I was too shy... but hey that's how I am.

    Maybe I'll try eharmony.com because match.com is stupid

    I'm gonna smoke a bowl and try to forget tonight.

        A better idea than meeting her straight away would have been to talk to her more online or on the phone. Get to know someone a little bit before you throw yourselves into a meeting where you have so much to talk about that you don't know what to talk about. You would find the chemistry if it was there in a way where you didnt have to be shy. Just my opinion anyway. ..

            My wife and I met over the internet. That was back in 1995 - 96. At that time, it was still considered a kind of weird way to get a date. She's from Michigan, USA and I'm from Bergen, Norway. She was in the States and I was over here. For months, we just talked on the net and on the phone and sent letters and e-mails back and forth. Then I went over to meet her in the summer of 1996. People thought I was kind of crazy to travel that far to spend the summer with someone I'd never met before. I guess maybe it was, but I did it anyway. She brought a friend to the airport when she came to pick me up. Fair enough, I guess. Anyway, things worked fine for us and we've been married since the summer of '99.

            I made some mistakes during the first couple of years of our long-distance relationship and we paid for it during the first year we lived together, as she inevitably discovered that I wasn't all the things she had come to expect. We lived through it, but the lesson is clear: Be honest! Always. Don't ever try to give the impression of being someone you're not, 'cause it will be discovered at some point, and trust me, it's not worth it! If there's something you're not proud of, the best thing you can do is to come clean right away and get to work on improving it.

            Women will forgive you for not being perfect - if you're honest about it!

              Well it's not just that - the chemistry of two people online could be completely different to IRL...

                Maybe she logged on and read Heresson's post before she left for the pub.

                  Yep. This is true. And I guess we experienced a tad of that as well. In our case, it was nothing that couldn't be overcome though.

                      Online dating is next to impossible.

                      I'm dating a guy named Jake.. he and I met at an art gallery nearby. We just chatted, and went out for a coffee.. I kinda picked up he was gay... as he did me.

                      You need to find someone in real life, because more often then not, online dating doesn't work.
                      For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                        Tell me that if you are with Jake in 4 years, of course by then me and the Mrs. will be together for 8.

                        ACK!

                          Why is that relevant?

                            I actually know several couples who met on the internet. It sounds a bit strange at first but when you really think about it the internet is a good place to meet new people who enjoy the same things you do.
