    I'm having trouble finding someone in real life and I think that dating websites is a bit of a sad way to find someone. When someone asks you how you met, you will have to say online which sounds like you were desperate at the time.

    I can't really find anyone decent in real life that isn't taken, it is rare to find a girl that is on her own and is attractive. I live in an area isolated from my friends, I can't get to them so easily as they live around 5 miles away, the area I live in is full of ugly people that I wouldn't date, usually single mums and ugly tramps. Most people are working all the time and they are hard to get hold of, usually when I go out, I see only one friend, most of the people I know are boring, they sit at home watching TV or working.

    They say love will find you but I don't think that is the case now, in real life it is mainly unattractive and stupid girls that aren't my type, whenever I go into clubs I always find girls that pile foundation on their face and are hard to talk to. I try to talk to some of these girls I know but the conversation is always short, I don't share interests with them, they never seem interested in me either.

    It's hard to find the right girl, so I think the only way is to resort to dating websites.

    Tons of people use dating websites nowadays.

    My mum and my stepdad met via a dating site and have been married for 8 years. And I've met the man that I love and live with via a dating site.

    Why restrict your love or sex life to the small area you live in? Theres a whole world out there. There are probably sexier, smarter and more loving people beyond the border of your town/city.

    Go get 'em kiddo :thumbsup:

    I had a wonderful relationship for 20 months with someone I met on a dating website. I ended it in the end, but that had nothing to do with the website.

    Give it a go. Just be careful and try and be honest. As in real life the same number of d1ckheads populate the web as they do in our day to day.

    I will tell you this honestly, I met my boyfriend online. Not a dating website but online. I know, I'm only 14 but that is besides the point. He and I are doing great even though we are long distance.

    I find dating websites to be helpful. You get to expand your horizon without going everywhere and anywhere. My mom and her current boyfriend met online and I have never met two love sick teenagers who aren't teenagers like they are.

    It doesn't make you sound desperate when saying you met online. I at least and people I know don't think so. Give it a go. You never know what'll happen.

    Good luck!!
