You can be ignored by millions and millions of people all over the world, most of whom would never have had the opportunity to know you exist, and thus to make a deliberate decision to ignore you, had it not been for online dating. These are much more impressive numbers than simply being ignored by a few hundred or a few thousand in your hometown.

You got me, I have no idea

come on there has got to be something or you wouldnt be on here

when you travel, you can make friends enough to visit and hang out, and they usually love to show you around, so you get a different perspective of the place you are travelling to, from a local point of view, for good restaurants, and things to do, that you wouldn't know otherwise. i've made great friends from here, but that was my only goal.

it's just like saving money switching to Geico

when you figure it out let me know

Allows both to search at times that are convienent to both but are not necessarily when you would meet the other person. Early morning on a coffee break, while watching TV, after the kids are in bed or playing near by but oblivious, or holidays, or even when feeling ill. I know some people actually look while they are suppose to be working.

Allows both people to visually see the other before meeting. No people don't look all that much like their pictures but if you see snapshots you still have a general idea and can speak to some preferences to size and shape and style. If you IM or Cam you have a good sense of their conversational abilities before you give them your phone which gives them your address.
