I'm a shy guy and I've thought about trying online dating but never done it because people seem to think its for desperate losers or nerds. What do you think? What would you think of a couple if they told you they met online? Is that weird? How do you feel about online dating?
Are people on online dating sites normal? Or do they all suffer from some common neurosis?

Well people that join the online dating site are normal in most cases!! I have read of people meeting online and then getting married. So based on that i think you should go ahead and try it.

Just tell people you were introduced by a mutual friend.
To be honest -- most people lie on the sites, but not all. And most of the women want the same kind of guy they just divorced -- tall, dark, and handsome (and rich) -- even though they just got rid of one just like that, and all of the women want the same guy.
There are many normal people out there, but the sites control the email, and can cut off contact if they see it is serious. they don't want people to hook up. They lose business if you stop paying. Swap real email addresses early!

no, its not just for desperate losers, thank you though.
some people work too much to even have time to get out there and look.
i have met someone online before and it was fun, so you can have a relationship online, and neither one of us were neurotic.
online dating is kind of like person to person, there are no gaurantees. and yes there are "normal" people that online date.

It's ok, dude..... really.
It's YOUR decision. The fact remains that the internet is becoming as much of a reality as phones were WAAAAY back in the day.
You really should ask yourself, "Is using another tool at my disposal enough to say that it is weird or desparate?"
I've met ALL my girlfriends online. There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with it unless you are afraid of what others will say about you. You just have to be cautious and use common sense.
Hope that helps!!!!

As with the general population, people on line cover the whole spectrum of people. There are many normal people on line just like you, just looking for love. I met my fiance on a on line dating service. It takes work and some sorting out of the people who show interest in you but it is worth the time.

Ok, classifieds, online dating all that stuff just makes other people think: wow, those 2 must have been Desperate. But...so many people do it nowadays, that I don't think it'll matter. And yes, there are normal people on those sites.

They had not yet invented the internet when I was dating, but I did meet my husband from a computer-matching company, and we've been married 35 years. It's a great alternative to the bar scene. Go for it.

I don't think many of the people are losers. It can be very hard to meet people today, especially if you are not in your early twenties anymore. Anyway, you are just going out on a date
and you will soon find out. They are not performing brain surgery on you.
