Anyone try online dating sites?

[Zer0xray]

I broke up w my girlfriend back in Nov and looking to get out there. However, I feel its hard to meet new people as I work all the time and not really looking for girls at bars (no offense to anybody).
So anyone try online dating sites? i'm looking to meet a nice chinese girl. lol.

I have but it's a meat market, if you post your real photo and you're not pretty nice looking no women will answer you. Unless you're standards are really super low I guess (yes I know i'm saying a double standard but still, it's not even and not even close in regards to ballpark).

if you post your real photo

I've never used a dating site (happily married) but i do wonder how many of the photos both women and men use for their profile pics are actually real, untouched pics?

I tried to join eHarmony once, but they declined my application.

I also found my old "Speed Dating" tape. I got a few responses from it, so maybe you should go that route.

I actually met my wife through Match.com. I guess I had great luck on there since I'd only been on a couple of dates through match, before I met my wife. Although one was with a girl that had posted a picture of herself from a few years back and was quite a bit bigger, so that wasn't a success, nice girl just didn't look like her picture.

My wife had gone out with over 30 guys on there and had tons of horror stories about how the picture of people just weren't accurate for many. There was one guy that she showed up to meet and he just didn't look at all like his picture, he was about 20 years older and 50+ lbs. heavier, so just straight up said what he was doing was dishonest, and he was a prick for wasting her time and walked out. lol, wish I could have been there for that one.

We know about 5 other couples that have met this way and gotten married, only one have been divorced at this point, so I guess that's not bad #'s.

I used an online dating site for awhile. I had a tough time meeting people as im not a bar rat or super outgoing person. It felt weird at first to use an online dating site, but its more accepted now and for me, i met my wife through the site about 3.5 years ago. Dont believe all the nonsense that people throw out there.

Re: Anyone try online dating sites?

Sounds like a good success rate here... two people married their wives after meeting online. Pretty cool -- I'm a fan of anything that keeps people from meeting their future partners after a night of desperation and bad decisions at a bar, because that normally does not turn out well for anyone involved. If I end up breaking up with my girlfriend, I'd probably go this route as I'm not a bar/club kind of guy either.

Re: Anyone try online dating sites?

My cousin met his ex-wife online. So I guess it sort of worked.
