Hey vulcan... there's some pretty artsy pics of that gal on the net.  Artsy enough that they made mason ask if she had a brother.

lol, gotta love some of the posts in this one!  ;)

seriously though, I've met and umm, known, 3 women from various online endeavors.  2 over ICQ, and one, interestingly enough, on a message board for UO.  She turned out to be pretty damn cute.  ;)  Pretty damn good in other things as well, but it didn't work out in the end.  Then again, the guy she ended up marrying didn't work out either.  She just left him.  :(  There were a few others I met from online that were not cute (and like others have said, I don't trust anything without a picture, and even then I am wary.  Webcams where they are live are about the best online proof of what they look like!)

Of course, I'm nothing special to look at, so I guess I shouldn't complain!  ;)

No personal experience with it but I have three friends who have met via the internet and married those same people. Personally I never would have and don't think I could try something online like that. Too many psycho people out there.

I gotta meet people up close and personal and even if she is out on the town with her friends for a night then she should not tell me about it till the next morning. Although my wife might take a dim view of that behaviour... ;) But after 7.5 years I don't think I will be heading out looking to bag some strange...Looking at it on the beach will not get you in serious trouble. Ask my wife; we both critique other women on the beach. Hell she even asked me once if I would have tried to bag one if I was not married. I of course answered;  "NO!!! What kind of fool do you think I am; you could catch some disease from strange women like that. :D"

true story... At work someone was showing me the match.com site after hearing about it on the radio..put a free add in match.com after reading all the crap the guys wrote about liking candlelit dinners and long walks on the beach... chick flicks and poetry....

I wrote "looking for a man to ruin your life?" I then proceeded to give my views on liberals... ending womens sufferage and explaining that a really good relationship consisted of spending the weekend in bed and then not seeing each other for a week.

I was kinda shocked by the responses... dozens emailed me with reasons why i would be the last person on earth they would normally talk to and gave me their phone number..  we usually met at my house and they spent the night.   I have been with one of em now for a year.  Very nice lady... we get along fine.

Nope.  Never had to.  I prefer to get away from the computer from time to time.

My cousin married a girl he met online.  That lasted for a year or so. Then he found out she was meeting with other guys she was meeting on the net and that fling ended.

I felt bad for him. He had it bad for her. But it was for the better, I guess. He ended up with one of my wifes friends and they get along great.

Not to flame anyone...but I can't see the need to hook up with someone over the net. Every city or town I can think of has both men and women. And there has to be good one running around.

pretty interesting lazs
and it illustrates something that, I think it was Animal, said and I agree with...

not only do 'nice guys' finish last, but a lot of women like the bad-boy thing...

but I think you got lucky in the web-date thing also...
I have to agree with squelch now days.  Plenty of women everywhere ;)

yep... plenty out there..  anyone who has seen me knows I'm no pretty boy.  Even so... if you are coherant and solvent then you will do ok.   I was not looking for anyone at the time and did the add as a joke.   I ran into some interesting women.

women have told me that they like men that have had... er... "interesting" pasts... I got the scars and tatoos to prove it.

On that note... it really doesn't matter where I meet women... I choose poorly.

You find the same proportion of freaks, fatties, and mutants on the internet as you do in real life.  Your just more use to "real life" ;)

LOL! Oh man, do I FEEL your pain :)

I sometimes think that dating is like Toads "Moth and the Floodlight" analogy in the other thread.  Blinded by the intense light, and you just keep ramming your head into the lense.
