No it's been very difficult online to date off mingle.
I been fortunate to meet a few nice men that travel here for Nice dates! These men are seeking a date in person. You have to talk on phone for weeks to get to know a man, then he confirms his plans to travel. I usually go for mature older gentlemen to meet. |

It is nothing more than a different avenue

My experience has been that i have made friends and met a couple of people from the whole social media. Granted it is not quite as instant as walking up to a person in the grocery store and end up in a long conversation.

Not entirely sure it is, it appears somewhat shallow as the pic determines the response (says one without a photo), but I have been fortunate enough to engage in conversation with 2 absolutely lovely ladies.

Joe, I think social media is a great way to meet people you may never run into in daily life, but think many depend on it too much. I don’t know it’s healthy to stay in and chat with online friends over getting out and socializing face to face. We need physical presence a little more than constant conversation, IMO. Balance is key, as with anything.

I am now thinking is it right to make friends on social media Keep an open mind, and as in real life take your time in getting to know them before becoming friends, but you need to be aware of people online who are not who they say they are. They are scammers, people who befriend people on social media sites just to obtain money from them by spinning a hard luck story, you never, never, send money to someone you have only met online, and not in person. Welcome to Mingle2 and good luck in your search. |

Granted it is not quite as instant as walking up to a person in the grocery store and end up in a long conversation. So how often do you walk up to a person in the grocery store I wonder? How many friends have you made there, how many dates came from it? Not saying it isn't possible, but I think you'd have to be a really good conversationalist, good at 'opening lines' to get something going there. Most ppl are in a hurry and focused on getting out of the supermarket asap. |

I think, friends come by coincidence, and not, when you are looking for them ... which applies to social media and real life situations

Haha, I'm quite certain his profile came without profile piccie... I mean, the man must've been wise enough to know that looks wouldn't get him very far. |
