Just to give a hint what I learned playing "Female me" so far

- 99% of guys on dating apps according to the female users are pervs, ugly, unworthy, losers and pigs. So your very presence on a dating app damages your value automatically.

- Having a threesome-willing girlfriend whether she is bi or straight makes threesomes so easy: My "female me" was able to seduce 4 different women in one session into a threesome deal with "my boyfriend"

- Dick pics sharing is common when talking about male bodies, "Me: Here, this is boyfriend" (sending a realistic-look fake pic of some amateur pornstar) "Her: Ooohh nice dick, here my boyfriend's" (dick pic)

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Those are such women of substance. :roll: That's why I said that the only reason for going on a dating website is for a quickie lay romp in the hay.

That's so f*****g wrong, why would you even share that. I don't want someone else seeing my fiances junk!

^Also nurseangela I appreciate what your saying but quite a few people are in meaningful long term relationships with people they met on dating sites.

Who? I'm not hearing from any here....

I know of one at work and she went on Eharmony. I went on there, but whenever it came to talking by email, they always froze up. I also would only get about 1-2 matches in my area per month (it cost $50 a month). When I cancelled my membership, all of a sudden I started to get several matches a week. WTH was up with that? BS, that's what! It's all about making money not finding a Hunny! (Hey, that rhymed!) :mrgreen: They probably got in the middle of me finding true love! I went to that site because you weren't relying on just a person's picture and most members are Christian, however my friend is an Atheist, so I guess that is incorrect. Not a good experience and very expensive.

Which site did you go on and which did Sweetleaf go on? And did you make the first move? Could you maybe show us a picture of your bio so we can see what worked for you? And what attracted you to your current bf that made his bio stand out from the rest?

I was on OKcupid but I dabbled with Eharmony once and POF (both I hated). I wish I could show you my bio because I was so proud of it. I sort of evolved it over a year and made sure to regularly add new pictures and info. It was basically

Hi I'm Alliekit, I'm in my first year at uni studying human biosciencesa and hope to be a reasearcher one day. I am a gamer (I hate the term gamergirl) and mostly play the xbox but also do a bit of PC gaming etc etc.

After that I would just like answer the questions always making sure to add bits to them.

Sometimes I would make the first move and often would like give someone a like to show my interest. I made sure to answer a question at least once a week so I showed up on the 'recently updated' list.

Honestly it was his first message that got me. It was: "Hi, I don't really know what to write but I wanted to message you.... so here it is". It just seemed really sincere. Looking at his profile I could tell he had a geeky humour and was charming in an akward way. I remember one thing I still make fun of him for and that was under the 'what do people first notice about me' section he wrote 'that I don't have a lovely lady under my arm'.

When my fiance gets here in the morning (it's 11pm here and he works nights) I will ask him because he remembers more about my bio and what he liked about it :).

Don't get me wrong online dating is tricky and it's like sifting through loads of infomation but it can happen.

I met my current steady on some online site that no longer exists. He was the one who contacted me and we talked about how we were both reading the Lord of the Rings books in anticipation of the film coming out (so you can tell how long ago this was).

I never did eHarmony because they would not allow me to be a member lol! They target family-minded, traditional etc., so the fact that I said I was an atheist who did not want children automatically excluded me.

Online dating CAN work, but you also have to remember that a lot of people who are online are online for a reason. That's not to insult anyone here - I'm just saying, there are a lot of messed up people online. They either treat dating like a buffet, they have attachment issues, or social issues. (and to be fair, I was online because I had social issues - horribly shy and social anxiety.)

That's true I was online because I was super shy and anxious aswell. My fiance was on there because he worked in an all male factory and lives in a tiny village so couldNT meet any girls unless he went out drinking with workmates (he hates going out drinking and hates casual sex. He saved his v card for me :D :D )

I also went on OK Cupid and POF and ended up with so many replies (most undesirables and they all didn't say such nice things), that I immediately closed my accounts and left. Another nurse at work went on Match and the guy sent her a picture of his penis! What is wrong with these men? She acted like it didn't bother her, but she didn't stay on that site much longer. Wasted time. I just don't want to spend time around those kind of people and I don't have the time to go "shopping" for a Hunny. Most of them that I did look at their profile got weeded out either by them acting too "cocky" or something else that I couldn't have lived with - like smoking, drinking, kids, wanting women that were 10-15 yrs younger than themselves :roll: , and the biggie of not telling what job they had even though I was very open with what I did. I hate secretive people. Having secrets is as good as lying in my book. A lot also spoke of traveling to many places and having hobbies that they did like skiing, water skiing, and a bunch of other hobbies that I wouldn't be interested in. The truth? They were just trying to make themselves look good by saying they did all of that crap when in reality, they probably sit their ass at home just like everyone else. That's why I don't do Facebook. It was even on the news how people try to outdo each other on Facebook by saying how many things they do (parties, traveling) and they said that about 75% of them are lying. It's called "trying to keep up with the Joneses" except on Facebook, people can lie and no one knows. I'm not into the lies. For most guys, I'm probably too boring - not much travel, study a lot, read, knit, exercise, watch TV - just your normal everyday things, but I'm loyal, funny, not too hard on the eyes, have a great job, no ex-husband, no kids, not a feminist, no STD's - in otherwords, a perfect package! I just happen to be an introvert who loves my jammies! :mrgreen: Their loss, I guess.
