It depends on the person. Some people can find love over the internet, and some can't. I did, and so did my sister.

Really?
im happy to know that ,,
thank you

I've heard a lot of stories but I've been trying to do this online dating thing for more than 20 years and I've never gotten a single date from any of the more than 15 sites I've been on.

Online is good for a chat but I'm a face to face person myself don't do online dating.

I see nothing bad in it, i mean its an avenue used this time around in meeting new people, showing how much you care, despite the distance.

it depends on the person him/her self, sometimes one of the most wonderful friends you meet them randomly on the net, and sometimes you meet the worst ppl ever you know in your life, I thing the internet community just like the supermarket where you can match what you need, most of who are looking for new friends on the net, because they have been disappointed from those who they knew them in daily life ... may be I'm right, or I could be mistaken, it all depends on how we see the life, from which angle !

I believe that the internet can be a stepping stone.

I can say I do not love the internet.......

When you are doing on line dating, you are actually supposed to meet in person at some point to date. You can't just write to someone for years. I've been on a few dates. I was the one who made all the plans. I'm not doing that again.

hi will love to know you

I agree you have to meet at one point, I emailed someone on here a lot, we had a good connection and got aling great, I couldn't meet with her any time soon(I was on deployment)

but when I got off deployment we did meet, and although it didn't ultimately work out to be 'ever after' it showed that yes it is possible to meet people and date online.

So yes OP it is possible to find love online, but probably not going to be 'ever after' with the first person you have a connection with...but don't let that stop you from trying again.

yes I do how are u doing

do u need a man

ladys who need a good man with full of love ❤

Yes

I believe you can find someone that you like on the internet. But the "love" part of it, Well, That is different. It may come. But it may not.

It has been my experience that most people don't really know who they are.
Not only do they not know themselves, they don't know what they want.

I once gave a date EXACTLY what they asked for. It was a disaster.
Meither of us developed a personal bond with the other.

So, I ask, Who are you...really?

You've been doing this for 20 years? And you are still here on a dating site? I think I would have hung it up long ago. Me, I write no one here. I hang out here for the forums. I've been on two other sites for a while now. I get dates. That's not my problem. My problem is the quality of the women on these sites. It seems to me that a lot of dating sites attract the trash of the world. The weird & the goofy. The nutty & the high-minded. Women with unruly kids. Or kids that stay in trouble all the time. Or grown kids that refuse to leave, Or want to stay under their mom's backside all the time. And last, but not least, the women that are not who they say they are in their profiles. They don't even know themselves.

And that's just a little of what I've run into. And that doesn't include my little stint as a "problem solver" on a dating site. I haven't written anyone in two or three months now. I need a rest from the asylum.

Been on a few dates from datehookup that resulted in much the same scenario.
That's why I am listed as 'Seeking Friendships" and nothing else. Still there is very few contacts.

I'm kinda stuck. Stuck with lowering my standard or throwing them away. Not about to throw them away...

I have come to realize through several years and many different sites that it is not possible to fall in love on the net.

For me there has to be face to face interaction. You can say anything and shade yourself to appear more like you think they want you to be.

I think the internet can be useful to learn about someone, build a friendship, and even to share some moments in life together.

That does not replace someone actually being there when you need a shoulder and support when needed.

At lease for me love is not possible when you cannot involve all of your senses at the same time, and that can only be done when you are physically in contact with each other.
