It is possible, though, to exchange information with someone online, and agree to meet somewhere in person.
Meeting online is physically impossible. | |

Posted: 5/19/2008 3:10:55 PM | | Not for me.Maybe it works for others but i doubt it works for the mainstream.I find you can get more across in 5mins of chat in person,,than 6 months of messages.Good luck to all and each to their own. | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 8:29:59 AM | Sure you can meet someone online. It is like meeting someone anywhere else. It is about being at the right place at the right time. Its just another avenue. You dont know if you dont try right?
If things are meant to be whether you meet someone online, at the grocery store, or in church, etc. When the time is right it will happen.
Have fun and Good luck. | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 10:49:52 AM | hi i do believe you can chat with someone online arrange to meet and a spark is there :) Its easier to for some people to meet and if you lack self confidence it helps to chat a lil online and get to know each other, i will say untill you meet someone spend time with them you dont know them or how you really feel about them .  | |

Posted: 5/20/2008 7:10:52 PM | | Yes you can meet some great people on-line, you just have to learn quickly how to weed out the wacko's! Be very clear about what you are/aren't looking for and then spend some time reading profiles. Make sure your profile is light and honest and reveals clues as to what you are like. I always say BE REAL! And don't be afraid to make the first contact! Once you start talking it is pretty important to meet quickly so you don't start to envision this person and potentially get disappointed when you meet physically. Always tell the truth and show current pictures.........what do you gain by deception other than a very shocked look when you meet? | |

Posted: 5/21/2008 4:21:43 PM | | I met my fiance on Match in December and I'm pregnant, planning a wedding, and overjoyed. I met fifteen guys before meeting him and most were losers, just wanted sex, and so on. So yes, you can meet someone wonderful online but be prepared to meet a lot of day old fish that you want to throw back before you meet your "one". | |

Posted: 5/22/2008 2:25:30 PM | | Yes you can indeed meet someone on line, but they are a cross section of society. Many will have so much baggage its awful, for instance trouble with an ex-spouse, medical problems and no insurance, a past of numerous unsuccessful marriages, etc and some who are "separated" and believe that gives them license to date others when in actuality they still have a spouse. On the other hand there are some nice people on the net. You just have to go through the weeding process. One thing I have often wondered about the women on here though and that is if you look so damned good in real life as you do in your photo, then why the hell are you even on here? Guys should be wearing your phone line out and vice versa depending on the sex of the persons. | |

Posted: 5/22/2008 5:23:56 PM | | Kinda hard to meet someone online when you can't get responses to emails. I decided that if I want to meet people that are into physically active stuff then I have to get out there and do it myself, join groups and maybe find somone I hit it off with. If not at least I stay busy, have fun, and get in shape. | |

Posted: 5/23/2008 6:56:51 AM | At first I would say yes but anymore I am saying no because it seems that anyone you meet online does not want a serious relationship they want to go out on dates and have a nice time
So you can meet someone online and go out and have a nice time on a dat but when it comes to a lasting relationship I seriously doubt it. | |

Posted: 5/26/2008 4:53:22 PM | You most certainly can if you go out at it the right way and are honest from the off......thats crucial i,m afraid....So many on here are trying to be someone there not ....just say it the way it is and you will find you will atract the right types ...lol...I hve only been here 2 weeks and have met lovely girls and possibly one very special one ......so if i suddenly dissapear from here ..well you know i ain,t gone mising in action for sure anyway. Really looks are not the most important thing on here ...off course there has to be pysical attraction but if you can make someone laugh and they u well thats half the battle is,nt it:)
I would say its not a healthy thing to spent too much time on here ...you will start to nit pick and search too hard ..sure you will never find what you want if you look too hard......Be yourself people and the worm will turn.....:) | |

Posted: 5/28/2008 11:02:38 PM | I really hope you can because i don't know what else to do. I haven't dated since i met my wife and that was oh... 40 years ago and i was 14. She died last year and when you see an attractive woman in the street you can't very well just stroll up and say hi. She will think you are a creep. Is it the same when you message someone online? Will they think I am a creep? | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 12:02:18 AM | Like the original OP, it's mainly Viva Las Vegas so  while you can
If looking for more then Nobody knows as POF's demography is so worldly diverse, got everything you can imagine on here, that unfortunately unless you put alot of effort into your profile and chat-to-know to explain and persuade that you are a good person to reach those who want the same but maybe badly burnt or also have to effort to get away from the internet stigmatism of creeps, perverts, weirdo's, Fbuddies, etc then just gotta roll with the blow then.
I know, it's tedious and most move on, your choice. | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 1:01:53 AM | | My sister met her husband online and they have a 5 month old baby now. My brother also met his 'partner' online they've been together for 6 years now. I met my ex online we were together for a year before parting ways so yeah...things to happen but I find there are quite a few people here that are just here to browse but not really interested in actaully going out and meeting which is fine.... | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 6:06:54 AM | | To be honest, I'm not sure. I am a member at a handful of sites and haven't had any success at any of them. I'm honest to a fault and maybe that's why. I'm not ready to give up yet though. I've never quit anything in my life and not about to start now. I know she's out there, so now I just have to find her!! | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 6:53:50 PM | | It's possible, done it. Not always with good results, but at least online you both have the same idea in mind.... for the most part depending on what you hope to gain from it. | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 8:38:44 PM | what is it with these guys who are in such a rush to meet without talking online first?
I don't want to waste my time with some jerk so I want to know them online first before I go to the trouble of meeting them. What do you think guys? Ladies? | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 8:53:39 PM | | Yes, I do believe you can meet someone online. I met someone through a different website and after talking for a few weeks me met up. If both parties are serious about what they want and don't build up unrealistic expectations, then I can't see why you wouldn't want to meet up. | |

how do you view the tetimonials that others write about you? The ones written about me fit my profile pretty well. Basically, it shows that one is capable of making some friends and can get along with others. Plus, it gives a glimpse into the types of people they get along with. | |

Posted: 5/29/2008 9:19:01 PM | Yes you can meet someone on line. It is just another tool to meet people with. On line, you know a little more about them (if they are honest) than seeing someone in a bar or store.
I've met several here, but so far it hasn't worked out for different reasons. | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 6:23:07 AM | | I've met 2 men on this site and both have rushed into it. The man I dated was very controlling and I broke it off after a year. The man I met a few days ago has already given me his phone number. Unwisely, I called him only to find out he is a liar, drug addict, and an alcoholic. I'm beginning to think this online dating is not for me. | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 1:58:15 PM | | I'm like you, I'm new to trying this and I'm not sure what to think. I heard about this through a friend who did go on a couple dates but they didn't work out. Just another thing to try. I'm going in as positive, you never know. | |
