The dangers and cons of dating sites..


Recommended Posts

Yes, why not get a new partner at the same time you order your groceries :D

 

Seriously though, where does someone meet a potential partner in the real world (so to speak)?

 

In the real world I suppose.

 

Always used to be in bars and clubs, on holiday or simply being out and about. I think it's a shame if agencies are the first place to look but obviously life gets in the way of living now.

I go out all the time, but don't tend to go up to strangers and make a pass at them.

 

You're just scared of rejection. Quite normal. But you're not making a pass at them, you're striking up an unexpected fun conversation. Just be funny and charming. I dare you to step out of your comfort zone and strike up a conversation with the next female you are attracted to when out and about. He who dares wins. Faint heart never won fair maiden init bro.

Sign of the times. Suppose it's the easiest method for those who don't have/won't make time to go out of their way to converse with someone at a bar or wherever.

 

I have met and dated women through internet dating and via the normal old fashioned channels. Both with varying degrees of success :)

 

You didn't spot dozy with her tongue hanging out at the last forum meet ;)

 

Something was hanging out, not sure if you could call it her tongue :D

I could rise to your challenge, but not sure how my wife would react to my newfound challenge :D

because before you suscribe you get load of winks and profiles looking onto your profiles now some dont have a pic thats because 100% of them are fake even with photos on you can easily copy a photo from google even famous people.

But there are lots of people here and elsewhere who've met people and gone on to marry them, so it must work for some people!

How sad did it use to be having to resort to a dating site?

 

Now, and nothing's changed, it's sort of acceptable.

 

Yeah.

 

Sad people looking for each other.

 

Are you in a relationship Owethemnowt? If you are would you have described yourself as sad when you were looking to be in one?
