5 months with this one I met online now. Time has really flown! It feels like yesterday... This is probably after a dozen or so other online dates. Most only one date. Another got up to half a dozen..
I really like this girl. I get along better with her than I do my best friends, which is crazy. I finally found someone I feel really comfortable around. I don't see this ending any time..
Haven't told her I love her yet. That's the next step.. just waiting for the right time. Still feels early..
Yeah I’ve been on it for about a year, I’ve had good dates and some bad/awkward dates, even flew interstate to meet someone whom I still have high regards for, the long distance has me a bit weary though. The first thing I read after looking at pics is their taste in music, it's my way of pre judging someone. There’s nothing wrong with giving it a go, it can be a bit addictive at first, but I’m getting over it now.

I joined match.com a while back. Had no luck and stopped. Recently re-joined. Met two people. First date went ok, but really didn't feel a connection (don't think she did either). The second girl I went out last Sunday, I went I thought it went real well. We had lots in common and the conversation went pretty good. However tried calling her to see if she wanted to go out again no answer, twice. So I e-mailed her. She said she did have a good time but didn't really fell there could be a relationship She still wants to be friends, not me it's her yadda yadda yadda. :(

Odds are you're going to have a number of dates that don't work out....Don't be discouraged by one mismatch...be encouraged that you managed to find two dates in what sounds like a relatively short timespan
I revised my online dating profile about a month ago and wow....putting some time and effort into the thing makes a huuuge difference! Apparently women really aren't that shallow, and they actually read them....The response thusfar has been very positive...but get this: I'm now talking to 3 women from the site (met 2 in person so far, making plans to meet the third this week).....all 3 are named Amanda. WTF are the odds? I'm so paranoid about sending the wrong email/text to the wrong one...:?

7 months now with this one.. planning on moving in together in October.. I can't see not asking her to marry me when the time is right, just don't plan on doing it this year. I want to live with her for a bit before I'm 100%.

I ended up deleting my profile and hoping that whole "when you aren't looking..." bizo might be true :roll:
I've recently dipped my toes into this whole thing recently.
Wow.
What a mindfuck.
Don't want to be a debbie downer,
but was not any positive happenings for me, personally.
The people I met were,
well,
completely crazy.
I'm a little scared to proceed any further,
it feels slightly like being " forced " .( if thats any sense )
So now , I'm feeling just to let natural occurences take their course.
Best of luck to everyone out there trying,
by however means you are resorting to .

you guys need to chill..."I met 2 people and it didn't work out" well, it's just like being set up by your friends...just the computer is picking your dates. Dating/meeting new people isn't a science, it's nature. You don't get along...so what..there are more people out there to meet!
If you're gonna go meet people from the internet, quit putting so much pressure on the date to 'make it work'. That just kills the mood and 'getting to know each other' phase.
I've put out personal ads...met around 40 people. Some were cool, some were not. Even crazy people want somebody to date...remember, there is probably another crazy person out there for every person that's too crazy for you.
After I quit trying to 'make it work out' I started having more fun meeting people...there was no pressure to 'get along', no pressure to 'force a relationship'. Just say, 'I'm looking for more people to hang out with, go to shows with etc' so both sides aren't so nervous. I met a lot of cool people, went to a lot of cool shows, had some good times with cool people...so what if I didn't like them enough to date them? I expanded my group of cool people to hang with.
I did meet crazy people, and I had no shame in pounding the beer I just ordered and telling them "Nice to meet you, I'm gonna go home"
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

I really like this girl. I get along better with her than I do my best friends, which is crazy. I finally found someone I feel really comfortable around. I don't see this ending any time..
Haven't told her I love her yet. That's the next step.. just waiting for the right time. Still feels early..
just dont forget my birthday.
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
I always thought you were a guy until I saw your new avatar
but my previous avatar had a pic of me too, did i look like a bloke in that one?
Never seen that avatar.
I like poetry and long walks on the beach at sunset.
