• [7] Internets

  In life I feel like there's this rollercoaster of ups and downs, for me it seems I can also apply it to my dating scenario. There are times when I'm "up" my game is tight, dates are plentiful and conversations go great. There are also times when things are "down" - pretty much the complete opposite, me being a wall flower, stumbling on words, unapproachable. At the moment I feel like I'm at the bottom of the ride and going up the chains for another run of the course.

  I've been contemplating the idea of online dating for a few days now. I hope it's not one of my temporary phase thingies - or do I?. I've been getting alot of mixed reviews from this, now some are good, others are bad. Good because it'll get my social skills & conversational skills back up to par and bad because my goal is not to look for something serious. What the heck, it'll sure as hell give me alot more content to post on this blog. I remember back when I was dating my 3rd girlfriend at the time, Jean we met thru the internet back while AOL was doing $20 unlimited dial up. We had met thru the net but whenver people asked how we met, we always said "Through a friend of a friend". Internet dating seemed kinda sad back when you were younger. But hell! I've already gone speed dating thrice, what's the harm of actually getting a date thru the internet? Personalities shine the most!... right?

  So the question now is; which route should I go? The most popular ones - Match.com, Chemistry.com  These are paysites and usually people take it a bit more seriously. As for the other sites like okcupid.com, are free and i feel like that isn't as good. I guess this is where I turn to my anynomous readers and ask them for advice. Well? Let's hear it.
