bwilling 0 #5 June 10, 2003 When I was younger, I met all my girlfriends at the DZ (including my now ex-wife!)... but now that I'm much older, that no longer seems to work... Wendy, I can't believe that a smart, attractive women such as yourself could ever be desperate, but if the use of online dating services is a sign of desperation, then sign me up as deperate too... because I have also used them. My experiences have been mostly positive, but I've not yet met any women that could hold a piece of popcorn in each dimple... or that wrote entirely using the first person as their dog...

katiebear21 0 #8 June 10, 2003 My Dad met his new wife online... kind of weirded me out at first but he seems to be happy. I guess it's kind of like the forums where you get to know somebody really well online. Sometimes - as we all know though - people aren't exactly like they front online! Good luck Wendy and keep us posted. I'm sure you'll have some interesting stories to share!!! PS - I'd stay away from popcorn cheek dude!

riddler 0 #13 June 10, 2003 QuoteSo -- anyone else done any computer dating? So, I'm a little confused. Why use a dating service when you have the dropzone? If I was a cute skychick, I would take full advantage of the male/female ratio. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #14 June 10, 2003 QuoteSo -- anyone else done any computer dating? I know 6 people who have done this. It depends on your expectations. One guy wanted a relationship and had no luck (but I don't know what that means). One guy said that he was just dating for fun. He felt that online dating encouraged what he called "serial dating", going out with 3 girls a week. Date each one 4 times and move on to the new posters. One girl just selected hers by their salary range. I think most figured her out from her line of questioning. You could just go out and have fun. See some movies, have some dinners. You can meet people with similar interests and, at a minimum, make some friends. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,452 #15 June 10, 2003 Actually, I've done it before; I'm mostly postwhoring I guess, and wondering a little if others have the same impressions I do. It's been OK -- I certainly haven't found anyone awesome, but it beats nothing. And at least I'm pretty sure a guy can put together a complete and fairly coherent sentence before I go out with him .

So -- anyone else done any computer dating? Wendy W. Wendy and others... It kind of helps to see who youre talking to, try this in your area... http://www.pre-dating.com Going to one of those tomorrow after work, went to the last one and it was pretty cool and straighforward. You go from table to table 11 times, sit down and just talk with someone for 6 minutes, if there is mutual interest (you put thier name down as a match and turn it in) then they exchange your contact info both ways, otherwise youll never see that person again. This works pretty well for me, its real straightforward, very low cost ($29), no internet weirdo crap or another scam or having to talk to someone over loud music in a club. Check it out.

dove 0 #18 June 10, 2003 I saw a guy on David Letterman's stupid human tricks who could put an entire penny into his nostril using his tongue. I think I'd pick the popcorn dude over that any day! Me? My trick is I have no gag reflex. Can't really demo that one on tv - maybe on late night cable. Good luck chicky. But I'll bet HE will find you soon. Fate has a funny way of taking care of things. Just takes a long time sometimes. From one frustrated chicky to another - buy lotsa batteries and it makes the time pass quicker. Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
