I currently have a profile on POF and have had a couple of dates within the past month.  I've met 3 guys.  One of them lives in a different state so I don't know whether or not I'll ever meet him in person.  Dating; in general, can be a chaotic experience so I've put a lot of detail into my profile. 

Some guys on the dating web site are just looking to "hook-up" and I won't play that game.  It's a mistake to be too easy.

 :heart:

Have a great day!

I've never, I met my husband the old fashioned way...drinking in a club until he started looking good. Just kidding, I noticed him before I had a drink and approached him mid first drink been together ever since, 16 years ago.

I don't use it, pretty sure my husband wouldn't approve lol.  I have a few friends that met their so's online though.  Don't think you should be embarrassed about seeing someone you know, they're on there for the same reason after all. :)  Just be extra careful meeting people. Lots of crazies out there these days!

I have dated online, but it never came to anything.  Men lie all the time.  I have had conversations via chat and you soon find out that they are con artists or scammers.  So you really can't believe anything online is true.  Playing games is still live and being used.  SMDH

Every boyfriend, since the internet was introduced in 1995, I have had and only one made it and I have been with him since 2000. Took me 5 years to snag one, the right one? Maybe! lol ... but he is mine none the less. One boyfriend died I recently found out and I was so sad to learn this thru googling his name and finding his obituary. But life happens and everything is meant to happen for a reason.

I've never tried online dating but I don't think it's a real good idea.  After all anyone can "fake" their look, their intentions, their family or even their working.  Too scary for me!!!

I met my girlfriend on Facebook. We have been together now for 2 years. It is tuff though because we live 4 hours apart but we make it work the best we can.

I'm tempted to try it, since I'm pretty shy and haven't had the best of luck meeting people in "real life".

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

Online dating isn't my style.  My mom and stepfather met through online  dating.  They have been happily married for ten years.

I think it's worth a try if you're interested in it.  Just be careful, especially when you arrange to meet in person.

I put a lot of time and effort into creating a profile on POF (Plentyoffish.com).  My experience with dating sites is that a lot of people use them to "hook up".  I'm not interested in casual sex with anyone and I'm especially not interested in casual sex with a stranger that I meet online.

I recently hid my profile because I no longer want to deal with mind games, dating chaos or anything like that.

 :heart:

Have a great day!
