Lavalife is not a per minute service. You buy different blocks of time.

Mmm, well I guess you have worked it out. How much are you prepared to spend to find the right "one?"

Without ever meeting her you think its as simple as ordering from a menu in restaurant?

You're deluding yourself. The chances are about the same as any other dating site.

You think ordering something from a menu is simple for Grasshopper? He gets there at opening time and they're closing up for the night by the time his decision is made ...

I'm guessing that deciding which block of Lavalife time to buy must have been completely mentally draining. Do you suppose that sort of expenditure goes on the "dating emergency" credit card or the regular household account?

Neither. It will be yet another thread.

Actually, if you are a NORMAL person, that actually has social skills and is able to COMMUNICATE with the opposite sex without jumping onto a forum and asking a question about EVERY SINGLE COMMENT that someone makes, then your chances are not too bad.

Every LTR I have had, since I got divorced many years ago, began though an online dating site.

But that would mean the weather would have to be PERFECT, he would have to feel PERFECT (no aches or pains or headyaches ), the location would have to be very close, the meeting would have to be very cheap, and there would have to be NO sports on TV that night.

Yeah, all the stars in the sky would align before this happens!

Been a lurker around these parts and have read many of TVSG's threads.

I'm curious what does he look like, esp since he seems to scare women away more than attract them, it seems.

And the date would have to end fairly early so Sports Guy could get to bed for work in the morning so he's not late again and in the dog house.
