Yeah, that's just "uhm, wha'?". Just like any other place you can walk,crawl,run,drive,surf to that's considered a singles-ish hangout, don't think it won't be hit or miss on any type of person.

Online dating is no different than a bar/club in that respect.

Yeah but face to face you get a better indication of who/what you are dealing with.
No different if you have a important in depth business dealing, its more effective face to face or failing that a phone call.....much more effective than email or online writing only communication.

Yes I find women at the mall are usually in a relaxed mood and very easy to talk to and there are so many topics of conversation right at hand, from sales to food to work (if talking to store employees).

Just don't be one of those creepy dudes who walks around scouting for hot ladies to talk too. Also don't be one of those dudes who sits in the mall lounges gawking and staring down women.
Let's hope that with all this practice he's been putting in he's learned how NOT to leer at every woman he sees.

Very true....especially if you live in a bigger city where only 1 in every 25,000 ladies is very attractive while the rest are just blah. The obesity and overweight rate is also sky high.

Well you won't compete at ALL if you don't try. Oh that's right...it has to be easy, quick, convenient, and no cost. What was I thinking?

I think they more easily pick you apart online as everything can be analyzed to a degree approaching absurdity from a male to female perspective. It does still have more of a stigma for women, they think they're desperate more often for doing it, or believe it to be not as safe as an initial public 30 blurb and phone # exchange for some reason. So the ratio is usually still pretty low.

All that said, I've had no problems really here when I've used it.
And frankly, this area has got a pretty low ratio of females to males, as Delaware is like Jersey, great to be from, but any that can get out, do so.

Just drive through, hiss, and make warding signs on your way through both to get to NYC.

You're still hanging out at bars?

And you're still smoking? Krikey!



This reminds me of the old joke about the guy sitting around shooting the breeze with a BMOC jock.

Jock goes on and on and on about himself. He finally runs out of gas (temporarily), and says, enough about me, let's talk about you. How did you like the way I played in the last game?
