I was reading "Ok fat admirers...." thread started by CuteyChubb which was actually very interesting and I came across that internet is all different than real life - well that's not really all truth imho.
Lots of people were bashing the internet way of dating but hey... it also has some pros. Let's say I meet somebody in the chat and chat with that person for a while... get to know her personality etc. I'm talking about being genuine here.. no faking somebody else. I know lots of you can say that there are lots of faked people around but... belive me, I'm online for years and people who I met on the internet and then in real life were actually same people I knew over the internet.
I'm pretty sure that I was same person as I appeared online - they are all still my friends... I think it just takes some lack of trust at the begining, and creating even bit of distance... to make yourself more interesting and safe dissapointment for both sides.
I know that bar is better place to meet somebody because first of all you meet local people, you can judge appearance of that person straight away... But, is it ok to judge people this way? And another thing... not many of us are in the bar 100% sober. I'm usually not. And please don't tell me that you can get to know your potential partner during bar conversation before evening ends... I don't want to say that meeting girls in the bar is bad... cause it's lovely way of meeting people. Most of us(singles) is socialising for that purpose and that's great, but we can't say that real life meeting is wonderful and online dating is just waste of time. And yes I am an FA and I have no problem approaching big girl in the bar if she looks nice but I also don't decline online dating... it's like typing with one hand - you'll get it done finally but with two hands you'll get there quicker.
Cheers
