    Internet dating has its place but I don't like long online correspondences. Meeting face to face as soon as possible is better because you're less likely to waste each other's time. Do not waste time online corresponding for weeks with idiots who vaguely flirt with you and ask for a constant stream of "selfies". I don't mean to be crude but some of these people use internet dating as a form of enhanced masturbation.

    I would advise you to leave internet dating for a while. It might be better to get out in the real world and meet people face to face in a non-pressurised setting. Take up a sport or some other hobby to have an interest and build your self-esteem. It's better to meet somebody when you're feeling confident and happy. If you're not confident you're more likely to attract predators and idiot timewasters like the guy online.

    There's bootcamp groups, meetup groups, hiking groups, triathlon groups, you name it there's a group for it.

    No, because why would it ever come up? This thread just wouldnt exist - ignorance is bliss.

    Anyone asking questions about a potential partners past (other than have you always practiced safe sex and if not have you been tested recently) is asking for trouble.

    Or even just to make friends, have someone to talk to etc. Some people are OK with that, some aren't but the other person isn't at fault if you let it happen, how are they meant to know you're not on the same page!

    Don't ask questions you don't want to know the answer to in future and remember you're both single until otherwise discussed!! Certainly when you haven't even met!!
