Yeah...I have no problem if people do online dating and I'm not going to judge somebody if they told me they met on online dating, but I'm not going to do it. Still to shaming to me.Edit: yes, I'm aware of the irony. But this is different.

Good luck with a life of masturbation and all that pride

my group of friends was pretty brutal to one of us when they found out he had an online dating profile. it really pissed me off. you can't tool someone for not having a girlfriend and then also tool them for attempting to get one.I hear of lots of people using okcupid to get laid but very few instances of lasting relationships. so I don't know. I hope I never have to use one of those sites.

I could see how meeting people online would be weird for you.Edit: I don't see anything wrong or shameful with online dating sites.

We can fiddle with this and make it work. Can we add to it that you ride and train horses, probably have killed things, are patient (6 months patient) pretty decent off the tee, have a gaggle of online friends who find you funnier every day. If her panties don't fall off reading that, I can't help her.

Hey Ron, I had an olive green suit too.

Cuz you're a man, that's why. Also, none of my Likes were ironic. If you made me lol, you got a chuckle

Online dating is the very end of the line. There is no coming back from that. I'm not ready yet and I doubt nappy is either. We still have the hope of drunken mistakes. But if I ever do go online, I'll probably scope for Christian chicks. Just probe for one that isn't too pushy with it, but kept things pretty well locked down (if you know what I mean). I figure sex might not be as important to a Christian lady, and that matters because I'm never going to satisfy her sexually. Also I'm sitting in the waiting room at the mechanics while my car gets inspected and an amber alert for stratso's town came across te radio. Some little girl kidnapped. Strat, time to become a hero. But seriously kidnapping isn't cool.

Christian chicks, ughh. I can't even fake that for some super hot ass. Not for a relationship. No way. Hell, I'd probably go all Larry David during a one night stand with a Jesus freak and call her ut during the middle of it Ok, probably after I skeeted And Yes, I get that they allegedly don't have one night stands. Got news for ya, they do. Last point: would you bet your next paycheck that it wasn't Strat that did the kidnapping? Yeah, me neither. Dj killed it today.

[DJ Vu]

I'd bet my next paycheck on that. What's the implication there?Ooh, a clue!

[Ron_Mexico]

Ok fine, so would I. But that wouldn't have been amusing.

You will have absolutely no problem with it when you hit 35-40 and still no woman in sight. Then you'll be kicking yourself that you didn't just connect with someone when you were 25 or however old you are.

I think it's weird that anyone finds them wrong or shameful. They seem super helpful and oddly perfect for Strat AND Napa. Who both seem like the kind of people that KILL it once the initial barriers are broken, which is exactly what the sites do for you.I have several friends who are married from using online sites.One couple lived in the same town.Another couple lived on opposite sides of the country.I had one friend that was paying a local dating service called "selective singles" $800/month (for 2 years) for their service and never found anyone he liked. Went online, got married.

That wasn't a dating service, it was an escort service

[InternetExplorer]

I don't think it's shameful or anything. I don't know. again, I defend people who do it, I just don't want to be in a place where I want to use it. single but not lonely.

[ShakeZuma]

I think you guys are selling being alone and miserable forever way short here. at least I hope you are.

[Ron_Mexico]

I could never pull off online dating. I never tried but that stemmed from a lack of confidence due to being a tubby. I feared my dynamic personality wouldn't translate to a medium that was all about the aesthetics initially. I desperately feared the look of disappointment on any girls face upon our first face to face meeting. I was a pussy. They had the same fear. It was a miscalculation on my part cuz, I mean, how charming am I online? I KNOW, RIGHT????

[ShakeZuma]

see it's suspicious cause it's black

Oh, I totally understand that aspect, but with online, you just need to post legit photos, so that part is over. If it goes on from there, the aesthetics don't matter anymore.

what about me, brvy? how do you think i would do?

I don't remember seeing pictures of you, so I have no idea. But I think nearly anyone would find a woman quickly online. I don't think she would necessarily be 'hot' or whatever, since... you know why. But I do think that there would be plenty of women that would be thrilled to be married to all three of you. I also think it's possible that you could all get someone in a higher league than you could in a bar or wherever.

[ShakeZuma]

see that's the thing though. I'm sure I could find a woman online really quickly too. it's that whole "meeting her and keeping her from hating me post date #2" thing that would still be left out there hanging. YOU GOT A CURE FOR THAT INTERNET?!

[brvheart]

Shake, you're best bet online will be the Russian Bride route.
