I used online dating sites for about five months and it kept me pretty busy. I emailed a lot more people than I got replies from, but I met some fun girls. Don't limit yourself to one site though, I think I was on four at one point. My current gf found me on Zoosk.
i don't waste my time with online dating!! with all the hot chicks on there there pics are probily fake no 1 no 2 how do you know what there doing when there online. no 3 id'e rather see the person face to face seeings how thats the ultimate situation. no 4 how do you know there being honest or feeding you bull****?? no 5 or they will try scamming money off you some of them.
Agreed, there are some men and women posting fake pictures (pictures taken 10 years ago) and writing false profiles, but they are just wasting their own time as well as other people's time, since ultimately the "truth" will be revealed. However, it is a huge time and money saver to first converse over the internet, before financially and emotionally investing in an actual date at a nice restaurant.
In real life, most people only meet a very small fraction of the pool of available people of the opposite sex. So, in theory at least, one has a far better chance of meeting someone really compatible using internet dating than if they only dated those who were immediately available to them close by.
The more people who post their profile on dating sites, the better the dating scene will become for everybody. If 100% of the available people posted their profile, people would be finding their "soul mate" a whole heck of a lot faster, and perhaps the divorce rate would finally start going down.
I pity you. You have no idea of the real world. There are sincere men on dating sites who are looking for relationships because they can pick up any woman in bars but bars aren't their thing and they want a quality woman so they go to a place where they can be selective and read what someone writes on their profile. It tells a lot and I'm guessing what you say gives off the creepy vibe that only attracts the desperate, low quality types. This is your experience and only yours. However, it is not the same for people who are seriously seeking a quality mate. That is not easily found. Hence, casting a wider net is a logical approach and is used with discrimination. Not desperation, discrimination because we would rather be alone then be with idiots.
First of all just because you meet a women on line doesn't mean she's "quality". Second of all why do people on here talk down on bars. I've talked to women at bars who owned their own business's, women who were doctors. You're telling me they're not quality? I like going out to meet women, I like seeing what I'm dealing with, instead of somebody hiding behind a computer.
It seems like most guys who use online dating will never get a date, even if they message 1000 different girls. If you are not very attractive and have a good paying job, most women wouldn't even bother with you. It seems like a waste of time and money for most guys since women can be extremely selective.

A ugly and overweight guy with no money wouldn't do well with women in public either-LOL
I have made a lot of female friends through online dating, few friends with benefits, and 2 short relationships. I use it as a backup but if you are not getting any responses, sorry to say but there is something wrong with you or your profile.
Most women on these websites are "broken goods", lots of losers, honestly, I have never met anyone who I would consider "long term relationship worthy" but it is fun!
I use Telephone Dating as a backup-lol Never thought that would happen
IMO, online dating is pointless. I'm not against it, but I don't see a point. I went on just to see what it was like. I had no problem getting attention from women, but most of them IMO have issues. If a woman is decent looking, smart, and not clinically insane; she shouldn't have a problem finding a date away from the computer. Unless she's just looking for attention or casual sex, which gets right back to my point on issues.
