I am investigating the world of Online Dating.

If you're quick enough, look for Match.com profile/userid
bbade800. The pictures that person posted of "herself" are Kim Kardashian :lol:
 
Here's something, on my recent trip tonight to a dating site I go to, I got a few entries.....

One was 19, check
She's less than 20 miles from me, check
She's got a cute face and excellent body, check
She's looking for someone to date AND casual encounters, check
She's bisexual, check
She posted "Sorry guys, but I am not looking for a boy friend. No men.", Say what now?

If you are saying you are bisexual, and saying you don't wanna a guy...you are a lesbian, not bisexual. Has 'lesbian' become such bad thing for a girl to be called, she now decides to be an orange when she's actually an apple?


Another annoying trend, I seen a cute profile of a 22 year old and said, "Don't message me if you are over 24." That sure is a nice way to rain on a parade.
 
I'm guessing a hot bi chick can score guys in RL anytime she wants, and is using the site to connect with likeminded women, which are probably a rarity.

The ratio of guys to women on these sites is likely something like 5 to 1, so they have to be very blunt upfront about what they're looking for to avoid getting spammed.
 
It's been my experience that on-line dating services can work. That's how I met Mrs.Q2. :) After my first marrage ended and I was ready to give relationships/dating another chance, I tried the bar scene and every "fix up" the friends and family pulled together. With my job, spare time and oppertunities to meet women were few and far between. I joined a site (one of the very few at the time), put together a honest profile and the rest is history. Next month will be our 10th. year Wedding Anniversary.

My advice, treat an on-line site just as another way to meet people and be youself from there.

Circus freaks. Ya know, like the Bearded Lady!


Teh big fat butch bearded lady, or the attractive one who is she shaves it off, would be hot stuff? :D

What's funny is how women, in general, believe that a majority of married men are looking to shag on the side. Married in my book means no divorce has been granted. In the past few months of my window shopping on Match.com, there is at least two women per week who list themselves as "Currently Separated".

Just look at the infidelity stat's.

Consider skipping your shower and showing up drunk.
Well, I won't be skipping the shower, but the drunk thing might be a good idea. :p

Get drunk during the date...not before. That way you'll be able to ply her with drinks as well.

Good Luck -- I've been "in love" via the internet more times than I can count only to have it all ripped away when we meet.
 
Well, here's a sad turn of events. I ended up getting sick the other day, so I had to cancel our meet-up. And now I keep getting more sick with each passing day, so I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.
 
Look on the bright side, you couldn't have expected you'd be sweating through the night that early in the relationship, if it weren't for trusty pig flu. ;)

Make sure she knows that you are actually sick, and not just avoiding the date.

Good advice... I suggest also telling her to dress up in her best nurse's uniform and come to see you. That always works.

Whenever they say, "What should I wear?" I always say, "Don't wear anything on my account."

The reaction always provides a lot of insight.

If she just wants a girl, she outta put "Lesbian" under orientation. Because saying "Bisexual" tells males that

1: She's looking for girls AND guys.
2: There is a chance to hook up with her.
3: Most bisexual girls I know are alot more fun to be with than just heterosexual chicks.

When she's saying bi and NO MEN, she's more like dangling the hook in front of yas and yanking it away when you read her profile. Not to mention that some girls are strict lesbians and don't want bi girls...so these girls are sort of lowering their own hopes for success if one thinks about it. :rolleyes:
 
Well the bi thing must be for the benefit of the woman she's looking for, to inform her that she needs someone to join her and her probably existing boyfriend. :D

Once again, Holdfast offers some brilliant advice.

Hey, it's what I get paid for.

Not only insight, but very time-efficient too.

They outta just say it, then. These whole "NO MEN" despite being bisexual makes em look like a bunch of uppity prudes. :p
 
Phrases that get really old in these profiles I'm reading on either Match.com or Yahoo Personals:
"I love to laugh"
"I can dress up for a night on the town"
"I'm not frilly but I do know how to dress up like a girly-girl"

There are others, but those ALWAYS appear. I need a puking emoticon.
