POF and wedding is hard to compute for me.

POF and Q-Tip test? Yup

POF and pictures while she passed out? Yup

POF and tricked her with my fake profile? Yup.

POF and find out you crossed swords with a buddy? Yup.

POF and marriage? Nope, does not compute.

Good luck to the happy couple, they look great together.

:thumbsup:

Nice to see so many marriage related posts on the forum lately. Changing demographic.

No offense, but the guy in the story sounds whipped. Reminds me of myself 15 years ago. Sooner or later, he'll get tired of it. Keep me posted when that happens cuz it's usually epic lol.

haha and the 2cents from the bully is: If he ain't getting what he wants now, then I would just go out on a limb and say, he probably won't get it in marriage. :rofl:


I would give Clarence some of the things he wants because he has sacrificed so much to make me happy.

Oh I dont think you're one to talk;)

You dont know any background to them other then what was posted, yet you're one to jump to such conclusions? okay... :rofl:
I can now see why you'll have such a short time here.

This is why most members enjoy picking on idiot trolls like someone around here.

Sorry but I didn't vote because online dating is for whack jobs.

Good on the ppl that can make it work. I kinda don't believe those dudes saying they keep hookin up with smokin hotties on pof. An I think some of those hottie profiles are fake anyways. I usually can't even send messages, I guess I don't meet their criterias they set. But like I said I think those are fake profiles pof made up just to get people's hopes up or to pay for premium services.

M.Alex how is pof working for u???

I hired this 40 year old guy that is a total creep who is missing teeth and fingers who was telling me about all the babes he was hooking up with from Match.com. I always thought he was talking out of his ass, but sure enough when we went out to dinner he brought out this incredibly hot girl half his age...:confused: If I didn't know better I would think she was an escort, but it turns out that they are now dating.

Can't vouch for that^ But you def still need some game, its just online game - to get them hooked and then set up a meet.

There's def some good looking girls on there, and not all of them are crazy or looking for hookups only.

The fake accounts can be sort of easy to spot, but otherwise - its not for finding a text or email buddy, get out there and meet them.. If they don't exist, aren't cute, aren't skinny.. move on.. Its great for bringing a lot of people into view you wouldn't have found otherwise. :dunno:

Its no different then real life, you have to be decent looking (to land the good looking girls) and be able to talk to a girl.. You can't just hide behind a keyboard like this site.. :rofl:

People can still find their soul mates, even when they're just looking to fuck (at first). But I agree with Rage, he sounds seriously whipped, and that hover hand just looks creepy, like he's not allowed to touch her until they're married :rofl:

What was the biggest hurdle you’ve faced as a couple?
"him being afraid to touch me"

I met my wife on POF. She didn't have an active account at the time, but I was active in the forum (do they still have that?) and when I posted about the Philippines after I got back from vacation, her and I started chatting. Now it's 5 years later and we're still together.

And while I don't feel comfortable posting a picture of her on here -or rather, I don't think she'd be comfortable if I did - you're all just gonna have to trust me when I say she's slender and attractive, and not crazy. Well.. ok... not excessively crazy anyway... and isn't that the best we can hope for?

With that said, I will admit I dated a bunch of girls from online sites in the past and while some of them were indeed hot, not many were both good looking without giving off cues of mental conditions.

Something like 40% of (new) couples have met online.
While what very (very) few girls I've met off of POF were a total disappointment, I've heard some damn good stories of people that have met on eharmony. I haven't yet tried that, but I'd def be open to trying it at least.
Much the same with match.com :dunno:

The women on Match are either social rejects, or are finally looking for something serious because they've popped out a few kids and realize they need to start going for the "right kind" of guy opposed to the typical douche, lmao.

I've tried the online thing in the past with some success back when I had no social life between work and school. Got a few long term relationships out of it and ended up with some good friends/professional contacts that I still keep today. I also know several people who are happily married as a result of those websites, or currently engaged/living together.

The vast majority of the girls on there (In the mid-late 20's range anyway) are Teachers, Nurses, and busy professionals using the site because they don't have much time to go out every night the "traditional" way due to shift work or long hours.

There is definitely some crap you need to weed through, but the pay sites have a lot less. Just skip any profile with a duck face/iPhone/bathroom mirror shot and you can cut your time in half right off the bat. If you just want hookups, POF seems to be the place, but the other sites that cost more tend to have more "serious" people on them, if that's what you're after.

All in all I don't have much bad to say about them based on my limited experience. You get out what you put in, same as anything else.

Really? I haven't so much as even checked out that site. :dunno: Hmmm.... I've heard a few good stories about eharmony though.

When I tried Match, the vast majority of them in my age group (late 20's) were Teachers, Nurses, and various oil & gas positions. I definitely would not say they were all either "social rejects" or had kids.

There is some garbage on there too, same as anywhere, but I'd say the majority were perfectly reasonable people who are just too busy otherwise.

I have some teacher friends that use these sites. It makes sense, the teaching, nursing professions are predominantly female so it makes meeting someone difficult. :)

Oh, they had great jobs for sure! But they had kids, had social problems, or they were 20 somethings looking for 45 year old men...

^ The kids part is the deal killer for 90% of the guys out there. Myself very much included in that group. That being said most single moms need social networking sites such as Match.com to help land a guy. If I ever meet a decent, hot girl with a kid, instantly she's completely off my radar. I made that mistake ONCE when I was 19, and never again. I think most guys feel the same way. Being a dad to someone elses kid? no thanks. :nut:

POF is an absolute crap shoot. Most quality girls have zero need to go on such a site anyway. Its not like they lack a good supply of great guys anyway, so why they'd need to go on such a site to meet additional random guys is beyond me. The only two girls I've ever met on POF were amazing at using perfect photo's that hid everything you didn't want to see or know. Everything else about them, yeah..... :cry:
So much for that.

IDK, you see a few people that have met great girls/guys through POF, but I've heard more horror stories then I can count.

Never used online dating myself, but did initiate contact with my wife over e-mail as that's all I got once from my co-workers wife, but within a week we were seeing each other in person, so don't know if that counts as online.

If I was single, I would definitely try out a site like eharmony and match.com Just weed through the crap, and I am sure you can find someone interesting. My wife is a nurse working the evening shift, could be worse, could be the night shift, so those people definitely would have trouble finding anyone by other means. I personally have been shy for most of my life, hate clubs and don't drink, so I much rather look online for someone than to go to a club and pick up some girl that has been with every other guy at the club already...dressed like a slut. Great for a short term fling, shitty gf or wife material. I much rather have someone with a brain and some dignity. Now that I work in an office environment, there are definitely opportunities in the work place...but that's usually a no no..or downtown in general, as there are plenty of educated professional girls/women. Married now so couldn't care less, but that's my view of online dating or dating in general.

As for the couple, good for them for finding each other, but even though I love Asian chicks, she seems like the one that would carry an LV bag around, that's an automatic turn off, right after smoking haha
