Has Anyone Else Been Absolutely Disgusted By Online Dating Experiences, Particularly Match.com?

I met my partner on-line. I admit, I was completely skeptical going in to the on-line experience. I had one terrible date, one so-so date and then I met my partner and fell head over heels in love. We’re celebrating our one year anniversary this month. So far, so very good. We both had bad experiences before we met but if we hadn’t persevered…..
I’d say it’s up to you to refine your search, switch to e-harmony or find another method of meeting singles. There’s good and bad in everything…. Just be patient and truthful.

Online Dating Experiences?

Hi, I realise that online dating still has a lot of stigma attached – that’s its for freaks, desperate people, it’s unsafe, etc. But I have had a positive experience dating online (I met my current boyfriend through RSVP.com.au) . We’ve been together almost a year. I found online dating to be a lot easier than normal – you can search for exactly the kind of person you want. It’s simpler and faster than hoping against hope that your soul mate happens to be in the bar you are at on any given night. Of course, there is always being safe – my man and I chatted for a couple of months before we met, and had our dates in public places, told other people where we were going etc. RSVP actually gives you safety guidelines for meeting people in the real world – so it was nice to have some tips. Turned out my man was just like I though he was from his profile … we’re very happy together. Does anyone else have some positive or negative online dating experiences they want to share?

What Have Been Your Experiences With Online Dating? And Do You Have Any Alternative Ideas?

I lost my mother 3 years ago to breast cancer. It was a really hard road for me and my dad to cope because she was only 43. But its been exceptionally hard watching my dad try to find someone to share his life with. I don’t want him to be alone and its taking him longer than he thought. He’s tried a few of the online dating sites (match, chemistry) and everyone seems more interested in playing silly dating games instead of trying to connect with someone. He’s in his late 40s and really isn’t the go out and meet people type. Anyone have a good experience with one of the dating sites? Or have any other ideas about where he can meet someone?

I’m Thinking Of Doing The Online Dating Thing, Has Anyone Had Good Experiences Or Tips For The Novice?

I have several friends who met their partners online, and both are still very happy years later. In both cases I think they were very honest about who they were, and had been on enough dates to know when it was working.
So I’d suggest you take your time, expect to have a few bad/not so great dates, but give it a chance to meet the right one.
Good luck!

Does Anyone Share Their Experiences With Online Dating(like Match.com)- Any Tips Or Thoughts On It As Well.?

I have tried online dating like match.com- I have noticed a few things and I wonder if any other guys have noticed these things
or is it just me- also any females opinions or insight is welcome also.
I have noticed that
1) I have written to a lot of women& most do not write back
I get a very small response & sometimes unsolciited responses,
like some people say they are from africa or russia & I thinlk
they are scams.
2) alot of women don’t veen look my profile, they just look
at the email real quick.-why do they do this ?
is this the norm? Do guys have a harder time -like
many men writing to one woman ???
3) Its easy to get discouraged- is it worth it to spend my time ???
$0 Any other thought s on it ??
