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

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

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

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


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

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.
