OLD is addicting, you'll see you would like it, you can do both.
It is as addicting as City Data, and you can meet lovely ladies, too!
This is not a dating site, it is more meant as an "encyclopedia."....:-D)
It still wouldn't interest me ( and I have tried it when I was urged by mates years and years ago... And had 2 arranged/ agreed one night stands from it .... It was fun but still prefer in person )

I'll preface this by saying I'm a woman, so that alone plays its own role in the OLD scene. I did have success with OLD. I didn't struggle for dates. I dated several men casually, had a couple 6+ month relationships, met my husband on OKC, and am still friends with some really cool people I met on these sites.
I didn't pursue relationships offline. I was approached a lot and had many opportunities, but it was not my style. I did the meetup groups, and they were not good for meeting potential matches for a variety of reasons, and my immediate social circle is, like, 90% married women or women with children. I wasn't that into the bar or club scene, seldom drink, etc., and meeting dudes while out, typically running errands or with my kids, was not ideal. (though I was approached a lot anyway)
I preferred OKC for meeting potential matches who are legit compatible for a long term relationship. My husband had better success on sites like OKC as well. I know he's gone on dates with women he met offline, but they never went anywhere and weren't compatible. He had a better experience gauging true compatibility on OKC.
The ex-boyfriend before him, also met on OKC, dated a few women he met on OKC or Match. He went on several dates, actually. And I know several others who had good success.
How did you become sort of serious with someone without ever going on a date?
We talked for a while and I liked her and she admitted that she liked me too. I actually told her I wanted to take her out on a date and she agreed, but this was a day or two prior to me going on nearly a month long vacation with my family. We kind of stopped talking as much and I think she started talking to other guys.

how do you know that he is very successful?
