Has being online toughened you up emotionally or made you more sensitive?

....................To woman message.....................
Quite the opposite for me... I've met so many great people here on this site.

I think that it all depends on "expectations".

I didn't join this site in search of "the one"... therefore, I'm not disappointed that I haven't found him (yet).

I hoped to find interesting and like-minded people... and I did.

Sure, there have been lots of people/messages/whatever that were not what I was looking for. But I never took it personally... they are just different people, looking for different things.

I suspect that the key to having a good online experience, is in having realistic expectations. And in not taking it personally if some people don't meet the "standards" that you are looking for

That is the best answer I've heard, I haven’t been on here long, but I do believe it’s too
easy to look at someone's picture and say thanks but no thanks, rather than get to
meet the person and see them for them, what are you scared of, falling in love with
a person that you thought never would be???

There are a lot of people on these dating sites that will be single for a long time due to
their expectations...

I wish all good luck...

to OP I would say it’s toughened me up a little more and opened my eyes up
to what sort of people do exist...

peace out
