Do you think online dating is over-rated

starlit

What do you think, is online dating over-rated? Is it not better to meet people in a more traditional setting than off a dating website!? What do you make of it as part of the dating scene?

Instead of seeing somebody and working up the balls to go over, theres now a whole other level of crap people can put themselves through.....

It seems you have to pay for most online dating sites. Porn is free though. Do the maths :pac:

Ya a couple of the dating sites you need to pay but there are a few that you don't have to pay like think you aren't wasting your money that way at least.

It works out for some but doesn't work out for others....

To be over rated it'd have to be thought of highly to begin with, but I wasn't aware that it's something people are raving about.

I don't have much experience with them tbh other than the fact that I automatically got signed up to one after I did a personality test that was posted up here originally I believe. I get emails every few days from it saying who I'm a match with and then I subsequently get linked to their page. Theyre is a few pretty gals on it to be fair.

flyaway.

Meh. I suppose they're not for everybody but they do work out for some people. I don't think they're ''over-rated'' though because I don't really hear many people talking about how amazing they are or anything... quite the opposite, really.

I never tried it, but I am not opposed to it.

There is just stuff missing in an online "chat up"

How they smell, how they walk, talk and laugh, that all important chemical reaction ect.

But I can see it as away to get a date and then who knows.

yeah that chemistry / real life interaction is just not something you can get a feel for until you meet up.

Why is it being "rated" at all? I have no interest in ways other people meet each other. Whether it's a dating site, meeting in pub, club or library.

I don't give a fcuk, it's not my problem. Who the hell would be even thinking of "rating" this?

Its a complete and utter waste of time and money.

Yes, I was a big enough fool to pay for three months on match.com

I've learned my lesson. I haven't recieved one genuine reply from 20 emails sent.

Ill stick to bars and pubs to be honest.

I once dated a Chinese woman I met through an internet dating website. On the second date, I invited her back to my place.

I asked her if she wanted to go upstairs for a 69.

She said, 'I'm not cooking at this time of night'.

You must have had some disgusting XXX-grade filthy photos up to get loads of views straight away.

Therefore, I'm interested.

Shocking really! I wasn't expecting it I don't know where to start

'Tis pure tripe to be honest! Meeting people in traditional settings is far better than meeting off a dating site. It works for some and doesn't for others. :rolleyes:
