What do you think about online dating?

It does not make you desperate because you made a friend on the internet. Meet in a public place though and if you two decide you do like one another be careful until she is 18. Just go on dates and get to know one another better.

I think online dating is worth a shot, but you need to make sure to keep your expectations in check.  Personally, I've met two great guys through online dating and probably 50 not-so-great guys in between.  It can work; and it does sometimes.  I dated a guy I met online for 3 years and he wanted to get married, but I wasn't ready.  Then I met a different guy who I dated for a year and a half.  So yes, it is worth trying; I was only 19 when I met the first guy...  I don't know if someone who's 25 and really serious about dating will want to date someone who is 19, but you never know, where you are in life is more important than age anyway.

Yes it is.  In my situation I have met someone in a on line dating service.  We met several months ago, after many prayers, and searching.  He and I basically complete each other.  It is possible, but when it comes to Internet dating, always be careful.

I did match.com..actually dated the first guy i met up with for a few months..recently ended. Basically we emailed, then IMed, talked on the phone and finally met. It was good for a while, just didnt work out. I would say worth a try. Just get as much info before you meet up so you dont waste your time.\n\nIts kind of nice because you can reject and even block guys if needed so it makes it easier to weed out the ones you like. And if they reject you its not as harsh as in person and theres a bunch of other guys so you wont really think twice if one doesnt write back. \n\nworth a try.

I don't think there is a diffrence. I liked talking to guys on here first so i could get to know them first and then meet them. I know people would probably think i am crazy but i met my husband on the internet. If i had never been in that chatroom i wouldn't have the good man i have today. Most people say that only ugly people online date but i think that is f**king crazy. Don't worry about what people think its your life and you may meet the man of your dreams...

i don't think it will ever work unless you meet and actually hit it off in real life. Some people are different when you talk to them on the net and when you talk to them in real life.

No, I wouldn't let it come between us. Eventually, one person would relocate, but that's just logistics. Hummm...about meeting someone online? I guess it would depend where you met them. Typically people you run into in chat rooms or on free sites don't tend to be of the same quality (or want the same things out of a relationship) as people who use paying services.

I think it's a great way of reconnecting with old friends. It's a social website where you can share a little bit about your personality. I've known people to hook up from myspace.  \nAs with any online website, I advise that you take caution because not everyone is who they appear to be.

I haven't had ANY luck with any online anything as far as dating goes. Not sure why. Meet somebody in person who lives near you I think. Maybe who shares a hobby or two with you. Women should try fishing. Men should do ballet. You would be in a 50 to 1 situation.

YESSSSSSSSS there is one that i know of.  it's called plentyoffish.com and it's website is www.plentyoffish.com.  it's free to make a profile and free to contact other members.  it's a really good dating site b/c it is basically what the pay site would offer but it is free.  the problem is that since it's off the internet everyone is soo cautious that it is easy to chat online but nearly impossible to go out on a date.  i found meeting people through friends or even randomly at local bars is much better than internet dating.\n\nonce again your answer is yes and the site is www.plentyoffish.com  if you join you must be nice to all otherwise dont bother.

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?

Rule number 1, for some strange reason the walls of being civil just tottally fall down online. Rule 2 assume that everyone is not who they say they are, if your wanting to start dating online then REALLY get to know the person before you meet, I mean talking online and on the phone. The Internet is like a box a chocolates you never know what your gonna get. ( yeh thats cheesy so.... lol)

Finding someone interesting is possible, but a crush or liking someone, no not for me. I am a social being like most humans should be. I need actual face time. I'm only online to assist people with their questions. I don't use the net to meet people. You never know who you're dealing with and what their alterior motives are. Be safe not sorry.

Many. I've had several friends that I met on the Internet for up to 12 years now. I've met many of them in real life, sometimes meeting up with a group of us for a weekend vacation. Several others I've met when one was nearby for some reason or other.  I've also dated two of the women I've met on the internet and had a great relationship with both.( note: I knew each for a couple years before we started dating)\n\nThe internet can be used as just another extension of communicating and I see little problem with meeting people that I've become friends with.

It does work and people do meet.  However online dating is reputed for people lying about their age, weight, showing old pictures and/or what job they have ($ they make.)  There are, I'm sure, hundreds of games played.  And also many sincere people looking to meet.  \n\nHope this helps.

I met my now husband online, we lived 4 hours apart, and saw each other 2 times a month for 2 years.  I think it makes it easier to get to know people, and brake if off if needed.  I had a way to get the good guys from the losers, and it always worked.  Right away I would ask for a picture of their private man area, and if they sent one to me, it showed they were pigs.  First that they had thoughs pics to send, and that they would sent them so easily.  \nSure online dating is difficult, but then again, so is dating in the real world.

my bf i met on answers. it's going great. other guys i've met online....and we went out for a while. so i'm not opposed to meeting someone online as long as you know in time you'll meet each other. it IS possible to fall in love this way. :)
