I am not even going to try it -- I haven't dated in m ore than 10 years, but it is a different world out there in so many ways I am finding out! Call me old-fashioned, but when I am ready I expect I will meet someone thru whatever qactivities or interests I get involved socially with, like how I made friends when I had friends in the olden days.

It may be better...but expensive

I'm sure that there probably are some honest people there (just as anywhere else), but the problem is figuring out which ones.

One of my friends is getting married Valentines Day weekend. She and he met on One of the big ones, think it was match.com. They have been together about 2 years.

I know that this is an unusual outcome. They are early 40's. They are Perfect together. I am so glad that the online stuff existed just for Them!!! Anita needed her Andrew.

Another friend, from Sac, met her hubby that way about 10 years ago.

I signed on the first week after stbx said Divorce simply because I was NUTS!!!

I signed on This week simply because I am now NUTS and bored silly ;-) Well, not quite true, I still have plenty of work to do for another few days, but Plan to be bored shortly.

Maybe I am really nuts???

I never did too well with the lottery either.

Well, on a positive (???) note, I met my stbx on Yahoo personals.... Too bad they didn't have a question about whether they were single, but with boyfriend....

I am have tried the dating services before I was married and being back in the pool agian is so much different this time around then it was the first. I have so much more that I have to consider exspecially my kids any ways I would take the the lottery winnings and run them maybe find that someone that I could actually share them with.

I do not have a positive experience from online dating. Guys from my work put my profile online for me to "help me" move on. I believe you have the same chances on line as you do if you go to a bar. Many people do not post actual pictures or facts about them. But on the other hand, there are some that do. So dont sell everyone short, just the majority and be careful.

Also, I have perused Craigslist myself to see whats out there. I prefer to not go out there via that tool either.

Some have had success on these, so dont sell yourself short or give up hope. Be very very careful though!! Be comfortable with you and what you want.

I shall speak only for myself...I am honest! LOL

I haven't tried to meet anyone, but have been on a few, and I get a good laugh at reading some of the profiles. Reminds me of when I was younger and a bunch of us would read the personals of the newpaper and laugh at them.

But I am honest in my profiles. Don't want someone else starting out with lies, so I wouldn't do that either.

I read a great news story about a guy in France who met his perfect match online. They decided to meet and reveal their true names & appearances on a beach. When he arrived, it turned out to be his MOM!!! AaaaaAAaaahhhhh! True story...

Did I mention she was still married to his dad & trying to have an affair? Or that the story got out because a police officer found them on the beach and wrote it up?

Just so you don't think I'm making it up!...

I joined okcupid when I wasn't doing so well, maybe that was a mistake. I did meet one person though, and I'm sure if I were Ready we could have spent some time together. I also met someone that we helped each other with our current situation at the time, but nothing more.

I don't know... it's a strange world.

I met my soulmate on DS, not intentionally just sharing our experiences and lives. I think trying so hard like a dating site encourages just leads to fibs and dissapointment
