Would you recomment Internet dating?
I've actually just gotten into it myself. And it's completely scary and different. But, I have yet to meet someone strange. And, actually yesterday, I had a very enjoyable date, that will have a follow up this weekend. So, sure, I'd reccommend it. Just be careful! Tell a friend where you're going, and meet in public, just be safe.
Reply:yeah. just be smart about it. i've gone on a couple of great dates with a really hot guy that i met on the internet.
Reply:no because. its easy to lie and say false info and it can be someone crazy and might try to hurt u. its better to meet someone from a restrant or a club. its way safer then meeting ppl from online.
Reply:no, it just never works out and its to much to wory about, what happens if your computer breaks or something, the what
Reply:I'm doing yahoo personals and it seems ok but there are some characters on there. Big nast beast and some woman I have seen have used fake pictures.

I highly recommend it!





Here's my tips for successful internet dating:


1. Don't waste time trying to "get to know" someone online - it's impossible. If you like his profile and he emails you, send him your phone number and ask if he wants to meet at a coffee shop to bring it into the "real world". I went on about 100 coffee dates, about a third of those led to second dates, I seriously dated about 3 of those guys, and I married one of them.





2. Pick your criteria and stick with it... mine were that he had to live close enough to meet me for coffee easily, he had to have a good job, he had to be my religion, and he had to want to get married and have kids. I didn't care what he looked like.





3. As long as he doesn't completely repulse you, give him a chance. People can grow on you. Let him take you out a few times... My husband is my best friend, my lover, and my favorite person on Earth - but he took a while to spark my interest b/c he was 50lbs overweight when we met! I'm so grateful I gave him a chance!

online dating gives you such a larger variety of people to choose from so you are no longer limited to people nearby...





it makes the world a smaller place








and if the connection is strong enough.. you can always meet up





but...





you need to be aware of liars.. so if you were to meet, get everything confirmed first... and even try to bring a friend to your first meeting! (always better to be safe!)
