I did the whole yahoo personal's thing, it was awful because I was actually looking for a relationship. In March I decided to try Match.com, within a week I found someone. We talked online for a month and pretty soon we decided to meet. He drove 8 hours to meet me, and he's driven that 8 hours every weekend since. He is my one true love, and I never would have met him if it wasn't for online dating. I realize it seems fast, but when you know, you know. Just be careful, take things slow, and be open. A lot of people I know think it's weird that we met online, but really, we live in 2006 and the internet helps us find everything, why not love?

I helped two friends with setting up acounts with online dating. From both experiences I can tell you it should only be left as a last resort. You'll get a lot of interested people and you'll feel so confident, but 90% of them only play the field online meaning their just covering there bases and telling as many men or women as they are interested. That's pretty much the concensus of my friends. One (I love him like a brother, but needs to figure out more about himself before he dates again) had very little success, however he did come on too strong and is a little wierd. The other (who was just a little too shy to ask girls out in person) met a girl fell in love, and everything seemed great they'd talk for hours online and on the phone, but when it came time to meet she said she needed to confess something. I don't know what she said but I've never seen him so depressed. The problem is there's no way to know who you can trust. Also you know that most people are doing this as a last resort. It's not bad but you have a better shot just flirting with random people. Good Luck in your decision. I hope I was of some help.

Your outcomes would determination. lots of those loose relationship information superhighway sites are often the position the creeps and scumbags dangle out, searching for a one evening stand or an damage out from marital existence. in truth, one in each of my acquaintances met a guy on there, and issues appeared to be going nicely till a month after at the same time as she stumbled on he replaced into married and had 2 youthful ones. I have used lots of Fish numerous cases till now and it has a touch unsavory attractiveness....lots of the ladies people I have encountered are trashy and overly flirtatious, so i anticipate diverse the adult males on there are only an similar. i'm wondering your probabilities of looking a guy who's real and straightforward by skill of on line relationship is few and far between. so a strategies as determining no matter if or not they're a deranged psychopath, nicely you'll only could use your wonderful judgement on that....keep your dates public and stay away from going back to each and each others places till you could make a straightforward assumption on who you're relationship. best of success.

Three women I know did it ..................they are 0 for 3. It didn't work for any of them. They were very happy for awhile and then once the relationship got more serious it all seemed to fall apart.
