  • I've learned not to take these serious. When I first tried these I was hoping to find a pretty cool chick and just ended up meeting crazies, one of them talked to spirits and claimed the world had already ended and we are all living in the past. She is my favorite crazy so far. A lot of single moms ashamed of their kids it seems. I think by the 3rd date at the latest a mention of kids should come up. Met one with 7 kids and never let on that she had any, only found out cause my friend found her Facebook. Actually met a PJ fan but she was a bit of a loon too, that was disappointing.

    Talking to a guy at work that used dating sites it seems I have quite the knack for finding the crazies, he seems to do much better than me. Usually finds a girl after only meeting a few. Me on the other hand, Ive told friends about some of my dates and got responses like you can't seriously want to see her again, you might end up in garbage bags.

    It is very much a weeding out process, don't expect much and maybe something good will happen.

    I'm trying online dating again. The last time was 12 years ago, and I was really sad nothing came of it. This time the apps make the process easier. I'm curious and cautious. If something good happens I'll be happy, if nothing happens my life won't change.

    Good luck.  I have been trying to figure that online dating.

    I think I would not do that. Or maybe more I can't imagine to do that. I would feel like I would sell myself..!? 

    But good luck. Hope you'll find a wonderful person! :)

    Sometimes these app things are intuitive, and sometimes they aren't intuitive. I think I'll understand this one online dating app if I pay a fee. The fee may be worth it as this one app includes more people who live near me.

    Nope. Haven't tried. I came close but. Created an account but couldn't find the will to upload a photo and type a bit about me.

    I tried it, went nowhere. Even now I go on it from time to time, send some messages to guys I like the look of, safe in the knowledge that none of them will ever answer :P That way I can at least tell myself I made an effort!
