Well, they should be. People here misrepresent themselves frequently. There are many honest, decent people on here and some who are just masquerading as such. Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference at first.

Yes, it is very sad. It has caused me more pain than it was ever worth. But you live and you learn.

My brother has been married to his wife that he met online for 10 years now...and he caught all kinds of grief at first. I don't think they'd have an issue. Besides, they know how choosy I am, so know I'd get a good one no matter where I found him. :tongue:

I can deal with that. If I know someone isn't nice, I can avoid them. It's when you trust them and then find out they aren't what they pretended to be that you get hurt.

would be automatically sceptical of someone you've met online?


Hell, I would be automatically skeptical about someone I've met on line. Or anywhere else, for that matter.

But it's nobody else's business.

Back to the original post topic. My friends and family are fully supportive since they know I'm going to do whatever the hell I want anyway. I guess they figure why not get on board...

That is true in theory, but sometimes our family and friends have their own ideas about what is and what is not their business.

Well, I told my mom about my recent 'incident'. She suggested I go back to bars to meet men. I reminded her I met my ex husband in a bar. She then said, okay. You go back to the Internet.... at least you figured this one out before you married him! laugh

Meh -- I have no family, and my friends know better than to say anything, anyway. Nobody else's opinion would even carry any sort of potential relevance....
