Was it worth the build up

I've been wondering about other peoples experiences when meeting someone. On average with the people you have met from here or other dating sites how many were worth the build up to the meeting. You know the chatting and emails and maybe talking on the phone. whats the average that when you finally met you met exactly who you thought you were going to be they were the same online as in person or very close.

Me I would say so far on average anyone I have met on here I've had atleast 80% success rate of meeting the same person offline as they were online.

My last long relationship came out of a telephone personal thing. The computer dating hasn't worked out as well though. Even though the women were attractive there just wasn't any chemistry between us. on the other hand they were all cool women and I enjoyed going out so it was well worth it and it has expanded my social base a bit so I would call it a success.

I've had a high success rate :) I find everyone that I meet to be honest and straightforward about who they are and what they're looking for.

Ppl are fun to meet and every experience has been different and interesting

Life goes on and sometimes it's just a revolving door of meeting ppl
Just as long as the expectation aren't too high you can't be disappointed

I think if I was looking for forever I would worry more and the expectation would be higher and mayber a higher rate of diappointment but I've had fun chatting and meeting some.

But I must admit the chatting is a whole lot more fun then meeting these ppl

before i met her we talked on the fone maybe once or twice. and then the day before i met her we talked and the anticipation was nuts! soo nervous and it turned out great! but i went in knowing i would have a great super duper friend no matter what! made it easier. and the fact that her whole clan was there didn't help!

This website thing is weird.... i have met some nice gurls. friends.. as for a partner no i havent found one yet

However, my problem is when i have a girl messages me or i message one ... i ask her for her msn so we could talk more.. Now.. how many girls have i added to my msn and they turned out to be dull adds that r taking spaces on my msn..
