Internet Dating

The first time I tried blind dating, it was in March 1539 when artist Hans Holbein the Younger was dispatched to paint an inaccurate portrait of Anne of Cleeves. After that knave fooled me, my servant Thomas Cromwell arranged the marriage (so we can have an alliance with those Germans). It didn't work. When I met the woman, I went in disguise and sneak inside her room for a kiss. She cursed me out in German. Let say that Thomas Cromwell lost his head over the match. On Match.com, I tried to find a buxom wench to be lucky wife number 7 but came up short. Most of the women on Match.com are not know for their chaste behavior. Every time they hear my name, they run away(I am not going to chop everyone's heads off). Rateitall is a bust too. Most of the site is full of middle-age men and the fair maidens have already been taken (tis a pity). Update: I have to change it after reading that James "Krustytheclown" Holmes was a fan of internet dating. Never know the real... Read more

Its a great place to meet people that lie about everything, from what I've heard. I read somewhere that the average person claims two extra inches of height and $20k a year of income that they don't make, plus its a also a great way for women to meet fake special forces operators...

There is truth in the adage, "When you meet in person, you're starting from scratch." Long email exchanges are a waste of time. You will learn more in a half-hour of face-to-face. Expect disappointment, but keep an open mind. I met my wife through Yahoo fifteen years ago.

I tell my kids that before on-line dating became the norm, everyone approached dating and relationships with candour, sincerity and complete honesty. The little suckers bought every word of it.

Hi. I'm Nancy. I'm a normal, happy and healthy lady! I like food! I like bon fires. long walks on the beach. cuddling. love to laugh! lol. I have five kids who are my world! Love music, but not rap. I'm looking for an honest man! And I don't need any drama in my life. don't contact me if you like drama!

I am going to divulge on my own personal experience here. I had a friend that thought I needed to get a life and start dating, this was a couple years ago. I don't go out to bars or clubs and crap like that, so she thought it would be a good idea to purchase me a 6 month membership to E-Harmony for an early Christmas present. Wow the interesting people I met there..... First try was a guy who spent the entire time talking about his WoW game and even showed me his WoW app for his iPhone, towards the end of the coffee date he yawned, stretched and then said "Rawr." No joke. Lucky I had a friend waiting so if they got a text, they would send me one back. I faked like it was my parents telling me I needed to pick up my girls. This dipshit thought that the date went great and even tried to kiss me before I left. I shook his hand and sent him and email and informed him that there wouldn't be a second date. Second try, I was being used as a front for his family to hide the fact that ... Read more

I am going to give this a two start one (love this overall topic several things to think about Katrinabena) because I have heard horror stories and some successes. I would say it is pretty much in line with conventional dating. I would be inclined to agree it does make it easier to post lies about yourself and it is definitely dangerous to fly out and meet someone in another state without knowing much about them. I have heard of that happening to.

I know two people who met their future spouse on the internet dating services. They were in their sixties, so it was not too dangerous for them and worked out rather well.

Or as an acquaintance of mine calls it: "Dial a Ho."

I know some worthless husks of shin and shit that damn near reproduced because of this shit. Very close call indeed. Put a stop to this TODAY.

Internet dating has the potential to be okay for some, but there is a danger element because so many create "characters." I don't know a lot about internet dating but few of my friends (many of whom would make great mates for someone) have had any luck with this. Do people actually post ads and confess what they sometimes weigh or that they are unhappy with their life or un/underemployed? To me this is the equivalent of a blind date. Be careful!
