Watchpretty much how all internet dates go down
back on match...?
pocketfulofhope:
ahhh, i reactivated my profile just to look - i still have 1.5 months left before my membership runs out. i’m still iffy about the whole thing though, i’m sooo big on physical chemisty. i am overwhelmed by emails and winks, but underwhelmed by the guys that they come from. i outright judge them based on their photos (of course), grammar usage, perceived values, taste in music,...

My Guide to Match.com Dating
christinahaberkern:
Sure, I’m single and am no means an expert, but I have had a Match.com account on and off for two years now, and have been on a TON of dates from the site….some DREADFUL. Learn from my mistakes: • Pick good photos: Let’s face it, no one is going to read your profile unless you hook them in with a good photo first. Guys, this means stand out from the typical “guy profile”. The...

Lindsay Lohan did something funny and cool…and I directed it!
Keep an eye out for Lohan. She would be great for internet dating… Highly unstable, relationships with men and women, prior DUI/drug charges, multiple stints in rehab, prone to emotional outburts. This is just another day in internet dating.

Can it really work, or are you destined for failure?

“And under any circumstances will you NOT say, “I’ll facebook you.” If you say that I will facebook your FACE.”
This shit happens on way too many Internet dates, I’m sure. People are so tied to technology that they can’t break from it all once they meet the person face to face. kudos to the girl for putting it out there.

The Onion on Online Dating
They might be on to something here…
This IS internet dating.
“So I met this girl a while back, We started with the basic message back and forth and then moved to the IM after a few days. About a week in, she was pushing for phone conversation. After a few days of talking on the phone, I get home from work and she insists we hang out. I figured it was all cool. We seemed to get along alright.
I head out for the approx 30 minute drive to the other side...
The old "sister switcharoo"
“I emailed a lady who I was interested in. She refused to meet me for awhile and when we finally met I discovered why. She posted an old pic of her younger sister who was 6 years younger, 5 inches taller and 60 pounds lighter. I still had lunch with her and when I question the use of her sister’s pic she said that she thought that they looked enough alike and that I should “get over it”! I...
At least he's clean and sober!
“Went on first date with a guy, met at the bowling alley. First thing he says is how his arms used to be bigger but he doesn’t lift weights now cuz he hurt his elbow. He can’t hear me when I speak in a normal voice. I talk louder..he continues talking..then tells me he has injured his ear so he can’t hear well. OK, so, why would someone 1) go on a BOWLING date when their...
Whipping it out
“I met a guy over the past couple of weeks and yesterday we decided to meet. We both live in Edmonton but at opposite ends so we meet at a Tim Horton’s halfway. He is really nice, Itallian, cute he is really into me I can tell because after ten minutes he is holding my hand on the table and after an hour gives me a little kiss. So we talk for a couple of hours and then decide to go for...
Wow... P in her V
“About a year ago, I met Oscar while I was giving a speech at this program I had completed a few months earlier. I felt really frumpy that day, and I couldn’t show any cleavage (obviously), so I wasn’t even thinking of attracting anyone. At the bus stop, he stopped me and “spit his game” (his words). He wasn’t really my type - gangsta, pants below his waist,...
Problem #1: Dave and Busters
“One of the suckiest dates I had, it went a little something like this….We decided to meet at Dave and Busters for a little video game action (after all they do have Police 911), some food and a drink or two. Well, we were set to meet at 6 and when I showed up at 6pm, he was sitting at the bar, already eating. To preface this date, we spoke for about a week and a half, seemed pretty...
Something New
To go along with the rest of Tumblr and its love for GPOYW’s I am going to start a GPOWW (gratuitous profile of a weirdo Wednesday)
I am going to search the internet for a really weird profile, whether it be picture or description…or both. If you guys find anything please feel free to email me the link. Thanks and hope you guys are enjoying the site.
Never make out in the dark
“We met in January. Started through messages here. Quickly it progressed to personal email, then to the telephone. She was a writer, and an excellent one. I’ll get to the reason later. Anyway, we had our first date. A night of excellent conversation and drinks, and a bit of groping and making out in the dark, which ended with us sleeping quite cozily. Then things start to get wierd....
Guy responds to girls date rant
“You’ve probably read it. It’s gotten a lot of hits right now. As the unbelievable jerk I wanted to take time to write a thread that basically tells my end of it. A size 0 girl is not ideal for me. I took down my previous profile because I was deceived and feeling bitter and jaded about meeting women online. Before we met, she said she was average. When we did meet she was...
Don't sex on the first date
“I’ve met some jerks in my life, but this one has been by far the worst. I’ll start off by saying how I noticed a lot of men on dating websites complain about not getting messages. Therefore, I decided to take it upon myself to message men in my area who I found interesting. This one in particular was creative, intelligent and handsome…or so his profile led me to believe....
Steak and Shake... nice
“So, I’ve been on afew dates from the internet, afew friends made, and some of the most embarrassing nights of my life, almost makes me worried about dating again!! This one night, this cute cute Kid from here kept messaging me, he was demanding, but sweet, and I decided since I had no plans, to meet up with him for dinner and a Movie. (Cliche? and at steak and shake too?) Well, he...
How to creep a girl out on your first sentence
“You remind me of someone I once knew when I was very young, a girl in my neighborhood. Every summer I’d see her down at the pool. We’d swim and talk and play. We were only 10 or so. She had a crush on me, so they said, and I totally did of her, too. But again, we were only 10. Nothing made me happier than to go swim in the pool all day long there, thinking of her if she...
Oh, Craigslist
“Let me preface this true tale by saying that this was my first and quite definitely last “date” made through Craigslist. Beware.
I had been browsing a number of personals sites looking for something not too serious, and I came across an ad from a man looking to “explore LA restaurants” with a woman as “just friends.” “I don’t pay for you,...
Must not have been Jewish
I met a guy online that was about 2 hours away from me, but in a city i visit relatively often or at least drive through. We talked for a good while and he seemed like a pretty cool guy. So the next time i had plans to drive down i told him about it and we decided to hang out. So I had never had Pho before and he thought i’d like it, we go and sit down at the place and one of the first...
The internets makes you want to lock your doors at...
“It all started when he messaged me regarding information on my profile. It was mildly exciting, at least. We talked for a while, and eventually decided to meet. Things were pretty fantastic, he was nice, well mannered, and looked exactly like his picture. As time progressed he started complaining about me, as a whole. Which to me, generally indicates that we’re probably not going any...
This one comes from Christina who also joined match.com with high hopes. They were immediately smashed to smithereens by this lovely gem of a guy. I enjoy the doggystyle bits; Classy.
You’re a pretty hot little nerd. Ayway, i’ts late so I’ll just wrapp this up quick. I’ve started to get bored againg latley. Nothing to do. I’m unemployed, not a lot of cash, no women in my life that i like all...
