| How many dates have you had of the Internet and still remain single?
Posted: 4/15/2007 10:42:57 AM | | After being out of the dating scene for a while I used the internet as a tool for dating, I date maybe every 3-4 months, but I have been happy with the results. Now as far a long term relationship to come from my meeting my internet dates, NO. I have had to short term relationship and made some good friends. | |

Posted: 4/17/2007 4:08:51 PM | I took a big risk and met my first person off this site a few months back. Not at all typical behaviour for me. All I can honestly say is that I am EXTREMELY fortunate for my experience was amazing. I actually found someone for the first time in my life that I am as attracted to on the inside as I am on the outside. What are the odds that the FIRST one I meet would turn out like this....no longer single  | |

Posted: 4/17/2007 5:32:27 PM | Well, I for one, am not looking to get married again. I was just looking for a decent, fun guy to date and have good times with. Mabe more in the scheme of things to come....
In my almost 4 years on internet dating sites, all the men I actually met in person turned out to be EXACTLY as they described themselves. No real bad experiences.
One turned into a 2 plus year wonderful relationship that ended due to very personal reasons.
Right now I'm dating a great guy and just having fun. Thats what its all about after all.
People should not be here looking to get married. If it happens for you, all the better, if thats what you want.

Posted: 4/18/2007 4:10:24 AM | Ive met 4 in the last three years.
None of them really looked like their picture,
one of them was a compulsive womanizer/dater
and 2 of them lied on the profile about not having kids
when infact they did,
But ive made many good friends here that i still talk to, Priceless!!!

If you are too particular, of course its going to be very difficult. I'm not saying dive in with the first person you meet, but don't put so much emphasis on them being exactly what you want !
Just try to look for someone you can enjoy yourself with !

Although it seemed like more only 15- 20. Only one from POF, and that was almost a year ago. Most were one hit wonders , or two and out. Hmmm geez the mor eI think about it , maybe it's been more than 20, but less than 30, most I haven't kept in touch with after that initial meeting. | |

Posted: 8/20/2008 9:01:57 AM | Been here 6 mnths, been on 5 dates and now have a boyfriend that i met from here !!!! ( so it took 5 months of bad dates to find a good one !!!)
Was not sure that would ever happen, in fact i was ready to just shut off my profile, but i decided to give him a chance becouse we had so much in common.
So...... keep your head up and dont discard people becouse you dont think they are your "type", you never know !!!  | |

Posted: 8/20/2008 3:09:11 PM | Hah!
I had tons of dates (sometimes 2-3 per day) and no bf so far.. You see when I joined....
Oh, and one "enlightened" being told me he didn't approach me, because I seem "full of myself"..really? Because you're 20 minutes late and I'm feeling uneasy being hit on by 20 other guys? No f* kidding I'm guarded!
Anyway...
Had plenty "net" dates, hooked one guy up with my gf (both are extatic" and still..waiting? | |

Posted: 10/28/2008 11:56:13 PM | I have been on about 6 dates thus far and... well... not so good..
Now I feel somewhat more educated I usually start by emailing acouple of times.. moving onto msn or something like that and trying to get to know them (as best as you can from typing)...
Onto the phone next (I worked in radio for 14 years and you can tell SOOO much from the tone of a person's voice!).
We then (after chating a number of times) decide to meet and have a coffee or early dinner.. something quite casual (I guess hang out abit is the right term here) and then off home (alone - I don't want to give the impression that i'm easy! lol) - although there was one date that lasted 22 hours! (yes... we spent 22hrs chatting and walking around and it was great - although, her boyfriend wasn't so pleased)
I think I'm a fairly decent, nice guy... but i still have no hand to hold (how soppy is that?)

Posted: 11/16/2008 9:34:26 PM | | Geez...maybe 7 that I've met (3 second dates out of those, nothing more), a handful that I've just spoken to (within the past year or so). I think the success ratio is similar to meeting someone in "real" life. I don't think online dating should be knocked. I just try to look at it as meeting people, if something clicks, it'll stick. | |

Posted: 11/17/2008 9:08:46 AM | | I'm no longer single but can share my experience. I met about 50 women over an 18 month period from a variety of sites, but most were from match. All but 1 were really nice, looked like their pictures, and compared favorably to their profiles and emails. (I screened very carefully before meeting anyone.) Not many made it to a second date, but several turned into short-term relationships but didn't have the right mix to continue. Some are still close friends. And the final one will hopefully last forever! So far, so good! | |
