Online Dating, whats your experience?

I tried it 5 years ago for about 6 months and went on a few dates. Some are just crazy, but I met an amazing woman during what I said would be my last try at the online dating thing. Married her I met in March of this year.

I'd guess there are more crazies than amazing. Like a 100:1 (with both sexes)
 
:rofl

gotta love your attitude Jim, really :thumbup

I was on match.com years ago, didn't really have any success at all :x

I remember one date I went on, had a great time with this guy, dinner and drinks. He drops me off at home and says "I don't want to see you again, I want to be in love and I am in lust with you"

:wtf

dude just wanted to get laid.
 
If the women are expecting you to be a liar, and you feel like you're starting from scum and working your way up, then I'd be passing on those women... bitter leaves such a nasty aftertaste... :thumbdown

Can you blame them for being jaded? Really? I've seen female friend's use it and they get bombarded daily with the "DTF?" emails. It's crazy.

Actually, my approach was to weed out the unacceptable e-mails, and if a guy is worth replying to, he's worth being treated for HIS behavior, not the shitty behavior of the culls you don't bother to do anything more with than delete and block from further contact. If you're jaded and bitter, step away for awhile, or fix your profile so you get less contact from icky people.
 
um, well, if he was in lust wouldn't he have tried :dunno


Jason, what's DTF :confused

Oh come on :laughing You gotta know what DTF stands for? Playing coy with us, I know you have a pair of hot knee high leather boots you rock :laughing

Dennys Tonight Flavor!

:wtf

that's equivalent to "we don't want to hire you because you're overqualified." :laughing
 
I met my girlfriend through BARF. That is the limit of my experince with online dating.
 
Tried it a few times and met lots of creepy guys.
 
down to F***. then, GTL........:rofl:rofl

GTL??

Oh come on :laughing You gotta know what DTF stands for? Playing coy with us, I know you have a pair of hot knee high leather boots you rock :laughing

Why yes, I do have a pair of hot knee high boots that I am in fact wearing now. But I had no idea what DTF meant :x

that's equivalent to "we don't want to hire you because you're overqualified." :laughing

innit just. Bloody stupid sod
 
I went on a date with a guy from match.com on Sunday. He's interesting, intelligent and has been a total gentleman in all interactions. We're going riding over the weekend. :banana

I've met a few guys for coffee off OKCupid and rode up to Tomales with one guy, which was fun. I had a fun fling for a few months with a cute German research scientist that was here for a fellowship. So far, so good. :)
 
Meh. Tried it. Met plenty, none really lasted, but then, most of the ones I meet offline don't last long either. Maybe I'm just jaded. Seems a hell of a lot harder to get a date online than in person. Lot easier to hold a conversation. And about 99.9% of the chicks on there are stuck up hypocrites. Especially hate the ones who have something like "OMG guys are such assholes if you're gonna take the time to favorite me/message me say more than just 'hi'!!!" on their profiles...then they message YOU and just go "Hi :)". :facepalm

Like I said, I'll stick with offline for the most part...
