I have heard too many horror stories of some of the freaks, stalkers, rapists, etc out there. I also personally knew someone who was murdered and they suspected an internet date as the killer. :-( posted by: Dariana (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (1:50 am) Wanted to add this too, I know several people who say once they actually met his/her date, they were NOTHING like the photo they had posted and didn't even have the lifestyle they claimed to have. Its too easy for people to lie on the net. A lot of young girls and guys out there aren't even old enough to be dating yet they post some adults photo and chat back and forth. Hmmm, and they wonder why so many get into so much trouble. I prefer the old-fashioned face to face dating. But, if it works for you, thats great. Just please be cautious. posted by: GottaLuvMe830 (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (4:38 am) I have met a few people on the net! Nothing lasting but they were nice guys. NO psychos or stalkers thank god! BUT it takes me a LONG time to want to meet them and even a few weeks till i even talk to them on the phone. It takes patience on their part but if they ever want to meet me then that is how its gonna be. I have kids so I have to make sure mommy will be safe. I dont go out to bars cuz of me having kids....lack of babysitter so pretty much any talking to guys I do on here ****sigh**** 31 yrs old and I feel like a hermit! LOLOL posted by: JT (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (9:41 am) Hey Mulder! I met my husband on IRC in 1985. He lived in Philadelphia, and I in Chicago. After a few weeks of IRC and phone chatting, he flew to Chicago to meet me in person, and within one year, we were married. We now have two children. Were we online to meet someone? He admits he had hoped to, but I was just chatting to have fun. It was a total fluke -- I saw someone speaking Hebrew (phonetically in English) and we struck up a conversation. It was all a joke to begin with -- we were both single, straight, and Jewish. The next thing you know, we're signing a Ketubah! I guess it just goes to show you never know where you'll meet someone. I think it's great that you are willing to at least try. Best of luck to you! posted by: AcidRainbow (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (10:06 am) Nope,Never posted by: Snickerdoodle (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (10:59 am) i've never tried that.. but i have met someone online before. heh I dunno if i could ever do one of those sites.. its hard to tell if someones lying or something. i'm way too trusting of people. best of luck to u though~ posted by: AustenNight (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (11:06 am) hmm, will never try it, i'd rather die single ^_^ hey, what about that eharmony site, they advertise like crazy on tv. i dont think these so called blind dates arranged online are safe. posted by: theseeker (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (11:40 am) Like you, I'm also doubtful about meeting a good date from these dating sites. I must say I've never tried them. I hope I would never have to, I'm married :) posted by: Anastacia (reply) post date: 12.28.04 (11:30 pm) Im not single, but if I were i think i would stcik to meetign people in real life, at bars and parties and stuff! Good luck which ever way you go! posted by: yadig (reply) post date: 01.02.05 (4:04 am) Yeah go for it... the "real" world and the internet world are more and more integrated with each passing moment-- the whole concept is inevitably going to become a moot point...or just a given-- kinda like TV being in color and movies having sound... cant really stop it... but for real, 90 percent of people suck online or offline... but then again I have a knack for cynicism and exageratted jadedness (if thats not a real word-- it is now) the state of being jaded... posted by: yadig (reply) post date: 01.02.05 (4:05 am) here's my favorite part of this post... "Basically I'm enrolled to all the hebrew speaking dating sites, and also to some of the international ones. I mostly prefer the non-paying ones of course.. " lol i cant believe you threw that in there. nice. posted by: mulder (reply) post date: 01.02.05 (5:37 am) Reply to: yadig well, since all of those sites are basically cut of the same cloth, why should I pay if I get the same or better quality for free? :) posted by: yadig (reply) post date: 01.02.05 (8:13 am) Reply to: mulder well hell no-- go for the free sheeit, man. I was just laughing about irony... ya know the thought of a man trying to be as "frugal" as possible when choosing between different Jewish dating services. Just struck me funny. lol. what can I say. i just call things as I see 'em. But either way the reason your sending out tons of messages to chicks and not getting many responses is going to havew a lot to do with the fact that the deck is stacked WAY against you man... girls sign on those things and they just get bombed with guys trying to get them to reply.... they have their pick of just tons and tons of incoming messages.... gotta find yourself an "in" man...need something to set yourself apart. ORRR chicks just dont dig you. you may be horribly ugly and disfigured in which case your best option is pretend to be a rock star... anyone else need dating advice? hah lol... just wait til my new series of true "Ken Yadig's True Life Stories" posts start coming out... hrmm-- probably gonna start leaking a few out after this weeks big "halfway-there" courtroom drama extravaganzas... coming soon to a blog near you. |
