I've done it before and while I hear of people making relationshisp through these sites, I can't seem to find a decent person online. They sound great and have decent photos, but there's just something very wrong with them. The last two guys I met online were enough to make me quit my online dating.
Guy #1 was impotent. Now why in the hell would you not disclose something like that uupfront? We went out a few times and the first time we slept together was the last. It was so sad and awful. He basically couldn't get it up no matter what I tried. As shallow as this sounds, this aspect of a relationship is very important to me and to a lot of other people. So admit it before you date someone! It's like dating a Catholic then telling them you're a staunch Jew. I mean come on!
Guy #2 wasn't so bad, but he had a violent streak that came out one day. We dated for more than a month and just when I thought things were going well, we got into a fight one day and he punched a hole in my wall. Then he drove off like a maniac, almost running someone over. If you have anger management issues, you need to say so.
Those two cases were enough to make me stay away from online dating. I'm more open to being fixed up now. It's just easier and you have a fram of reference for these people. It's nice to know a friend has vouched for this person.

hilarious. i've been on match too and i've met a lot of sad people too. the last guy i met had turets. but what can you do if it's too much of a drag to meet people in bars every week? -

Sad to admit it, but it's true. Before I met my current boyfriend on eharmony.com, I had been on about nine different dating sites, including match.com. Most of my horror stories came from match, but eharmony helped me find my soulmate. He lives an hour and a half away, but soon, he will move to my city. I am an online dating advocate. The guys you meet online are out in the real world too, so why not broaden your horizons? -

Interesting perspective, Starlight. We seem to separate the real world with the online world, don't we? Maybe I'll give Match another try...but seriously, one more awful date and then I'm through with online dating! -

I really cant imagine it, i mean meeting someone you met on some crappy dating site.Dont take me wrong, i also have put up my name and insights about myself on a site, but now i am tired of guys sending me their mail-id and stuff, in the end it seemed like shit. And my worst experience i met some guy who looked like my ex-boyfriend. I have just met the guys on the net, didnt meet in person, and dont want to also. Just try to be safe, i mean you dont know what the guy you are going to meet is like. -
starlightstarbright said on Jun 22, 2006....
I know. I feel your pain. For the longest time, I tried to meet someone online, and I just wasn't getting anywhere. Here are some sites to watch out for: date.com americansingles.com loveaccess.com I had some success with match, but I met a lot of weirdos on match.com, too. There are a few free dating sites out there, including http://www.matchdoctor.com and http://www.plentyoffish.com. I know a lot of people use eharmony as a last resort, because it's so expensive, but in my opinion, it was worth it. It really worked out for me. -

You want a "normal" man? You little fool. There is no such man. There is no "normal." Are you normal? A rat in a cage of her own design. -

Guyz might not be perfect in all sense but frankly speaking 2 find a real decent great guy is not easy . . It takes more than luck to find 1 . . same goes with guys hus in search for their dream gal or miss perfect? haha -

Yeah, I agree it's hard to find normal guys or gals. This isn't just an online thing(even though online weirdos are slightly more likely because anti-socials go online a lot). In the real world, people have some serious problems that most people do not want to deal with. It's all about finding your match, though. Good luck. I personally haven't tried online dating, seeing people and going from there saves a lot of time I think. -

You are going to find him when you aren't looking. I feel bad for your two experiences but the first one is kinda funny. Of course how can you put that on your profile..LOL I mean what would he say....Good looking man, kind, professional, can't get it up...LMAO Sorry. I feel sorry for the guy but I totally understand what you are saying. My hubby is a 2-3 time a dayer so...Sex is very important YES. I know you will find someone. Actually, they will probably find you:) That is what happened with my MR Right!!!! -
starlightstarbright said on Jul 25, 2006....
Oh, I just looked at my first post on this thread, and circumstances have changed a little bit. I'm still with my boyfriend, but instead of him moving to my city, I am moving to his town very soon. It won't be much of an adjustment, considering that I practically live there on the weekends as it is right now. But keep up hope. You will find the right guy. I got so frustrated before meeting my boyfriend, but when I finally did, everything fell into place. -

This reminds me of Saturday Night Live's Lower Expectations. I can understand why you wouldn't want to list your negative qualities but then again some people don't see their own negative qualities. Let's imagine an honest advert. Single male. 31. 5'11". Brown hair. Slim to athletic build. Enjoys sports. University degree. $70-$90K/yr income brackett with chance for promotion. Likes reading, movies, travel, music. Home owner. Non-smoker, social drinker. No criminal record. Loves children and hopes to have some, someday. Tendencies toward self mutilation during times of extreme stress. Has sexual fetishes for medium sized rodents. Looking for an attractive, stable woman, with good career options and possibly similar interests - except for the rodent part. That's just weird. -

Thousands of people go for online dating and get good friends, and live happily. How is it that you alone miss the right person? Dont loose heart, try and go on trying. -
anonymous said on Sep 19, 2006....
What is "decent"?
Decent does not mean "good".
When you think about it, the guy with the rodent issue is pretty decent since he doesn't expect you to join in. Mutilates himself. Hey. Whose business is it but his? That guy's a catch!
I'm married 9+ years. Lots of prospects if my wife were to diie tomorrow (God forbid.), but am I decent? I have a hot temper, I'm opinionated, egotistical, critical, and sarcastic.I have a big nose. I can't seem to shut up when we're watching a video. I harp on nutritional issues and make only average pay. There's worse, but who knows what gets tracked by IP Address these days?
My point is, married guys have their warts too. They've simply found soomeone who finds those problems tolerable in exchange for the good stuff they also have.
Here's a tip. If you CAN live without good looks, get as littlle of that ingredient as you can stand. The guy doesn't have to be Steve Buschemi, but if you can accept that level of plug ugly, you can have your pick of anything else. Wealth, intellect, generous, charitable, attentive, thoughftul, passionate, and a good dancer.
My wife has all those things except wealth.
She's also a good 100 pounds or so overweight.
Stop trying to get the candy everyone else wants and your hunting will be much more profitable.
You know, ladies... You better be ready to take a hit on wealth too. There's lots of ugly old coots who have picked up chippies willing to compromise big time on looks.
Go on a picnic and put a paper bag over his head. You'll be fine.

Seems most singles truns to online dating sites to find their another half. Another surve tells us singles care for $ and looks much more when deciding whether to meet. Is this true? The fact is a lot of dating sites like www.wealthyromance.com emerging out there. These dating site cater for millionaire singles, sexy men and beautiful women. My advise for you is do not stay alone to miss someone, just try some new things like online dating. I believe your life will be changed starting a date!
