Meeting internet people usually makes me very uncomfortable, unlike in a natural setting. Maybe it's just me. I've always been this way.

wh is your username green in the users browsing this section part?

She's reached God-mode here on WP.

That's not exactly difficult for an attractive female like herself. All one in her situation has to do to achieve such mode is post a thread with the following title ''Hai halle bopp here, I iz looking for has a bf?''

god mode reached.

I use them because am vain and like to see how many responses I can get. Admittedly I have met up with a few local girls, And a few times bumped into people from the site while out drinking. For me it's a mix of Banter and a challenge.

Plus the odd treat of getting sex from it is fun.

On the Relationship side of things, it's proved as useless for me as housepartys.

It's interesting how it's a girl who says dating sites are terrible. All you have to do when you're a girl is look pretty, and people will ask you out. So, to clarify, dating sites may not be the best option for hot women who get asked out for doing nothing except putting makeup on.

I'm a fairly attractive male, and I rarely rarely get asked out, unless I go to a gay bar. And I'm unlikely to ever ask anyone out. Society is sexist.

i think fiona (halle bopp) is probably upset because she is getting lots of creep pming her saying things like ''wanna f**k'' or ''nice tits''. I guarantee she is getting lots of messages, but she is prob frustrated at the quality of guys. She is prob looking for more than sex as im sure she could get that no problem lol.

Well she should say that on her profile. And maybe she should message the guys she likes herself and ignore/delete the ones she doesn't. Seriously, if that's her problem, it seems pretty trivial compared to the problems faced by most people on this site. Or she should try POF. I haven't used it, but I've heard it has a filter that filters out key sexual words. She could filter out words like "f**k" and "sex." It isn't that hard.

hale_bopp, have you tried setting up a dating profile with no photos, or messaging men you are interested in?

That isn't why I'm upset at all. I'm not upset. I just think they're an awful unnatural way to meet people.

And most autistics have awful, unnatural personalities not conducive to meeting people the traditional way.

It doesn't mean I don't have some far fetched hope, in general, they're a terrible way to meet people.
