Online dating sucks

[infrasonic]

I've been on Jdate for almost a month now and meet only one girl in person! I meet a nice attractive girl who was supposed to be in Miami but it turns out she is back in Venesalua and I got a few emails from girls that just didn't cut it for me. I guess if I think about it I have gotten a decent amount of responces, like five or six, the problem

I came across your post.... Sorry if i sound like a jerk..but I don't know why people try online dating, I don't think its an effective way of dating. However, there are some success stories, but I think its just a way for people to sometimes hide behind a pic and biased profile, and not reveal their true selves...just someone who they want to appear as. By your picture I think you are a good looking guy, I don't know why you would have trouble finding a date. But then again, I don't know you. BTW, there is something I learned about dating...never go into the dating world looking for it, but instead just let it come to you, it will come when you least expect it.

I'll tell you why I have trouble finding a date

Because I work all day then go to school or kickboxing and see the same people day in day out, no one new and no time to go meet new people. I don't want to meet girls at clubs, meeting nice girls there is not that easy. Also online dating helps break the ice and lets you know the person on the other end is also looking for someone and what they are looking for. The biggest thing that did it for me though was that a friend of mine is getting married to a girl he meet on jdate, doesn't get much more convincing than that.

doh

I've tried that it just doesn't work. Plus I kind of think you are better than that but hey I could be wrong I've meet people that are happily married b/c of the internet. Love will come to you when you least expect David. You are handsome and one of the sweetest most understanding guys I know. It will come when you are ready for it.

Thanks Mandy

My moms boyfriend's son is getting married to a chick off Jdate though, and I don't have time to meet anyone outside of my bubble.

im a random jdater, and i think your post looks good. very open and sweet, if thats what your going for, plus youre cute. if thats not what youre going for, then id change it.

of course, im on the other side of the country, so i guess it doesnt really matter what i think, does it

You sound too good to be true. Maybe us Jewish girls have given up on finding someone great like you and that's why you aren't hearing back from people. I have never done the online dating thing though.

Geez...maybe I want to be in a relationship again based on your profile. I'm in between the ages of 18 to 24, Single, Never Married, Conservative, in college, not a drinker, and I don't smoke. I also live in FL and have Shabbos dinner with my extended family every week. ;o)

Keep the faith- she'll find you when you least expect it!

The only pictures I have on the computer are touristy Israel pictures (not good for first impressions!).

I tried JDate last year on a dare from my best friend, and the guys that I landed up going out with were jerks or liars. I thought it would be easier to find someone that was Ortho on there, but it just didn't work out for me.
