Internet dating

**rustic101** · 2nd June 2010, 21:55

I have tried NZ Dating twice in as many years.

Granted I'm not the most attractive of guys - In fact its sometimes said I have a beautiful voice for radio.

However in my experiences I have met some absolute nut bars, stalkers and plain mental retards. In one it was a guy pretending to be a female!!! I mean WTF is with that?? If I was after a crossdresser or guy who wanted to pretend to be one I would have put it in my profile.

Just on that; why I bothered to even write profile content I will never know, as no one ever read the bloody thing and asked stupid questions to which the answers were already listed.

IMO I'll stick to wanking - Less dramas, cleaner and much safer and a shit load cheaper.

Hmmm .... yes once upon a time ago I put a profile thingy on NZD.

Didnt get much of a response. Anyone tell me why?

"Short arse....smoke like a chimney...drink like a fish...ride a tractor for fun....dont suffer fools....dont contact me if you live at home with your parents"

I thought I sounded irresistable

when i was young (

) and traveled a lot for work i used to chat with girls on icq, searching for people on the place i was going to.
nothing more than a coffee anyway.

i've always felt strange about meeting people on the net, 'cause i think everybody is a bit "false" behind a keyboard, and it would be difficult to really understand who are you talking with.
anyway a friend of mine had met his previous gf on a site like those, and they were a couple for years, then he had an epistolar (epistular?? well, "written"...) relation with the girl who is actually his wife... so, it could work...

i've met my wife on a seasonal job, and just accepted the possibility because of the seasonal kind. never marry a colleague: you'll end up to work all day to finally go home to talk of work...
if you need to meet people try to go out and not stop your life in front of a pc: subscribe a cooking course, a painting course, go to the gym, go to surf, make thing you like.
it's the best way to meet people with your same passions and you can get a good tan too...

My brother met his 2nd wife online,he said it felt better when meeting for the first time as they both knew each other pretty well,rather than the small talk(re do ya fuck on first date)scenario in the pub etc.

After my marriage went,the tried and true party n pub was fun,but the internet(didn't have computer)wasn't much in 97.Seems much easier now,but man I had fun sussing out the girls,beer was the great equalizer lol.

I think whatever floats ya boat,had a prick of a mate,he replied to a wanted add in the local paper,found out it was his ex g/f(she sent a letter to my p.o.box,not address)that was fun not.

I had a fat old time on FSO (Findsomeone)! Got engaged for the 1st and only time in my life to a woman I met there. Obviously it turned to custard (as I've never been married). But shagged some real minters along the way in between long (ish) relationships. Top show I say. Go for it people...get into it.
