i always tell ppl i met dates online, some ppl take the piss out of me but i just tell them its cool then ask them when their last date was, always shuts them up! i used to cringe when i said it, but it's cool now. my dad soesnt know, but my mum does, i even got her into it!

Well I met my fiance online 4 years ago. I did have a problem telling my parents where we met, but not anymore, I'm proud to say it

I think it is still considered sad for young people to meet online, but i really dont care to be honest! Just want to find the girl who is perfect for me, however that comes to pass is ok with me.

if you picked someone up in a nightclub and brought them home (which does happen) what's to say they aren't total assholes?

if you meet someone online at least you have an idea what they are like before you meet them.

but then again they could be just great actors.... i can testify to that one.

Very true Mandy! It is possible to learn about someone on line before you meet! and your peception gets better as time goes on!

PS i hope you dont mind me calling you Mandy???

course not... it is my name afterall lol

I think that it is a sad reflection on peoples perception of cool that it is seen as 'sad or geeky' to meet someone online.
I have dated online on and off for the last 5 years and never have a problem admitting it if people ask.
I hate the meat markets of clubs and bars and what do I know of someone that I meet in a club, the likelihood is, if it is going to be a wierdo it is more likely to be some drunk in the local All Bar One that someone from a dating site.
There was a survey in the Evening Standard recently and they concluded that 1 in 3 single Londoners will try internet dating this year, that;s a lot of people making the jump from 'conventional' dating.
And what could be more old fashioned than online dating really.... love letters (e mails) taking it slow, getting to know someone before you jump into bed with them. I feel it is taking the rules back to basics again!
Just my 2 pennythworth for what it is worth.

well i met a guy (not from this site ) and we were together for 14 months - only down point was he was in sheffield and i was in glasgow - and neither of us would move ...... shame coz he was a top bloke .... but back to the question - i do feel embarrassed telln people i met someone 'on line' !!!

i wouldnt feel embarressed..i would say that we got introduced on-line, but met 'insert first meeting place here'..

well i just told people we met through a photography site forum ,, which wasnt really lying because he was into photography .. i wasnt tho but had just bought my first Digital camera lol
