Well, and I also tend to already know the people I'm friends with on Facebook...and I sure as hell wouldn't date any of them!
Facebook is generally for interacting with people you already know in some capacity. Dating sites are for interacting with people you don't.
That's exactly it. The name doesn't really make sense if you think about it... it's not "online dating," it's "online meeting people." You still date them the normal way

Match.com is funny, as in odd. I window shop there for entertainment, but if you notice, for some odd reason the number of people who have viewed your profile changes strangely. ie, One day you'll log in to see 50 people have seen your profile. Log in three days later, and the number mysteriously has dropped to 48 people. Come back again, and it's back up to 50.
I do the same on Yahoo Personals because sometimes the fake profiles are a hoot. So far, I've spotted two women from my building, at work, on Yahoo. I think they've both found fellers as I've not seen their profiles again.

That's what I meant by "matching algorithm".
There's a lot more that goes into that then just an algorithm for giving you percentages. People both present and interact differently as a result... it's a totally different social context.

I dunno, I'm sure there are some people that think they have "online girlfriends."
Are you saying that being in love with her is "hit or miss"?
No no no, my apologies.
Online dating is hit or miss. You could spend months on any service winking at countless people like me, or you could spend a few days on there and find the love of your life like my girl.
Hmmm, I don't know anything about audio/video production and I don't own a kilt. So, I can't find a gal like what you have.
Gawd bless.
I'm just saying it's a hole I see so many guys fall into. They think because they listen to a girl's problems and become "close" that they have a shot-- where the girl has long pegged the guy as an platonic friend with virtually no relationship future there.
What you're talking about is maintaining healthy friendships with the opposite sex that have potential for something else-- not obsessing over an asexual friendship to your own emotional detriment.
Meh. Anyone can do what I do. Ask around in TNZ, all I do is hold a microphone in NASA's basement.
And you can get a kilt online. They don't have a blood test to see if you're Scottish enough.
You are not a bad-looking fellow RJH. Let your dick do the thinking. It knows more than you imagine.I don't know how to do that.I think you should get into more casual sex and see where it goes from there, but maybe that's just me.
Irish wear them too, ya know

Besides, I'm a Kraut mixed with Polish. I'd have the damned thing on my head in the most exacting manner.

Not if they know what's good for 'em. *shakes fist*

If only it were that easy.
You have to be nice and also flirtatious at the same time in a situation like that. You can't be like, "Oh, tell me all your problems!!!!11"
