Hello lonnie,

I think online dating is kind of tricky, because not every one is completely honest. On the other hand if you judge people by first impressions you probably won't get to know them as well as you would do with someone online.Now if by online dating you mean never getting to meet them I don't see a problem every one is entitled to live in their fantasy world. Well I told you what I think, Now what do you think?

[Lonnie]

Good thoughts!

I have always wonder if online dating equals distance relationship?

Shy1 has a good point. Fantasy... :) It's good to imagine.

I think online dating's all about imaginations? Which might lead to what pauker mentioned... wonderful and dangerous.

I see some people going gaga over online dating. And totally obsessed!

Hmm, would it ever work?

Any of your friends encounter such relationship?

I think this is a good thread to share and open thoughts about online dating. :o

I used to think chatting online, and meeting new people was the most fun thing to do on the net, I still think it is, although, i don't quite understand what drives people to even think that they are actually going to hook up. it's pointless. I can see if you maybe want to meet new people, and just have fun getting to know them, and maybe letting them view your webcam. But the possibility of actually getting to meet them person, to person, is very slim. I think it's actually quite the most rediculous way to find love. I mean whats the point. It would be easier, faster, and more fun to just go out to the club, atleast than you would be able to know who you are talking to. and it's such a faster way to go. I'm sure as your reading this, you may disagree with what i am saying, but i'm only telling you how i really feel. I have a question for you lonnie. How many people have you hooked up with on the net, and how many of those relationships with each person turned out to be good. I'll tell you one thing it's dangerous out there. I mean you never know who you are talking to on the net, this person could be a rapist, or child molester, we don't know these things. It has happened before quite a few times. You got these little 13 year old girls talking to men twice their age wanting to meet them just for the . it's really quite disqusting. There are so many other safer ways to find someone who you can love, but these people choose to go to these chatrooms. So online dating, to me is a bunch of bs, and such a waste of time.

I do NOT think on line dating it's a waste of time...I got married to the man of my dreams through a dating site.We are hapily married and have a beautifull 7 months old baby girl...We met through www.date4sure.co.uk, and I am pleased to say that IT'S WORKING!!! :)

Thank you but already found what I needed. ;)

[Datingcritic]

Is it just me, or is www.date4sure.co.uk the most popular place on the planet... I'm telling you I've seen posts all over the place that people have met the people of their dreams... Almost too good to be true...

I think it is much less stressful after I found a website called matchdigits. It gives you a free phone number that forwards to your cell or home, just in case someone gets a little over zealous.

[vanessabg]

I also don't think that online dating is nothing but waisting of time.i like online dating.

[ccouples]

I think the first step in successful online dating is finding the right site for you. It is all very well joining a site with 4 million members but if a vast majority live at the other side of the planet or don't share your interests then you are setting up yourself up for a disappointment. Don't just jump into the first site you find or see in an advert, search for sites that match your interests and sincerity level. This will increase your chances of finding the right person.

online dating is a great thing as long as you are aware of some things. for example, you need to know what kind of partner you are looking for, how to create a cool and interesting profile (extremely important) and you also need some discipline no to spend all your free time on it. ;)

[filipina4friend]

Online dating is good but we need to be aware of scam....

To prevent this, we must know about:

1. her telephone number
2. her pictures (more than 10 pcs.), much better if it's taken by cellular phone
3. her email address and full name.
4. you can see her in webcam

[filipina4friend]

I agree with you Velvetsky

[No Wrong Dates]

Yes, you must have a plan if you are using online sites to review and select potential dates. First, really read profiles and pull out facts from the profiles to chat about with the people you've selected. The fraud factor will reveal itself quickly - speaks a language but doesn't understand a simple phrase; has a doctoral degree but can't tell you the thesis topic; etc. It's easier to weed out the deceptions in online communication than it can be in real life situations. When you found some folks with whom you feel comfortable arrange for a face to face meeting - a public group event is always good - it takes the pressure off both of you and settles nerves and there will be others to talk to if the two of you don't hit it off. Also don't be so quick to dismiss the great people already in your lives - sometimes your best dates come from single people you know but for some reason didn't connect the dots - a friend's brother or sister you've known for years with whom you have a great deal in common and find each other easy to talk to...

I recently got into online dating...and I'm a big fan. Especially, since I live in a small clicky town...in which I don't know anyone.
I think the type of people you meet depends on the site. I personally belong to match.com and eharmony - and I love them both. I have met a handful of people(some from both sites) and everyone has been who they said they were and very nice.
Good luck! <3

I like online dating. Though it is not completely reliable, but there is thrill in online dating, and I like that thrill.

[russelA]

online dating? for me, it's a good thing that we have the kind of dating like that because normal dates can be costly but dating online is like having a conversation in the net while eating alone or having coffee in the bedroom. more financially stable. that's my view about online dating.

[billg]

I was 51, divorced, working offshore in California but living in Upstate NY when I tried dating online. For me it was the only option. It took about a month but I finally got the nerve to contact 2 possbilities where I live. Lady #1 was grat on the phone but wasn't a real match for me in perso. I got very lucky with #2. We hit it off immediately and will be celebrating our 1 year anniversary in a week. We were both divorced, knew what we wanted and didn't want in a relationship before we started. I'm sure we are very lucky to have met when we did but we are genuinely happy. We never would have met with out the 'net.

Online dating is an easy way of meeting new friends. With this, you will be able to meet people around the globe and possibly find your soul-mate in just one click.

[exbrit]

Never thought that it would work until 6 years ago when I met my present Asian wife. I was so impressed that we started our own marriage site and have arranged many happy marriages

[crunchypost]
