About 16yrs ago, I logged into... Yahoo Singles?  I was going to delete my profile (wasn't into dating at the time, long story).  Hadn't looked at it in months. In fact, I was only on there as part of some "investigative" work.  Someone had sent me a goofy question about my profile weeks before (goofy because I didn't remember what I had put in my profile).  I replied with "what the heck are you talking about".  Been married to her 12yrs now.

2003 I did the Same thing , Logged into Yahoo Personals,talked for a few weeks before we wanted to meet in person, Our first Meet was supposed to be at a WaWa off of Rt 309 in Quakertown Pa, at that time I only knew of 1 WaWa and not the other one at Tollgate Rd and 309, Did the 30 minute ride up on my harley to the WaWa I knew of and waited 20 minutes . I am thinking ok No Show tried calling by cell phone went to voicemail. Left and started the 30 minute ride back to my place, I didn't care it was a Great summer day for the Hog, I decided to pull over and check my phone and here she left me a voicemail saying she was at the Other WaWa and her phone died and had to go home and use her landline to call me,,,,it was still early so I turned around and went to the WaWA she was at for the first time. Hot Looking Blond ya could even tell she had 4 kids already. I followed her to her house so she Could drop her car off  Met this Sweat Lady who already had 4kids all boys and 2were twins. Ex Was an stunninghunk while we were dating and Her and I were starting to Fall for each other. I stuck up for her when the Ex would be a dick towards her or the kids but he liked to use his own kids as pawns against her. I was even there with her the night her oldest son at the time was only 16 who was struck and killed by a car while riding his bike.Long Story short after being together and just celebrated our 20th Wedding Anniversary

Great post, Molsman. It's good to read something nice like that once in a while. You scored a good family out of online dating.

I had to look up what "WaWa" was. Why aren't those out west, I wonder. Looks way better than a Stuckey's or 7-11.

they are like the 7-11's Sheetz and whatever Mini Marts are out there. Thank I just wish I had more photos of my step sons we only Have 2 of her sons alive today the One Twin and the 2nd Oldest who gave us our Granddaughter., The one twin OD'd on Herion and we never knew he was using at the time. His other twin is still alive but also fought his battles but is doing great right now. When I met my wife she always wanted a Daughter so my magic sperm gave her one,,,,, I loved my Daughter when she was born and still do til this day but back then Karen knew I wanted a Son she said if we are going to do it lets do it,,,,Bam Magic Sperm2 gave me my Son austin....... We Both agreed we were done since these were kids 1 and 2 for me but 5 and 6 for her. I was supposed to have that procedure done but i put it off. Then one summer we spent a week in OC Maryland had some fun and Ooops number 3 happened. Before Our Lovley Oops was born i bit the bullet and that thing done.. We are all happy but just wish i was there for my kids while growing up because i would be gone for a week with a few days off an no I was not a trucker,,, I worked a Firefighter/Paramedic 2 full time jobs and part time ones so i missed my kids growing up... I am playing catch up now even with my 30% functioning heart after 2 major ones ,,, one including a quintuple bypass and 3 minors after that but the last one now I have to wear an External Defibrillator but I am still living life to the end as I enjoy itl I am aslo shocked that i made it to 50 since i lost both my parents by the age of 22

I met my wife through a singles club. I paid for the year (wasn't expensive thankfully) and of course met her on the first activity I attended. She tried to kill me 3 times the day we met. I like that in a woman. We've been married now for 26 years.

I have several friends and relatives who met spouses through on-line dating and are happily married or long-term dating and happy.

Some are younger.  Some are older.  They also would tell me how this or that on-line service specializes more in this or that aspect, what things they had to watch out for, etc.

Seems generally like on-line services are good way to meet people as long as folks understand that not every person you meet on-line will end up being a good match.  It seems to take meeting a handful of people before finding a good match.

[Yarbles]

The line between dating for fun and more seriously is very blurred in my experience.

Its a question of honesty but there is also self discovery and people change.   

Single person households or on the rise though.

I did eharmony for maybe two years between 2016 and 2018 - worked in the sense that I met my wife and we have a wonderful 3yr daughter.

However

Our struggle is that she came from a big city on the east coast to my small town - Lots of culture shock. She struggles to fit in, is depresses about our lack of amenities/resources, has a lot of emotional anxiety/depression issues stemming from a turbulent childhood. It was hard for me to gauge that fully by being long distance because we were mostly laughing and having fun together while dating - not experiencing real world daily life together. Some people can leave and blend their lives together I’m sure, but I highly recommend focusing on a tight range where you come from a similar pond and can both easily flow between your family/friends and her family/friends. My wife being 1,000 miles away from what she grew up familiar with has really messed her up. She also craves value, respect and quality time which she lacked growing up - she thought I’d be her savior, but she has been jealous/angry at me whenever I want to do something for myself or others (sees it as me not prioritizing her). She has told me she would’ve left and gone back if not for our daughter.

Yes online dating found me a woman who had similar interests and goals as me looking for marriage and family, but we did not discover how different we were in temperaments until real life hit us both. I thought I could handle her emotional issues to be there for her for a lifetime, but honestly she burned that for the past two years.

By the way, you guys are famous… or “infamous”. She found this thread on my phone, continues to be one of her “grapes of wrath” anytime she gets mad at something.
