived on her own, her parents' opinion really wouldn't matter, cause she is taking care of herself and her son. As for the jerk, just get a parenity test and leave him be. Until she unravels all that mess, then she could go for online dating.

What do you think of online dating sites?

Has anyone here had experience with Match.com? Or any other dating site that gives you the option of looking for same-sex dates?





I'm a pretty old-fashioned girl who is just about petrified of the online-dating scene. I'm starting to sloowwwly look into it as an option for down the road. I'd like some feedback from people who have actually used such sites.





What site did you use? What did you like about it? What didn't you like? Did you meet some nice people? Would you recommend that site to someone else?





I'm looking for sites that aren't highly sexualized... you know, the ones where everyone's profile is focused on sex, and the pics are of people barely dressed? Yeah I don't want those types of sites. Like I said, I'm old-fashioned. :) Sex is good. Sex is great. Sex is just not my thing on the first date.





Thanks ahead of time for your answers.

What do you think of online dating sites?
On the free sites you'll always find those profiles that center on sex but you can normally weed them out quickly by their head lines. I've had success on yahoo's personals, true(dot)com, planetouts personals and rainbowspace but I don't think rainbowspace exsists anymore. If you want something that's more professional etc then do a search for executive lesbian dating.





I like yahoo the best. I got responces from a more interesting group of women then the other sites. True tended to be the source of much laughter. The overall quality of the women I dated from yahoo personals was far superior to true. I didn't have as much luck at planetout but rainbowspace is where I met my current gf of 7 months. It was like picking a needle from a haystack since the majority of women on rainbowspace seemed to be 16-18 and looking for HOT StUdz.





If you see a profile you like just shell out the cash to be able to comunicate with that person and do so. I recomend speaking with them online/phone for a week to a month before meeting so you can feel her out. You should be able to tell from that wether they would be looking for sex on the first date or not. Most of the women I dated from yahoo weren't looking just for sex and the majority of the time it turned into a relationship.





Hope this helps!
Reply:I met two people from Match.com and another on Yahoo personals - They were both decent sites - but I didn't want to pay for them so I just added a little "secret" code for people to figure out in my profile so they'd just email me when they figured out the address. There weren't a lot of same-sex people on either place but I think that's more associated with where I live then the website itself. Of the three people I met from there - they were all decent nice people - hit it off with two of them but nothing panned out aside from a few times that we hung out.
Reply:I don't trust online dating sights or chat rooms for the simple reason that it is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too easy to lie to the other person on them. Stick to doing things the old fashioned way and forget the websites, to me they are nothing but T-R-O-U-B-L-E!!!!
Reply:In the 18th and 19th centuries, many people were introduced to others by mutual friends who travelled. In some well known cases where their letters still exist, long distance romances blossomed by letters alone. They fell in love and chose to marry without _ever_ seeing each other's faces through the courtship and romance.





I don't see any difference between that and online dating. What's wrong with meeting someone by words alone and judging them by their intelligence, by how they talk to you, and not on their face or physical appearance?





Twenty years ago (I'm showing my age now) "want ad" dating was for the desperate, but then, twenty years ago, people had more free time and commuted less. Today, the lack of personal time and the extra distance means less chance to socialize.





Online dating is especially useful in big cities where it's hard to meet people or in countries where arranged marriages and introductions were common. I have lived in several Asian countries where matchmakers (sometimes paid and sometimes not) would introduce "suitable" young people to other potential spouses. Such arrangements used to be common.





If you watched the first season of the TV show "Lost", that is what happened between Sun and the bald Korean man (in the flashback). It's still common today. I lived there for three years and worked with several women who were married through such arrangements. More and more young Koreans are doing it on their own through dating sites, and the older generation approves of it.





For people who live in foreign countries (I and other westerners I know, for example) online dating is a good way to make friends, not just find love and marriage. You can meet other foreigners who live in the country, or you can find the locals who speak your language without having to wade through the bar scene amongst hundreds you can't talk to. I haven't found anyone worth marrying, but I have met people I continue to be friends with.





What matters is how one approaches online dating, because it's exactly the same as meeting people in person. If you're desperate offline, you'll be desperate online. If you're outgoing, friendly and attractive to others offline, you'll be outgoing, friendly and attractive to people online.





If your purpose in online dating is to save time (eg. you have long working hours) and weed out people by traits (eg. I'm an atheist and don't want to meet christians), then it's useful. If your purpose is to hide something else about yourself, it's not going to work.

How safe is online dating?

I met this guy on the internet four months ago (through YM) and two months ago - we started dating. We're really close, but a lot of my friends are wary of our relationship - which brings me to ask, how safe is online dating? And what can be done to make sure that it's safe?





I love him a lot though, and I do not doubt a single moment with him. He's been pretty truthful with me and I know I can trust him, but this is just a general question. BTW, we're meeting in September and I can't wait. =)

How safe is online dating?

Reply:It's probably as safe as any other method. Like any other venue, always do your homework on people.
Reply:well it all depend on how much information u have given to him. If he demands for excessive info then something must be wrong. however, it may also seem that he wanted to know more abt u so the best way is to follow your feeling towards him and decide the destiny. Also, u may need to prepare yourself when u meet him as i suppose u have not seen his apperance
Reply:Well my mom found a guy from the chat line and still with him after 4 years.
Reply:Online dating isn't as dangerous as meeting a guy in a grocery store. You don't know anything about him just through appearance alone, he may very well be a child molestor. So I'd say, go for it. Just make sure that when you meet him that it is in an open/public area and that your friends and family know that you're meeting him. Maybe you can get one of them to tag along.
Reply:it is 50% safe and 50% unsafe.you may never know his real character.perhaps he is faking it.but if you feel his truthful to you then you can continue it.

Reply:i dint even have to read your little story, it is very dangerous! i stay as cofidential on here as possible!! i repeat very dangerous!! be careful my friend!!
Reply:It's safe as long as you do not reveal to much of yourself before you feel ready (ie name, address) Always meet in a public place until you feel comfortable. It's really all about trusting your instincts.
Reply:safer than real life
Reply:I meet my boyfriend online about 8 months ago and i couldn't be happier. All my friends thought I was crazy at first, but after awhile they saw how wonderful he was. You always have to protect yourself, so just be safe and have fun.
Reply:Online dating really isn't much less safe than dating someone you met in person. Either way, you're taking a chance on a random stranger. The big difference is that online, people can blatantly lie about who and what they are, although to a lesser degree, that can be done in person, too.





Either way, some basic safety tips can help you get through the first date. Don't give out your address. Arrange your own transportation, instead of driving there together, so you can leave separately (and quickly, if necessary). Meet some place public, like a coffee shop or restaurant, so you can talk and get to know each other, but you're not alone where things can get uncomfortable.





Be careful, but don't let fear get in the way of meeting someone who might be perfect for you. Life is all about taking chances, and a little bit of caution can go a long way.
Reply:not safe
Reply:I think it's a good thing that you're meeting. That way you can make sure that he really is who he pretends to be. I'm very wary about online dating. On the internet, it's easy to hide your negative sides and to pretend you're someone you aren't.





But yes, I hope things work out for you.
Reply:How are you dating if you haven't even met yet? It's impossible to be sure that you are "really close" if it has all been online, or even if there have been phone conversations, it is TOO easy to be deceptive. I would be very cautious.

What makes a great online dating picture?

I'm asking for two reasons - first, because I'm always torn between the smiling friendly shot and the serious reflective one. This is for my own profiles on dating sites.





Also, because I've started a forum helping with online dating, and I'd like to share some of the answers over there. It's called gr8-dating,com. thanks.

What makes a great online dating picture?
I think the smiling friendly shot seems nicer unless it's a professionaly taken photograph. Also, I think it's better when you can clearly see the person's face, rather than just their whole body and then a blurry/unclear face.





Edit:


Oh, but if you're a guy, maybe being too smiley isn't as good. Just try and look cool is all, if that helps any.
Reply:I think any picture with you smiling would be better than a serious mug... Save the seriousness for a resume or something.


Is there an online dating service for gays similar to eHarmony.com?

eHarmony is based on a common sense approach to realistic dating for HETEROSEXUALS ONLY.





Online gay dating sites are almost always geared towards sexual encounters. Those that claim otherwise are far less sophisticated than eHarmony.

Is there an online dating service for gays similar to eHarmony.com?
I would try Yahoo! Personals. It's like eHarmony, etc. but doesn't have a straight only policy. A friend of mine met her girlfriend there and they're very happy together:-)

Reply:It sounds like you're just looking for someone who is similar to you, and that's not necessary from a relationship perspective. I have very little in common with my partner, yet we get along fabulously. That's probably why I think all those things are silly anyway. Report It



Are women on the online dating services genuinely seeking longterm relationships or casual ones?

I for one am looking to find someone longterm and kinda hesitant about online dating and the stigma attached to it. Would be nice to hear what ladies are looking for on these online dating services. Thank you in advance.

Are women on the online dating services genuinely seeking longterm relationships or casual ones?
for the real ones looking out there.. you would have to ask them... some say they are looking for ltr; some for casual... some might even put right in their profile "no clue what I want"





everyone is different.. everyone is looking for something; it is not as cut -n- dry as a general 'be nice to hear what ladies are looking for'





hmmm... desperate huh? no... some of us are just that shy... but hiding behind a screen, an online persona, and words we can be ourselves and get to know others...





stigma attached to it should only be from your own personal experiences... not others... word to the wise; just as in any other forum/venue - people will lie here too.. how many times I saw liars at bars, church, school, blind dates... please.. it is not just here.. it is just more difficult to detect at times...





thank you for taking the time to read this


have good day


good luck with your search
Reply:These days there really isnt a "stigma" attached to online dating. A lot of people live in rural areas or work in places where they cant meet other people so online dating provides an excellent opportunity. As far as what people are looking for, that will depend on the individual, and you will have to ask. Thats the same as the "real" world. Dating is dating..and it is somewhat like hunting..you have to seek until you find what you are looking for.


Good luck!
Reply:I met my bf online. I told him I was looking for a long term relationship right away.He was looking for the same thing and we clicked.However, many people online are not telling the truth, be careful and make sure to exchange enough messages before meeting in person. Good luck.
Reply:both
Reply:match. com has worked out pretty well for some people I know
Reply:I do believe that women are looking for longterm but they do not want to fall into the same trap they did when they left the last relationship.So there very careful not to make the same mistake and they tend to take there time and really see who there with and not rush into anything. They keep there options open and take as much caution as it does not to waiste time and have another BAD relationship ...Happy Hunting love will come to you
Reply:A big part of it depends of which online dating site you are on. Some sites lean more towards casual dating, while others are geared towards meeting people for more longterm relationships.





I agree with another person's answer that the stigma is a lot of your own personal bias. Currently, everyone from people in small towns to professionals in large cities with busy schedules use online dating services to find significant others. Yes, just like in every other dating realm there are people who are not telling the truth. Just like walking into a bar on a crowded Saturday night and meeting a woman who took off her wedding ring and tells you she is single, there are women who may not tell the truth online. The only way to 100% protect yourself from things like that is to never try...both online and offline.





There is a new site that just came out that is really cool! http://abe5.com/1kx They match people based on compatibility and passion. So they ask you questions up front (kind of tedious, but DEFINITELY worth it!), and then (this is one of the parts I LOVE) they use your answers to pick out potential dates that match up with what you're looking for. So you don't have to search through hundreds of profiles, they do it for you. Then everyday those potential dates are sent to your inbox, and you give feedback on whether you love who they're sending you or not. THEN they take your feedback and continue to update what you're looking for until the people they're sending you are all exactly what you're looking for. It's very cool, and worth checking out.





If you are worried about fake profiles, this site pre-screens their applicants (so they're basically pre-screening your dates!) http://abe5.com/1bp Sign-up is free, and when people sign-up, they have to provide a telephone # to be verified and pre-screened by the online singles site! No one under 25 is allowed.





So there are some options for you to check out. Good luck in your searches!
Reply:There are definitely women looking for long term realtionships on the online dating services. Probably the majority are actually praying to find one. Otherwise, why bother signing up, afterall they're aware of the stigmas as well.





note: there are women players as well so just be very careful with whom you give your heart.
Reply:i m realy shy n dont go out much so i meet my bf from online we just started talkin as chatters then finally we meet after 3 years n now we r plannin to get married yes there are many liars in the internet mosty r men ..men pretnding they r women ... men pretnding they are single etc etc but there r some women who r liars too so be careful u have to know the person well
Reply:They're desperate - they'll take anything they can get.





Just like the men on those services.
Reply:They are mostly 13-year-old boys pretending to be women.


Is online dating good or bad?

I am seriously considering online dating


i cant find anything in any girl that is near my area that i would ever go out with


i need to no if this is good or bad


please let me know!


if it makes a difference i am in my early teens

Is online dating good or bad?
Good, absolutely! My best friend has found his perfect through a dating site called millionairecupid.com. He told me he can never meet her if he hadn't try online dating.
Reply:By early teens I may assume under 16 which online dating is usually reduced to meaningless flirting. Online dating can be just as, but being in your early teens it limits your ability to go out and actually make it a real good a venue as any other onerelationship then as said simply flirting.





Also I know how it sounds, but your coming off as if you HAVE to have a girlfriend, your doing this for the wrong reason it seems, because if your simply just trying to get a girlfriend but still have serious standards your going to end up with nobody.
Reply:mostly it's not good... how do you know if the person you chat with male or female....cute or bad... sweet or ugly.... it's definitely lies..
Reply:There's nothing wrong with exploring your options, but you are pretty young. You never know who's online and it could be a 40 year old man who likes little boys trying to act like a young girl. I would stay away from online dating and just give it some time, don't rush trying to find someone. Like everyone probably is already telling you "you'll find someone when you are least expecting it".





If you are determined to do some online dating, then perhaps you'll need to do your homework and search around for a site that caters to young adults such as yourself. Try http://www.onlinedatinglist.info/ but remember, just take your time. Good luck.

For online dating do you have to make the move quick?

I've been talking to a couple girls I met from online dating sites. Do they lose interest quick or will leave you hanging once they find or talk to a better looking or better guy?


We exchange aim, how often should I IM them once I see them on. I see them on all the time.

For online dating do you have to make the move quick?
As frequently as you can. If you do not talk with many days, they will forget you soon.





When you are familar, then try offline contact.





Be careful of your privacy before you meet them face to face. Some users are not serious of dating at all.





More tips:
Reply:Most will loose interest in a couple of days. Some will gradually loose interest a few weeks into things. Generally, there are a lot more men than women on online dating sites (at least the ones I have been on) so some women get so many messages from different people that it just isn't realistic to keep up with all of them. I still shudder thinking about getting 94 mails in my first day on one site, from more than 30 different guys. It's just an overload.





If they like you enough, and they're seriously looking to date rather than just signing up for the sites because they're bored (you eliminate that problem usually by using paid sites, as people won't pay for something unless they care to use it)... then they will keep talking!





I've been talking to my boyfriend for three months, the past two of which we've been dating. We met online. I keep up still with two other guys from online sites though I've made it clear that I am in a relationship now and just consider them friends.





So really, it just depends on the girl, and on how much she likes you.





IM them a couple times a week maybe. See how often or how quickly they respond to your emails if you're emailing as well; generally if they're online all the time but they don't email you back often or quickly, then they're not as interested and you shouldn't IM as often. And if they start initiating IM chats, then obviously you can IM more often...
Reply:Dating girls online is no fun and I did like this one girl I was dating online and she dumped me on the second day because she said a boy asked her out in real life. Wait because I'm not done yet, I also had girls that disapeared out of nowhere to never IM me again. You know what just don't. It's a waste of time in the long run (Unless you get really lucky) I still have hope that I might meet a good one online but for now I think I learned that searching for chicks in reality is the better overall choice

me personaly it has worked out well i met my girlfriend from online dateing and i have never ever been happier, it is just as good/bad as going to a bar you don't know for sure until you get to know the person, you can meet ******'s any where!
Reply:I met a really terrific guy online %26amp; we had two fantastic years together but he broke up with me last week. I don't


regret for a second the relationship %26amp; I think having met him online was really cool. I don't know a lot of other folks who've done that, so it was unique.
Reply:On line dating is very good for Health and Wealth.


No need of money.


No need to worry about health.


No one know who you are in real.





I don't think there is any bad point.





Enjoy
Reply:Well i met a girl from the internet. Long story short i deeply regret the decision to meet this girl. she will not leave me alone. shes psychotic, and i just wanna get away from her. so id say its a bad idea.
Reply:my cousin met her husband online..


i personally wont do it...it just seems so weird...i guess i'm old fashion gotta meet the person inperson first
Reply:I've never tried it, but I think it's not not worth it. What's the point? If you can't see, touch, feel the person...I don't see how that's worth,
Reply:It can be good and most definately fun cause you have some one to talk t, but if you get serious it becomes a pain in the ***. So many desires and so many temptations make it super hard for stuff to work. Online is a great place to meet someone but you're better off with somebody in your area. Unless the other person can visit you or you can visit them.
Reply:nowadays its the way to meet people but its not considered dating
Reply:Its the best way to make new freinds its really good .Its all fun and worhty

Does online dating sites really works?

A lot of online dating women are really "stuck up"! I've written very nice emails, I think my profile is good, I'm a nice guy...but how can I get more women to reply?

Does online dating sites really works?
I am wondering with your name title if you're trying to do online dating or attempting to gain sexual favours online?


Sadly, a lot of men are now using online dating services as a way to get out of paying for a prostitute thinking they can score readily and easily - however, most women are pretty keen on spotting this behaviour. (sorry guys, but it's the truth)





If you really do only want to meet for dating purposes - possibly you're not putting your best foot forward when speaking to these women so they are passing you by?





Pretend you're in a job interview and you've only got one chance to make that impression, then put your best self forward - if you're honest and sincere you will eventually meet someone compatable.
Reply:I think it depends what you are looking for! Just like any other way of dating... it takes sorting through a TON of weeds before you find a flower!
Reply:it does work very well but if you get some one who doesn't believe in that then you can't get her. But if you want a tryer, you can try me with your sister if you have one. we will give you the better examples you want.
Reply:Don't display any trace of independent thought.
Reply:From my experience, I think online dating sites works, but takes time and efort to really dig the right one out, be patient, make women feel you are honest and serious, here is a good site to find more tips at online dating http://www.datingonline123.com/

Passionate online dating?

i have a friend, she has been together with a guy since 1 year but they never saw eachothers yet they are dating online and telling themselves that they gonna meet, 1 year later guy began to send more sexual messages like sex you know! so they began to msg each other like that, now the girl thinks that maybe he is using her what you gonna say? ps: he always talks about marriage also

Passionate online dating?
Of course she thinks he’s using her.





She is using this extremely long distance “relationship” to avoid reality. As long as she has this she doesn’t have to excuse the fact that she isn’t dating anyone. It’s convent for her not to be disappoint by who he real is or vice versa. I can’t say why she is avoiding a real physical relationship but she is. I think even if he hadn’t started a sexual tone, she would have flaked as soon as he pushed for anything else more. This is just a good excuse for her!
