I need some detailed answers about online dating: read before answering?

I'm a male college student, and I have been considering online dating recently. There seems to be nobody in my area who meets my moral standards or shares my interests. Maybe it's because I'm too serious (both about life in general and about relationships in particular), but there seems to be nobody who is morally or personally compatible with me. Therefore, I think I will try out online dating. I read about OKCupid and eHarmony, which are both free matchmaking sites. Are either of these a good idea for someone who is an intellectual, Christian, extremely conservative, looking for long-term relationships EXCLUSIVELY, and not flirty or looking for someone flirty? Also, it probably doesn't matter...but I'm 19. Even so, like I said, I'm having problems. It's not that I'm unattractive (TONS of girls think I'm "cute" or "adorable"), I'm not out of shape (I get plenty of activity), and I am not some freak (I have plenty of friends). That said, please give me some advice!

Wow, there is noone at college who is intellectual, Christian, extremely conservative, looking for long-term relationships EXCLUSIVELY, must be a small school. I just think your not taking enough time to get to know people. People are not always what they seem initally, people can be much more complex than you give them credit for. But yes, there are online places for this , just look them up. look up something like Christian singles for instance.





Buy the way- if your not flirty and your looking for somoneelse who is not flirty- how do you know if somone likes you or not. Human nature reactions does not make someone bad or of lower maral standard. Let's face it, at some point idf you do find love you WILL be flirty or you'll never have kids! Lighten up a little really and have fun, it doen't mean your doing anything wrong. Geeze.

Reply:on line dating is not good you just never know the problems that you will encounter
Reply:Most people looking for people on the internet are looking for one thing. SEX! But a few are not and you have to go through a trial and error period, where you weed out the " not gonna happen" to " I would love a second date". You can date more than one person to see who is a best gf material for you. You don't have to "hoe" around either. I used to try online dating, but no luck on that . Too many pervs looking for sex! So I stopped looking and he came to me! I found my fiancee on blackplanet.com. I met him last year, over the internet, and we are so compatible with each other it's scary. I never in a million years thought I would find my future husband over the net, but I did. This is after a lot of trial and errors. It takes some time because if you really know what you want, then you wont settle for nothing less and you may spend a lot of lonely nights at home (as i did). In the end it will be worth it. I was upfront with my standards and beliefs too. Thats a good way not to waste your time on people. Let them know what your about upfront. Also people arent freaks just because they don't have a lot of friends. Some people choose to have a small inner circle.
Reply:I think online dating is great! I met my fiance about a year and a half ago and we're getting married in July. He's 54 and I'm 55. It's a second marriage for both of us, but he is a wonderful man and I would have never met him otherwise.





eHarmony is not a free site. You can register for free but then they charge you. My fiance and I met on 'www.singlesnet.com'. There are a lot of other sites. Try Yahoo, and google 'online dating sites' and see what comes up. Be sure you put a recent pic of yourself. You will get a lot more responses. If you don't like someone or they don't like you, it's easier to say so online.





Good luck. There is the one special woman out there for you.





God bless!
