What is your opinion and or experience. Also, any special tips you have let me know. I live in an area where the only social arena's are the few clubs we have here and that is tricky meeting people at the club. Truthfully alot of those men are married or not looking for long term (if u know what I mean). I attend church regularly but it is not easy to meet anyone there either since we are hearing the sermon then immediatly leaving. Unless of course I should be flirting during the sermon (whoa).
Help, Tired of being single Internet dating is scary, has anyone had good exper. internet dating? Please share
if that pic is of u u shouldnt have too much trouble gettin a date off the internet, just make it obvious u want one... haha i thought girls dint go with me bcause i was ugly or somethin but once i blurted out "WHY THE HELL CAN'T I GET A GIRLFRIEND!?!?!?" all the sudden i have em lined up... unfortunately i had to turn the line down because i couldnt date em all at once lol. so maybe u can do the same with guys "DATE ME DAMNIT!!!!" lol
Reply:I have never personally done the Internet "dating" thing, however I have met people in person (both male and female) who I originally got to know over the Internet.
Try to think of it as looking for friends rather than a relationship, that way there's no pressure on either side and if it develops into more then that's great.
Take along time to get to know someone over the Internet, many e-mails and if possible conversations over some IM software such as msn or yahoo.
If you do decide to meet someone make sure you do it in a very public place for the first time, like a a restaurant, if they have lied about anything obvious probably best not to meet them again.
Personally I have never had any bad experiences from meeting people over the Internet, but that might just be because I'm a guy. Just exercise caution and common sense, you should be fine.
Good Luck.
Reply:Okay we sound alot alike, i started dating this guy over the internet and it was the best time of my life and no one has ever treated that way....but it ended with my heart broken, he ended up leaving me for another women and i really hurt alot, girl dating over the computer is sooo hard, especailly to trust them but you know what i dont regret it! and we are still friends, so it depends, not all guys are the same but if you do, just keep your guard up and please dont rush things....and does your church have like fellowships or get togethers, or like groups of some sort for singles....cause i know that some churches do, but just keep your head up and the right will come along! But remember you will probably find a better man in a church than in a bar.....try going on a christian/or whatever you may be website for singles....Girl i know the feeling, cause I'm on the same boat!!! **** LUCK!!!!!!!!
Reply:I live in a big city, where there's a lot of possibilities. Dated a LOT of guys, but couldn't really find what i was looking for.
Funny thing, I got a my space account and met many different people, but this one guy was so fun that I couldn't resist to meet him.
We met at a public place a few times. After a month, I fell for him, we're now engaged and happier than ever. I'm not saying that you should stick to online relationships, but it sure helps ;)

Reply:Look at it this way: Internet dating is no more or less dangerous than meeting people in a club or at a party. You start talking to a person without knowing much about them, and take it from there. If you get a weird vibe - leave, and it's over. You have to exercise your common sense no matter where you meet people; often they put up a front, and might not be what they appear to be. This can happen whether you meet someone online or in real life - you still have to be on guard, analyze the situation, and look for the warning signs.
I'm not gonna say that online dating is an "easy" way to meet people (but then, what IS an "easy" way?) It has its setbacks. After my divorce, I spent four years meeting guys through the internet personals; this was the only way for me to meet compatible folks, as I am an unsocial person with very few friends, working for a very small company, and with interests like reading, history, science, videogames (ok, I'm a geek, I admit it! lol) Not at all the outdoorsy, hiking, biking, active adventurous type that my place of residense is famous for (So CAL). Most relationships I've found ended up not working out - but I kept telling myself, it only takes one. I met my future husband just over 2 years ago, within 3 months we were living together, and we got married 6 months ago. If it wasn't for the internet personals, our paths would never have crossed. His interests and his social reality are very similar to mine; we "clicked" immediately, and are very happy together. I would encourage you to give internet dating a try. If after you'd gone out on a few dates you still don't feel it's for you - then take your ad down, no harm done. But you will never know 'til you try. Meeting new people can be very challenging - however, the ultimate goal (finding someone compatible) is worth the challenge. Good luck.
P.S. Personally, I have never met a person online (either for friendship or for a relationship) who had obviously misrepresented themselves. To my knowledge, I have never met any serial killers, married guys posing as single, America's most wanted and the like. Most guys I went out with were just regular guys who were interested in a relationship, but with whom I either had no "chemistry" or we ended up not being compatible in some way. Just my personal experience.
Reply:I can say that internet dating has worked for me since I met my boyfriend online. I have been dating him for a year now and things couldn't be better. With internet dating you have to be careful and use your common sense when dealing with these men. Read between the lines of what they are telling you--if you don't feel like something is right, trust your instincts. Good luck.
Reply:Girl you better pray!!!! If you do it!!
Reply:I have had fair success with internet dating. Out of 9 guys, I liked 2 and had relationships and both are my friends to this day. You wont know until you take a chance.......be safe though. I always got a home AND a cell number, I never had anyone come to my house, always meeting them at a public place and I always gave my best friend their phone numbers too, just in case. Good luck.

Reply:Don't do it, everyone I know thats tried got screwed.
Reply:Try a personals on-line. Be sure %26amp; list "goes to church regularly" as a must on the profile you're looking for. I dated jerks for years after my divorce. I didn't think I would ever find anyone. As skeptical as I was about on-line dating, I tried it. After about a month, I met this wonderful man. I eventually felt comfortable enough giving him my e-mail address, then my phone number. He wanted to meet. I put him off for a while (people are crazy out there), but I had grown to know him so well through our conversations, why not. I made sure we met in a public place and several of my family members and friends knew when and where we were meeting. It has turned out to be the most fantastic thing that has ever happened to me. I am totally in love. The only problem in our otherwise perfect relationship is that we live about 3 hrs away from each other and it makes it kind of hard to see one another as much as we would like. So, go for it. Be careful. Be safe. Don't give out any personal information unless you feel totally comfortable and have a great time. You might just meet Mr. Right. Good luck %26amp; God bless.
Reply:I have to admit that I met my current (been dating a year now)b/f online. It was not easy as you say.. most are not what they claim to be. But it does happen. Have you tried one of the Christian dating sites? Most of them SHOULD be honest if on one of those. I choose not to disclose much about myself and let them ask what they felt was important to them and you can tell quite a bit from there what they are really after. I also believe that they should make the first moves as always. Make sure they can give you a number that you can call them at... one gave me his home number and his wife answered.
Reply:Are there any non-sermon church activities? Social things, fund raising events, classes, bible study, etc? Internet dating is both good and bad but it has been my experience that most of the guys are either married and looking to have an affair or just looking for a piece of tail, of which you are interested in neither.
I did meet one person thru the internet but we are just friends now. I have heard of some great success stories but I believe they are few and far between. I cancelled my membership and decided to put it in God's hands.......God clearly wants me to be alone for awhile ~ lol!!
I think when you are truly o.k. with yourself and really not hunting for a mate is when you are most likely to meet one. Not when you are all dressed up and looking hot - it's when your hair is in a pony and you look like crap searching for the perfect canteloupe in the produce dept. that you meet someone. That is God's little irony :-)
Reply:yes, u need to become member in yahoo group. or if you need paid one then go to some dting site . ok
Reply:IMO. internet dating is just like meeting someone off the street. People in general just lie. there are married men walking down the street everyday lying to women about being married.

Is internet dating safe?
I am 16 years old and I met this great guy on this website called espinthebottle.com We started emailing each other back and forth and than we started talking on the phone. 2 months ago,we became gf and bf...we've been trying to meet,but it hasn't happened yet. Now,he says this weeks he is coming down here to see me. I was so excited,but now that its' actually happened I am starting to feel a little nervous...any advice?
Is internet dating safe?
i don't think internet dating is very safe however some ppl would say different. you never know who that person really is and they could be playing games with you and then it all turns out bad.
However as you are already bf/gf and he's coming to meet you...make sure you meet him somewhere where there is alot of people around. if things go well and you want to invite him to your place, i would definitely have some friends come over too so you are not alone. don't trust anyone until you've personally known them for awhile and completey trust them, until then make sure someone is always around or at least let them know who you are out with and where you are going, etc. Better to be safe than sorry.
Good luck!
Reply:go with some friends and maybe a male friend and carry a cell phone.
Reply:First off, how old is this guy? And do you feel comfortable meeting with him by yourself? I would recommend you take someone with you (just to be safe). There are tons of pedophiles on the web that target young girls like you. Please make sure you take someone with you.
Reply:nervous...nah it's just adrenaline ....you have obviously gotten to know eachother quite a bit, once you get there it'll go smoothly and you'll feel more relaxed.
Reply:DONT. MEET. THAT. GUY.
If you want your life to be ruined, you can meet him if you want. Too many girls have fallen victim to this. Why don't you wait longer and talk to ur parents about this...
Reply:go see him.. but dont be alone..
bring somebody.. for a while.. and then
when you think 'ok' do a real date!!
gud luck!!
Reply:Until people have met and gone out (offline) together, they aren't dating. I have no issue with dating sites and people meeting that way before meeting offline to see if they 'click' as long as they use common sense and realize a lot of people online aren't who they pretend to be.
No, I don't think it wise for young people to use the net to meet strangers without their parents being 100% aware of the situation and all communication that is exchanged, and present if there ever is an offline meeting.
Reply:my best advice is to not do it. only because i've heard so many stories about perverts, molestors and rapists impersonate their kids, nefews and grandchildren to get young girls like you. Please be careful.
Reply:bring a whole bunch of girlfriends with you. you dont really know this guy. better be safe than sorry
Reply:make sure he is not over 18, and make sure your with some one you know when you meet him, just to be extra safe.
Reply:no dating is safe especially Internet dating.its like meeting a killer in the dark forest after he says I'm only gonna cut you a little.then he cuts your head off.oops that can and does happen all the time there are more crazy people then sane.why press your luck with creepy strangers.
Reply:you should never make a relationship commitment to someone you haven't met in person. by saying you are GF and BF, he now feels a sense of entitlement to you. you don't truly know a person until you meet face to face and have time to learn who they are. there is a huge amount of information you can learn about someone through non-verbal communication that will often times contradict what they are telling you.
do not meet this guy alone and only meet in a public place. you are still assuming you know this person but for all you know he could be a 45 year predator. the internet is about 90% molester/cheater/whore trash and young girls are the easiest prey.
make sure your parents know about this guy and in fact, have him come to your house and meet your parents. if he doesn't come, then he's probably been lying to you about himself or is some sort of predator. but seriously, don't meet this guy alone anywhere. if you have to, take some friends with you.
Reply:i think it's safe just not safe when you meet him cause he might be a lot older than you. you should go with a group of friends to meet him.
Reply:with how things are now and days, you'll want to be careful when you meet with him. you should be meeting him in a public place. in two months you became gf/bf, you may want to take it slower and see what happens when you meet. when i first met people online, i too was nervous and sometimes it doesn't click with that person and sometimes you end up with a friend for a long time. Either way, if you're careful how you meet and all, you'll be glad you did it. I met my now husband off of the internet 8 years ago last month and we are currently heading towards our 5th anniversary this year. GOOD LUCK and be safe!
Reply:say ur 18 he could be 30.
If you really wanna do this then..bring a friend.
I hate to see you on the news dead.

Have Internet Dating Sites worked for you?
If you've tried it, what was your experience like? Are they only for losers? Is it worth the payment?
Have Internet Dating Sites worked for you?
I have tried them since 1998 till the present. I have never met anyone, only been spammed, money taken, looked at losers, etc.
Just get on one and start to scroll through pictures. You will realize basic looking women and then like every 4th or what not is a hot chick. Every hot chick is a fake for a porn site or some type of spam issue.
And all the basics I have talked to have issues, 15 kids, 3 husbands, 2 ex's chasing them w/ shot guns, something, always something. More baggage than a semi could take.
I have been on free, paid, secluded, private ones, all the same when boiled down past the art n design work. I've paid least $300 over all my days and all I've ended up with a big fat nothing.
I've had more chance and luck in the old AOL chat rooms than any other place on meeting people. but now every chat room I have found is spam, porn over ran.
To me the days of meeting another online, or even finding one to chat with is bout impossible anymore. Sad, as this would of been the ultimate singles place if all the crap hadn't of destroyed it.
Reply:i think the guys are real losers im not sure but id save my money to take someone nice out
Reply:Haven't ever had the need. But I've heard good things from others.
Reply:They work fine. I haven't met the right woman for me on one or in real life but I've met some great women that way. Nope, they are not just for loosers.
Reply:Na, not worth it. People can easily lie about themselves and get away with it.
I even bet that most incoming adults most likley want to meet the parner of their dreams in person.

Does internet dating work?
I have been on personals for a few months and i have come to the conclusion that it does not work. Why do you think that's so? If we are all looking for someone on those sites you would think everyone would be hooking up.
Does internet dating work?
Looking for love in all the wrong places! You need to look for friends first then go from there.
Reply:It worked for me, I met my girlfriend over 8 months ago online. We just moved into our apartment together and are planning our future together. It works if you take it seriously and don't lie in your profiles. Just be honest and you could find the right one.

Is internet dating sleazy or a good way to meet people?
Sleazy, no.
Potentially unsafe, yes. Make certain that your first meeting is in a very public place, with perhaps friends unobstrusively in the background. Never go somewhere with them, that is in their car or a non-public place on the first date or until you start to get to know them.
Is internet dating sleazy or a good way to meet people?
It's not sleazy it is a good way to met people you just really have to be selective who you talk to and who u trust but not all people on the dating sites and internet sites are bad most of them are really good and are probably looking for the same thing that you are give it a try!! Good Luck
Reply:The result depends on the person who is met :) If one is lucky enough, he/she can meet a good person like me :P

Reply:Its both for the most part.
You could meet someone normal, but odds are slightly less.
Reply:Depends wich one you use. If you are serious try e-harmony or match.com. keep in mind, that every site will have some problem people; some have less. You just have to be careful.
Reply:depends on the person. I know a couple that met online he's from CA and she's from VA. I was at thier wedding 7 years ago....they are very happy and have a kid.

Does internet dating work?
It can work, it just depends on how honest each person is when they are setting up their profiles and then during their communcation with a potential "date." I have a friend who does computer dating all the time as she says she can tell a lot about a person from what they write, how they say things in their writing, etc. Though she never quite figured out the alcoholic.
good luck!
Does internet dating work?
Here's some food for thought. Just went to dinner with a friend of mine and 6 of her friends, one of them said that they met their current boyfriend through online dating. They've been together for 3 years and they are thinking of marriage. See, it can work! Good luck!! Report It
Reply:You go to Yahoo personals, look up chicks you are interested in, pay Yahoo a fee and get the chicks information.
My mother-in-law remarried someone that she was dating from the net. Yes, it does work!
good luck!

I have been talking to this guy for a couple of days and I really don't think that anything would go further than the e-mails and IM's. Not to say that we wouldn't meet or couldn't meet it's just right now we won't. any thoughts? please try to be serious.

I say it will only work if you two live in the same city (or relatively close). There is definetly no point in talking with someone across the country. So if you live in the same place, why not meet up for drinks or coffee after a while? For safety's sake, make sure you tell a few people exactly where you are going to be and that its with a guy youve never met. Anyways, good luck to you!
Everyone who is saying internet dating is not real: Its only not real if you never meet the person. Once you meet them in real life, how can you get more real than that??
Reply:It worked for me. I was on yahoo personals and match.com for about a year. During that time, I met about ten guys, mostly just had one date wtih each. Then I met a guy ten months ago who seemed really nice, but I thought we'd just be friends. Our friendship grew into a romantic relationship and I really feel lucky I met him. I would have never met him if I had not tried internet dating. A couple of his friends met their wives online, so I think there are some good success stories out there.
Best of Luck!
Reply:A good family friend of mine tried the internet dating and it worked for him. He is from Ca and she is from Va. She is also 15 years younger than him. Now, I tried it and the only thing I got out of it was the knowledge that being average looking, late 30's and not able to relocate because of finances has kept me off of the list of potentials. I am not unattractive by any means and I am still able to have children. But if they have a chance for someone prettier and younger, they will choose them over the rest. Also, how many of us can really relocate? I mean, if the man is going to support us until we find a job, that would be great. Also, I tried the Christain site and felt that I was not good enough. I thinlk for the most part, these sites don't produce too many couples. But friendships are good. Right?

Do not even think of meeting with anyone you have only talked to for a couple of days on the internet.
You don't say what you age is, but it doesn't really matter whether you are 16 or 60. You can not afford to put yourself on the line for someone you really have no facts about.
And if you ever do meet with him....take a big brother with you.

Reply:You cannot date on the internet. You have no idea if that person you are talking to is real, or just telling you everything you want to hear.
You have to meet and spend real time together to get to know someone.
Reply:I imagine this works for some people or they would not continue to do it. However, for me personally, I have no desire to meet someone over the Internet. this is very dangerous and they can act and portray anyone they wish to be. A very skilled person can pretend to be everything you want. I prefer to meet someone the old-fashioned way. Good luck and God bless*
Reply:yes to some. no to many
Reply:I have known two couples that have met online. One worked out, the other didn't but I guess that's the average for all relationships, regardless of how couples meet. The problem with online dating is that it is so much harder to figure out the real "him". He could be anyone. He could be a 55 year old pedophile with herpes. You never know. My advice would be to take the relationship part slow but arrange to meet him early on so you can get to know his personality in actual communicative terms versus virtual discussions. Meeting him earlier will also help slow yourself down emotionally. You wouldn't want to invest six months of falling in love with him via email and instant messaging only to have your heart broken when/if you find out he is married or a kleptomaniac. Meet him a few times for coffee, take in a game, become friends. Then see where it takes you. Good luck!

Is internet dating/ flirting with other people online a good thing?
Because you don't know who they actually are, maybe they are fake. And you can get easily hooked up on this. Perhaps you even waste all your hopes and time chatting to this fake person.

I have had a three women send me a pick of them that was years old when they was good lookin and I have had one send me a pic of her but was better lookin in person.

The company says so.
Do internet dating sites such as Singles 365 create many long term relationships?
I don't think so, most people who go on the net looking are just trying to find a safe way to cheat without really cheating. They do not want strings attached they just want some one to talk to.

Is internet dating a good way to meet a significant other?
I'm sure you can meet nice people online, but there are instances of deceit that outweigh genuine people online. I have met nice people online, but I would suggest never to make a relationship based on online conversations and picture swapping. Meeting face to face is always better, but do it in a public place, just to be safe....GL;)
Is internet dating a good way to meet a significant other?
Yes, but you need to be careful. Meet in person soon after meeting online. Don't go out with them again if they've lied on their internet profile. And if they haven't posted a picture on their profile, don't bother responding or writing.

Keep in mind that this may be someone you want to marry and spend your life with so you certainly don't want to rush into that.

the way u dress up shows your personality, if you dont weasr something good- its really not cool- dump him
Reply:I know what u are saying - its rather funny when u start imaging what the other person might be wearing while chatting. in real life you wud feel ashamed to be even seen anywhere near that kinda person but then thats the fun of chatting. You can talk as easily to a person in a coverall as to a naked one!
Reply:how do u see some one on internet
Reply:say what are u wearing!
stop dating that person.
Reply:NONE if it feels hoakey it is! There are a ton of crazies out there... internet dating is whacked

Is internet dating a good idea or is just the money they want?
Good idea if you and the persons on the site are serious and not lairs. Try to see how many users are actually signed up and paying before you commit to any service. Usually free services don't off as much "narrowing down" and "matching" as free ones. Plus, most paid ones give date feedback, thus you can rate your date. Things like that help a lot. Just because you run into odd ball people, doesn't mean you should stop pursuing this course. There are indeed odd people on internet web dating sites, but there are normal ones too. It's like going to a bar there's 10 weirdos out of 1 normal. So it's the same thing just a different setting. This can happen in any match making service, virtual (online) or not.

It could go either way. I see it as just another avenue to maybe find true love. For me so far so good. Just wish she'd communicate more.
Reply:most sites cost money, i would not suggest those. however, i met my fiance on a dating site. try this one... plentyoffish.com
its free!!!!
Reply:i wouldnt use a site that costs anything.. actually I have met quite a few people from myspace.. friends and such... and 1 person that I would like to get involved in... even if its not going to turn out romantic its definately a good way to meet new people...

Is Internet Dating worthwhile?
yes it is, you just need to be careful and use common sense!! I met my husband on line and know 4 people who have met their husbands on line, so it can work. Out of 5 couples, one of them is seperated, all the rest of us are doing very well!! not bad odds huh??
Is Internet Dating worthwhile?
I think it is. You can meet people from all over the world on here and make a real connection with them IF you are willing to be totally honest. Human nature is such that we naturally portray ourselves in the better light possible. But if you can tell people the truth and you are willing to accept that the other person wasn't necessarily lying to you but guarding themselves against potential hurts you might find something beautiful out there. It is important to meet in person but with the web cam and the microphone capabilities .... you have a tool that you don't have at a bar or singles group. Just use common sense and keep trying. I believe it is possible to find a soul mate on-line.

Does internet dating really work?
I've had good dates and bad... finally met my love online!
It wasn't a short trip, though. It took me a couple years, just like dating in the real world. Many people lie on their profiles about basic things like whether or not they are married or put up a picture that isn't theirs. Some people use the service because they lack social skills in person, or are simply looking for a cyber princess. Some people lie about their location because they are really overseas and trying to meet someone who will bring them into the country. (Those are fun. Ask them questions about whether or not they like the Macys store in Bennet Nebraska or where they claim to be from and enjoy the idiodic response.)
My biggest peeve was when people would respond to your ad without reading it. 95% percent of my responses were from guys who were obviously not whom I was looking for. Just like in a singles bar. (Beware of Eharmony. They pick your matches for you. At the time I tried it they wouldn't let me pick an age range, so was getting tons of matches from people who were way too old for me. I quit that quick!)My solution to that was to "hide" my profile most of the time and browse the guys' ads, and only make my profile public when I would have the time to sort through my inbox filled with junk responses.
Somewhere in all the clutter I met somebody who was made for me! Though we worked only a mile from each other, there's no other way we would have met.

Does internet dating work? i mean chat and matrimony sites, are they real?
i met a guy on an indian matramonial site, we seem to be hitting it off and he seems to be very honest and careing. we will meet in a week and see if we are compatable in real life not just from web and phone conversations. only problem is we live very far apart and one of us have to relocate. we both have good job so its hard to ask some one to scarafice his career but on the other hand i feel like i dont want to either.
any advice would be greatly apreciated on this matter. you can also email me at cnderellah@yahoo.com if you dont feel comfortable to reply out in the open.

Is internet dating real?Is there anyone who has really found his/her dreams come true in this respect?
I had a coworker, a classmate and a couple of people I knew by name do this. It works they all got married. But who knows if it really works and whether you just find someone equally as desperate. Is there passion, love, etc? Good question.

Is internet dating worth trying? I've done it with no results and I'm not sure if I'm doing this right or not
I've done it with no results and I'm not sure if I'm doing this right or not
Is internet dating worth trying? I've done it with no results and I'm not sure if I'm doing this right or not
In regards to whether its worth trying or not, sounds like you've already tried it. There really isn't a wrong or right way to do it except to be yourself, be honest about who you are and what you are looking for. And for pete's sake, don't put up old photo's, glamour photo's or any photo's that have been modified in any way. I can't tell you how many times I've met someone and didn't recognize them because of this. I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but when I find myself interested in someone online, one of the things that attracts me is their photo, not just their profile, e-mails or phone conversations. I'm not superficial, but I and I am sure everyone else feels the same, there must be some kind of physical attraction towards each other. By putting information or photo's of yourself that are inaccurate, what makes you think he's going to like you any better once he finds out. It is a form of deceit, which in my opinion wouldn't work anyway, because how would I be able to trust someone who has lied from the beginning. Don't try and force it, let it all work itself out. Online dating isn't for everyone, but it does give everyone the opportunity to meet people they would have otherwise never met through other means. It definitely is worth giving another shot, but that also means getting with an online service that is reputable. Match seems to be one that I have been the happiest with and have met some wonderful people. It wasn't until recently though that I met someone who I have talked to quite a bit through e-mail and phone conversations and eventually met in person. I am definitely very attracted and interested in her and that was because from what I've discovered about her is who she portayed herself as online and her pictures were current. My opinion is in regards to putting up pictures, upload those that you are happy with, but not the ones you really love so there will be an even bigger surprise for the person you meet, when you do so in person. Save some of the mystery for someone who is willing to take the time to get to know you. It is well worth the time and effort. Best of luck to you.
Reply:Depending on the site that you choose. It may be worth it. Just watch the theme behind the dating site.
Reply:I feel that it's not worth your time because you can't prove that the person is who they say they are. They may say that they are one peoson and they are a completely differnt person.
Reply:I found my fiance from the Internet. Yep so I gotta give it a big thumbs up! Be careful of meeting someone with just a few im's. Be cautious and question things that don't add up. Be guarded about close personal information, you don't really know who is on the other screen. And ask around your chat room with people you can trust about the one your interested in. Sooner or alter their true colors will come screaming through.
Reply:not worth it
Reply:hello , i have a free datingsite and i may know what is the problem,
- dating site put a lot of fake women profile to hide the fact that they have 4-8 times more men than women
- 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
i have a free french dating site (soon i'll publish the english version)
i 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)
Reply:I'm guessing that you're a guy. If you were a woman, you'd be getting more than your share of results. Mostly bad.
If you want to get results with internet dating, you go to the chat rooms and start a relationship. Talk about things that interest you. Don't ever start off your chatroom talk with "Hey, are there any single women here."
It takes time. Maybe a year or more to establish some trust. There are also some mixers of chatroom chatters that you can ususally go to where you'll meet some of the people in person.
It's all about establishing a relationship first and lots and lots of time.

Sooner or alter their true colors will come screaming through.
Reply:not worth it
Reply:hello , i have a free datingsite and i may know what is the problem,
- dating site put a lot of fake women profile to hide the fact that they have 4-8 times more men than women
- 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
i have a free french dating site (soon i'll publish the english version)
i 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)
Reply:I'm guessing that you're a guy. If you were a woman, you'd be getting more than your share of results. Mostly bad.
If you want to get results with internet dating, you go to the chat rooms and start a relationship. Talk about things that interest you. Don't ever start off your chatroom talk with "Hey, are there any single women here."
It takes time. Maybe a year or more to establish some trust. There are also some mixers of chatroom chatters that you can ususally go to where you'll meet some of the people in person.
It's all about establishing a relationship first and lots and lots of time.
For internet dating, how can you ensure the person you are seeing is not married?
Is there a ID or something that you can request the person to show you? read the questions, so many people fall in love with married people. Is there a way we can do a spot check on their marriage status?

if you have a real name andcity they live you can get a background check
Reply:There's no way of really knowing unless you get all there real information and do your own investigation. You could ask them but half the time they wont be honest and who wants to be put in a love triangle
Reply:wether or not you meet someone on the internet is not the point, they can lie to you anywhere you meet them
Reply:You can do the background check. Or wait until you really start dating them for real, outside of the Internet.
Reply:just randomly in the middle of an intellectual conversation insert a "so how's your wife/husband doing".... if they start to answer the question, they're married, if they are like "what?!?!" you're good...
Reply:you wonder how technology has dramatically change all of our lifestyle. more people are finding love via internet. is that a good thing or bad? i guess the positive point is that you will see the person's personality first over their looks, so that's a plus. but i believe there's more negative than positive in online dating. like is the person you're talking to online...are they for real? are they telling you the truth? and majority of the time, it is a long distance relationship (i don't think long distance relationships work, unless you like seeing the person once a week or something).
so...i really think the good ole fashion way is the best way...you know meeting someone through friends or what not and having a conversation is way better than finding a relationship online.
Reply:If you know the guys complete name, city and state he lives in you can check with the court house...I believe marriage license are a matter of public record.
Reply:You do not know if the person on the Internet is married or not. There are people out here in the world that will tell you anything on a computer, but never believe everything that someone types on the computer. It may cost you a few dollars, but you can check marriage license on public records.
Make him/her give you the state and city they were born in.
Reply:maybe do a background check, thats about all i can think of.
this is one of the reasons i refuse to fall for anyone
Reply:NO!!!!!
Reply:No there isnt really you cant really tell if the person is married or have a gf unless they are totally honest with and tell you themselves but the only way to know for sure is if they are going to be honest with you or if you have actually seen the person with a ring on their finger other than that there is no way to know for sure at that time
Reply:No, unfortunately there is no way to be certain that someone is not married.
Reply:Invest $25 and enroll in PublicData.com you do up to 125 background checks a year. Is a great help for single women. Good Luck!
Reply:You don't and therein lies the horns of that dilemna.
You only know what they tell you don't you? I'ts all guesswork and on line dating is the most ridiculous thing your generation has ever devised. Downright dangerous and for people who can't get a date otherwise or too lazy to make the effort. But that is just my opinion.
Reply:Just ask us...we're all honest...I'm married, .............why,...is this gonna be a problem? And no, I cannot spend all my money on YOU! I have a wife and four kids to support!

Are internet Dating Sites a good Practice?
To get the feel or general ground?
Are internet Dating Sites a good Practice?
Its logical is what it is.
If you really shouldnt judge a book by its cover, then internet dating is ideal. then again, if we are a lustful society that is so shallow it bases everything on physical appearance and doesnt care about who is on the inside, I guess it is a bad idea.
ANYWAY.....I think sites like eharmony are good. it has the compatibility quiz. I mean, at the bar, you walk up to the hot girl, knowing nothing about her. On a site like eharmony, you walk up to a sea of people at once, and instantly get rid of anyone that would not be compatible with you. Its so much more efficient, because it judges the book by the inside first. then you only have left the judging of the outside, and, obviously, dating them...to make sure the quiz was right.
Edit: I know several people who have had bad experiences too. with internet dating. with high speed car crashes. Ive known ones that had horrid experiences with STDS. and drugs. then theres the ones that get kidnapped or date raped. etc.
Being alive is dangerous lol. So is dating. of any form. Lifes full of risks, if you want to live it, you must take them.
Reply:no. I know several people that have had a terrible experience from internet dating. Its dangerous.
Reply:I dated ONE guy off the Net. And guess what? He lived in
the same town as me! (It didn't work out... )
I also received an e-mail from a guy in the same state as me, whom I met through one of those sites, who insulted me and targeted me as a lesbian and sent me some hate
e-mail and all because I have an androgynous nickname.
I was also IMed by another man who sent me a naked portrait of a tiny portion of his "male pride". Forget that!!!
I reported his a** in to the site he submitted it through!
I'd love to say it depends on what you put into it, but rather I'll point out that it takes all kinds, there's good and bad in everything and to BE CAREFUL!!!
Reply:it is very good for that but don't make it serious unless you know them personaly...cause if you do that then the people that really know you will like you and you will have to say no. it just doesns't work
Reply:internet dating is a joke it all just depends on the looks thats it on internet dating.

Do internet dating sites really work? Or are they paid actors that show success. Your thoughts please?
I personally found my LOVE on Yahoo Personals, so I would say they work. But I will admit it took me 3 years to find him, but then I was 68 when I found him.
In those 3 years all some of them wanted is a physical relationship, but that was really not me. I chatted with some men who were a long distance from me, and I am still chatting with some of them today.
My advice to you is if you find someone you seem to like chat with the for a month or so and when you meet make it a family style restaurant and come in your own car so that if any thing goes wrong or you know he is not what you want then you can leave and never meet again.
Do internet dating sites really work? Or are they paid actors that show success. Your thoughts please?
I found my LOVE in Yahoo Personals, so I would join them if I were you. You can have a free account and wink at some one you think you want to meet. If he answers back then become a paying member.
Also, True is a good site and women can answer any one with out having to pay.
Good luck. Report It
Reply:you have to look at who your asking this question to...
people that answer on this website are people that spend alot of time online every day...
therefore it is quite likely by looking at the answers, that many people that answered this question met their significant other through online dating websites, but really there arent very many that succeed like these answers make it out, you gotta look at who your asking
Reply:Majority rules in all things these days. Majority says that these sites fail, however my best friend from childhood met someone on a date site just 3 years ago and has been married to the girl he met for 2 of those.
Reply:Absolutely!!! I met a guy 3 years ago on Yahoo personals and on October 20, 07, We're getting married!! Good luck to you.
Reply:they can actually really work, however you need to be very skeptical because a lot of it can be actors.
Reply:I met my fiance' on the Internet. We have been dating since 2004 and are getting married in 2009. It was a long distance relationship, I in Pa he was in Ct. He would fly down on the weekends to be with me. He moved down in 2005. So yes, I do think its a great place to meet people. Just be careful and meet that person in a public place first.
Reply:I know of one that worked pretty well Canadapersonals.com and no there is no need to be embarrassed if you want to meet someone on a site for commitment because some of us don't go to bars, drink and enjoy nature activities which makes it difficult to meet people.
While its not the most romantic way to meet the loves of our lives, its a great way to communicate with someone as long as you like before meeting them, or just meet them and see what the future holds.
Good Luck.
Reply:Well, according to stories we hear, sometimes they really work and the find their "soulmate", but this is extremely risky, I would be worried to meet them later. You never know, be very careful, don't be part of statistics, kiddo!
Reply:Yes some work and some dont.Its up to the person to trust the other person.
Reply:Of course, it works for serious people most of the time.
Finding love online
We have become a society of high-tech people. The internet has changed the way we do business, how we learn and how we find love.
Jacquelyn Hansen, a 39-year-old mother of three, has been dating online, on and off, for a couple years. She does not care who knows.
"People who don't understand that it is part of our new world are like, 'oh, you're doing that?'"
Today millions of people are "doing that," trying to find their match online. In fact, online dating has become so main stream it's even part of a class taught at the University of Minnesota.
"We don't have the same connections that we used to have through church or family or neighborhood," Wayne Caron, U of M Social Science Professor said.
There are plenty of sites on the internet that cater to those looking for love. Each one works a little differently. Most sites charge a fee, make you fill out a profile about yourself and then help you find people with whom you are most likely to be compatible. The rest is up to you.
Dr. Elizabeth and Ryan Gaida met two years ago on www.MillionaireCupid.com.
"I did it for about four or five months before I winked at Ryan," Elizabeth said. "I went on a lot of first dates, but I guess Ryan was my only second date." Two weeks ago, they tied the knot.
Certainly not every match ends up in marriage, but for a budding industry, the number of success stories might surprise you. It's estimated that anywhere from 8 - 10 percent of all marriages are the result of people meeting online.
There is a downside to dating online. It's hard to tell someone's tone in an email. Also, you have to trust that the people you meet are being truthful about themselves.
Not a problem, says Vince Turk. He met his wife Karen on eHarmony.com.
"As somebody who is looking at profiles, you know the people who have invested time in it and put some money into it are pretty serious about wanting to meet somebody."
Karen couldn't have been more honest.
"I lived in a small town. I was approaching 40 and I had six kids," Karen said. "There were just not a lot of options for me."
Vince lived in Minnesota. Karen lived in Iowa. But after a push from their combined eight children, the two decided to move from the cyber world to the real world.
"We have two 15-year-olds, two 13-year-olds, a 12-year-old, 10-year-old, nine-year-old and a five-year-old."
This month, the Turks are celebrating their one-year anniversary.

Reply:My next door neighbours met on a dating site and are very happily married, I know quite a few people that have met on dating sites. To be honest they seem happier than a lot of other couples I know.

Reply:I met the love of my life on a internet dating site, yes they work, so long as you find the ones who are true to themselves and dont make themselves out to be something they are not.

Reply:A good friend of mine went on Eharmony and met the perfect man for her. They are getting married in November. I have also heard other stories similar to that one from others. Hope this helps!

Are internet dating sites legit?
I have joined 5 sites. They all have very very attractive woman on their trial level but as soon as go to paid membership you get ordinary desperate old woman. The descent woman dont respond to you even with a "no thanks" I think they use bait. Is this legal?

2. "Descent women don't respond."
It doesn't sound like the real issue is the FIVE dating sites you've tried...

Do internet dating sites really work?
I tried it once. Basically most people seek for relationship with no string attached. If you are one of them, it will work. If not, better go the conventional way. It is also quite dangerous for inexperience guys and girls to dates online, as there are wolves that pretended that they need alot of TLC as they can't get it back home and alot of pirahnas that pretend to be innocent virgins, but they are really looking for business. So good luck if you want to try it out. Do let me know if it works!
Reply:I'm not sure, they never worked for me.
Reply:not really. you wont see the one youre dating personally.
Reply:Dont do it,not a good thing theres lots of freaks out there so be careful,but i say dont.
Reply:well i havnt tired any internet sites, from what i heard some may lead you to marriage. for me i used myspace i guess it works because you can see their personility by their pick of background, they wite informations about them self, and you can see who they are really friends with. friends knows other friends well.

Contrived methods seem to represent an ambition for yourself, instead of allowing opportunities to present themself.

It is also quite dangerous for inexperience guys and girls to dates online, as there are wolves that pretended that they need alot of TLC as they can't get it back home and alot of pirahnas that pretend to be innocent virgins, but they are really looking for business. So good luck if you want to try it out. Do let me know if it works!
Reply:I'm not sure, they never worked for me.
Reply:not really. you wont see the one youre dating personally.
Reply:Dont do it,not a good thing theres lots of freaks out there so be careful,but i say dont.
Reply:well i havnt tired any internet sites, from what i heard some may lead you to marriage. for me i used myspace i guess it works because you can see their personility by their pick of background, they wite informations about them self, and you can see who they are really friends with. friends knows other friends well.
Reply:They do if you are honest about yourself and who you are looking for. Narrow down your search at the singles cafe

Reply:It's not a good way to meet people, IMO. It's better to meet them during the course of your life and your daily affairs.
Contrived methods seem to represent an ambition for yourself, instead of allowing opportunities to present themself.
Is internet dating right or wrong?
My best friend has done this for years but I disagree with it
Is internet dating right or wrong?
Why do you disagree with it? It is just another medium to meet other people. True, you might have to be a little more careful, but if it works for your best friend..then thats fine.
Reply:its neither right nor wrong --- its what works for the individual --- if you dont want to do it then no one is forcing you if your friend likes it and she is being safe then good luck to her ---- have fun
Reply:There is nothing at all wrong with it...times have changed. I would rather meet someone online then someone completely slobbering drunk in a bar.
As long as someone is safe about it there is nothing wrong. Even in 'real world' dating you need to be safe.
I met my husband online 7 years ago - best man I ever met and we now have 3 kids together.
I think it is a great way to meet people and weed out the bullshit of the bar scene or those terrible blind dates or waiting hopelessly for some random meeting.
Ensure she is safe and support her/him. I love people who are proactive about what they want and they go out and get it..on thier terms.
Reply:I know a few friends whom met after being friends on-line for a yr or so, and even some who live literally 1/2 a world away and profess their love for each other. It was a scary thought yrs ago, but if your "older %26amp; more mature" I see nothing wrong with it. I only see a 'minor complication,'
Young high school age children/teenagers I'd prob. still feel uncomfortable hearing they are traveling to meet someone. They haven't had the life experiences to teach them enough to go out on their own to meet someone from the internet. Everyone you meet is not trustworthy. Young people are more vunerable to being put in bad situations by not thinking.
I'd still suggest having a friend or someone you know with you when the first few meeting take place.

Don't do it, anyone asking for money is just poopy, if she really liked you, she'd try and get the money herself, from someone who isn't you. Stick with what you know.

I met a lady the other day who was American and she came to Britain in Oct 2005 to get married.

He lied about his earnings and she was paying for most things. He was out most nights and weekends so they has no life together. She has now give up and his going home approx £30,000 worse off. So although there are some success stories there are stories like this one. Keep your money until you meet someone here.

Reply:It is an obvious con. I don't believe you fell for it, more than once.
If they genuinly want to start a new life with you, they can sell up all their assets and move to be with you. These aren't poor people in shanty towns, they have broadband internet, digital cameras, and can afford the excessive rates of internet dating sites.
If you can't believe it is a con yourself, buy her tickets, don't give her cash, I bet she comes up with some yarn that she can't receive mail.

Does internet dating make you pathetic or desperate?
When you use professional, online-dating services and are true and genuine in your intentions, I guess you’re not. When you’re a liar, need occasional, without-commitment-encounters, think any person is ok, in sum, you don’t esteem enough yourself, then you might be pathetic.
Does internet dating make you pathetic or desperate?
There are a few people out there that aren't desperate, but honestly, most internet daters are desperate. So even if you yourself are not desperate, you could find someone who is and they suck as dates. I'd just find one in person.

Reply:only if your using a picture of yourself from 20 yrs ago
Reply:I don't think it makes you "pathetic" and or "desperate."
Where I live at the moment, there is so little maturity out of the "women" in central PA....that I've been looking at 'net sites for TX before I move there in the next 3 months or so....it's a good way to get something going before you get somewhere. It's also a good way to look for someone if you're not at all interested in the bar scene of an area (and since I don't really drink, I'm not.)
It's just another form of communication and dating.

Is internet dating the way to go? I don't meet anyone in real life?
Bunch of losers? What's your experience been like?
Is internet dating the way to go? I don't meet anyone in real life?
I would recommend Internet dating. I found my wife via the Internet, and believe me I am not a loser. On the contrary I am now a winner. However you have to very, very careful. Always follow the basic rules:
Do not give out personal details until you are absolutely sure.
Never arrange a meet until YOU are ready.
Always make the early meets in a public place, with lots of people around.
Even taking care I still had some scary encounters; and I'm a man. I'm horrified at some of the stories told by female acquaintances.
Good Luck.
Reply:I've been with my boyfriend 3 years. I met him online college chat room one night. Met him in the mall the next day (b/c it was a public area and i was armed), and 2 days later we were an item.
Best thing thats ever happend to me. I dont recommend it though.
Reply:Way to go. I found someone special using internet dating.
Reply:Dont give up it will get better just a lot of people out there who dont have direction. I think I have finally found someone but it was very hard. Good Luck and God Bless
Reply:I am very active in internet dating. You could easily meet someone like me.
Reply:Sure, if you want to take your chances on meeting a pervert or serial killer!
Reply:Well I havn't had too much luck. All I get are college women who want to have sex all day and night. I just can't handle it anymore. Out of 28 dates I got online, they all were just sex, sex, sex, and sex. How boring.
It's so hard to hook up with a lady who just wants to know me better and spend time with me. I feel so used.
Hope you have better luck than I have had online.
Reply:guess what? i found my boyfriend in an internet dating site. we definitely have the attraction even before we've met. i saw his picture, very different from all the pictures that i saw in that site, sent him an icebreaker and we're on!
i just don't know if it works for the others. you just have to be careful out there. check this site out:

Is internet dating worth a go?
Without a doubt, there are many people out there for lots of reasons don't have the time to look for a partner in what was once considered to be the traditional routes. I did when moving to a different part of the country where I didn't know anyone, and met loads of very attractive/interesting women, one of whom is now my well established partner. Go for it would be my suggestion.

Reply:I'd be careful with that. although I have not tried it. You never really know who you are going to meet when you decide to meet in person. Just make sure if you do it make sure you meet that person in daylight with lots of people around. Because that person could be anybody I mean just for example he could be a circus freak when he pretends he is not.

Reply:I do not know, mate, I tried it but only met weired people, so I always get my drink and go looking for in the club
Reply:it works for some
Reply:no
Reply:Yes definitely if you remember some simple rules.
Put your real pics and a nice profile on...no-one gets anywhere by pretending to be younger, slimmer, cleverer than they really , they just annoy the ppl they meet
Remember some ppl are not who they say they are either.
Don 't move too quickly, take your time and check out who it is you're interested in.
Meet safely, tell someone you trust where and keep it public/ safe.
Don't reveal your ID or anything too early on, you may regret it as there are wierdoes , players etc out there.
Don't get sucked in emotionally as it's 'plasticland', you don't know the REAL person at all. The pics / personality may not be what you imagined. Ppl can look and act entirely different in reality and you may not like them at all!!
With the medium of a pc you cannot get the full essence of the person, you need the real chemistry to gel a relationship. In the event of missing information it is human nature to fill in the blanks. This is normally with the things we want in a partner, and it is your idea of them you may be 'in love' with NOT the REAL person.
Follow this advice and keep your emotions in reserve for the real meeting and you'll not only survive internet dating you may just find your life partner%26gt;
Reply:Sure, just keep your expectations low. It's just another way to meet people that you might not have met otherwise.
Reply:Well, it depends on where you go. I wouldn't bother with a dating site, in particular. I'd go to communities that interest you and meet people there and perhaps eventually starting something from a friendship.
I met my husband on the interent 4 years ago, and we were married February this year. We're very happy, so I don't think it would be very fair for someone to say that you can't really find anyone online.
It's similar to the real world in the respect that you have your good ones and your bad ones, and you have to sort through them.
You have to be careful, because very few people are as good as they seem to be. Like the lady said: keep your expectations low, if you do that, you won't be diappointed.
Reply:I'm one of these people who doesn't trust internet dating cos you will not know the real person until you meet them face to face and when that happens you could be in very big trouble.
Good luck to all those who have had successful relationships fro internet dating but it's just not something i would do.
Reply:Yup if it makes you happy..
Reply:I've never had any luck myself, but you never can tell who you might meet. Just be aware that people are more apt to be dishonest since it's all behind the scenes until you actually meet up with someone. Go from email, to the phone and then to an in-person meeting and just be careful.
Reply:Yes!!! I met my boyfriend on craigslist six months ago.....I've been in love and happy since,,,,,We just moved in together and adopted a kitten...Were moving fast I know....But it all seems so right....But you have to be care full..there are a lot of sick-o's out there...Make sure when u first meet....make it a public place..or hell even bring a friend...Good luck to you...I wish you the happiness I found!
