Online dating

[sumbirdy]

Have any of you ever tried this? I made a profile on Yahoo! Personals but right now I'm only doing the free stuff. Can't email anyone back. I actually found a couple of people I wouldn't mind getting to know. I just don't want to pay the money. Maybe I will once I get a job... Anyway just wanted to know if anyone else has ever done this and did it work out?

I haven't tried it out (since I'm in a wonderful relationship,) but i did browse a few sites just for the fun of it.

Last year one had joined up with Petfinder. I remember i couldn't find it in listings on search engines. It looked pretty neat. It was a dating site for pet lovers only.

*pause*

Ah ha! Sometimes I love that i save every little thing. Here is an email i sent to a friend. (This was from Dec 2005! "Last year"? Boy my sense of time is off.)

The promotional deal is no longer up. Two months ago when you signed up through Petfinder you got a Premium Membership for six years!

(Remember to uncheck the box next to that light blue text on the form if you don't want to be spammed. "I'd like to receive information on discounts and specials from select Animal Attraction partners" )

Hubby and I met online.

Hubby and I met online.

Same here. He is from Italy and I'm from Canada (now living in Italy). We are married just over 3 years and have been together just over 6. It wasn't through an online dating service. We met on ICQ.

I met my boyfriend online (we used plentyoffish.com. It's free ) He's definitely the one.. I have no doubt about that, neither does he. I'm just sitting around, waiting for a ring now. We were made for each other. It still blows our mind knowing that we found each other online.

I also met my husband online but it wasn't on a service..... we just met by chance on Yahoo messenger. We never thought back then that in three years time we would be happily married and expecting our first child haha. It's amazing what you find when you aren't actually looking for it.

I know a lot of people that have tried E Harmony and are now happily married to someone they found on there.

So they really do work.... but don't rush anything and always be cautious.

I met my husband in March 1998 playing a game called Ultima Online.
We've been together ever since. I moved from Houston to Phoenix in January 1999 and we got married in December 1999. For us it worked.

My brother's best friend (who is like my big brother too) married a girl he met through match.com on the same day I married my husband. Weird huh? Well, they were divorced before their first anniversary. So theirs is an example of it not working. It's not something that works for everyone.

Good luck!

I met my boyfriend online too. We've been together now for a year and a half.
We actually 'met' on myspace! Now I wasn't using myspace as a dating site and neither was he but we just started talking and it went from there! We hope to get an apartment together next year and while I'm not ready to get married again yet, it could be in our future.

After hearing all sorts of horror stories and reading the book, "Likes Music Loves to Dance" by Mary Higgins Clark, I don't trust online dating. Ya never know WHO you're communicating with. There are some real whackjobs out there.

Yeah.....it's true. I'd be worried about turning up at some ladies house and then being dragged in by a couple of birds with a meat cleaver !!!!!
I betcha it's happened before !!!! Not for me.

Just show up in your pink sequined undies.... if they don't die laughing you can blind them with the sequins You would be perfectly safe hahaha.
