Very true kristi..as always your words have wisdom..

Danette_Giavanna I talked to you and you said you were single, and would like to get to know me and your getting married etc etc etc

Oh my goodness. Why would you BE on an online dating site if you don't plan on ever doing just that?

I've dated tons of guys from online, both local and LD. And one I dated on and off for 3 years. So ........... ya.

I guess it is a little late for me to think about that. I have met someone (WolfSpirit) and have moved to be with him. Our plans are to be getting married in April of this year in Ohio.
Wolfie and Sandy

Awwwwwwwwwww!! That is so sweet!!

Congrats to you!!

yeah maybe i go on insticts if i felt like it could be real then i'll risk it

Sandy good to see you back and better to hear that all is still going great for you both congrats on the wedding

I have dated a man seriously that I met online, I even moved from Tx to Fl tolive with him, We tried to make it work for 6 months, it didn't, so I came back to Tx, and we are still friends,

Thanks all for the replies. and a special thanks for Txs...yes...all is well with us. and remember...Your time is coming..... wolfie and sandy

Yes... I met four guys from this site alone, and I'm keeping the fourth one! We met here, in the threads.

Hellkitten~ I am jealous of your 96 miles as well, but I understand it is not so much the actual distance but everything else. I'm very happy for the both of you.

Point is... this site (and Internet dating in general) does work. It, like everything, takes commitment, patience, and openmindedness. I prefer it to blind dates. My last blind date was a recovery addict... and I'm so looking forward to no more blind dates in my lifetime.

Yes I have dated men that I met online.

Yes I would...any takers?

I've dated online a few times; with not too good results(same as with IRL dating so far I guess; which explains why I'm on a dating site! Yes I know, I'm the Master of the Obvious.).

I never understood why a lot of people seem to downtalk online dating and whatnot; I've met a lot of really cool people from my small town that I didn't even know existed; and have a few friends across the globe that I frequently talk to.

It's just like meeting someone in person and getting to know them for the first time; the liars will lie no matter what; the idiots will be idiots; the mean a-holes will do what they do; and every once in a while you'll run into someone that's cool.

why not isnt this what most of us are here for?

Yes I would

Depending on if they live close enough so it can become an actual relationship where I can see them all the time.
