I get the impression that alot of people don't really understand what dating sites are meant for; or maybe its my interpretation. I think its meant to met people, find out a bit about them, and then if you think they are decent enough continue on and meet them.

I think you wouldn't want to know everything about the other person, because that's what makes dating fun. Maybe that's just the way I feel it should be.

What's your take on this?


My take is you come on a free site you do not have the option to dictate the behavior of other people who use it.

Mingle is a social site that lets people talk about day to day issues usually related to dating and relationships. This helps the people who wish to learn to be more well rounded individuals and have exposure.

The level of exposure that people feel is appropriate is individually controlled. Most who date much have found that it is not a lot of fun to date someone you have nothing in common with. Nor is it safe going out with strangers in todays world.


nicely done :thumbsup:

As opposed to what? Just curious...........smokin

As opposed to finding everything about them before you meet them. Picture this, you talk to someone online for 5 months, and you really like them, so you guys finally meet and the other person. It turns out there are quite different than they are online. You don't like them and now you have just wasted 5 months of your life.

Better to meet someone sooner than later, to keep expectations in check and minimize disappointments.

Liking someone one line and having them different in person doesn't necessarily have to be a waste... friendships are build...so many times the chemistry isn't there in person, doesn't mean it has to be a waste of your life.
Why stop seeing others (those that actually date) while getting to know someone? Just cause you "click" on line doesn't mean they are going to be the love of your life..that is the risk we take, all is fair in love.
