Internet dating advice from girls needed? When I make contact with single girls on line they seem to be happy to e-mail a couple of times, some will seem happy to converse some get a bit flirty but not overly, some seem interested, but then suddenly it stops. This isn't just one occasion it's pretty much all the time, so girls what makes you decide to stop e-mailing someone even just to say, thanks for the contact but I'm not interested in you good luck

need internet dating advice? i just found out my sister is going to get married to this man she met on the net. They have been dating for 8 months now, and she says she's sure he's the one but i am worried he will turn out to be a liar and hurt her again (she's been divorced twice, both times was cheated on). she says he's wonderful, sweet, considerate and leaves her room to breathe. I say he's doing it because he's not with her, and i worry that when he marries her he will let his true color shine through. They've only seen each other once before and they are getting married now, help!!! he lives in alaska and we live in texas, so yes it is a long distance relationship. She seems to have lost all common sense since he promised her he'd never cheat and yes, i have tried talking to her but she'll avoid the subject. The wedding will take place in november and he might as well be one of those pervs who are glued to the net 24/7 and don't have a life!!!

Internet dating- first date advice and safety concerns? Tommorrow is my first date at Macaroni grill for lunch with a guy I met online via yahoo.personals. I have never done online dating and this is my first time to meet a person that I talked to online. I have only briefly talked to this guy and am scared to meet him. he claims he is a 36 year old pastor but I am worried that he is not a pastor. the thing is a friend of mine met someone online and was murdered. the person he thought he had been talking to turned out to be male rather than female and murdered him. I am so scared about meeting this pastor tommorrow. I keep thinking that perhaps he is a nice normal person who just wants to meet a nice girl. how can i make sure I am safe? What can I talk to him about? How can I find out what his real name is (not sure if chris is his real name) and what he really does for a living and if he has ever been married before without offending him? Please help me. Thanks for the advice. The guy was so weird. He made a report card DURING the date and graded me on my appearance and personality. He also asked weird questions like "why should I date you?". that was my first and last internet dating experience. He was a weirdo.

Need advice on internet dating? I am wondering what do I do when I contact some one and they send me a picture and they are not physically attractive to me? Most people (I think?) just stop talking to them. I know that this seems rude? But that is the norm? Or? It seems just as rude as sending an email that says "no thanks"? Or?

Advice on Internet Dating: Just wondering what the best website was? I've tried Eharmony---too pricey....and I've also tried some ethnic (Indian) dating websites...I realize that I'm too American for these women...any advice?...I'm 25 and want to settle down within two years....

Gentlemanly advice needed -- Internet dating -- for over 40? This is funny, and borderline pathetic/tragic. I've been divorced for 10 years and haven't dated since because the severity of the breakup scared me out of it for a long time. I also became Christian over that time, which caused a lot of changes. I've decided that it's 'time' to step out there again, and I feel like I'm in high school again. (Can I tell you how badly this SUCKS???) I am 41, and plus size -- VERY curvy, and too much gut, unfortunately. A friend posted my photo to 'Hot, Cute, or OK" on Facebook and I got a 91% hot rating -- at 41!!! Woop!! On top of that my libido is over the top. Frankly, I miss it a LOT. Next layer: I'm Christian and am firm on dating God's way... not being promiscuous. Furthermore, I'm all my son has, and I need to be safe for his benefit/security. Honestly.. How do I tastefully get across that I am wanting to be very sexually active with my mate and want one with a high libido, but am not going to be giving out 'free samples'? (after all.. I'm not Chick Fil-A..) As soon as I mention sex, every creep on the internet wants to have chat sex. So how do I get it across without sounding like predator bait and run a chance at attracting a suitable mate??

Internet dating questions, need advice? I recently joined an internet dating sight and have been in contact with a girl. She is cute and so far I like her. We have talked in e-mails, IM, and also on the phone within the first two weeks. The last time I talked to her on the phone it went really well and she said she would IM me later that night. So later we had a brief conversation and I asked her if she would like to meet for coffee, she said not on Sat but maybe on Sunday. Then I called her on Sat night and I don’t know but she might have hung up on me and then I sent her an e-mail and she said she was sorry she was not gong to make it but that we would talk later. My question is when would be the appropriate time to contact her? I don’t want to look desperate so I don’t want to contact her too soon but if she is genuinely interested I don’t want her to think that I am not. I was thinking of an e-mail this Friday, do you think that is too soon, too late, or just right?

What advice would you give for internet dating? Please give me as many tips as you can think of. Thanks

Internet Dating? I'm 35, single and live in a small town where it is really hard to meet any suitable women. (Supermarkets - ha!) One of my freinds suggested internet dating. I'm not sure about this - I need to do something to meet more women but I'm a bit coy about putting myself in the "shop window" -so to speak - of an internet dating service. I would much prefer to meet people face to face in a real setting but this does not seem to be happening. So, should I give it a go? I don't believe there is really any stigma about this but most of my freinds have been able to meet their partners in more traditional settings. Your comments, experineces and advice would be welcome.

What do you think of the advice on those dating websites? I have been looking around on the internet and there are alot of dating advice websites for men..(if any of you have something for a woman let me know cause i want to see it if it exists) I am divided on weather or not the advice that is given is actually good or simply good in theory.

My questions concerns internet dating, which are best, what are the cost, advice? I am a man who would like to meet some nice ladies. I am not looking for marriage or a very serious relationship. I am flexible, just chatting, a date or two fine. Have gotten e-mails from several companies that seemed interesting. Incidentally, Yahoo Personals did not work well for me. The three companies that have offered free services are Mate 1, Engage, and Meet Big Beautiful Singles in Your Area (I like larger women). What would there be to lose to fill out a form for a trial. I am looking for low costs. Would be grateful for any thoughts, suggestions, and experience on this matter.

where on the internet can I find legitimate dating advice?

What is your personal opinion on Internet dating? What about asking people on this website for advice....? On ridiculous things such as "I am hurt and stuck in...." or "Should I get married"? I don't condone either one...

Does internet dating ever work for anyone? I have been cyber dating this guy since November. I'm married but on the verge of divorce. I feel I've fallen in love the the other man, he lives far away but wants us to be together. I'm confused cause not sure if it's legit. Although he's understanding and giving me my space to figure out what to do in my marriage. Any sound advice...cause I'm confused.

Advice please!! I recently met a guy through an internet dating agency...? we clicked quite quickly and met up. Got on great and have been emailing & texting constantly since. He told me he is separated and doesnt want a one on one relationship just now, but would like us casually see each other i.e. we both have the option to see others if we wish, and in time if we really click then our relationship would become more. I met him again 2 weeks ago and we spent the evening looking into each others eyes - he told me that he felt a deep connection between us. The thing that worries me is that on the 2 occasions we met up, we met somewhere over an hour away from where we both live (I live 20 mins from him)...We had planned to meet last nite but when I suggested we meet near where he lives he went quiet and suggested we meet up next week instead. We have never spoken on the phone, and I am worried that he is either A) Still married or B) has a girlfriend. If he did really fancy me he would want us to meet up anywhere would he? Am I being taken for a fool? Help!!

Now,he says this weeks he is coming down here to see me. I was so excited,but now that its' actually happened I am starting to feel a little nervous...any advice?

Internet Relationship Advice? I have recently found myslef in a simi-dating realtionship with someone I met online. I am a very careful person. He doesn't know any personal information. I know these usually don't work out and it's a really silly idea. But I was wondering if anyone had any good advice for me? To dos not to dos. I am already aware of the need to have privicy and safety and about the precautions to take. But any general advice would be great. Thanks. cosaxteacher - I share bits of my life just not my DOB, my address and that such. I don't think it's a fantasy, just that I am wise and careful. Yes- I know not to meet in person alone and in a private place. That would just be stupid. I've already checked the criminal and sex offender database there in his city. Checks out clean. Not married (to my best guess which isn't worth peanuts) becase he can talk at night - all night, the weekends and holidays.

Has anyone ever used Internet dating and is it good or bad? I want to use it,so what experiences have people had/people you know had what good sites are there. Ive created a yahoo account solely to ask this btw as my friends werent great for advice on this.cheers for any help.

What do you do if your parent does not approve of you internet dating? I'm in a living situation with my mom who is disabled. She is divorced and I am single, never married. Until one of us has a life change we live together because we enjoy one another and I help her. I am intelligent, cute, outgoing, fun and have many great qualities, no trouble getting men interested in me. Problem is that my mom is extremely conservative about men & women- she doesn't think that two people who make a date from the internet should even meet for drinks together (b/c that's drinking with a stranger, very bad according to her). It seems like drinks is the common way people first meet up from the internet--you know who forbid me meeting for dinner with someone (a stranger)- In her book that equals major romance- well not in today's world and she doesn't get it that it dinner is a common first date! She says that she won't live with someone who does internet dating. I'm stuck, because if I do it, it will bring an all out war and she will cut me out of her life. Advice ?

What kind of advice should I give my shy friend concerning dating? She's been single for 3 years, had two very insignificant b/fs in high school that didn't even last a month. The problem? She's so shy. And when there is a guy she likes, she's either met him off the Internet or is so nervous with him in person that she finds it hard to say a word to him. I want to help her be happy. What kind of advice should I give her to help her date? Are there places I should take her .... she's 20, btw, so bars and things are probablty out of the question (she probably wouldn't go to those anyway). I have no idea what to say because I've never been shy and I have no trouble getting dates. She's extremely nice and everyone likes her and such but usually the guys she likes ends up just leading her on or do something stupid. She's now wanting to find Christian guys but I have no clue on where she should go (church is not an option because she works at a church on Sundays) Any ideas?

Should I try one of these internet dating sites? Which one? I am 30 and newly single after being married for 8 years to a high-school sweet heart. Wife cheated too many times while I was at work. I am 30 and nervous, seeking some advice.

I need some advice-how do I get back into dating after a long marriage? Not looking for just physical thing!? I have tried internet dating site and got lots of replies but most either just disappear, never talk back when I reply--even something as simple as How are you? What do you like to do in your free time? What kinds of food do you like? etc. If they don't disappear, they come on very strong, want to meet right away and are very concerned with physical needs, shall we say? Aren't there any men who really want a relationship not just a quick physical thing? I am 48, by the way but most people say I look younger, around late 30's or early 40s(not bragging just really is what people say). I tend to attract (on the internet anyway) younger men (30's) or much older (65 & up)--very few from 45 to 50. I am not a clingy needy person, pretty independent, but do expect to be treated like a person not just body parts! Where I live, it seems women a lot uglier and meaner (b*-mean, if you know what I mean)seem to have no trouble getting bfs and hubbies (usually they meet at bars though) What gives? The only bars/clubs around where I live are pick up places, with shootings, etc. Only 1 decent bar but mainly college kids. No movie theatre, no clubs or organizations except Jr. League and country club--not in my price level, not my society level. 1 tiny tiny mall. Can't afford to drive too far to find somewhere to go (closest place at least 50 miles away) I also work at a very tiny family business--no chance of dating co-workers. Plus, I have been divorced for a while now--didn't date for a long time, but really feel ready now (several years since divorce). I get looks at Walmart and grocery stores, but when I talk to them, it seems a woman comes around the corner and makes sure I know they're a couple. There isn't anywhere else to go around here--I am not the only one that say this--the 20 somethings have a hard time finding a date--not a hard time finding a one-night stand, but hard to get real dates from what I have heard (all ages)

Have you ever tried internet dating? i tried it once...i typed in that i was looking for a partner who is small and cute,and who likes water sports and into group activities. The website came up with this advice for me....'Marry a Penguin'

does internet dating work? i mean chat and matrimony sites, are they real? i met a guy on an indian matramonial site, we seem to be hitting it off and he seems to be very honest and careing. we will meet in a week and see if we are compatable in real life not just from web and phone conversations. only problem is we live very far apart and one of us have to relocate. we both have good job so its hard to ask some one to scarafice his career but on the other hand i feel like i dont want to either. any advice would be greatly apreciated on this matter. you can also email me at cnderellah@yahoo.com if you dont feel comfortable to reply out in the open. tahnks and have a good day

is this true, about internet dating? i met this girl on the net some 3 weeks ago, and we seem to click on just about everything, she's sent pics, i have too. She's good looking, sweet, BUT she wants to meet me in person, and the ticket to where she lives is way too expensive, how can i tell her to just chill for a few months, after we're sure the meeting's a good idea, without offending her? Seems that my outspokeness is met as arrogance by women, so please, advice.

Questions on internet dating? What are the best sites? You know the ones that actually work? Also, is there a way to avoid the same people over and over again? The last time I did net dating (about 2 years ago) I started to notice it was the same people over and over again. Is there a way to avoid this? Do the good ones get "scooped up" quick? If so are there specific ways to be the "scooper"? lol! Also, any advice on writing a good profile? I just broke up with my gf and I am wondering it net dating still works?

I need some advice on a relationship that started on the internet.? Ok, I met a guy on the internet, he lives 8 hrs from me, I talk to him everyday, we have been talking for over a month. He says he loves me and wants to be with me. I have tried to catch him up in a lie, but have found nothing yet to disprove him. I really like him, and He want to meet me. Do you think this is a good idea?? Im kinda nervous, about the whole internet dating thing, you know everyone has bad stories as to why you shouldn't. Any advice for me???

Divorced ladies: ever had luck with internet dating sites? I've been divorced for 5 years and have a young son. My ex and I are great friends, so I don't have terrible feelings around it. It took me a long time to get close to someone, only to have it be over in only 2 months. The man was hot but just totally wrong for me, a bit of a sexist pig once I got to know him better. Now I want to date some more, and have been using internet dating sites off and on for years, with no success. The men sound great on paper and their pictures are ok, but I just kind find myself getting hot over them! I can converse with just about anyone and have a pretty good time, but that doesn't mean there's chemistry. I'm sick of blind dates (even if I've seen their picture...so it's 'medium 'blind). I'm in my mid-40's and it's hard to find an unmarried man where I live close to my age. But I'm just plain too reluctant and scared to meet someone I've never actually "met" before. Any advice?

need help with dating advice!? I been single for about 3 or 4 months now , im tired of being alone and i miss having someone to love on all the time. I have been hurt alot in the past from previous relationships, and that makes it hard for me to trust men. It has actually lowered my self asteem alot and makes it hard for me to meet guys also. I have tried the internet dating stuff and when i find a connection with a guy my self esteem blows it cause i get scared to meet him. I dont think im a ugly girl at all .. theres just some things about me i would change like my weight and my skin. Im not fat im just a little thick. Alot of people say im beautiful but i find it hard to belive. and thats were the trouble come in for dating, being scared of rejection. I just want to get out there and find the perfect guy that i could see myself marrying and falling madly in love with , but i just dont know how to get out there and look for him.

Any advice for a shy guy looking to find someone from the internet to date? I do feel I'm too shy and nervous to be able to approach a woman anywhere in person. It actually is more comfortable to get to know someone who is actually looking and/or willing to talk to you, which is usually online. Would anyone have any advice on some datings sites or a site's chat rooms? I appreciate any advice. If you have any questions, I'll address them immediately. I have given my space a try, I'm still using it and seeing if anyone will respond to me.

First date advice for a thirty-something? I know this may sound crazy, but I'm in my thirties and I may have the opportunity to meet a guy I met via Internet. Any dating tips for this first-timer? And it sounds like he wants me to come meet him on his boat. Should I go, or should I suggest a more public place? He sounds really sweet and I'd really like to meet him. Also, I really want him to like me. Any advice from the dating pros here? Thank you.

Internet dating question? I joined an internet dating site. I had one date with someone who I felt a true connection with. He asked if I would want to have a second date and I said yes. He left for a ten day business trip out of the country the day after our date. He hasn't contacted me since the date. I didn't expect him to either until he returned. I saw last night that he was online on the site. Should I email him a nice hello message while he is out of town? OR Should I just wait for him to contact me? I am 31 and so bad at this stuff with men. I have always messed it up in the past. Who should contact who etc....? any advice?

Ladies, I need your advice - dating question? I've just joined this internet dating site. This girl sent me a wink. I sent her back one and told her on looking at her profile, that we had a bit in common. I also asked her what she thought was the ideal first date for her. Anyway, she replied back saying that she also thought we had a lot in common. In answering my question about her ideal first date - she said that she liked first dates which involved meeting up for a casual coffee or drinks, in a relaxed atmosphere. She then asked me what I thought? Now, I'm not sure what would be the best way to respond to this. I don't want to put pressure on her to meet me so soon in the peice. I want her to feel comfortable with me before I ask her out. How would you best answer her question?

I need some advice. I am 39 yrs old, been married twice. How do I begin dating again? I have realized that my first boyfriend who was my first husband, is the real love of my life. BUT he's remarried to someone. We still have a "look" for each other but I know he's off limits, as I would NEVER mess around with a married man, even if I do love him with everything I am! HOW do I get on with my life and find someone else to love. I'm so scared of growing old alone! I'm not into the bar scene, I'm too scared to go into internet dating, I don't go out much. I have no idea where to even MEET single men. HELP?

Internet dating sites - do they work? I am back in the single lane after recent separation? Not a nightclub or bar kind of guy. And i'm pushing 40 with 2 young kids. So friends recommended lavalife or match.

Any advice or stories to share?

Internet Dating for a new mother... is there a better alternative? I am a 20 year old new mother and work full time so, its hard to date. But, I would like to find "The One"... Internet dating seems so impersonal, and most of the time I contact perverts that only think about sex, and not long-term relationships. Any advice?

Internet dating, what is you take on it? That is how I met my lady. And to those that need advice on the matter. 1. ALWAYS USE A WEBCAM AND NEVER TALK TO ANYONE WHO DOESN'T USE A WEBCAM AS WELL!!! That is the most important rule to ensure that you are speaking with who the person claims to be. 2. USE COMPLETE SENTENCES AND WORDS lol idk my bff Jill - This kind of speech will get you no one and is a huge turnoff to most people.

Internet dating question - am I being smart or stupid? I have never been a fan of internet dating & have no desire to do it. However I was secretly looking at one of those sites as had been told a friend was on it. Just wanted to check for a laugh. Then a guy caught my eye so I signed on to contact him. Pics & what he wrote seem perfectly normal, if not a tad shy. Not Brad Pitt hot but someone I find attractive. I plan on meeting him in a public place. No exchanging of emails but getting to know each other face to face as if we had met at a bar or something. Advice ?? I mean how do you really know about anyone, right? PS. Just to add: I live in Australia and while we don't have zero crime, we have a smaller population and thus (hopefully) a lower number of crazy people compared to USA. I have nothing against USA...been there a number of times and had safe fun visits to big cities.

HELP ...Boyfriend on Internet dating site, what do I do? I met my boyfriend on the internet nearly 9 months ago. We agreed that we did not need the internet site and we both took down our profiles 7 months ago. I still get emails from that site telling me about special offers, so I went to go change my email options (which I thought I did). Just wanting to look at which guys were there and thinking how happy I was that I didn't have to do this any more, one the 1st page, who's face did I see? My BOYFRIEND'S. His profile is back on there. I need advice, what should I do? How should I handle this (We are both older than 30, so I need an mature way to deal with this).

anyone over 25 yrs old that done internet dating please help.? i dove head-first into internet dating. not because im soooo busy, i just wasn't meeting new people. so i decided to be proactive about dating and i finally joined. literally out of 100 pics and profiles, i've narrowed it down to 3 guys i find interesting. ive done the emails, chats with them and have moved on to talking on the phone. all 3 "seem" really great. my concern is that i don't want to be a serial dater. it's none of my business (right now anyways) if they are dating tons of girls from the same online site, but personally for me - i just don't want to. should i just get over it and just date 3 guys at the same time until i end up with just one? or should i date one at a time until i end up with one? i already have plans for friday and have been asked out for saturday (haven't said yes). if i make the others wait for im afraid they will eventually become disinterested and move on. any advice?

Internet Dating and ettiquette? Boyfriend still online.? I have been dating my boyfriend for 5 months and have been exclusive for 2. We met on a dating site and then decided to go exclusive. He said he would not go online, however I didn't realize he never took his profile off though it looks like he does not chat online. This dating site allows you to email people from your personal email address, so if someone contacts him he can respond. I am uncomfortable knowing he is still advertising himself. I will confront him, but ask for solid advice from any males out there. I don't want to be the last to find out...the fool.

dating advice!!!? which would be safer dating a guy off the internet or a guy ive met in person?

What would be some good advice for writing intro e-mails when meeting people on online dating sites? I find it really hard to write introductory e-mails on an internet dating site. I try to keep them brief and friendly, and I also try to end with an icebreaker type question... though I try to reword that so it's not so impersonal, ie. "If you could see anyone in concert tonight, who would it be?" rather than "What kind of music do you like?" Generally, I either get terse responses, with no follow up question to keep the conversation going, or no answer at all. I did have someone respond to one saying, basically, "Wtf? Why would you ask me that?" But I thought that was obvious... something about his profile caught my eye, and I was trying to start a conversation. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Meeting a guy from an internet dating site.? I actually need to be assured if this is a good meeting plan or not. I met this guy in an internet site. I am a bit serious so after a few e-mails I told him I would like to meet him in person rather than IM to a strange web page profile and investing my feelings and interests in something it might not work when we meet in person. He agreed without hesitation. As we were both students in the same university I thought it will be better to arrange it in the university's cafeteria, around midday (when it is full of people) and 2 hours before my next class so that I don't spend TOO much time with him. I also thought to tell to my friend Adam (he also attends the same class) to either pick me up or call me if I am late in class (something that will be unusual anyway for me). Does that seem good or will I appear paranoid the guy I am meeting? Also if you have any tips on what information I should not answer and stuff please do not hesitate to mention. Any advice is good to me. Heh for anyone that I might seem peculiar, it is that I have never ever dated anyone from internet before. I am not paranoid but I just didn't know if it was a good plan.
