Today, I met a really nice couple at a bar. We talked and the conversation eventually drifted towards online dating. I casually commented that hooking up through the internet was sad and pathetic. Turns out they met on Myspace. FML

One out of eight marriages last year were people who met online. I met my boyfriend online and we've been together for over three years and are now engaged. What's your way of meeting people? Going to bars? I think that's a little more sad and pathetic.

In your defense, I used to think the same thing. Then I went on a date with a guy I met online who seemed like he had some potential. He was by far the biggest douche bag I've ever met in my entire life. I think it fails more often than it works out, but it still works for some.

i think online dating sites are is pretty sad... but hey, whatever floats your boat. but when you meet on myspace and stuff it's different.

I had this exact same thing happen to me :p but it taught me a lesson about being too judgmental. It can work out for some people so why not right?

i actually agree tht online dating is kinda stupid it makes you look desperate and the ppl arent always who they say they are. but, on the other hand, sometiems ppl have better luck than others and endup finding someone perfect for them. And its not like he knew tht they met online. he was just continuing the conversation.

y are arguing over something like this? u could meet anyone any whe

Hey, it's your experience. They shouldn't hate you for it...

There is really nothing wrong with Online Dating.. It is just like couples who have their significant other in another region just because of a move or a war. It is only a relationship over a distance and everyone has a distance between them. The only time it is sad is when it is a dating site (maybe) and or if there is people 13 and under. I have a boyfriend 4 hours away from me and our relationship is better than any couple that lives near each other- our friends admit it. We have been going out for more than a year now.
