Maybe it’s because I grew up in an era where people just “hooked up” by meeting in person all the time.
I created a couple profiles but I might take them down due to paranoia. Have any of you had any luck with online dating? If so do you disclose your illness fairly soon?
I never had any luck on them, few e mails back and forth but that was about it, I never tried very hard though, gave up dating all together years ago, to me it just not worth all the drama and stuff.
Only for the week I was in between my ex and my current hubby, and this was only because ok cupid (Prior account made to use their tests/quizzes) made it easy to answer their questionaire and submit.
Honestly, yes, I was curious how much response I’d get, but I was made it very clear I wasn’t interested in any kind of a relationship.
It was really sad how many guys came up with ways to be pathetic.
Creeped me out to say the least, so I never responded to them.
For me, the interesting ones (I read both guys and girls just out of curiosity) were the ones that explained a bit about themselves, but not revealed too much.
Leave a little bit to discover for later, but let that be a good thing to discover.
Think benign. Neutral even.
Don’t expect too much, from yourself or them, just relax and keep things light.
Impress with an open mind and willingness to wait for the natural progression of a relationship.
Boy if this don’t make me sound ancient, not sure any of this will help anyone.
I met my husband online. I am a very weird person, and he is a very weird person. The odds of us meeting anyone naturally were very low. Filling out a questionnaire and being matched was definitely the way to go for us. I told him on the third date. We used OkCupid.
