You need to go out in the community and start meeting women and emailing them afterwards. Dating sites are only good for dysfunctional women and ones who are severely unattractive.


Exactly. Hit the nail on the head. When I used to talk to women online, I didn't use dating sites. I was smart enough to know not to. I just met women on the Internet for online chat generally, not necessarily for romance (although romantic emotions sometimes developed).

Even then, it's pretty much within the mark to say that any women I became friends with online were mostly dysfunctional and severely unattractive women.

One finding for me, that was almost certain to happen, is anyone I was able to make friends online was almost certainly extremely remotely located. They pretty much had to be in a place under 3,000, and over 30 miles from a larger centre.

Anyone not dysfunctional AND severely unattractive AND as remotely located as that WILL have enough positive social contacts not to feel they have to turn to the Internet.

I guess since I used most of those dating sites, I was one of those unattractive crazy women. :roll:

I guess I'm one of those unattractive psychos, since I met both my only lasting relationships and my current one online. :P
Dating sites are silly though. I prefer forums like this where you just meet people with similar interests, relationships are more likely to be satisfying for me if we have a foundation of friendship working for us.

But many male rapist are going through online forums, multiplayer games like runescape, and chat rooms, seeking out girls. It must so easy for a man to pretend to be someone who the girl would like. What do you think? I know I am right. Internet is the Wild Wild West.

Considering that the majority of rapes are committed by someone you know, someone you trust, and are usually a friend or a relative, I'm going to say that if I'm going to spend my life being scared of rapists, I should be more scared of my own stepfather or stepbrother than anyone I meet on the internet. :roll:
There are of course safety precautions to take, but I think that it's easy to detect the fakers from the real thing.

Try OKCupid! There's a lot of eccentrics on there, and they tend to be nerdier too (in a good way, at least compared to your typical dating sites, I'd guess).

What's wrong with call girls, hookers and cam girls?

I've tried everything, and I've only achieved a small amount of success, never met anybody in real life and I am currently single online and offline.


All of those sites are possibly the worst places to find a date, looking at their track record of fakers, scam artists and bots. My opinion is go to an actual dating site, message board or don't bother.

I go to NZdating, a dating site and there have been a few fakers but not as many as a place like myspace. Also with message boards you can weed out fakers and bots pretty easily.

Oh, this would've been perfectly at home in the London Review of Books (when they had their dating section). :lol:

My brother (not AS, but also no player) is going to buy a house soon with a girl he met on a datingsite. My brother is not a rapist, has a fairly good job and is generally a friendly person. She's not crazy, not very ugly and also friendly.

I met my wife also on the internet but on an aspie chatsite. Probably there are weirdo's on the internet since well, everybody is on the internet now! It just takes the same amount of being serious yourself to figure out someone else is. If someone is too good to be true, he or she probably is. If someone connects, has interests but also quirks it might just be a winner.

at least he is honest. and i'm sure there are women out there who are willing to be in a relationship with a guy who is violent, but honest. not.

It sucks when you live in a small town or in a small area and people you meet are few hundred miles away or some who are nearby within 60 miles have no interest in you because you don't hear back from them when you send them a message. But when you live in a big city, it gets real easy if you're a woman because then you get a bunch of messages from men in your area and you go meeting them.


Well what if you live in a moderately sized city of 1 million+ like Las Vegas, Nevada and everybody you meet online lives in California, New York, South Carolina or just about every place BESIDES Las Vegas, (even Reno just to tease you) and you talk to a couple thousand different people but never find anybody.

This is when you eventually become involved in long distance relationships online with NT girls, where I've done this at least 20 times, literally.
