I thought it was mainly a teen and pedofile attraction but I found out my ex sister-in-law who is like 43  and has 4 kids has a profile on there and so does her boyfriend who is also in his 40's. My niece (she's 15 and goes on there all the time) said there are a bunch of older people on there. Does this seem pathetic and maybe a bit narcissitic? I mean all you do on there is talk about yourself, right? If you want to find a special someone you go to an online dating service. What the hell?

It's not intended to be for kids or perverts only.  It's intended to be a networking site as a way for people to communicate and keep up with one another.  It just happens that it took off for younger people quicker then it did for others.

Lol - read the silly offers & then just delete them\n\nI asked a random IMer today what possess these guys to just start IMing a person who they don't know...\n\nHe said that it's like fishing men just throw out a net & hopefully they'll catch something...\n\nFor some reason he didn't group himself in with Losers, Psychos or Guys without a Life... hhmm wonder why that was\n\nOne pice of advice is to take your photo off of your profile & use an avatar instead, then you won't be bothered by these losers who can't get a date in real life & so therefore hope to get one online

They are all pretty good. Personally I do not care for myspace and wish they would shut that one down.  Yahoo personbals is where my dad found alot of his female friends. Yahoo runs a respectable site for personals and doesnt charge for using it. Just keep in mind thoug, anyone can say anything on the computer but it is how that person is once you meet that tells the tale

Well, I've met a few.  We didn't click.  It's kind of funny. Alot of them post pictures of themselves when they were much younger, and when you finally meet them, they are much older, but they tell themselves they still look the same.\n\nThere are alot of game players there as well.\n\nA FREE sight is:  www.plentyoffish.com\nOR\nan cheaper one is: www.singleparentmeet.com\n\nGood luck.  Hope your in an area where you have a bigger selection than I do.

"pedophiles click here" will get you lots of unwanted attention.  Um, for the record I'm joking...please don't use that....too many sick old men go trolling on myspace for young kids.

not me. i think its pretty dumb. many questions are like "is there guys/grils in (blah)? want to go out with me"\n\nthose are like soo annoying. Its like dont lyou know that its not safe meeting strangers on the internet? Also if you are a dating material then why not go to places where you meet new people?

little girl you shouldn't post a question like that you are too young to think about dating. Besides, all kinds of people (predators) are on this site. Enjoy being a kid & worry about dating later.

Perhaps age could be shown as part of the profile...........I think the spelling stuff could be reflective of the pervasiveness of Text Messaging - where whole words are reduced to #'s & 1 letter.   I agree that it is excrutiatingly difficult to read some of the stuff posted!

I am in my 20's and scared for all these people under 16 trying to find boyfriends on line.  They need to enjoy their childhood not be looking for love.  Its dangerous.  I am suprised how many young people are on here.

Irene....one thing you dont do on here is tell you name and age lol    Secondly you go into Yahoo games and you will find lots of free games but watch out for the dom on here...doms (dirty old men  lol)  other people call them weirdos.omg!!!!

hello , i have a free datingsite and i may know what is the problem,\n\n- dating site put a lot of fake women profile to hide the fact that they have 4-8 times more men than women\n- women get a lot of messages specially if they have a photo around 10-100 week depending on sites , so practically a women uses a site for a week before finding someone but then it depends on what criteria she made the choice\n\ni have a free french dating site (soon i'll publish the english version)\ni use the technique of adding 5-10 girls just to take off , but other sites go all the way creating hundreds and even thousands of fake girls . after all they are charging so they try to trick you in anyway , my site is in the reference (english version very soon)

I used to use it about 7 years ago all the time, phased out of it about 5 years ago, then a couple of weeks ago I was bored so downloaded it again and searched for people and the only people i could find where people leading me to adult chat sites. Couldnot find one normal person online! so i suggest deleting it!

It sucks!!! I had it and I accidently deleted everything on it so I just decided to delete the whole thing. I think it was built for adults but teens took over. Plus 75% of the people on their lie about themselves. I no this because there are so many people in my school that are freshmen that say their like 20 so honestly whats the point? You don't really find out about people anyway and a bunch a people have been raped and stuff because of it. Share your info with your friends and forget about MySpace. It's just a place for teens to waste their time anyway because we have nothing else to do but hang out with friends and talk about people with our pathatic lives (lol)!

No, this is not a stupid question. This is a very informative question, I think. What gripes me even more than the amount of truly ridiculous and pointless questions on here are the amount of truly unhelpful, immature, and unnecessary comments left behind by some of the answerers. In the Dating section, everything you see is, "Is 14 too old (to have sex)," or "You are a Dooshbag" or "Girls don't date dickheads," etc. My guess is that some of these "people" in general are just obnoxious kids who are born one among twenty, and aren't really raised like they should be and will say anything mean and then sit back and laugh about it.

I've met a lot of people on a dating website.  Some guys are just on it to find some girl that they can have sex with.  Some guys are on there to find mr/mrs right.  I have met both types.  I met my current boyfriend off of a dating website, and I can see me being with him for the long haul.  We talked a fair amount online, then we started chatting on MSN, and then we talked ont he phone.  It sounds a little funny but our first date, wasn't that much of a normal date (movie/coffee), I needed a lift to our mall, cause my vehicle was busted and needed to get fixed and he offered me the ride.  We have almost been together ever since and talk every day.  You just have to be careful, and don't let the bad ones ruin it for you.
