Technology...it wasn't always around but now, some of us can't see life without it. I'm just 28 (I think), but I remember days when you would walk to the nearest house and ask to use the phone...and they would say yes. Now, if someone has a flat tire and a good samaritan tries to help, the person in need usually says, "I called for help already" (aka-get away from me you stranger...I know you plan on killing me). But then when it comes to meeting a special someone...where do you go? How do you meet them? The men who know me don't seem interested...so I guess online is the way to go!
Doesn't this seem strange and wrong?! I won't let someone help me with a flat tire or other various car problems because I'm afraid that they're psycho...but I will cruise online to find "my perfect match". Are we out of our minds!!!???!!! ...well, I guess we are, because I'm online, lol
Tips for you out there...paid sites...hit and miss...people make snap judgements on your profile and/or your picture...when people say they want to make friends first and then see where it goes...they mean that they are new to the site and they mistakenly believe that it works. Secondly, people lie...it's just that simple...go ahead and meet them anyway, but drive yourself and make sure a friend knows where you are. Third, be prepared to meet some real jerks...I shouldn't need to explain, I mean, your meeting a guy (girl, for you male readers) from the internet! Third, there are some REALLY good free sites out there...OK Cupid is one of them. Sites that you pay for are usually more fruitful in metropolitan areas because there are a larger percentage of people on those sites...if you're in a rural area...try something locally targeted. (Or, you know, you could take a stab at getting to know people in the community and let that guy look at your smoking engine) HAHA
