It is good because it is just another avenue to meet women... If you want to find the "one" or even if you are on there to get some ass it is of course just an added supplement to your normal dating/going out routine where you try to get laid and/or find someone who means something to you. If you don't have these accounts and online avenues and you only go out to find women you are missing opportunities of course so you need to stop worrying about what you think other people's perceptions are and start thinking about what the point of you being on them is...

Going on pof your description seems right to the T.... 3/4 of profiles are ugly and obese woman. Blatant shallowness in their headlines...  Headlines stating " 6ft or taller, guys with tattoos only,  gym bods only " the list goes on... It's hard to believe these women believe it's acceptable to act this way

My profile states, "I'm attracted to intelligence - please do not message me if you don't have all your profile pictures right side up. lol And no hair stylists, or tattoos. I'm serious."

I also am not interested in smokers, children, angry profiles...

It is what it is - if there's a match, cool. If not, I'm in no hurry.

You are just as bad as the people you are complaining about.


You are picky, just like them.

How about this: Interested in anyone who is real and legit. Companionship is why i am here, don't message me if you are just a shallow bitch looking for a hard body and a hard dick

I think the online experience is heavily dependent on location and age, as well as gender.

My experience with OKC was very positive. I met a lot of well-educated, attractive woman who were looking for a variety of things from causal dating to more serious relationships. I think the "pros" vastly outweigh the "cons": you can identify the most basic "dealbreakers." As an example, I could easily identify religious people that just aren't my cup of tea. You can also determine the basic level of attractiveness of the person and identify common interests.

The major "con" is that its competitive. However no more so than off-line dating. You guys complain the ratio of men chasing women is 7:1 (or whatever), but what do you think its like in real life? Same goes for all the other attributes described.

If you can't make it online,  your chances offline probably ain't much better.

I'm on OKcupid - never dated a girl from there but one hit me up for friendship and hanging out though I moved away from the city before connecting with her. I really dig the site.

It's true. Let's face it, many of us using dating sites are in our mid twenties, yeah? We're lucky if we can find a job, let alone a well-paying one.

I look for and my profile states/matches only 28-45.  I usually date guys around my age though, 33.  I'm not looking for sex, I'm looking for commitment and eventually marriage.  The next person I have a relationship with I hope will be forever.

I don't look for supermodel hollywood looks.  I'm offended that has even been suggested, just because I say must be active doesn't mean I'm looking for ripped.  I date plenty guys who are probably 'average' but I like cute and different things about individual people. 

I'm university educated with two degrees and am looking for someone who pulls their weight in life while being an interesting person with good chemistry.  My average income is 60k and I'm looking for someone "comparable", depending on their job - if they're a missionary they probably aren't for me because religion but if they volunteer their time to nonprofits or something then great as long as they are doing something with their life.

If someone else takes care of you and you are capable of taking care of yourself, then yes it does.  If you are completely self sufficient with that then it doesnt.  Unfortunately In the U.S. it is damn near impossible to live of 12k a year unless you are mooching off someone else.

What if you are in school and have a promising career and future but still make less than 25k a year due to obvious reasons (intern at job, school, ect...)?

What if you work two jobs and still struggle to breach the 20K mark? At 60-70 hours a week, I double dog dare you to call me a deadbeat.

I've done it for years without mooching. And accepting gifts of support without asking for them doesn't make one a deadbeat.
