I've been asking people the differences between them... I'm trying to develop more ideas to write another article about the two same, but different ideas... Tell me your experiences between the two... Which do you prefer? Which is easier to find a date? Which is easier to be duped? Which do you think is better for long term?

Any success stories online that you're willing to share?

Don't really have a success story. I got like a dozen dates from online, but nothing that lasted more than a few months

Any major reason that you see after dozens of dates why none last more then a few months? Mostly local or Long distance or?

Not dozens, like 1 dozen. Most girls I date even offline I don't stick with more than a few months. That's the point of dating, meet people find out their good and bad traits, and if the bad traits are too much date someone new.

I know people who met online and married after.
I think for shy people is easier to start a relationship online. Also, you can meet people from all over the world.
So, I vote for online dating.

i met my man online more than a year ago now and we are still together, he answered one of my adds, we met and hit it off straight away, i had met guys off the internet before but never felt they were the one, but when i met this guy i knew straight away he was the one.

hmmm.. internet dating?? I used to think it was for losers apparently, i became a loser myself. I started looking for dates over the net and stumbled across a site, (spam site).com. it was fweird cause i saw funny looking dudes there but the next thing i know.. picture of hot chicks and I mean fuckin HOT chicks and i was "no way that can't be real!" Had a couple of dates and proved how true it was...

OMG! I'm also at (stupid spam site).com! I did it for kicks, but I never expected that my flirting with this guy could turn into something serious. Being rich was only plus, but he is really down to earth. It is definitely luxury all the way. He's looking into private islands and he might just buy me one.

whatever happened to going out and earning your own money, then you can say you have supported yourself and be proud of yourself not sponge off of someone else.
i earn my own money everyday.

Which do you prefer? Online. This is of course because I can't meet "appealing" men around here.

Which is easier to find a date? Online, of course. People around here are too into their own worlds...

Which is easier to be duped? Online, of course. It's easier to lie about who you are, what you look like. I'm 100% honest though. I just won't tell you EVERYTHING. That's stupid.

Which do you think is better for long term?Neither! Both!

I haven't had any success stories. Online or RL. Most of us are single for a reason!

I'm sure some people have met through - EHARMONY - a widely advertised internet "find the love of your life" site. BUYER BEWARE!!

But I've discovered through personal experience and further research that they're business practices are fraudulent. Their customer service is un-professional, vague and just plain bad!

Eharmony has over 500 complaints through the Better Business Bureau (909) 825-7280 for UN-authorized debit and credit card charges. Even though you check off the little box that says "DO NOT AUTO-RENEW", and you have no intention of continuing on, your credit or debit card will still be charged and you will not receive your money back. Your decision is taken out of your hands and they charge your account anyway. It doesn't matter which box you check, they still charge your debit/credit card.

If this is your case, contact the
Federal Trade Commission, 1-(877) 382-4357 and the
State Attorney Generals Office 1 (800) 952-5225

I found this girl online and we started talking. She asked for my phone number so I gave it to her. After countless calls and five minute messages I had to block her phone number, and then came the calls from other phones. To say the least, I didn’t think online dating was for me. I started again a couple of weeks ago after I found this website that gives you a free phone number and you can have your calls forwarded from the free number they give you. I was skeptical at first but they give you like 60 free minutes, the site is matchdigits.com, hope it helps you avoid my situation.

I believe that the best relantionships are the online ones because there aren't any strings attached and you can get out of a relationship easier and with less pain.
