has any one ever seem to think that dating site's is a way to meeting some one?Has any one had any luck?

Well i been to plentyoffish all i seen was people who have been through rough relationship's and dose not seem to let go of there past.

some are to picky or to jusgemental or in to fancy stuff,dining out ect but what i noticed in my past is that most people ten to forget what life is all about or what the meaning of true love is now day's it's just sex with out making love or it has to do with money or even what you look like .

But i went to this site to see if there's any change's from plentyoffish and i noticed there not much differnt but we all take are chance's dont we.

What's amazing is that i went on the web to look at the top ten worst dating sites and on the list was plentyoffish what i seen was that so many people had no luck and had there say how they where treated by other's.

i thought this woud be a good topic any how.

I've met 9 people from dating sites, and 8 of them were at the top of the list of worst train wrecks imaginable.

The lesson I've learned is that I will never meet a decent, compatible person on a dating site -- at least, not on any dating site I've tried thus far. It may be that a site exists where there are living, breathing intelligent people who really do wish to meet others, to communicate, to get to know someone, and to interact in a meaningful way. But I haven't seen it yet. All I've seen is site after site full of illiterate cardboard cutouts pretending to be real people.

I guess I'm fortunate in that I have been able to find other avenues.

And one of my train wrecks WAS from POF. The less said about that, the better.

I think you can meet someone off of a dating site. I have met some really cool people on this site but there is this one guy I can't wait to meet in person when I move to AZ in June. He is awesome and I care deeply about him.smooched

But I do agree about other sites, not much luck before...always met the guys that were crazy or physco.mad

I have met many wonderful women through other sites ... new to this one. Made some really great lasting friends too through it. Heck everyone has baggage of some sort. To expect otherwise is to live a fantasy. You don't get though life without picking up some baggage ... unless you are living in a cave your whole life alone or are comatose.

I think people just put up a fake image sometimes, well guys from what I am told, and there is no faking long term so just be real and pass on those who are not.

If you are confident, secure, and enjoy life and people I think it makes you attractive to the ones who may be right for you. Respect and treat others as you want for yourself in return and you cannot got wrong ... In my humble opinion anyway...LOL

ill have to disagree as the differience in the sites. It's all in what your looking for and who you may be attract to. The chances are if someone is looking for the nice bod etc etc and that goes for Men/Women and not looking on the inside. Most likely your not going to find what your looking for.

Have i had luck. Yes and thats because i'm real and being that way tends to keep the players away. Yeah some of us are looking for that special one and it will happen but not on our time.When it's ment to happen it will happen. I stop looking so hard and started to just enjoying the friends i have on here and that alone is the BIG differience between this site and and the other. You will find more real people that are honest with themselvs then any other site that i know of. Stick around because you wont be able to see that unless you actually spend some time on here. Hmm for those who think just spending a little time on anysite and think there is nothing out there. Give it time because nothing comes that easy in this world...

good for you at least you found your mate its so hard i know i been on a few dates my self in the past three years it always seems to be a free dinner and dont talk again i just dont understand it but i had my share of people but i have not given up.

i just dont understand why some people say there interested and talk and then as soon as u spend all this money on them they dont talk to u again or some just say im not interested any more but its not all women who do this and i know that i even had some who ask me how long i was married so i tell them and i dont get a reply thats weird ha .
