I really guess it is just being very lucky, I met my last boyfriend on a dating app, we were in a very long distance relationship, he lives in France & I live in California, we made our relationship work. My current boyfriend is long distance too, we are meeting in September. I gave up on dating sites on & off for two decades.

My mom met her boyfriend in a chatroom, she met two guys.

Before I met David (when I was single) I contemplated online dating but I realized it was too dangerous to even attempt because of catfishers and criminals!! !

My friends and neighbors who found love through online dating apps were just lucky & their results are an anomaly compared to the vast majority of the population!

Their results DO NOT reflect the general U.S adult dating demographic

Most people who utilize online dating apps don't end up making it to romantic relationship formation stage and don't end up getting married

Glenn and Jealene must have both done something different to stay out of those statistics then...
My former supervisor met his second wife on a dating site & they've been married 14 years now & things are still going well. He had met his first wife through work many years earlier & she had lots of issues.

I tried lots of different dating sites myself & never gotten so much as a single date but I was upfront about being disabled. I met the three girlfriends I've had on online forums. The first was a common interest & I met the other two on this forum.
