I think wether you meet a person face to face or the first time or on the net, NO ONE is going to reveal there whole life story to you? it takes time and trust with that person, people just need to be careful in how they meet anyone for the first time..Serial Killers like Ted Bundy and Kenneth Bianchi met women face to face some who trusted these killers just by talking to them innocently.
Meeting people for the first time no matter how you meet them takes time before any trust can happen it needs to build up..
That's my 2 cents....
Seperated at birth?
Haw!
LOL
I have a better idea. Pass a law in Michigan requiring single women to avoid men completely.
Very good likeness.
You know, this makes sense. Otherwise you'd have folks like Scott Peterson getting marriage proposals.
Oh, wait........
Good post. People need to learn how to read non verbal communication, which is hard with the internet but not impossible if you keep up with the details shared. When there are red flags you have to learn to trust your instincts. I had a couple of bad experiences with online dating and have sworn it off for me. I do know people who have met online and are happy as a lark though.
Agree....People have had good and bad experiences wether meeting a person on-line or in-person. You can meet a person in a bar they can either be a half way decent human being or a rip roaring drunk.
Use your instincts..
I can tell you after being on FR 2 years there are some folks I can see myself being friends with in-person, then there are some that would be an absolute NIGHTMARE to meet in person! LOL...
Actually I did meet one freeper in person and we have turned out to be pretty good friends..
Crikey, how safe is romance OFFLINE?

Good point. We should require background checks before issuing marriage liscences. /sarc
stupid useless, big government wacko politicians... grrr
Alan Cropsey's behind this one?? I didn't expect this from him.
Not just anti-depressants. I would also be looking at serial divorces, serial restraining orders (either directions), membership in radical organizations, etc. BTW, what I have listed are of course disqualifying criteria. After one very bad experience (she went extreme psycho), I would almost prefer running a background check of the same magnitude of a Q clearance.
Please add me to the Libertarian ping.
I have some friends who have used match.com and have met some very nice people. They did meet a few who were married, however.
you have been added welcome aboard
eHarmony - Loser Central for $50 a month.
Yeah, a friend of mine tells me she cannot believe the amount of married people on these single sites... One guy she met who she told me she really liked confessed after the 3rd date with her he was married, she asked him why and the dufus said "because I can, the Internet, Text Messaging was made for Cheaters! She dumped him quick!
I've never joined eHarmony, but I took the free online test. Apparently, there are four women in the country that I'm compatible with. Let the good times roll.
How do you know it's Loser Central? How do you know it's $50 a month? LOL ;)
