I feel like if someone has to resort to using online dating then their dignity is greatly diminished. It means that a person has a fundamental flaw that inhibits them from properly communicating with the opposite sex in the real world.
Technically, online dating should be the perfect dating vehicle for the masses.
It takes care of looks, by far the most important factor in dating, right at the beginning without the embarrassment and guilt that comes with rejecting people you know in regular life.
It also eliminates the weirdness of having to see people you have rejected or been rejected by again who are in your social circle, especially if they start dating other people you know.
Theoretically, it should be perfect.
Exactly this. Dating doesn't operate in a vacuum like some on this forum unwittingly believe. I results and failures are probably not different than doing it the "socially" way. If ends lead to a good result what does the process in doing it matter.

It also depends on your circumstances. Many years ago I had amazing dating options when I worked for a telecomm company that had way more female employees than where I work now. Now if I was trying to find a connection through work or even my mostly married friends I would be sitting at home alone a lot of nights. Online dating isn't always as bad as the extreme perspectives make it sound. However, I did go through the stigma of feeling bad about online dating, but it's not all bad sir.
Anyone who uses a service and goes out with someone they know nothing about beyond that, in my opinion. is not very smart and could end up dead or molested.
Yep, because rapists and serial killers haunt online dating site exclusively. I know a lot more about a guy when I meet him in person after connecting online than I do meeting someone just out and about.
Why is it when watching a vehicle in a mirror turning right, the vehicle actually turns right in the reflection while it should turn left in the reflection ?
Please don't try to observe this phenomenon while operating a motor vehicle. Instead, as a passenger, observe it through the side view mirror. It's a physics anomaly. Or not, but if you can explain it to me, I would be grateful.

I tried online dating because:
1. In my area are no single tall people that I could meet naturally.
2. All my friends are married and won't drive all the way to LA with me to find a guy there
And yes, it is dangerous to meet a stranger.
Every time I went somewhere for a first date, I let my computer on with the persons profile up. I told a friend where I was meeting this person, his description and phone number and if I don't call her in 1 hour, she should call me. If I don't answer, call the cops.
Plus my pepperspray in my purse ...
But still, of course there is still a chance I turn up dead. I met alot of freaks and i am happy, nothing bad happened so far.I am also relying on rapists and murderers to go for short girls - much easier target as a tall woman.
It’s true! Indeed internet dating sites are replete with serial killers. I’m a serial killer, and I date online. So is my neighbor. So is his wife. They met online, and for their wedding-feast they butchered my other set of neighbors. Now the neighborhood is pleasantly quiet; and the meat was delicious.
We all used to frequent serialkillerdating.com, but that site was overflowing with fat people with poor teeth, so now we’re all on okcupid. Sometimes Cupid’s machinations are fatal. They did, after all, kill Psyche’s two older sisters. But I’m not dumb – I don’t state “serial killer” as my profession. Instead I write “systematic raiser of entropy by artificial means”.
The last time that I had a physical meeting with a woman who I met online, I attempted to murder her. I wanted to use an axe, but was frustrated in my efforts, because the bar where we met had a strict no-axe policy. My state has a conceal-carry axe policy, provided that you take a state-approved axe-wielding class. Unfortunately bar owners these days are zealously squeamish. They’ve started hanging “no axes allowed” signs on all doors.

This is nuts. If you are looking for someone with rare attributes (child free, certain level of education, member of minor religious sect, etc.) it makes perfect sense to look online so you are looking at people you would actually want to meet, rather than just mingling with the general population, most of whom would not be who you want to meet anyway. Make sense?

Have you ever written anything positive on this site?

I would agree with this statement if it was applied to the socially defunct people I met using Meetup.com.
