So I just started the online dating thing. I've had no way to meet new people with any regularity, so I took my brother's advice and joined OKCupid. So far I just feel creepy. It's the equivalent of looking in strange girls's rooms at night, deciding if I like the posters on their wall, then knocking on their window and waving with a hopeful smile

My strategy was to write such sublimely excellent profiles that ladies couldn't help but message me. Worked pretty well.

Yeah I totally hear you on that. When I was on OKCupid last year I got nothing that I told it was looking for and it seemed to think that I was looking for a desperate woman either in her late teens or early thirties, all with kids. I got off of the site about a month later after getting nothing but crap. I might try it again with a different mind set, but for now, I share your feelings towards it. Besides, like I (think) I've mentioned to you before, my last girlfriend came along right when I decided I wasn't going to actively looking anymore. Just do your think and things will fall into place.

I was on there before. I met some guy in boston a few years back. he seemed nice, but while we were eating he went to the bathroom and never came back. I was lost in boston for a few days, no ride home. i dont drive so that sucked.. I had to pay for the meal too. god it sucked. if you go out with someone and even if you dont like them, be courteous. the dude sent me a message about how fat and gross i looked in person. first and last date of my life.
