The Hazards of Internet and Love-line Dating
In this period of our society's evolution, with people becoming busier and busier, it is only natural that the Internet and phone would spawn more dating sites than the Octomom does babies. I have read many articles in the past suggesting men approach women in supermarkets, dry cleaners, etc. Unfortunately with stronger and stronger stalker laws and brands of mace on the market, I don't recommend this approach with any relish. It is certainly awkward and any male knows the sting of rejection hurts worse than pouring the whole container of Morton's Salt into an open wound. Once you, as an adult, are out of high school and college, the number of available females you come into contact with on a goodwill basis where the dating magic 8-ball signs all point to yes is relatively slim.
I know in a work environment, even asking a female if she's dating someone can be considered harassment which, to me, is ridiculous and overkill but this the world in which we live. This leaves the Internet and/or phone dating sites as one's best opportunity for love, sex, and romance. Whether you are looking for one of those or all three, opportunities do abound. Now, it is comforting for men to know that there are more women available than men on the whole so that gives you decent odds. Even once you eliminate those that are lesbians, married, or hate men(I know I already said married so that's probably redundant;)), there is a large market of potential prospects out there. If you consider some of your male counterparts are gay or married, that widens the field as well. If you are picky about physical types, age, or language spoken then the world is truly your oyster. If you are one of those picky guys who wants to be able to communicate with a woman in the same language, prefers she doesn't have a face that curdles milk in the carton, and still has her original hips then you will have a slightly greater task but I am sure you are man enough to handle it.
Now I recommend honesty as the best policy. You shouldn't reveal everything like your passwords, your best quiche recipe, and ATM pin but you shouldn't pretend to be something you're not. It will only end badly. Hell hath no fury like a women scorned! I have tried multiple dating sites online and also over the phone and have had mixed results with all of them. It is really a numbers game. No matter what, you will meet people you wish you didn't, some you like who feel differently, and vice versa. Eventually you will find the right match if you are seriously seeking a long-term commitment. There's is someone for everyone, which amazes me still because I have met some very bizarre people in my life and somehow they will find another very bizarre soulmate to collect dead moths with. You WILL meet a psycho eventually. You might not recognize it because you too might be a psycho and that's your soulmate but you will meet one.
I met this chick once who said she had been tied up recently for a week at some guy's place and finally got free. I should have figured something out then since she was on a phone chat line talking to strangers. I agreed to meet her and picked her up and went to restaurant and just talked. I wasn't interested in her at all and took her home. The next day a police officer called me and said she accussed me of rape! I explained I didn't even kiss her. He obviously believed me which he why he only called in the first place. Apparently she had done this before. He asked me, "If we examine her are we going to find anything?" I said, "Not from me!" I never heard more about it. Obviously I never gave up phone or internet dating, but I definitely avoid women with bizarre abduction stories. I won't go into my whole history but I do recommend a public place for both partie's safety and letting someone know where you are going. There are women who partner with men to rob unsuspecting men. The biggest threat one can face is meeting your mate and getting married like I did!
