Ugh. Online dating sites can really suck. I was a part of one out of curiosity--Emode match. Basically, I wanted to take the test you could take. *laugh*
After I had a profile, I started getting emails from men 10 years older than me, who already had wives and whatnot. I even was sent a photo from one man who was dressed as a pimp. I kid you not. It's really quite insane.
Although, I guess I shouldn't knock it too much. I also had snuck my LJ address in there, and that's how my current boyfriend found me. He didn't have an account, so he wouldn't have been able to contact me had I not put in there...Thank God in Heaven that I did.
yeah....i know there is good out there...i'm just not finding it.
however, by nipping it in the bud -- something just didnt seem right with mr "my cell fone is my home fone" which is the ONLY reason i chek'd... i'm more than a little discouraged...especially since the one that was closer...also bagged out. i feel more than a little...hum......socially unacceptable. ::cries::
what i meant to say, by nipping it in the bud...i'm dealing with it less, but still -- i feel that i may be becoming overly sensitive to the bullsh**t out there.
Speaking on behalf of all bastards out there, I'm sorry! Yeah we men can be thoughtless, stupid, and cruel, but it goes both ways. I've been given the runaround by women on this here puter thingy.
I'm not defending the actions of anyone out there in cyberland. All I can say to you is becareful, be honest to yourself, and don't let the actions of one or two spoil your life.
I read your journal when you post and i find it interesting reading. Which, I might add, means I find you interesting.
just tired of the BS...logged onto that site last nite...the guy that im'd me wanted me to give me his number, i told him i dont give mine out initially....but he could give me his (that means, i'll call) he gave me his......EMAIL address...
he wanted to call me, but i could have his email address...*click* yeah, i closed the conversation.
i've had it. not dating wont ruin my life. it makes me feel i am socially undesirable..but if i'm not focusing on dating, i can focus on what *I* want. fuq em. and yes, i will NOT use a whole hand while waving at em......
I know this might sound crazy, but have tyou thought of looking for someone in your home town? Like we used to do in the good old days, ie the 80's!
You know its much safer than finding on here. 1 out of 10 people you meet on here are wierdos, strange people that well, you know what. Then in dating groups, clubs, etc, it gets to be even higher 2 out of 5 are strange. The down side is you have no clue who they are, if they are good at writing they can string you a line so convincing it's scarey.
o i kno that online dating is far worse than actually going out.
i was trying a group that was like what i was looking for. and it's not like i wrote these guys first. they wrote me.
i do kno, i'm thru. i've had it. it was just proof positive that there is NOT someone out there for everyone. some, like myself, are not meant to have someone.
