It depends on how they approach you, and their efforts to at least try. It's certainly possible to find someone on the net, it's nothing more than another form of communication looked down upon those in majority stigma. With so many people meeting in different ways; Myspace, Facebook, Plentoffish, World of Warcraft, and so many others, it's hard to keep saying it's "creepy" anymore. If you only want to limit yourself to your state or area, that's fine. But me, I'd like to think she can be anywhere.
So you really think you could meet "the one" online? - 5 months ago

Wow... must you use such sarcasm and spite about online meeting? What I mean is, I'm not ruling that out, not that she is certainly in "here". - 5 months ago
This wasn't actually sarcastic lol, I really was interested to know if you thought you could find your soulmate online. So what would you do I you connected with someone on here that lived at the other side of the world? Would you just forget it even though she could be the one or would you travel around the world to meet her? - 5 months ago
Answerer
I'd approach it with skepticism, and just take it slow Angel. I'd show little interest but still keep my options open you know. I'd look at our conversations, how we connect and if we have anything in common. Plus my personality is really flexible, and I'm the type to easily adapt. So it would be really difficult, but I wouldn't rule it out. I'd see what type of person she is. It wouldn't hurt to just explore just a little rather than just ignore. - 5 months ago
Yeh I get what you mean, I'm the person that would probs just ignore instead of explore lol. I'd just think it was too much hassle when I could just meet someone in real life who live near and that I didn't have to study as much. - 5 months ago
Answerer
Well it also has to do with my personality Angel. Writing is a major extension of my personality, and I love studying people. - 5 months ago
But don't overlook the fact that you would have to approach dating from a completely different perspective. Unlike face-to-face contact, where people can slowly get to know one another, internet and phone dating is a much faster process, and people "romanticize" the whole event, feeling so much closer, much faster. But it may not be as realistic. So be cautious- go slow and REALLY get to know the person. But I agree, you can find love anywhere in the world; even online. - 5 months ago
The odds of meeting anyone worthwhile are very very slim... Most of us are on here for laughs or advice. I would have to say anyone with a dating agenda on this site is probably some kind of deviant :(
Don't do it. This is a help site. Has a male friend ever helped you out when you were feeling down? After you felt better you had these feelings for him? Well, he had feelings for you too? Although it seems allright that you both share these feelings, however, they didn't start off on the best circumstances therefore it won't cultivate into something meaningful.
I use to help a friend of mine after she had a breakup (well two breakups but that's a different story). I didn't know what to say or offer her, but I was there. When she cried, I didn't say much, but she had my shoulder. After a while she felt a lot better and was moving on. We went to church together. One night she invited me up to her room. Yeah, I really wanted to go. I really wanted to have sex with her, the moment I first met her I wanted to rip off her blouse and pull her hair back. But I didn't. I didn't think it would be good. I thought I would be taking advantage of our friendship and her situation.
LOVE HAS NO DISTANCE...PPL DAT JUDGE ON LOVE R PPL DAT I LIK 2CALL JUDGEMENTAL LOVE LMFAO...ITZ ALL ABT HOW MUCH EFFORT You PUT IN 2 IT...INCLUDIENG COMMUNCATING...
I would never date guys from this site. I am sure there are lots of decent guys here, but there are enough creepazoids that I would be suspicious of anybody I met here. I would be very cautious because you never know if they are just putting up a front to seem nice. Ted Bundy got the confidence of the women he raped and killed because he was somewhat attractive, and he presented himself as nice and helpful. Maybe I am overly paranoid, but I wouldn't take any chances with anybody I only knew from the internet, especially a site like this.
I certainly believe that this website is more conducive to meeting someone and deciding whether or not they had a worthy character and personality. Personal profiles on most dating websited can be fabricated, and doesn't show their "quirks". But answering questions that require your own personal opinion, you see someone for who they really area. So this is a great way to get to know someone... for being online, at least.
I know I've met a few guys that seem to be cultured, educated, funny and respectful. Things that are on the top of my list when looking for a guy. Of course, you have to be physically attracted to someone, but after a few months, the looks fade anyway. A chiseled jawline can't hold together a relationship for years. (although I'm sure most of us wished it could!)
But yes, you can meet "the one" here. You can meet them anywhere- the supermarket, a bar, church, bowling alley, gas station, etc... It's all a matter of destiny. Romantic, isn't it ? :)
If you were in a different country it would have to just be a long distance relationship. Personally, I think you're very desperate if you start a relationship with someone on this site.
I think that it's possible for those that at least try. I don't really like the idea of net dating at all, but it's certainly plausible to find someone. What about Deaf people? What about those that are blind, how is that any different from always having "blind dates". All joking aside, I wouldn't call someone who at least tried, desperate. - 5 months ago
Answerer
Yeh but blind dates are very different to dating someone online. Anyone who meets anyone on here will just be in an online relationship with them until they meet in person. Being involved in an online relationship isn't like a real life relationship. If they meet up then at least it's a proper relationship but I just think it's desperate to have to meet a partner on this site-they do that because noone in real life wants them. - 5 months ago
Then that's just your opinion then. And the Blind, was to make a small point. They might be different yet it involves a certain... sense. Get it? Anyhow what makes you so sure, "No one wants them in real life". Look at my pics, if you don't mind? Do I look the desperate type to you? Yet I don't rule out the possibility? Like I said, I don't like the idea of internet dating too much, but I'm not about to look down on others. - 5 months ago
Answerer
No you don't look desperate. Then again you're not dating anyone from this site. I just don't get how that could work, it would be a lot of effort for some random person online. - 5 months ago
Angel, if I noticed more and more of the little things about you, and saw you were a great catch, I'd do everything in my power to at least try. I wouldn't think of you as just some "random person". That's the kind of guy I am or at least try to be. - 5 months ago
Answerer
Well you sound like a good guy, I must be a bitch because I would really struggle to think of that person as anything other than a random person off the internet. But I get what you're saying. I suppose someone like me could miss out on something special by refusing to date anyone online. - 5 months ago
For sure not! lol Anyone that used this site for any other purpose than to give advice is a creeper and desperate. If you want to find a date online use a free dating site, there's some advice.
