I haven't used one and don't intend to either after what happened to my friend. She meet a guy on a dating site and they hit it off. He was a very good looking man and they decided to meet in person at a diner. My friend was scared to go alone so I followed her there in my vehicle. He said he would be driving a red truck and would be wearing a denim shirt and jeans. We waited in the parking lot and a few minutes later, the red truck pulled in. A very large, elderly and bald man emerged from the truck. To make a long story short: He had used a very young picture for his profile and needless to say, my girlfriend and I left.
Deception indeed. Did he think she wasn't going to notice the difference?Ahh the deception as well. Wise move to leave![]()

I reckon forums is where the attraction is or can be.
I think this is where you find banter, common ground and learn about people. I prefer the no pressure basis. That way it could happen naturally. Nothing forced.
She was "supposed to be made of better stuff than that" and not be so "superficial" to care about his looks, his age, and his deceptions.Deception indeed. Did he think she wasn't going to notice the difference?![]()
Yeah, met my partner through an online personal ad.
Sure some people have bad experiences but that doesn't mean it's going to happen to you every single time. Not everyone who uses the online dating method is a weirdo or a liar. Decent regular folk use it too. It's hard to meet new people in the real world.
Thats good you found someone and didn't have to deal with the apps. I hear they can be stressful.Luckily for me, I met my wife before online dating was a thing. I have no idea how I would handle things now-a-days. I’m a really shy person in day-to-day life. Every girl I’ve ever talked to has approached me and has also been older than me as well. I like older women. My wife is only three years older than me though, so not too bad.
