Online Dating

interesting question...how would this effect traditional methods?, whats your view/concept?
 
the elemets taken away are the fact that online dating removes most of the senses we normally use when we encounter the opposite sex, whom we find attractive...
you have only a marginal visual experience and the rest is cerebral until at which point you both decide to meet in person.
this can be an uncomfortable situation, and at least 50% of the time, it turns out to be a no go...but the positive side is that you can weed thru prospects very rapidly and at little financial obligation....

It´s sort of tough on people who look bad on paper/picture but are just damn smooth. we all have a friend who dates above his league because hes got the body language and the chat. He´d suffer in this environment.

and the flip side, you can be smooth on the screen and be a nightmare in person...
 
In a study reported on CBS News, 15% of Americans with internet access have visited an internet dating site. 27% of them were 18-29 years old. Obviously online dating is a popular pastime.

The same study showed that 33% of unmarried internet users thought that dating online was a safe way to meet people although 34% acknowledged knowing someone who had a bad experience.

The truth is many individuals find the anonymity of online dating encourages a certain amount of exaggeration or lying. While some claim that we always hide things at the beginning of a relationship, trying to put our best foot forward, the internet makes it easier to hide such things as facial expressions, income, marital status and even criminal records.
 
Guess I'm a lucky one! I met the man of my dreams over the internet and wolud not have wanted to met him any other way. WE spoke on the phone and over web came for 2 months before we met face to face.

Honestly meeting people over the internet is a good way to do things,there is always an ON and OFF button if you don't like them!
 
I dont know if id want to chat online before meeting. id just pick a girl by her profile site and ask to meet up and if she agrees, just meet up all fresh.
 
Well he was miles away so I had to wait for him to get back to the east coast. If that was not the case I would have met him sooner!!

See sometimes it works out for the best. You may not find the women/man of your dreams but you can always find a few friends.
 
Sometimes I'm smooth as silk, other times I'm a bumbling idiot.
 
Online, with women, I immediately display my "second impression" characteristics that you would normally see of me in person. In person, I am usually kinda shy and quiet at first if the other person is too because I very much base what I do and say based on the other people, I derive almost all what I say from them sometimes because I find it makes for a better mood in the end. It's just getting that kick start to get me talking sly and witty that's the problem sometimes...if they can wait that extra second to see me break out, it almost always equates to something good, whether that be relationship/new friendship. I've developed relatively good people skills because of my dad. If you put him in I in seperate boxes on a tv screen and watch us talk in our own little groups, we are very much a like in that we gather a lot of peoples attention and interest and seem to make people laugh.

That sounds very familiar

Honestly I realize that this is the future(here now) of dating but wish it wouldn't go that way. I just want to meet that special on in one of those crazy romantic ways the internet doesn't offer that. I have always felt that I would see it in her eyes and know and on a flat screen it just isn't there. Am I the only one who still thinks things like :being in a small gift shop, seeing something on the self interesting and reaching for it at the same time that the one special person is and knowing right then is the way to go?

which means 73% were over 29
assuming only adults were polled

30ish+ "has been" women are a dime a dozen online

you?
 
If in the same city i would consider it.. not to relocate..

I think its the next thing in dating... for me i don't see anything wrong with it.. i don't have any trouble meeting ppl, but the thing is.. ppl tend to meet me and sorry for the term but only want to do one thing.. in clubs and bars. and even the gym. and i don't hang around churches and libraries..

I have had a few relationships that started off the net.. two that lasted over 2 years..

i got to know them before we meet a little bit.. in some ways it was nice.. you do have to be selective..
 
I actually met my future wife via online. We are getting married in March. I never would have been able to meet her otherwise. it didn't matter how we corresponded online/phone. When we met we both just completely fell in love with one another. Whether it was online or a more traditional place, she was and will be the only one for me. Therefore i am very thankful for whatever spectrum that brought us together, bottom line is we are together and that is what i am truly thankful for
 
In a lot of ways I think it's easier to get to know people when you're not constantly face to face. I think people tend to be more open in writing or on the phone than in person. It can be such a mellow casual way to meet a person without the BS drama crap of first dates etc. I suppose online or not game playing happens. I just hate all that nonsense.

Could you imagine knowing your parents met online? nothing wrong with it, just funny.

My parents met on match.com- how about yours?

My mom saw my dads profile on profile.com and dropped him a line!
