has anyone had any dates from dating websites that were just horrible?
I'm at a loss at where to find a normal person to date.
all the dates i've been on were super awkward or it was obvious they were interested in one thing. :expressionless:

    I've had one particularly terrible date with a man I met online and another that went well enough to be with him 4 years later.

    You're on a dating site right now

    People date here? I thought this was a place for noodz and hookups?

    It is. But married people like to call it dating to feel better about themselves

    Ah, got it. I'm not married, probably why I wasn't informed of the "official" name.

    You're missing out. You should get married, so you can date here

    What if I "date" a married person. Does that count?

    Only if they don't like their wives.

    Dates had the real potential for going bad long before internet.

    I'm starting to think that cultures that shun dating in favor of arranged marriages or close supervision and chaperoning of men and women who are "dating" have the right idea after all.

    I agree with it, as long as you're mutually able; to choose whom, there's no force to marry, basically you're able to keep all of your fundamental rights!

    I actually looked into it, prior to engaging & not just browsing, upon the dating websites but unless you're via a culture, that traditionally does it and/or're willing to convert, to their religion; it wasn't an option!

    I would be against online dating but I did find my bf there.... It took a while though. Just get a dog and take him everywhere until he wingmans a hottie your way.
