Default Anyone meet someone thru online dating service?

just was wondering if anyone has meet someone on a online dating service or posting sight. curious to hear some stories if maybe someone met their match or had some great encounters through sites on the internet.

for some reason i went onto craigslist and was reading some of the ads on there for people trying to meet and alot of it seems like BS to me or scams of some sort. thought it would be cool to hear what others have to say.

Stay away from Craigslist. Most of the women on there are prostitutes, acting like women wanting to "meet a man". Yeah, they want to meet you, do you, and get paid.

But I know plenty of people who met online and are in great relationships. The internet is just another way to meet people, it's no different than meeting in a bar, store, etc.

Some very good friends of ours met on-line. It precipitated their later in-person meeting described in this article: http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniont..._1c16wowm.html It was a fun wedding!

I actually met my wife online but not through these dating services. I used to hang in chat rooms a long time ago and we started doing private messages after a while. She sent me a pic and she was hot too so I hung in there. We dated for like 7 years before we got married.

If you are meeting chicks online, there is a pretty good chance they are like 300 pounds.

Likewise. I met my wife on MSN Chat in January 1997. The big problem was I was in London, she was in FL. Anyway, I proposed in the middle of 1997 and we married in 1998, I got my "green" card at the end of 1999 and here we are 9 years on with a happy little family; 19 year old daughter, 17 year old son and a 5 year old daughter. Can you guess which one is mine?
There...

Yea I was on there as well, seeing what the different areas had. I noticed the same pictures in alot of them so I knew something was fishy

Well, just prior to that I had met another that was 400 lbs if she was an ounce. One of the first pics I saw of her was her licking her own titty. That pretty much ended it.

I did not think Myspace was that old?! anyway I think meeting someone online is a 50/50 shot IMO.

Years ago i had met a college girl in a chat room and we exchanged emails and she sent me a picture. she was not bad looking if it was her. but the picture had her and a friend in the picture and the friend was hot looking, so i started chatting with her as well. they wanted me to drive down to penn state to hang out with them i think it could have very well been a good time for me had i gone, but did not can you say 3 some...

+1 & +1.... I thought myspace has only been around for like 5 or 6 years, but I could be wrong...

In any case, I know 3 couples who've met on the net

Couple 1 - Met via eHarmony. They are married now. They are indeed different... um... sizes. They just don't seem happy to me. It's kind of depressing... but, that's not to blame eHarmony... I see all sorts of married couples like this, unfortunately.

Couple 2 - Met via match.com. Been b/g & g/f for about 6 or 7 years. They seem happy enough.

Couple 3 - Met through myspace. Guy moved her from where he lived. They've broken up 4 times, with the 4th being the "final" time... yeah right.

So, it's almost like meeting any other way, I guess.
