Although, my cousin actually met his wife (a Texan) over the internet....

[Flipside]

LOL I met Sharon over the Internet, though not through online dating

Actually, that's how I met my wife too, Flipside, and like you, it wasn't an online dating thing. It was ISCABBS, as a matter of fact. Some of the users here might recognize it.

If you ever meet me in person though, it becomes immediately obvious why I had to meet my wife online. I might be stunningly handsome, but I've got, as many here will atest, a volatile personality.

[Flipside]

LOL Yep, seen it in action myself, at least your volatile moods are usually backed up by a good bit of research
It took me a long time to find someone who could tolerate my darker moments to be honest, still, it was worth the wait

[Janos]

Flipside, that's why we have acid. Lots and lots of acid.

[Gortef]

Hahaha

Despite the utter desperation inherent in online dating, there seems to be a ton of these websites, and they're all doing great. And they all make it out like you're going to meet nothing but supermodels on there. Loniless will end up revatalizing the IT industry to pre-dot.bomb levels.

[Setekh]

Hehe. I dunno about online dating, never tried it. I only ever meet blokes online

You do? You don't come across that way to me. Perhaps I'm just used to brusqueness from living here.

 I can't stop laughing at this thread and all the replies, sorry...

Under no circumstance should you give someone you meet online a lot of personal information. You could place yourself in the dangerous position of having a date who knows what a loser you are.

Remember, online dating is not for everyone—only the desperate and pathetic.

Don't worry. If you actually meet someone decent over the Internet, the two of you can tell people you met at a party.

[Janos]

I always give my friends' personal information to 13-year old horny little lolitas/jacks I meet ON TEH INTRAWEB!!1

However, they give my number if they meet these specimens in the real life.

Go figure.

[Flipside]

<----------- Is still trying to figure out the acid thing

[color=66ff00]You know if there wasn't such a stigma behind it I'd say that online dating is a pretty clever idea, think about it, you choose the person you want to date not by their features but by their interests and their features. At least you know you're not hooking up with some teenybopper. *shrugs*

I'd call it more sensible than desperate but that's just my way of looking at it.
