    Recently I have decided to set up an online dating account but I have some concerns about it as most of the people on it are really forward and it freaks me out abit and I never know how to reply to them.
    I was just wondering if you guys have any advice on how to calm me down and if you think its a good idea to go on these sites, it would be really appreciated :slight_smile:

    I would say there are no problems with going on those sites as long as you aren't sending a lot of personal information out about yourself. You should be cautious as you never really know who you are talking to.

    I had an online dating profile,but some of the messages I received were very forward and I also didn't know how to respond,so I did the logical thing for me. I responded to the ones that I knew how to and deleted the rest. You can decide if you want to talk to or continue talking to a person. Just remeber that.

    I don't know, like they say nothing beats the real thing. I think like Flaming said above, use your intuition to seperate the wheat from the chaff! Best of luck. :slight_smile:

    There's nothing wrong with ignoring a message you don't like or feel uncomfortable with. It's not like the person's in front of you.
