I'm here to meet a nice guy in my area who we could one day become good friends and from that hopefully something deeper like a relationship and or even marriage.
Not to mention, myself personally, I think it's alot safer to chat via internet than in person in which a stranger could physically do you harm if they are a very violent person. And I'm well aware that you can't hide yourself from every stranger but this site as well as other sites help you to not be subjected to a whole lot of strangers too.
