Author	Thread: Do You Recommend?
Admin	Do You Recommend? Posted : 20 Sep, 2011 07:48 PM Would you recommend online dating to your brother or sister? Me and my little brother were talking and catching up the other day girls and dating came up and he asked how it was going with the online dating. I told him it was really frustrating and to not bother because he wasn't missing out on anything. How 'bout you? Would you recommend it to your brother or sister? Post Reply
bcpianogal View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 21 Sep, 2011 06:20 AM I have two sisters. One is engaged, and didn't have to "resort" to online dating. ("Resort" is the word she uses when she talks about me being on dating sites.) The other one is still in college, and has no interest in dating right now...she's more interested in making straight A's! But I don't think I'd recommend that she try online dating. It hasn't been a "bad experience" for me, and I like the forums here, but overall my dating life hasn't changed since I've been online. The few really decent and interesting guys that I've talked to online seem to view me exactly the same as decent and interesting guys in "real life"...they see me as a friend, but nothing more. I've thought for a while that it might just be a waste of time to try online dating. Post Reply
View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 21 Sep, 2011 07:17 AM I do not need to recommend, because my brother is already on sites, too. But yeah, I would recommend it, if need be. Its like a business, businesses go online to reach more people and that is what I do online. With my lifestyle, I do not have opportunities that the online single sites give me. But it is a major sorting out process, and I figure I have at least a decade to find the right individual that would mesh well with my lifestyle. Post Reply

View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 23 Sep, 2011 10:54 AM If I had brothers or sisters, I would not recommend it to them. In fact, they would probably do better in real life than I did. But I'm an only child, so this isn't an issue. My experience with online dating has been as unsuccessful as real life, and I've only attracted the attention of scammers and weirdos (who are probably scammers as well). Post Reply

View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 24 Sep, 2011 10:57 PM Honestly, no. My brother met his wife on Loveandseek.com and are happily married about 8 years with a lovely little girl and a little boy just born 4 days ago!!! :) But he never recommended me to it, why? Because online dating isn't for everyone, he wanted me to choose on my own and i'm glad he did! Post Reply
View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 27 Sep, 2011 01:34 PM I think I'd recommend online dating as ONE possible way of meeting others, but not as a main method, nor to expect much from it... Post Reply

View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 6 Oct, 2011 06:58 AM All my siblings are married or in a relationship, but I did recommend it to a friend, because it's a good way to meet new people, even if they only turn out to be good friends. But it definitely isn't for everyone. Post Reply
View Profile History	Do You Recommend? Posted : 14 Oct, 2011 08:11 AM I only have one sister and she's not interested in dating from what I can tell. But if she was would I recommend online? At first no, I wouldn't have signed up on here if there were actually options here locally. For the most part the women I know here are either far too young, too old, are married, or in a relationship. I think the important thing is when joining a site like this in some ways it's what you take with you into it. If you join a site like this as the end all be all and expect to quickly find someone and get married, lack of success will frustrate you. But if you join a site like this with an open mind that it is simply a possible means that God may use to bring someone into your life and if that happens great, if not that's ok too. I think when we place unrealistic expectations we get disappointed. I joined here 1 because it is a free site, and two because why not, you never know. But the whole time I know that if it is God's will that I am to get married someday that he will bring someone into my life by whichever means he pleases. You could join a site like this because you aren't having much success or have limited options. and the following Sunday there could be a visitor to your church that draws your interest. You really never know, I think the key here is to trust God and his planing, timing, and will and not the tools he may/may not use to bring someone special into your life. Post Reply
