11/11 Dating Disasters

Quote From: wildkardde

 I also don't believe in online dating.  Why take something that should be a personal and intimate experience and religate it to the online world which is none of these things.

In regards to the "Perfect 10" thing,  that isn't something that has a finite definition.  Any relationship is always growing and evolving.  People change and what people want changes.   However I would say that I could never marry someone who I didn't think was the most beautiful I had ever seen.   I just couldn't do it any other way.

I am currently using match.com and now I am wondering WHY? I have been on a couple of dates, the one guy I thought we hit it off had alot in common and  then get an e-mail stating we don't have any chemisrty (at least he was honest). Give me a break after one date and he can already tell. I have sent pics of myself to some of these guys and then you don't hear back from them. I am not a tall blonda with big boobs, but I am an attractive woman. So as far as I am concerned this is not the place to try to meet a mate.    

  

I also don't want to sit in the bar trying to meet someone. I am 41, any ideas on how to meet a decent man???

I have some close family friends who met online and have ben married for about 11 years.  He is from UK and she is from US and they would have never met otherwise, but through the internet teh were able to establish a mental and emotienal bond through good communication before they met in person.  Internet dating is often misused, but I think it can be a very good tool. its good to go out of yoru way to meet people and a personal ad is nice becaus eyouc an say this is who I am, if we have something in common lets talk in a safe evironment where you don't share too much personal info. If it doesn't go well, log off and try again.  I.D. just needs to be done responsibly.

If you read these boards, you will note that there are tons of people are out looking to find "the right person".  In fact, some of these people sound completely desperate. 

Why would you condemn on-line match making? 

It is simply another way for people to meet each other. 

I think that for many people on-line services are a great way to meet someone with similar interests. 

Think of how many people work 50+ hour work weeks.  Or, the people who only go to bars to meet someone.  The Internet provides an alternative way for people to come together. 

It does not matter how people meet, it only matters what happens after you meet. 

If someone can find the love of their life after meeting on-line, I say CONGRATULATIONS. 

We are no longer living in the 1950's. 

It is time for people to open their minds, and learn that there is more than one way to an end.
