Is online dating good or bad?
Match.com, eHarmony, and Chemestry.com are just a few of the websites that say they will help you find the one. Even finding love on craigslist though the personals.
Is this a bad idea or good idea? Or are you just ment to find the one when you find them. Maybe they should find you? Discuss here.

Personally I think it should just be when you find that person you'll know. It may sound silly and fairy tale like but isn't that love? Though I have turned to the interent (I know) but its probably only out of desperation. I've been conroically single and lately lonley as I went though another couple weeks of depression.
Its just does not seem the same as a regular romance when you have to look for it viturally.

The best thing would be to find a local person. While,yes, you will find great women, but starting a relationship from a distance can be hard. It's hared than a relationship that starts local and goes distant.

Sorry, its been a long a** time since I've posted here. But I've definitely had my experience with dating websites and trying to find someone in general so let me throw in my two cents here.
First off, many will think that online dating is desperation, but I don't view it that way at all. Think of it like this....its like an atm machine. Its convenient. Assuming they post pics on their profile, you can see what they look like BEFORE you meet them. And ASSUMING they're not lieing about what they say on their profile, you can read about what that person is like before you meet them.
I find that rather convenient. So in general, there's nothing really wrong with it. The one website I found to be COMPLETELY free, letting you send messages and post pics to your hearts delight is okcupid.com Other websites usually charge you and e-harmony is full of s**t. They've been around for a while and STILL can't find a match for me. Go figure....
Be see you pretty much take a chance with someone no matter what strategy you try. You don't know people until you're in person with them, and you don't know them until you live with them. Thus....long distance is a very BAD idea. You can't see them, touch them, kiss them, or what have you and you most DEFINITELY can't assume they're being faithful. I mean they could cheat on you and can easily get away with it. And you wouldn't even know because you're not around them...or near them.
Make sure they're in reachable distance. I mean long distance relationships are like high school relationships.... only 1% last. There hope that sheds some light on opinion levels. Just be careful in what you do. All methods have a risk whether you're in person or not.

I guess it's more of a struck of luck to find someone that way... Don't get me wrong, I have a couple of friends that have met through the web and have really good relationships but I kind of find this method hardly trustful as it depends on how truthfull or sincere people can be. I, for once, don't think of it as a last resort or a desperation move but I also don't see it's usefullness since usually it involves being long distance and all I've said before. sweatdrop

I've met a few great gals (and a few not so great ones burning_eyes ) I really just treat it like regular dating. Big thing is to get to know them on line, but never love online. You'll only get hurt. Love has to be face to face.

All the people I've met from those kind of sites have been... eh... not that great. It made me realize that I wanna just meet someone the old fashioned way.
