Have you met girls online?

33 replies
I have a guess. Never date with the girls you meet online. Because most of them are either hookers, have recent break up, are not pretty or are lesbian. Is it what you think?

    I really highly dout that. There is plenty of girls that are legitimate that do online dating. You just got to know where to look and meet up as well. I have never met any girls online, I rather go out and meet girls like that, but online dating is really big and i have no doubt that there are some very nice girls around

      There is a plethora of attractive girls that are online. Just check out theattractionforums & loveconnection (google them) and go to their "online game" info. I have had success using "hot or not" for hook ups and "plenty of fish" for relationships, which btw are both completely free..

    Hmm, I have to disagree. I think online dating has a lot of advantages. I can't say that I've dated girls online because a) I'm female and straight and b) do you need a b?

    I have used the Internet, namely Facebook to network with various people online. I did this both to make friends and to possibly find a date. The Internet allows you to pin point people that you share similarities with and I've made many terrific, real friends that I originally met online.

    I know quite a few people who have done online dating. Some have been very successful, but there's been plenty of horror stories too, heh. Just like anything else I guess.

      I decided to make a fake id on FB and was shocked to see 10s of request each day and 10s of comments on one post. My own id get not even 5% of that crap stuff. This makes me sure that if there's is a girl I might find interesting, must have been contacted and tired of 100's of requests before mine. Why would she reply to my request? Why do guys become so lame about girls?

        Maybe its time to go outside and meet real girls. Always better to see them face to face as if online, you will never be 100% sure that she is a real person or she is who she says she is.

    I used a dating site called e-harmony almost 2 years ago as it was more convenient for me + i don't like to go out in the conventional sense. Took a few months but finally met the right girl and have been with her since (about 1.5 years). It absolutely can work and I'd definitely recommend you at least give it a try.

    Best of luck

    I have. Sometimes it works out well, sometimes it doesn't, and you will generally have your beliefs confirmed, just like meeting people offline. One of the problems in this perspective of "looking for girls online" is that women (not "girls"... ) end up getting harassed when we just want to chill out in Runescape or talk to friends on Facebook. Think about ways you wouldn't mind another guy treating you and you'll have a pretty good idea how to treat girls online.

    They're always heavier than what they make themselves out to be online, that's what I've discovered.

      Yep, as with anything, there's good and bad results. Does seem that the online dating scene goes from one Extreme to the other though.

          I've dated 3 women that I met online. I can say my experiences have been more good than bad. I honestly think my online dating record is better that the luck I've had meeting face-to-face, lol. I've never even signed up to a dating site, I simply met them through Facebook, and before that, Myspace.

          Naturally, these ladies like to put pretty pictures of themselves up on their profiles, but I didn't find them any less attractive when I met them in person. There was one I actually found to be MORE attractive when we met face to face.

          One thing I found that they all had in common: They preferred not to let people know we met online. It just seemed to be somewhat of an awkward point for them.

          And maybe this has something to do with my better track record, but I always let them make the first advance. It may sound contrary to the way we're traditionally taught as men, but I see all of the hounding that pretty girls take from guys online, and I know it's go to get old for them. It really works better to play it cool and show that you're not just another hornball looking for the quickest way into her pants.

          There's plenty of wonderful women to meet online, and I'd say patients is the key to finding them.

    I've never met a woman online so I'm not sure what kind of people you would encounter. When I was single I was socializing so much that meeting women was never a problem and I have been in a relationship for a long time so it's no longer an issue.

    I do think that keeping an open mind about the woman you are likely to meet would help though, and I do know enough about woman that if you describe them in the terms you used in opening post you may hinder your chances more than a little.

      I haven't dated online but really?! Your assumption is kind of rude.

      Because most of them are either hookers, have recent break up, are not pretty or are lesbian
      Which one are you for thinking about dating girls online?

    That's perhaps a bit....harsh?

    Theres a vast plethora of people who use the Internet nowadays and dating sites / chat rooms certainly aren't as tabooed as they once were.

    They definately aren't limited to encompassing those kind of people and you need to ask yourself why all those people should be deemed as bad?

    What's wrong with someone who's had a recent breakup? It might be classed as a "rebound seeker" but don't you look for another when you break up with someone?

      There are plenty of them out there just need to spend time getting to know them. Online dating is really a thing of the future now so meeting nice girls online is very possible.

      I have friends who have met their significant others online and are still extremely happy with their choices.

      Online dating is really not that different from the offline world in terms of the people you come across. Sure you can find women in the categories that you listed, but you will also find a vast amount of women that you would be highly compatible with.

      It sounds to me like your mindset and views on women may be your biggest barrier.

    I love meeting real humans, the ones I can see with my two eyes. If the girls you meet physically still lie about their ages and things like that, what about the girl you meet online who might just be a teenage boy trying to flirt online. Ha ha ha! for me no way!

    If you meet online then at least try meeting the person just to be sure they are "Real"

    Yeah I done it before. Pretty easy to see which girls are real or not.

    E.g. If her Facebook has like 10 friends then yeah she's probably fake.

    Totally disagree with OP post. My now wife of 3.5 years, is a wonderful woman I met online almost 5 years ago. And we lived in distant states when we chatted online. We had NO intentions of pushing things further as we lived 6 hours apart. But, funny how God works, and we wound up meeting (I drove to visit her), clicked incredibly well, had so much in common, and enjoyed each other beyond words. I clicked with her more than any woman I ever met and dated here on the local scene versus online. So no, a hooker or ugly chick or lesbian my wife was not.

    Online dating is possible, and does work, but just like with anyone you meet at a bar or through a friend, you have to have an open mind, and monitor their actions and habits and thinking to what you're looking for. Just my thoughts. I've seen more friends burnt by bad relationships that a friend hooked them up with, than those that ventured out to dating sites or social networking sites. Just my 2 cents.

    My bestfriend met her husband online..they've been married for 5 yrs now, together for about 12! They met a long time ago, back in the AOL chatroom days lol

    I've never tried to meet anyone online, but I would probably go with a site like Eharmony or Match.com..I don't know, i'm not too interested in online dating right now.

      I tried eHarmony Deidra, but unless they've changed things up a bit, the ability to not be able to see the person at all didn't work for me. I know you match on a more deep and personal level, but there also has to be some knowledge of physical as well... after all, there has to be an attraction too. Match didn't work for me, but I did make a good friend out of it. Actually met my wife via Myspace (back when it was doing better than it is now). lol

    Not all girls you meet online are hookers, have recent break up, are not pretty or are lesbian as what you've said. There are also descent girls who take chances about dating online. Don't be judge-mental, just be careful and patient enough to really get to know the person first.

    So you are saying that about woman online. But what about men online? We could go with -

    Pedophiles
    Rapists
    Fat
    etc.

    Does that mean all of them are???
