you think actually meet their other half on dating sites? well maybe after 5 years you may find them.

Online Dating Magazine estimates that more than 20 million people visit at least one online dating service a month. - Online Dating Magazine estimates that there are more than 120,000 marriages a year that occur as a result of online dating. There's a magazine? This says nothing about people meeting their 'other half'; but still interesting.

you think actually meet their other half on dating sites? well maybe after 5 years you may find them. Probably a negative number actually -- Let's see, I've met nine from dating sites, eight of them were absolute catastrophes, so I'm at -7 already. I've come to the realization that the kind of person I'm looking for just doesn't use dating sites -- and I've been dabbling on these things on and off for over 10 years now....

Depends on whom is storytelling. Look here--> http://www.switched.com/2007/11/05/five-things-to-avoid-when-dating-online/ and it says that 40% of American singles are finding their match online. (You do not believe it, and I don't either)

While everyone is busy looking at that addy, I can say that a linked site to that one shows that people whom met via dating sites often (37%) have sex on the first date. That's one of three first dates = sex. It doesn't say how many first timer's went on to become long term relationships.

I met mine on here. She messaged me and we have soared from there. She even proposed to me. I guess I'm in that percent whatever it is. People try and don't give up, then it comes when you least expect it. Took me a year and a half, but it was well worth the wait.

I know 20 couples that found the love of their lives on online dating sites.

I know of at least 30 couples who have met and married from meeting online, a 100 people that have at least dated someone that they met online. This is part of the reason that I have decided to give it a shot.
