Online dating!

It's easy, but that's why an online "relationship" really can't prepare you for how things are going to be in the flesh with your person.

Yeah, that's what I said.

I'm of the "think it's a stupid idea no matter what" camp, I was just also admitting the fact that online relationships (of any kind) are comfortable and have the ability to be open and honest, like Abdula said. But, again, in the end I think it's retarded.

I remember having an online girlfriend when I was 12. After my dad caught me looking at teh pr0nz, I got banned from the internet for like, four months. Ironically, I'd forgotten about this online girlfriend but the feeling wasn't mutual I guess...

My dad searched through my emails while I wasn't allowed to use the computer and apparently she sent me a ton of love emails or something. That's the last time I ever tried to have an online girlfriend.

As for my opinion on it, I honestly don't know. I lean more towards the fact that it's pointless and stupid, though, because on the internet you can be whoever you want to be. However, I'm also for it in a sense... because it makes people happy, and so goes the saying "whatever floats your boat." The only case of someone I knew in real life having an online girlfriend was an old buddy of mine, who's friggin' weird to begin with, but I guess she made him happy and -- constant jokes behind his back aside -- I didn't see a problem with it.

Oh, and I think dating sites are no different from having someone put you on a blind date. As long as it's face-to-face, who cares about the means of meeting one another?

Well that's the funniest thing I've read all week, and that's saying a lot since I am extremely easily amused. I think I have a stomach ulcer.. anyway, I agree with everything he said.

Ehh....are you talking about dating people online, or meeting people online?
Cause those are different.
