| Aslong as both parties are actually who they say they are and not a creepy guy pretending to be a girl, I'm okay with it. Hell, if two people can grow to like eachother on personality alone they probably stand a better chance imo. |
 |
| If it's not irl it's pretty lame. Unless role play can suffice which i don't think it can. |

| There is nothing wrong with it but being far away from someone if you love them can be difficult. |
| Sounds way too hard. Dating is already hard enough, but ive heard about it working out for some people. |

| Do you think Internet dating is dangerous? It can be. Do you think Internet dating is good? Nope. Would you date someone on the Internet? Nope. Have you ever dated someone on the Internet? Tell us about your experience. Yep. It was stupid. Too many hentais out there are after my loli body. : I |
| I think internet dating is okay without the intention of trying to date in the first place |
 |
| I have some friends who met their S/O online. It's cool but you have to make sure that, that person has no bad intention to you and doesn't have any mental problem or abusive tendencies. |
 For salty fans |
| i never did it, i mean, theres people all over the fucking planet, i chatted a few times while drunk but it was boring. i saw a documentary called "Talhotblond" a few years ago and it was creepy as hell, so no. |
| You meant MyAustralianDating.net? Because the only ones I see using this site as a dating one are Australians. |
 Yes, I am CD 2.0's overlord. |
| I'm not that convinced about "Internet Dating", but still, it should be better than "Bar/Disco Dating". |

| I don't really care about it that much. |
 |
| My bf and I met through a facebook group. Although, we lived in the same area already. Nothing wrong with online dating, you just have to know what to look out for. I was stupid in high school and ended up getting stalked by two different guys online. One found my address and I had to call the popo (gawd weird shit has happened to me). |

| I dont know, but I agree that i cant be quite difficult, i guess in the end it all depend on how serious about the dating are the two persons. |
 |
| It's the only way I could ever get a date, so I like it. It helps people who aren't very comfortable talking in real life to find others like them, and that's a good thing. |
| It has its risks for sure, but dating is all about risks anyway. Personally, I wouldn't do it, but I have nothing against people who do. |

| It's a bad idea. You'll develop genuine feelings for the person, but in reality, you'll likely never meet to do stuff with each other. So it'd become a really sad and depressing thing. |
| Rarely works, it's not right or wrong just a waste of time. Just go to a club or sumthn |

Better be safe than hurt, do not even attempt to do it in the first place. But I know that the heart is hard to control <3 |

| I don't judge it as something bad, but at least I would probably never do it and I haven't even thought about that possibility before. |

| Huh, one of my friends has recently begun a relationship with a girl on steam. He's claimed to have spoken with her on skype via Video Calls multiple times and both of them have promised numerous times to meet. So far i have my doubts on it working. While i've seen Online dating have sub-par results (my dad found a girlfriend online for which he had a very healthy relationship with for 2 years) But that's the thing i think Online sites like Zoosk are fine, cause that's the point of them, they're made for online relationships. but in the case of my friend who has met this girl over Steam; Makes me question the legitimacy of that manner of Online Contact.(of course i wish the best for him) but i have my doubts. |

| I would never date anybody on the internet if I can't meet them in real life. Plus I'd only start dating them after meeting them in real life at least once. |

With all due respect it doesn't matter whether it's good or not, I'm just saying that ''meeting up'' ''getting married'' ''going on a date'' isn't the absolute goal of online dating, it's possible to keep it in 'perpetual check' a game that lasts forever the person participating could argue that ''I enjoy the feeling of loving my idea of you, instead of loving the real you'' while it might be weird and it might be the result of cowardice I think we can agree that it's neither good or bad. No one cares about whether or not it will work for you. |

| I met my current GF through a dating site. I think it's fine but it's really hard for guys, I had an account for 3 months and only went on dates with 2 girls, only 1 girl other than those 2 actually messaged me back. She showed me her account 1 day and she was getting like 15 messages a day, it's insane. The only girls I went on a date with messaged me first. So guys just make your account and wait for them to message you, you'll never get anywhere trying to find someone. Girls I'd say be cautious, just reading some of the messages that people sent to my GF showed me how creepy most dudes are, I thought girls just exaggerated that stuff. |

| Even when you are serious about someone, they are not. Dating online is just a game for most of the people. (not talking about dating sites) Personal experience is the hard way to learn that online dating is a mistake. Simply no, never again. |
| I'd rather stick shattered glass up my ass than date online again. And no... I'm not kidding. But if it works for you, then go crazy fam. |
 A pair of eyes appear disguised, ask for discord serverI take flight and stay high in paradise, With bad luck, snake eyes, a pair of dice. I'm paralyzed, she speaks twice, a pair of lies, It's parallel, apparent hell of parasites. |
| Personally, I wouldn't do it unless I felt deep within the chasms of my soul that that dude could be the one. I'm just way too "wanting of cuddles" to date online. But if it works for other people, then hey, that's awesomesauce. |

| Do you think Internet dating is dangerous? How could dating through the internet be dangerous?? XD Do you think Internet dating is good? No, but it is fun and a good time waster. Would you date someone on the Internet? For a good time waster, yes. It is just fun until you get bored of them then you have to dip out, feelsbadman |
| Vishnu was trying to persuade the prince to do his duty, so to impress him he took on his multi armed form and said now I become death, the destroyer of worlds. |
| Do you think Internet dating is dangerous? It does have its risks. You might end up meeting with someone very creepy or stalker-like. Or, you might get catfished. Depending on what happens, it can really negatively impact someone if they don't get what they expected. You can also get doxxed pretty easily if you aren't careful about your personal information. Once some nasty stalker gets a hold of that you have to do something to stop it. Do you think Internet dating is good? It certainly made it easier to date others, so it's good in that sense. It's not nearly the same as irl dating though. If you can date someone irl definitely pick that over the internet. Also, it sounds really shallow for me to say this, but I feel that the reason most people even bother with Internet dating is to get their nudes. There are a lot of attention-seeking whores out there. ._. Would you date someone on the Internet? I can't take online relationships seriously, so no. Have you ever dated someone on the Internet? I have. It's mostly just an excuse to have some cyber fun with females kek. :~) |

| Dating regularly is already a minefield, dating online is like diving into a tank full of sharks. What your looking for probably isn't worth the time or the risk. |
 "The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." -Friedrich Nietzsche |
| Sounds lame stuff to me , not even worth it. |
| I thought this thread was going to be about online dating (ie. setting up real life dates via. the internet), not "dating" someone over the internet. I wouldn't consider that dating in the first place. I don't know what I would consider it; a scandalous and bizarre form of online friendship, I guess? |

| It's harder to pull off (especially if the two of you live far away) but it's worth it in the end. I mean, if you can get through the hardships of having a long-distance relationship then it's likely the relationship will last in the long run. One of my best friends has been in a long distance relationship for a little over two years now, and it's going strong for them. They've had their share of issues but it's made them stronger for it. It isn't for me personally, though. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| Do you think Internet dating is dangerous? yea Do you think Internet dating is good? depends Would you date someone on the Internet? no Have you ever dated someone on the Internet? no |
| Do you think Internet dating is dangerous? it's more dangerous than regular dating Do you think Internet dating is good? i dunno, maybe Would you date someone on the Internet? i...is that a request? <//////////> Have you ever dated someone on the Internet? Tell us about your experience. nope |
 |
| been there done that and it fucking sucked, 0/10 don't do it unless you want your heart to be torched and burned until it's dust |
 |
| Online dating seems sad. Even when physical distance isn't an issue, I still feel like there will be a disconnection between the two due to preconceived notions of what it would be like when they finally did meet. But to each their own, if it makes them happy for a little while than I don't really see it as a bad thing. Just kind of empty and fruitless most of the time. |
