what do you mean by "sense of perception"? I'm not going to lie.. I am a tad vain and the thought of putting on lippy and fixing my hair just to stay at home and video msg someone doesn't appeal 
Hahaah I'm with you on this one and will ot do the cam thing...... I know...You would treat it like a proper date but you woulsn't be leaving the house

I have met several Minglers on here in person and ont once was I ever dissapointed!! Only 2 were in a romantic way and it didnt go to far but it was still a joy to meet them!!! How long did you spend chatting to the two romantic meets? Did you stay in contact with them afterward? |

What IU mean by sense perception? I can see their facial expressions, hear the tones of their voice, how they react to questions and situations and so forth and if they take car of themselves in appearance...just like if they were standing in front of me. The only thing you cant do(and I don't mean this in a funny way)is know what they smell like. As for fixing up just to video with them, it's just as if you would do when you go on a date, however, as you get comfortable with one another, the fixing up seems less and less important. My personal preference is to see someone in their nature state anyway....just the way God made them. |

No worries. Don't think it's just you or your comp...I don't know why I can no longer delete the chain of quotes without my msg getting surrounded in purple
You have to remember to remove the unnecessary quote tags as well.

LOL I totally agree here. By the time I put a pretty face on, fix the do and put on a nice shirt, I am getting the heck out of the house. Seems a lot of effort to walk 10 paces to the computer. LOL |

Not living my life across a computer screen. Or out of a mail box.
Yea great get the basics and then get to the face to face or forget it. Life is too short to live in a fantasy that can blow up in your face when reality lands. I feel sorry for people who are really lonely but I don't have the energy to deal with and attention whore whore who only wants to pretend. |

... a face to face meeting? More often than not, I've gotten to know someone fantastically well via online/text/phone convo's but when we’ve met in person, not an iota of chemistry. I’m as much to blame for not wanting to remain in contact after realising that we're not compatible. It’s one of the reasons why I prefer to meet quite soon after having exchanged a few ‘you don’t sound like an axe murderer’ emails/phone calls – I know...I know – can do without the “how can you tell he’s not an axe murderer” responses – irony people!!
I was reading one of the threads and someone mentioned preferring to get to know on Mingle first before meeting them. The response seemed to indicate months as opposed to weeks...It got me thinking...maybe it’s me and my womanly sensitivity.. but how do others deal with it? Weeks/months of getting to know someone, then after one date, nothing? well honestly, the dates I have had IRL have not been forum friends, and I think part of the problem is that I did not take enough time to get to know them so there was no "connection" before we met - just a few emails exchanged - to me it is kind of ironic that the people I have got to know the best are the ones who live further away (usually) due to exchanges in the forums. so I think we would stay friends even after we met - even if a romantic relationship did not develop - because we started basically as freinds first where my IRL meets did not have that "freinds first " element now I have a different problem of hesitating to relate romantically because I don;t want to ruin the friendship if the romance doesn't work out...good grief Even if someone lived quite a distance from me, I would still want to meet them sooner rather than later. yeah...the 'not wanting to ruin a friendship' is a different kettle of fish altogether
sorry didn't mean to divert from the topic - but yes - I would want to meet eventually too...but not unless there is a reason... |

Can you see a man glamming up to sit in front of a computer screen? It just wouldn't happen, would it? But you're right..If I am making the effort to do hair, make up, clothes etc..I'm not going to waste it sitting in front of my laptop. gotta read through before I send LOL |

Unfortunately, on these kind of sites, there are always going to be people who pretend. That's why if I'm talking to someone local, I'd rather meet sooner than later as well. Fortunately, those that I took longer to meet because of distance, turned out to be completely like I thought they would be. |

I believe if you meet with the intention of keeping a friend, it may be less disappointing if that friend does not end up wanting romance in the end.

I think it's more likely that female friends who form online friendships are more likely to stay in contact when they meet face to face. |
