Thinking about internet dating is it worth a shot?

Im in my mid twenties and have never even been on a proper date or had a relationship. I have fancied guys in the past. But have had responses like 'I would never fancy you, I would never go out with you'. Tends to knock your confidence after that sort of statement! I don't think im unattractive and I have been told im cute etc quite a few times. Anyway some of my friends have met boyfriends over the internet and are very happy however my male friends think Its sad (or at least I get that impression). One of them joked that im so picky I only fancy about 1% of the male population! I live in a village and its quite tough meeting people, hence the reason alot of my friends have tried internet dating, I go clubbing but am not a big fan of meeting guys in clubs. I also find I don't generally fancy someone until I know them quite well as personality is quite important to me however I also need to be physically attracted to someone as well. so looks are important as well.

Thinking about internet dating is it worth a shot?
Hey it's worth a try! I met my spouse on yahoo personals but it took me several years of hard lessons to find the right one. Just keep a very open mind and exspect nothing in particular from a date, if you go out with someone and you don't hit off delete him or her and get them out of your life quick, and go onto to the next date dinner is always good or lunch never give out to much info so that if it dont work you can be done with it. always meet in a public place don't pick them up and don't let them pick you up. Good Luck hope that makes some since to you lol

Reply:Anything has a risk factor,you know the risk factor involved in this,are you prepared to pay the price,very often an exciting,gives you a buzz male,is very unreliable regarding a relationship.You also have the disability of making at a distance judgements,very often wrong.YOU SOUND AS THOUGH YOU CANNOT STAND TO LOSE OR BE DISAPPOINTED.
Reply:Nasty guys saying that to you. Lucky escape for you. I dont think there is anything wrong with meeting people on the internet as long as you are careful. Good luck to you.
Reply:Give it a go! You can learn to sort the chaff from the wheat quite quickly on the net, without wasting too much time %26amp; effort!


You can get to know other people by exchanging e-mails, and photo's before deciding if you want to meet and take things further.


Give it a shot, what have you got to loose?
Reply:go for it i got a brilliant site for you to use its in the link below
Reply:Why not? Safer than being picked up in a club as long as you meet in a public place and take things slowly and do not believe everything you are told online.





Internet dating is what you make of it I would imagine. I have friends who have met via Internet and are now married.





Use a reputable site and do not pay a fortune and what do you have to lose?
Reply:give internet dating a shot the thing with that is you never know who u are talking to or if u can trust them or they may be married and acting single or could be way older than u or a minor at least in real life u see what u get but hey u may get lucky u never know unless u try good luck
Reply:Go fo it - at the end of the day what have you go to lose? I have just received a wedding invite from a couple who met online!





I met my other half on a dating site too and we have been together for ages and are very happy!
Reply:Try it but be very careful
Reply:Yep, met my husband initially on dating Direct and my friend has just married the guy she met on line.Before meeting my husband had some really great dates good fun
Reply:Yes go for it! I met my husband via the internet. We got to know about each other via email etc and eventually talked on the phone then we arranged a date........ We have been married now for 6 years and we are very happy. What have you got to lose? I suppose there are some tricky people out there but you have to kiss lots of frogs to find your prince!


Good luck xxx
Reply:i wouldnt do it love.its not worth the hassle.my wifes having an affair on line %26amp; its totally ruined our marriage of 14 yrs.there are people out there who just do it to ruin families.please make sure they are single %26amp; not a weirdo before you go into it :)
Reply:If physical attraction and getting to know someone is important to you before you fancy them, the internet is about the worst place to look for a mate. People constantly put themselves across as something they are not, physically and mentally and could set you up for some very big disappointments.


Why do you seem to think the only place to meet someone is in a club or on the internet? It really is no wonder you have never had a proper date or relationship. I suggest going to real places and meeting some real people in their own element - drunks and people hiding behind their keyboards are not necessarily real.


As much as some may say work is a bad place to find someone, it certainly beats the avenues you are persuing. Go to the places that you enjoy - if those are museums, library, bookshops, music shows or whatever.


Fate will lend a hand - you will eventually meet that right one in a place you least expect it!
Reply:I thought you were already crowned in tribes ....like a ritual... hummmmmm . Speak to your village chief for insight!! lol...lol...pickey girl........
Reply:I totally recommend it! I am dating a great guy that I met online. I think it is a great option to give yourself to meet new people. I've made some great friends in addition to my guy. It is a great way to screen out potential weirdos too. Good luck with it!
Reply:I prefer the smaller dating sites and the niche sites. I recommend trying

Reply:I met my husband online... and at first I wouldn't even date him!! Just be safe, its like meeting people anywhere.
Reply:Well from me to you i would say go with your heart and always bring someone in the with you, just in case the person you meet is a nutcase. You will find that people find it very amusing to hurt people for fun. have fun dating you will find your soulmate.
Reply:im an older person trying to give you my best advice .


in the past i would have immediately said no! never! dont do it!


i do now think a littlle differently BUT BE CAREFUL


I have a couple of friends who both date via the internet, one of them quite successfully and she has a great social life but the other has had many problems and by that i mean meeting people who are not as nice as they seem


i would say dont just rely totally on the internet for getting to know people , there are plenty of clubs and courses where you can socialise


always meet in public places and not just for the first few dates. tell people where you are ,take a friend (reliable ) with you and also stick to any other known pieces of advice about dating
Reply:sure its worth a shot, so is going to the bar, so is meeting people at the supermarket its about what you feel comfortable with just have an openmind and you'll be ok oh yeah be yourself too that makes sure things actually last
