Posted: 7/23/2009 10:45:41 AM | How serious do you take online dating, and how long have you been doin it. I have met some very sweet women. Not the one that makes me want to stop dating yet, but very good friends.
Just curious I guess, how long will a person go after a major set back that brought them here to try and find someone.
Lets see where this one leads. | |

take it for what it is, another strong to your dating bow, at some point your gonna take down something nice ! | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 11:03:57 AM | I think you misread. I am pretty sure I have no problem taking this light heartedly, lol. Just a question to the ladies on thier veiws on online dating and how serious they take it.
And maybe to lure out some of the more vicious ones so you can get a shot and take them downwith your bow, lmao. Tag her and bagger her so to speak. {sorry lunch time again need to amuse myself}. Personally anything i have to shoot on here to take down I damn sure did not want lol.
And whats with this damn dancin green bananna anyone know why its green, other than not ripe, | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 12:11:58 PM | So you just want to see where this thread goes? Not interested in a serious response?
Hmmmm. I will play.
I take it just as serious as the person I am talking with does.
I have met great people of both sexes, dated a few months and hid my profile at the time and did not come on line.
That did not pan out, so I am here to make friends and if I meet someone I want to date
that is great, if not? I still am making friends.
Cute dog. | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 1:17:53 PM | Yup, there are some people that are serial daters, users, flakes and whatever else we find undesirable. There are also serious people on here.
I figured out a long time ago that not everyone is on the same plane as myself and quit taking things so seriously. If you are taking things too seriously then you are more likely to be hurt and frustrated on here or any dating site.
I've said this before and will say it again - a lot of people seem to equate online dating with catalog shopping. It's not because these are people not things. You have your needs and desires, so do they. | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 1:41:09 PM | | I have been on and off a couple different dating sites in the last 8 years. I have had a few longish term relationships that didn't last. I am seriouse about dating, but until I meet someone, and click enough with them to make it past a few dates, it isn't concidere serious to me. I don't care if it is in RL or OL, if you are a seriel dater, or a player, you will act and react the same. But if you are actually looking for the last of the line, the when you do find that one, you're done dating around. It is just finding that one that lasts is the hard part. In my opinion wether it is on here or out there, you should be the same person. No fronts. | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 2:31:07 PM | | There are some smart women on this site, no doubt, nothin here is serious, as one poster said, serious happens off the site. | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 4:36:45 PM | It's one outlet to meet people. I'm very shy so it's worked better for me as far as meeting people.
It's also very good for the ego because all the men online think I'm sexy, beautiful, amazing,hot, sizzling...etc etc.....
I never get that from men offline...
oh wait, maybe that suggests the men online are just full of shi tttt | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 8:57:16 PM | | Or to incredibly shy to ask out a very beautiful woamn in fear of rejection, could be the case to, many guys are shy also , until they are behind the screen and keyboard. | |

Posted: 7/23/2009 10:18:38 PM | I don't take it seriously. I don't take much in life seriously.

Posted: 7/24/2009 1:08:30 AM | "On-Line shopping" good comparsion!, and just like internet shopping there is a lot of frauds out there....
When I hear or see someone male or female who approches dating with a shopping list I have to wonder this one question (are you as good as the one you keep looking for.) | |

Posted: 7/24/2009 1:27:23 AM | I take it very serious. I want to find a real soul-mate. But if some dude wants to rate my picture as a 1 I am not going to take that serious. If a woman is not attracted to me who cares? Now - if I emailed every woman on this site and nobody emailed me back. I might take that badly.  Too late for that though. I got lots of msgs. Nothing serious yet but still fun talking. | |

Posted: 7/24/2009 5:03:19 PM | Yes, the "serious" should continue off the site, but it needs to start somewhere. I am one of the exceptions, I think, that IS looking for the real thing. I have recently come to the realization that I am among many people who are not. (men and women) If someone puts they are looking for a "long term" relationship, that is what I am thinking. I know it may not be with me, I know you may need to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince Charming, but ultimately, that is my goal. So, if you are not serious, then please use a different term. I have children so I do not hang out at bars all the time and find it hard to meet people on the streets, so this is why I turned to the internet. I actually met my old boyfriend on another site, and I thought he was great (while it lasted of course) 
So, my point is, yes, I think this can be used for people who are really looking for love. It wont happen on the first date but, it's a way of meeting people.
I may have rambled, sorry, but hope it made sense!! | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 6:58:58 AM | | Personally, I take online dating with a grain of salt. You're not going to have that chemistry with everyone you meet. How long would I personally go after a major setback? As long as I need to, to find what I as an individual person am looking for. Dating is great, but like you OP, I haven't met anyone yet that has made me want to stop dating. If/when that happens, my silly butt will be here for the forum posting only, if even that. | |

Posted: 7/27/2009 2:39:21 PM | | I take it seriously in that I don't want to toy with anyone's emotions, am always upfront and honest and answer all polite emails. I also have had somewhat of a LTR from a match on here so I know the possibilities. | |

Posted: 7/27/2009 3:08:33 PM | One thing that I liked about this website was that people seem serious about meeting.
I've only gone to meet 2 people and it was a very good experience for me. I'm not really rushing to meet a million people but everyone has seemed serious so far. Maybe even too serious at times. | |
