Since online dating is so prevalent in today's society, and all of you seem to already be online, I thought this would be a good place to discuss the subject.

Things one could discuss include:

• Success stories
• Horror stories
• Preferred websites
• Strategy questions & advice
• How you feel about online dating in general

I met my boyfriend online and I'm curious about other people's experiences.

Are you fugly like most women on dating sites are?

pics of bf!

I think it's more likely that op is a gay guy.

I dont use that.
As long as i have a gf at least every 1-2 years, i dont intend to use it.
But i get older and will follow this thread with interest, cause it wont take too long till i will need it for sure.

Gay until proven otherwise. With pics ofc.

If people partake in an informative discussion on the aforementioned topic, I will post pics.

Carry on.

Why are so many new accounts popping up? Has 4L turning into a non-NSFW attracted normal people? Wtf is wrong with this world?!

As for online dating, I don't fancy it because:

1 - Too many women post pics that are 99% not them
2 - Only people who can't get laid in RL use it
3 - Since I cannot email you a pic of my peen and can't physically get it sucked the whole concept is redundant

Never used online dating. Can't trust the pics.

Besides, picking up girls isn't exactly rocket science. They like sex as much as we do so w/e

Do you feel embarrassed when people ask how you met?

I used to be somewhat embarrassed, but now I think it's kind of funny and not at all embarrassing.

If you're into a fetish, online dating sites are good for finding like-minded perverts.

Whatcha into, OP?

i find the most success with jdate

pics of you and boyfriend?

dont post any pics of yourself

dr jelly i miss u
ur old friend mr pacman

Ive tried talking to a couple of girls through online dating and as soon as i tell them im a pro poker player they snap stop talking to me? anyone else have this problem? Has put me off using it.

thats no surprise, most women want a man with a stable job which brings in the monnies, and they think poker is just gambling

i've moved a few times over the past 4-5 years. prior to my first gf after my 3yr live-in gf relationship that ended in 2009, i never met a girl online.

after she broke up w/ me, i had already moved to RI with her and lived w/ her for another month (by necessity). after that, i had no resources to meet people and joined match.com for the first time. i found it pretty demoralizing at first as few people would respond. then i met an amazing girl and we dated for 9mo before i moved back to NY.

when i moved back to ny i joined match again and after dating a few girls off match for 2-3weeks each, then a modern orthodox girl for 2 months, i joined jdate. i met a great girl there and we dated for another 9-10mo but i broke up w/ her b/c i coudlnt' see myself spending the rest of my life w/ her and she was 35 while i was 31 at the time.

that was this past december and since then i've been using just match and pof since jdate i think is for more serious, when i'm ready to potentially settle down again type stuff.

overall, i'd say i'd be embarrassed to say i met somebody on pof, though i would say it and not make up some random crap. match and jdate are mainstream now so i'd have no embarrassment saying i met somebody off there.

that said, i feel much better telling people real stories. i went on a few dates w/ a girl i picked up at hunter mountain on the ski lift and that story was GREAT. girl wasn't into me though so that sucked.

i have no 'horror' stories. i do have 2nd hand horror stories from girls (girls i think have way more horror stories than guys do in general i think).

most of my experiences have been positive and i've had 2 serious relationships, one of which resulted in me having one of the best friends i currently have and the other ended badly b/c she wanted to get married, asked me to move in and had an A personality so she took the breakup poorly

I've met my last two girlfriends through online dating, one through Match and one through OKCupid. The last one was a serious relationship that lasted a year and a half, and I certainly wasn't embarrassed to tell anyone how we met. Basically all of my friends who are single have online dating profiles.

I've never understood POF though. Both the software and the quality of people on the site seem much lower to me than either Match or OKCupid, and yet it seems like the site that gets the most discussion on the internet. I've put up a profile on the site, but have never found anyone appealing on it. Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

Pof is more for just finding sloots to bang iirc.

I have met 3 girls through online dating sites. Banged them all on first date so great success (2 were hot, one average but also a masseuse).

Of the 3 one became my proper GF and I never thought I would give a crap about saying we met online but then when someone actually asked how we met I found myself lying through my teeth hahaha.

Oh this reminds me “Online dating” Indian style is arranged marriage sites where profiles are created and managed by the parents! Match criteria includes in-depth horoscope details, cast, sub cast, clan, family values (i.e. traditional or moderate), Ancestral Origin, annual income, family class (i.e. upper middle class), fathers and mothers occupation and number of brothers and sisters! I’m not using the sites BTW my education doesn’t meet the parent’s requirements! Ahahaha. http://www.bharatmatrimony.com/

Remember how I made a thread on getting a date on craigslist? Well I had no real intention on going on one. I was just trying to check out the stock of guys in 4L.

jelly find the thread.

lol online dating makes rejection much easier.
