Trust your instincts, they are there for a reason. Try to socialize with people in your own town who you trust.

Its a scam to make someone else money . Your better off going to myspace or on of the other sites like it . There you have more control of who you meet and how much info you want to devulge .
Reply:Online dating isn't for everybody, because some people just don't feel right about trying it.
Reply:Most of the sites are more commercial than with actual helpful approach...
Reply:Myspace is more about self promotion. That's why bands use them. Have a look elsewehere if it's not your style.
Reply:yeah it is pretty weird i used to have myspace but i got rid of it cuz weirdos kept emailing me and wanting to request me as their friend and if i dont know the person it's kinda strange telling everything about myself. Some of my friends do internet dating I personally would never do it cuz i like meeting people and getting to know them in person.
Reply:Myspace isn't a dating site... but anyways...I think if you feel bad about it don't do it. you feel that way for a reason.
Reply:I think many online dating sites are where those who couldnt get a date anywhere else go.
Reply:People in real life are the best to meet. Work, school, other activities will help you meet people faster than anything. And you can see a face at the beginning and get a feel for the person right away before you ever decide to date them.
Reply:I also feel odd posting my pictures on such sites. After all, other people may also lie about themselves. Those Internet dating sites are created just to bring two desperate people together. And the person might not know you at all. Hence it is kind of dangerous. Maybe the cringy feeling you get is a form of intuition to prevent you from entering a trap. (=
Reply:You need to get laid and get back into the game.
Reply:I don't think the stigma we fear from others is even close to the one we impose on ourselves.
Reply:Well I think it just depends on each person. Me my self I would not look for a date on line. first of all you never who knows who is really on the other end of the net. People can even put a pic and you still dont no if that is really them or not. I mean alot of people are real but then again there is alot of wierd persons out there and you also must be carefull at same time. I think just for a friend or just chatting with someone is fine. I just would not do it my self . But that all depends on you.
Reply:I am not a fan of internet dating. I know many who do it, but I had a myspace acct and deleted it. People need to go out and socialize!! Its easier to go online and meet someone, but you never know who this person really is. And I dont like my pic on the internet either. People save your images and can use it as thier own. I hate it. I don't feel comfortable...I'm with you.
Reply:I'm a dating consultant that specializes in online dating. AND I am married to the woman that I dated online for a number of months!





Don't feel awkward about the effort and work that you spend doing so... it's actually much easier and less work than dating in public!





Get out there and get to know people... spend the time to get to know them online first... so that you truly know that you want to date them in person!
