So back to that online dating thing…
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I’m back! Hope you all were nice to Beautiful as she played moderator yesterday.
When we last chatted Wednesday, Robin asked to revisit the topic of online dating, especially as some people talked about their best dates and even marriages resulting from the online hook-up.
(We’ve all done it, and I bet those of you who haven’t have at least looked!)
I’ve had good and bad experiences from my online adventures…
My only success, if we can count it, is with a guy I met four years ago through Match.com. I didn’t really feel sparks with him then, but he found me in a new city last summer and we started dating before I moved to Atlanta. My, my, my what a difference a couple years can make; our chemistry (and extra-curriculars) were sizzling! That said, neither of us wanted to do long-distance, so here I am.
I tried Match again earlier this year, stupidly thinking it would help me pre-screen my dates for compatibility. How wrong I was! The last straw was detailed in this blog about a grown man crying fetal position on my living room floor. That’s when I decided to cancel my account and return to the real world for my dating adventures.
My online disasters aside, my sister had better luck: she married the guy she met through Yahoo personals.
Do you think online dating has lost its taboo? Do you go online just to find people for a hook-up? Have you ever met someone online, just to find out he or she is married? And if online dating is in your past, what made you stop?

For some reason, and not knocking others, I cannot bring myself to that. Just too many wackos and seems like a last resort type effort. I rather enjoy meeting and greeting folks the old fashion way. A smile in passing, sparked conversation while waiting in line or using a common interest as a means to jumpstart a convo. Just my thoughts though.

Good day all…I have never done the online dating thing…never did personal ads either…mainly because in almost all cases whenever I have met someone that I was attracted to it happened in a spontaneous, unanticipated occurrence…bam! oh, hello…uh, who are you???…so I guess that being the custom to which I favor then I do not think that I would be very open to online engagements and encounters…the click factor would be missing…but hey, I have heard of some situations working out and others that did not…to each his/her own.

Hi all, Long time reader and lurker - first post! I am very passionate about this! I am 45 years old, married now thanks to my computer! I participated in online dating for about two years- however that was 9 years ago!I was never married and tired of the choices I had made. I was a single mom who didnt have time to go to bars or places to meet men. I could chat at 2 am in my PJs! I dated several weirdos and several who were deceitful. I mainly chatted in a chat room. They really didnt have the online services like they have now. I finally started chatting with a guy who lived two miles away. We have been together for the past 9 years - 1 year dating, lived together for 6 years and married the last three. We couldn’t be any happier. Always on the same page, great passion and he is a great dad to my now 16 yr old daughter! HE IS 10 YEARS YOUNGER THAN ME. That is the best part! He keeps me young and pulls me away from work when I need to relax! I teach elementary school and three of my colleagues are online dating. Lots of dates but nothing amazing. One chats with them for a long, long tine before she meets them. She is in it just for sex and they all seem to be fine with that. The other two are looking for a partner but havent found one yet. In our profession, it is VERY hard to meet available men, so this is a great outlet! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ALL. But please be careful. We have a system set up. I am a dating buddy - in that they text me the address, phone number, etc..for all dates and updates throughout the night via text. Rule is that if I dont get a “Im home” text by 6am - we come and get them. So far that hasn’t happened. Meet in public places! And always bring your own car! I have left several times in the middle of dinner! Good luck all….there is someone out there!

Glad you’re happy SueinDouglasville. I know of only one person that dated and married their online partner. A good friend of mine does the online dating and she’s met some pretty decent people. I also love the “dating buddy” concept.

Good morning all! It’s friday, I made it!!! LOL
One thing about online dating is that you can be a picky as you want. List your dream criteria and if they person doesn’t match most of it, you can throw em back into the dating pool!
I did a free trial at eharmony and all of my matches were under 5’8. They don’t factor any type of physical on that site so I suspect it might high a higher troll ratio. LOL. I do value character above all else, but also know physical attraction is important!
I’ve tried match and I enjoyed it. Being picky worked for me and I had some really great convos with most of my matches that got to that point. I just get skittish when the whole “meeting” part has to happen.

For Online Dating To me it seems so hit or miss. I’ve never done it. My assumption…you’re meeting lots of desperados on these sites.
I have facebook & myspace. My contacts are people that I know. I don’t send friend requests to all hot girls I can look up. A friend of mine had a photo with a cute girl. I contacted her saying I knew her friend etc etc. If we ever run into eachother or whatever. She reached me back saying definitely to stay in touch. I don’t know much about this girl, but seems really fun and very cute. Who knows, this may be my first online connection possibly? We’ll see where this ends up. Again, random online contacts I don’t put a lot of faith in.
The fact that we both have this common friend that we know…does help weed out the psycho factor a bit!

I wouldn’t online date on any social networking site like MySpace. It’s free. LOL. At least with online dating site you are admitting you are looking for a date and willing to pay for that priviledge. Just seems like one more small layer of seriousness or something. LOL

A female friend of mine convinced me to try online personals. I went on 10 or 12 first dates, made 2nd dates with a couple of them. I found that they misrepresented themselves quite a lot, and were prone to becoming quite upset when I didn’t ask them out for subsequent dates, as they thought the first dates went so well. I guess in spite of my dim view of what first dates are all about, I showed them a pretty good time anyway.
I felt pretty bad for a lot of them. They seemed in need of being saved somehow — financially, emotionally, etc. It may have been demographic, as they were all in their mid to late 30’s or early 40’s and had children. I might not have given the online experience enough of a chance, but at the time I thought that was enough. It was kind of like setting up your own blind dates.

At least with Myspace or Facebook, you meet people who are friends with your friends. May have similar Unversity in common, same area, age, interests, etc. These programs at least you can ping someone you find interesting through someone and see what happens.
Match and Spark or these sites its just blind chance. Bet there are some really funny stories from meeting people from these sites too!

Sam, Nah. I’m my instance I’m just very cautious as a single female who lives alone. I take very little unnecessary risks and yes, online there is a lot of game playing and misrepresentation. I havent reached a comfort level with online dating. And I meet enough folks in real life anyway.

I must be the luckiest mofo on the planet, b/c I tried online dating & had a great experience. Went out on several first dates (no horror stories), a couple of those led to 2nd, 3rd or more… and within 3 months met the girl I’m now engaged to.
It made sense for me for a variety of reasons — I hate clubs; I work in software development, so meeting women at work isn’t much of an option. Really about the best opportunity I would have to meet girls in day-to-day life would be playing in mixed-doubles tennis leagues… but even then, I’m so competitive that unless the girl was on my team, she’d probably hate me after I whooped that azz. LOL
Like anything else, it all comes down to how genuinely people approach it. Of course some people are going to misrepresent themselves online, but then again — people do that in person (clubs/bars/etc) all the time, too.
One thing I do know is that if not for online dating, I would never have crossed paths with my fiance, so that makes it OK in my book. It really can be a good way to meet people who are outside your normal social circle — which can be a good thing sometimes.

Do your thang, Sue! Sounds like you guys are still in heavy flirtation. Yum. Wondering- do you have kids & will you tell them you met online? I have two recently engaged friends who fell in love online & have told very few the real meeting story. And they hope the scripted ones endure forever…
Usually a woman of my word, finally fulfilled a 3-4 yr old pact to try it. Yeah, shoulda kept stalling, just felt so unnatural. Plus I’m too colorful a character to translate well enough in such a flat medium.

Let’s settle this misnomer shall we, speaking only for myself here, just because you use online date sites does not exclude you from dating in a more traditional fashion. I’ve used them both and they have both worked for me.
As for my success rate with online dating. Hmmm, have I met any weirdo’s, YES. Have I met same said weirdo’s in common places like LA Fitness, Publix and Chevron, YES. Anyway you look at it, ultimately you’re dealing with people. If s/he’s deceitful, then thats just who they are. A liar in person is no different from a liar on the net.
If you post a picture of yourself as 6’4”, athletic, and bald and when we agree to meet in person, you’re 5’8”, average with a receding hairline, you’re a p****** liar dude, period.
To my point, you are responsible for doing your due diligence to weed out the crazys as best you can. I meet men at social events all the time who drum themselves up to be waay more “achieved” than they actually are. I consider this misrepresenting oneself.
At the end of the day, do you, what works for you. For me, its 2008 and I’m not limited in thought or process so if the internet works fantastic. I also don’t really care what other people think of how I met my SO. I think that keeps people off the net b/c they don’t want to have to answer when asked, “How’d you meet?”

Good morning Good People, do what you have to do to make it happen whether it be online, a personal ad or the good ol’ fashion way by chance or thru a 3rd party. I’ve utilize online dating and at first I was a little skeptical with posting myself (photo and profile)all out there in a room of strangers. The outcome was okay although there were no connections since most was out for the booty, I meet some really nice guys a few I still chat with from time to time. There was one guy that stood out the most, we corresponded via email for a month, we had some really interesting converstions, and a few things in common. He invited me to a bbq one weekend, I only had a head shot of him so I didn’t know what he really looked like just based on his picture he was nice looking, well truth be told he was a TROLL, the guy had sores and scabies on his hands and legs, he reaked of 5 day old liquor,he was disquisting. I tried to maintain from barfing while he offered me a plate of food and drinks. I left that bbq so fast like I was being chased by a skunk. That episode made me shut down my account and went back to doing things the ol’ fashion way. I can’t say I’ll never use onling again I just won’t for the time being. Fellas, women aren’t the only ones who use old pics to get attention online men do it too LOL, men lie about their height pumping themselves taller than they really are….if you’re 5’4 don’t say you’re 5’9 that is a LIE

Bit Honey there is a Stigma about saying you both met on the Net. But, that might be changing. I’m 26 working a lot, travelling, etc. Although, I’ve never ventured to meet a girl from an online site…I have to say, its way easier to contact people with a hectic schedule. I usually just meet girls through parties or whatever. I’ve met so many girls that are just not my type at bars. I’m the first to say I’m really picky though.

It seems like the online dating experience can be anything from one extreme to the next…I still think that there is too much unknown space for me…and I do believe that many ppl hype themselves up online in terms of their personalities and physical descriptions…but this is a new day and a new way of experiencing life…the future is now…but being a tale end baby boomer, I like the fact that I can choose to utilize old school or new school means and methods…it should be interesting in about anothr 10 years to see how much more prevalent the online scene is for making matches…

SAM, I have met people from the computer before. So it’s not to say that I don’t. I did meet one person from match and it went well. I just wasn’t juiced to keep meeting person after person which is kind of the point. Like I said, the comfort level wasn’t there yet.

I can personally say that online dating does work. I met an incredible, caring, and funny guy right here on this very blog! We’re all still people hiding behind these privacy screens. As long as you’re honest and open to new things, it very well could work.
By Bit-O-Hunny
July 25, 2008 11:07 AM | Link to this
ATL Guy you’re exactly correct. There is a negative stigma, mainly tagged desperation, that comes with saying that you met your guy/girl via the net. I wish people would admit that thats more of the issue than the net itself. We do a lot of things, more private and personal things via the net than post our pictures and profile and no one takes issue with that.
I guess you just have to get to a point where your happiness means more than what someone else could possibly have to say about it. If your girl was on the other end of cyberspace would you hesitate to connect with her?
In other words, f*** people, they always got something to say. Most of which are miserable in their own lives anyway. I know more people are curious about internet dating than will ever admit it. There are probably people on this blog with enigma accounts just to send out feelers. People are so funny.

I’ve tried internet “dating”, and that is the most common issue I’ve heard expressed—many people use photos that were taken when they were 10 years younger or 50 pounds lighter.
For various reasons, I decided it’s just not where it’s at for me; more power to those who choose that route.

Other than my blog family here. I’ve never done the online dating thing. A couple of people I know did it without any good results. Both did however end up marrying someone, but the old fashioned way. One we’ll call ‘Vicki’ was introduced to her future husband by a mutual friend. The second we’ll call ‘Betty Boop’, met her husband at a gas station after they both had been on dates with other people that night. ‘Vickie’ was the type that got emotionally attached easily via online through chat rooms. I really couldn’t understand it since they never actually went on dates.

Binford is on eHarmony and has had a positive experience.
I’ve dated a few girls I have met on there. For the most part, they have the same problem finding people because of their work and schedules that I do.
The only problem sometimes is that people expect a “wow” factor when they meet in person. When you have been talking to someone for a month and have been conversing for a while, it takes away from the initial meeting.
Binford cranks up the TOTO in hopes of a good weekend.

You guys been dating for a year! Are you living together? More importantly, will you have ownership in this business? How do you feel about drawing up a promissory note? Wait, you said you don’t have it like that so don’t worry. If your gut tells you this is inappropriate, then it is. Whatever you do, do not co-sign. I know I shouldn’t tell you what to do, but do not co-sign!

I thought that the angle of comparision/contrast not only between the two brothers from Little Rock, but also between two actual brother brothers was right on…it allowed for an analysis of nature vs. nuture, as well as individual accountability for choices…and too, it did not escape my notice that the two brothers who faired well were, of course, of a lighter complexion…not that this was a negative reflection on either of them…the same influence impacted the choices my father(the light skinned brother) who went to college and retired Deputy Chief of Police vs his brother(the darker skinned brother) who did 10 years for armed robbery in his youth…all in all, I really appreciated how the men were presented and how they presented themselves…

Apple if he has had to help you out why would he be asking you for money? Is he really asking you to repay him what he gave you in so many words? IMO It doesn’t make any sense.
And unless you are going to be an equal partner in the business you should not be giving someone you have only dated a year that kind of money. Even if you could afford it. And secondly you should not be giving someone you are just dating that kind of money without a legal repayment agreement signed by both of you.

Apple The answer is yes!! Unless he comes to you like he would any other investor and lays it out on the line that this is what I’m doing with the money blah blah blah. Don’t give him a dime. Ask him who else is putting up money. If he doesn’t say momma and nem or anyone else close to him, then you know definitely. But I wouldn’t do it on just because he was crazy enough to ask in the first place.

applehead My SO & I have been together about a year now, he’s trying to start his own business, well he asks me have I been saving my money… He says he needs $10,000 & was wondering how much could I come up with. I personally think this is inapproprate, first we are not married & also he knows I dont have it going on like that, he’s had to donate to me a few times. AM I wrong in thinking this was inappropraite?
Tell that dude to beat it and that the relationship is off. Make sure to be very clear about how he doesn’t deserve a broad like you - one that he can donate to on a few occasions, and whom when called upon for a little asssistance, can only manage to deliver a gas face. B!tchiz…
On Topic: On-line dating is just another rod in the fishing well. Even though you’re sure to pull up more throwbacks than keepers, you’ve got to keep that hook baited and ready for the set.

@ Blue Kolla Well, I would not ask any man for that kind of money without some well established understanding…I have a friend of mine here in the VA that not only afforded me a reasonable place to live in his house (I do pay rent), but he also loaned my a grand to get some things on the table that I needed to have for my own small business…anyhoo, we signed a contract agreement on how much I am to repay him by the month on the loan and what would happen if I defaulted on the agreement…I would not take the money any other way…no, he does not need me to repay the loan, nor to pay him the rent…but I like holding on to my own and keeping it real…I appreciate the faith he invested in me…and our respect and trust for each other as ppl has grown…he knows that my integrity is absolute and that my word is my bond…that is a beautiful thing.

Good Afternoon Blog Fam!
Somewhat on-topic - What is the measure of success for online dating? The comments about online dating success seem to stop at 2nd or 3rd dates, a phase of good sex, etc. Should that be considered our standard for a successful online dating experience? Online dating is big business for the site owners, but many people still seem to experience a lack of fulfillment when the dust settles.
Online dating is a good tool for those who are shy and need an environment to meet people. Online dating allows you to query a lot of individuals very quickly, but you still have to deal with the ‘real’ person. If a person has issues, then a perfectly written online profile will not protect them from those issues being exposed :).
Has anyone had any safety issues from their online dating experience?

Aight well let me just tell you then. If we’re living like we’re in it to win it (meaning I’ve already considered wifing this chick up) and trying to build for us, and the cash is flowing from me to her when she’s in need, then when I’m in need, especially for something that’s going to benefit us, then she better be passing over that money sack.
And to answer your question, she’s going to get whatever I can stand, if I’m satisfied with the business plan and the outlook. I’m not about to just throw some bread out on just any old flim-flam.
Ain’t like I’m blowing the 10 grand on some new bike or something.

KP - Not winding up chopped to pieces in someone’s freezer works for me! LOL. It’s like shopping for a car via net. You are countin on a lot of honesty from the other person. And it’s a lot more likely you’d wind up with a lemon!
As for real success, it depends on what you’re looking for. If you are looking to get back into the dating world and this puts you back out there, that’s success.
If you only look at things as success or failure, then yes, you’ve failed in all relationships until you are married, but you can still have a good relationship that didn’t end in marriage that you wouldn’t call a failure, per se.

Apple be sure to go on Judge Judy once you passed your honey the money if you can’t recover but not Judge Mathis. As sure as the sky is blue, he’ll switch sides at the drop of a dime. He’s swayed too easily to be a judge and oftentimes gets his own feelings involved. A man/woman he presiding over is as shady as heck but attempts to redeem their character or change his mind, all they have to say is something like I’m a recovering crackhead but in back in school, he/she get’s a pass everytime. With him you never know. You can be winning before the commercial break, come back the verdict is going the other way. As long as you have something legally drawn or can convince it was a loan not a gift, you’ll get it back with her presiding. You get a lecture and a good slap on the backside for being old enough to know better, but retribution in the end.

MsM, I think many women feel they have more in common with white collar workers. I’ve always worked in that industry, and that’s how I meet people. I worked at a stadium where there were both white and blue collar workers. While I don’t date on the job, I would have dated either one. I did find that the blue collar workers made inappropriate comments and sexual advances. Not always overt, but sometimes so.

Melo: Not delusional. 45 & 51, married 20+, careers 25+ raised children. Neither of us had problems meeting others the “regular” way, we just happened to click with each other. It doesn’t matter where you meet, what matters it what happens afterwards. Both recognize the other early on, and we’re old enough to know BS when we hear it, see it and smell it, we don’t have to taste it! We’ve been together 2 years. Life is not absolute, but you get some pretty good indicators (or flags) along the way.
Amazon: I’m a 20+ year “white collar” professional. Believe me just because a man is “white collar” does not excluded them from being complete jacka** some have a sense of entitlement because we (some) women run after them like they’re “HOT COMMODITIES” I agree with you, and it applies to both sides.
Two weeks ago a “white collar” walked up behind me a took a bite for my behind, I felt his breath on my right butt cheek, how inappropriate is that.
For me the collar doesn’t matter, the person does… I asked the question because I have friends that are only turned on by “white collar” literally, will barely speak to others and I think they pass up some really decent men.

Rell - Again, PF Changs is opening your wallet? A meal there would actually put a hurting on you?
But to answer your question, his attitude doesn’t work for me because he acts like PF Changes would have to be “earned.” I don’t operate that way. I eat at Subway, I also eat at the best restaurants in town. When we go out on MY dime (and yes, I’ve paid for dates at nice restaurants/activities) I’m not sitting up there wondering what you’ve earned in the time we’ve spent together. That’s such a juvenile way to behave. If you take the time to know the person you go out with BEFORE the date, then you don’t worry about whether he or she is worthy of Subway or better. And hey, if you made an error in judgement and someone is out just for a meal, what is the big deal that you dropped $50 on dinner. Big deal. Tighten the screening process then.

women dont like when men make them step up and do more than play dress up an lay on there backs
I don’t know what the hell you are talking about with this.

Again, you don’t know what you’re talking about. Selfish? How? I take care of the guys I’m dating and they also take care of me. It’s called respect. That’s hardly selfish.
You’re off in left field bro. I don’t even know why I waste time trying to explain to folks to clueless to understand. My bad.

mqew - There are certain types of men who will always have a problem with headstrong women who know who they are. Women with standards are a huge threat to men who operate in shaady ways.
Yeah, I have a jam packed weekend.

Does ARED look rough or something!? Rell said he hears she’s a model…then she denies it. Hmmmmm, everyone keeps questioning how she looks. Which, end of the spectrum is ARED!?

Ared And it’s hardly a money thing.
Ain’t that what I said?
This Rell and BK exchange is clearly the dumb leading the dumb.
…howwooooo….. howwoooo….
Blue: Yo WTF was that?!
Rell: Sh!t, I don’t know.
Blue: Man that janky sh!t sounded kinda like a hit dog.
Rell: But who’s out here hittin’ dogs though?!
Blue: I don’t know, but the mofo ain’t holla’n for nuttin’!
We’re all dialogueing but I see that you want to throw insults. :/ WTF is that about?

SueinDouglasville, your story is too funny because it’s similar to mine in many ways.
I’m a 45-year-old guy who had met several women in person who I’d met online (had some good dates and made a few friends but nothing serious), and then I met someone online who changed my life. :-)
I was contacted by a girl on Yahoo Personals. We wrote back and forth for a couple of months and got along really well, decided to meet in person and SERIOUSLY clicked (our first date ended with an hour of kissing in my car!), and we’ve also been together for 9 years (a year or so just dating, living together for three years, and married for five years this upcoming September).
My wife is almost 12 years younger than me, though, so we went the other way (too bad for me! :-)).

Just got back to my computer…first of all, you lack the intelligence to know what I think…typical of an otay…secondly, you do not know my major or my background, which blantantly contradicts your ignorance…in fact, if you checked out a blog post from the other day…my comments again contradict your ignorance…we of the non-white experience are not concerned with the collective voice of the self-imposed mainstream…I advocate for all marginalized voices and white folks ain’t one of them voices…nuff said.
