I suppose it depends on the type of person you are as to whether it works or not. Personally I couldn't do online dating of either sort. I just don't have the ability to get attached to someone via words on a screen for a start. Nor do I find looking for a date in the same manner as looking for a job appealing (with regard to the matchmaker sites). |

I had a lot of online-only gfs when I was way younger. I had generally negative experiences with them in terms of heart-breaks.
While it's probably true that online-only or mainly online relationships could and do work out when the two people are mature and patient, I'd say it's always gonna be trickier than IRL/face to face relationships. When your emotions and stability is on the line, I don't think it's really a risk worth taking. Just use the internet to find people, but don't tie your heart up on a string for months/years waiting to meet them unless you're just friends. Again, not to deny people who've had success, just to point out the relative dangers from my POV. Relationships are very intimate and detailed, and having any kind of separation can create difficulties. |

Mmmm~ I'm not up for it. Sorry to say but I find the whole idea of dating sites and online partners... kind of seedy. I mean, not to offend anyone in one or who started a relationship like that, but I honestly can't see how it works. I have friends who I only know online, but to go further than that just seems irrational. I can't say I really know someone unless there's face-to-face contact, and even then real friendships and relationships take time and commitment.
So yeah, I'm sure for some people it works out beautifully, but i'd rather hedge my bets and stick to meeting actual people, rather than their online projections. |

my opinon about online dating would be its good sometimes and it can be an experience of a lifetime.
i've had a few online relationsships one actually lasted a year and a half but it couldnt work cause we rarley got to see each other all in all... once...heh its true that you dont know if the guy is psycho but usually there are ways to check...sometimes. you should definantly be in a place where you can meet the person IN PERSON that way you know everything for yourself for sure ^_^ and it definantly sucks when you have no personal contact with a person you really wanna be with |
