Mc Toejam, please!

Thanks everyone else for your advice. Kinda puts me off though, you can meet crazy people through Message boards and chats too though.
And IRL.  People can suck no matter where/how you meet them.  I was talking with a friend about this yesterday and I think if you take the right precautions it can be an almomst even tradeoff.  On the one hand, the person on the net might not be who they say they are; on the other, the same may be true to some extent to someone you meet IRL.  Further, the dating sites usually have info about the other person posted right up front; meeting up IRL, you don't get much info beyond looks before you talk to the person.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

If you are desperate for a relationship, then go for it. I started online when I was 20 but never registered to any dating sites but only one. I realized if I can’t meet men in real life because of my shyness, then I will do it through the internet because I do better on there. Then I meet them in real life but if they make me uncomfortable online or freak me out, I don’t meet them. There is this one guy here in Portland I met online on the dating site and I decided I don’t want to meet him because he is always talking about wanting to have sex with me and keeps asking me “why not?” when I say “no” and he says “Don’t you want to make daddy happy?”
So I think that is all he is after and who knows what he will try to do to me if I was naïve enough to actually meet him. Maybe I should go ahead and meet him and bring my boyfriend with and watch them fight using words since he has told me he would nail him if he did anything to hurt me.   :laugh:


Italics where I was kidding.

that guy sounds freaky. don't meet him Spokie.

i've done it, several times, and it worked for me.  just be careful, cos they attract nutters - tesla's advice is perfect.  and don't publish any revealing photos.

If you're worried that a pic might be too revealing, post it here and we'll give our opinions on it.

Angry men or angry sites?

Get hit on by anyone half-interesting yet?  (You're female, so I'm making the assumption you've gotten hit on.  :P)

I don't know why there would be especially angry people on dating sites.   Frustrated men that have no love life maybe?

Angry men. Lets just say I suck at replying and it gets taken the wrong way. But most people just don't interest me and I don't have time to write that out all the time.

You do a good deal of ignoring online because you can't be bothered?  Most people don't interest you as friends casually?   I can understand why most wouldn't romantically interest you, as there is more involved.

To be honest, meeting someone off the net is one of the most awkward things i've ever had to do. If I'm going to keep doing it, I want to make sure it's worth it first.
