many men have tried on here to send emails and try to chat to women that they find attractive but replies are few and far between does a man have more success when talking to a woman in a club obviously its easier to be brave when youve had a drink or two and your both out with mates whereas on here its not face to face and you never know whether you will even get a thanks but no thanks reply

well at least here you can't get hit in the face with an axe.

Ive never met anybody off a dating website, i have met people whom i knew from online, mainly from myspace, msn groups (in the good ole days) and forums but never on a dating site. i met a woman from a text dating service several years back and she was real nice, for about 6 months, then turned into a total bitch because she was actually married but her husband worked away for months at a time, she didn't tell me that until he phoned me one day lol.

my current girlfriend i met from myspace, dating sites feel a bit contrived to me, i prefer a social networking site as the emphasis is on communicating, not getting a date as such, but thats just me. This could be much better as a social networking site, profiles and messaging on this website are really basic compared to whats out there now. I like profiles to be customizable, then you get to see more than just a mug shot of a person in a pic and some text, you get to see a bit more of their creativity and imagination....or lack of it in some cases

Clubs are better for getting a shag (easier)

For me real life and clubs/pubs are better then websites.

Not easy if you don't look good in pictures, and/or over 50.

Some cant make themselves as attractive on the net as they can in real life, but some can. I've never had any kind of a meet with a women off the net, and looks like that isn't going to change.

Clubs were designed by a clever man (or a REALLY clever woman) back when I turned 18 years old, with one purpose in mind.......... SEX!

Now, if you want sex, clubs are banging, but if you want love, not so good.
Not that finding love is impossible in a club, but probably just as probable as finding it online.

It is all to do with confidence and perseverance I suppose, keep digging and you will strike gold.........

Strike gold or strike sh*t. Fear not, love finds everyone in the end and nails them down. But when it does so... One couldn't help but wonder... Will one feel they struck gold or the other thing?

Well my fella and me have a 6 yrs history, as you know though Jeg its been off and on like a saucepan lid, more off than on - sorta "on" at the mo - sometimes i feel that we are only being too bloody stubborn to let go *just because* of the "we've been together for yonks, that's got to count for summat" factor - and oddly enough we did meet via the internet, but not a website.....the last time i was in a club was the academy in bournemouth (fancy well-known dive nowadays, think its been renamed for the wannabes from london) That was my 21st birthday bash, 21 years ago!!

I cant say i have ever found a lasting relationship in a club, last girl i went with from a club last year was 22. I don't like the idea of pulling in clubs anymore, and i really only went with her because i was very drunk and she was very attractive and she kept brushing against me on purpose! having said that if i was single i would try my luck if i got talking to a woman whilst out, its not rocket science, its just the 'club scene' is focused mainly around casual encounters, i think. When i go to a club i actually like to dance, its not just to try and get off with someone, i go for the music and chance to dance mainly. That may not sit very well with some men who seem to think that its not macho to do so much dancing, you know, the ones that always stand at the bar blocking people from getting served, but really, i don't give a shit.

I don't enjoy the whole lets get drunk and shag, then never see each other again thing, that is, the sex is welcome, but always seems like a lot of effort with no real gain. I am a much happier person when i am in a stable relationship which means something to me. My experience tells me that clubs are good for casual encounters, but i have not met a long term partner in a club.

I don't go to clubs, so I suppose I'm not really qualified to make a judgement. On the other hand, I don't seem to have too much trouble getting dates if I put a bit of effort into it (which is not very often, cos I'm either too bone idle, or too skint to go on a date anyway), a bus, a train, or even just walking in the park with the dog. It's just a matter of being confident enough to start a bit of light hearted banter and then ask for a date if there's a spark of interest. I did actually once have the cheek to ask someone I was chatting to in a supermarket queue if she'd like to meet that weekend for 'dinner and sex' (I just couldn't resist it), and she said yes.
