I am currently right now. It’s the only time and don't have a lack of success with the 'old fashioned way' but felt this one was different.
When I was like 14 I was quite the net-nerd with chat rooms, now I’ve upgraded to forums it seems. Well I chatted with a girl who lives about 4 hours away from my place from age 14 through 17, then from 17 through 19 not so much because she had a bf for nearly two years. Anyways I saw her enter the messenger for the first time in two years so decided to get an update, and a new picture. She looked AMAZING, so invited her to OSU vs. NW game and we have been dating since that day. I think it works because now she lives only 30 minutes away, we never chatted with the intention of dating, I think its weird when you use the internet simply to look for a date but if something weird comes along then no reason to turn it down.
Not to mention her dad is a contractor, mom a RN, and uncle is Dennis Farina and she doesn't seem to mind me being poor and pays for everything, including surprising me with a gift of a 400 dollar down payment to EBGames so that my Xbox 360 and a game are already preordered. So, after this whole experience I won't knock it.
The problem with people that are willing to date on an online dating service is, as opposed to a bar she has to keep her eye off of 20 guy and you're likely there with her, with the internet your competition is 200,000 guys who don't know or care about you and it can be done secretly, if you're crazy enough to use a dating service you're also crazy enough to drop your current bf for an upgrade in a second.
Also; I am ashamed of course of how we know each other to a degree so both of us have made up false stories as to our meeting, I think by now no guy would care and would think that I was crazy to not be with her, but that first month.... I would have NEVER heard the end of it.
