Yes its just that simple.
Pick, Click and Date.

rofl rofl rofl

It ain't that easy where I am at. Not so many active locals online near me. At least none that interest me.
But hey what do I know, I already found somebody here.

But the 'meet and greet' is the way to go on a first date if you can.
I had to drive over two hrs to meet the Lady I am seeing now, so we went to lunch and then other activities.
I wasn't going to drive two hrs for a cup of coffee.

wow, that's some crap...this is why I say only friends first. you talk a little while and when you meet, it's just a meeting and hanging out...not a date, that way when it's all over, you know whether you wanna go out with them on an actual date. don't spend your money on someone when you can go dutch; i wouldn't spend my money on some guy who possibly isn't deserving when i already have to spend my time.

Three important rules for breaking up
Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don't make a big production
Don't make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you've gone together for only a short time,
And haven't been too serious,
There's still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she prefers the company of others
To your exclusive company,
But if you're honest, and direct,
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you brake the news,
The boy will respect you for your frankness,
And honestly he'll appreciate the kind of straight forward manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby you will remain friends

I'm head of the class
'm popular
I'm a quarter back
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you like his article in the newspaper

I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I make football bets
I'm a teachers pet.

I purpose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think It will keep people more able to deal with weird situation
And get to know more people
I think if you're ready to go out with Johnny
Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit
He wont mind he'll appreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you've dated someone else you can date him again
I'm sure he'll like it
Everyone will appreciate it
You so novel what a good idea
You can keep you time to your self
You don't need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy, in the whole world could be yours
If you'll just listen to my plan

That's why you just do the "meet n'greet" for a drink or coffee... If it goes great you might want a alternate plan to do more but really that can be saved and build up anticipation... Do spend crazy money that isn't necessary.... jmo

I have yet to be on a date from a site. I am not sure this is the way to meet people, either. I would be scared to meet a freak and get caught up in something I can't get out of.

I would offer to pay my half, of course.

It can be scary. The very first person I met from a dating site turned out to be an arsonist. And I wasn't even on an arsonist dating site!

Alcohol would definitely help me relax, but I would need to maintain so my mind doesn't get cloudy and I do something stupid!

Why on Earth would someone say they are an arsonist on a first date (or any date for that matter)? Or did she try to catch you on fire??

She wanted me to go to a motel with her and some of her friends -- that part sounded sort of interesting -- until she told me they did this all the time, and liked to start fires in the rooms....

Uh, no thank you....!

I think it is easier online now a days if your looking for that but i also think its worse becuse alot of people lie so much online more than they do IRL so all I say about it is do it if you want to


i agree kinda hard to lie when they know some things about you1
