    I don't think I'll be far behind you. I'm far too naive and trusting online, and there are far too many crazy people out there. More power to those with the stomach for it. Think I'd rather choose to be alone...

    I am probably close behind as I just can't get past the point of messaging on the site. I finally gave a guy my number on POF and haven't heard anything since then.

    FYI I have reached out to guys first also so it isn't me being passive and waiting for them to come to me. I am just getting a lot more "wants to meet" then actually messages lately. Probably close to a 7 to 2 ratio.

    Nah, I didnt' meet anyone on there. I got tired of sending out messages and no responses.. The ones that did respond, we would meet up but nothing came out of it.. not that i'm rushing to jump into a relationship or anything.. i just find it a waste of time (my opinion). I started treating Okcupid and Plenty of Fish like it was Facebook.

    I met my ex husband, my ex-fiance, and some great friends online. My ex-fiance was a wonderful guy. I just wasn't ready for marriage and got cold feet! My ex-husband... well, he's an a-hole, but you win some, you lose some... lol

    LOL.. my friends call it OKStupid because that's usually the kind of folks we meet on there. Think about it -- they are free sites. If you don't have to pay, you aren't going to take it seriously. Most people on there just go on to waste time, see if the grass is greener (just my experience there) and a total waste of space. I went on a date with a guy I had been talking to for weeks and he looked nothing like his photo, was quite dull and it was like pulling teeth to get him to speak. =( I feel your pain, I feel like giving up as well. My problem is I find guys who I fall in love with who don't love me back in a romantic way or vice versa.

    Good luck everyone.

    I'm wishing I were ready to delete. I suspect that the self loathing that I was sometimes satiating with food is now being played out via tortuous online date shopping . Yuck.

    Good for you, OP. On-line dating is crap, and should be avoided at all costs.

    Get out and meet people. Join a club, a volleyball team, get active within your community, etc.

    The time you spend staring at a bunch of losers on-line can be put to more productive endeavors.

    Good luck,

    I finally did it! I shut down POF and Match... waste of time and money. I don't believe it's the right way to meet someone (for me). Men do not give women like me a chance online. It's just the reality I needed to face. While I'm a little hurt by reality, I am SO glad to be done with it. The freaks can find someone else to harass!!
