Stop the Pain of Break Up NOW Before It's Too Late!

Well, looks like I am (will be) single very soon. I heard of people going online to yahoo personals and other sites and meeting people, even marrying somebody they find online. What is your opinion on dating people off the internet?

I have to admit that I disagree with Rake on a few issues…first of all, he addresses that WOMEN need to be honest about their physical appearances, etc., but I think MEN need to too! Many of the older guys lie about their age, or use pictures of themselves from the 80’s or 90’s when they were young studs…or the bald guys tend to wear ball caps in their pics.

But here’s the thing I think about–I think its a great way for busy professionals who are looking for someone to date (or possibly marry if that’s what they are looking for) and you can "look" when its convenient for you, you don’t have to hang out at smokey bars, etc., and I do think that you should go into with an open mind that if nothing less, you could end up with a friend. Expecting "Mr. Right" will only lead you to disappointment. Keep your mind and heart open…what have you got to lose? And what if it was destiny that you were suppose to meet someone online…so just take the chance!

If there is one thing I’ve learned about life, its that NOTHING is guaranteed!

Im still a basic member on two sites that i like but im a little sceptical about trust and getting to know him from just a site. How did it go for full users?

Hi there,

Online dating services is getting more and more popular in the Internet world. In fact, many people worldwide, are members of various online dating services. Statistically, there are more than 40 million singles in the U.S. alone that have tried online dating sites to find romance.

While it is a great and fun way to find friends, dates, lovers and even marriage, there is risks. There are many scammers out there, that just want to steal your money or to get your email address. In my experience they go after new members… most dating sites show when you joined.

The most common trick is the visa and ticket scam. Basically it is a scam, where a attractive female from Russia, Ukraine or African countries like Ghana and Nigeria contacts a lonely foreign man. "She" quickly falls in love with him and shortly after announcing her "deep feelings" for him "she" begins to plan her travel to meet the guy in person.

Now the money issues start. She will now ask for help to get the necessary documents like visa and passport. When the guy agrees to that, she pretends to get it and next she will ask for money to ticket and travel expenses. She sends a copy of the visa (fake, of course) and the guy really has no other choice than to send more money.

Of course they will never meet. The scam will go on as long as the guy agrees to send money to her. She will come up with all kind of stories and reasons to send more money.

I got one of the craziest stories from a scammer myself… lol. I was scammed like this the first time I joined a dating site over 5 years ago and this is my own experience. It is a little embarrassing for me to admit, but I fell for it and it cost me some money. After that I did some research and got acquainted with some scammers on purpose just to see how they work.

Here are some warning signs to be aware of:

It’s too good to be true – You just signed up on a dating site and and haven’t even finished your profile and you get email from a very attractive woman.

The woman asks for your email address or ask to you write to her private email in the first letter.

She has posted her location on her profile to be from your region, but in her letter she tells you a story about why she is in Ghana or Nigeria now…

Any person asking for money, for whatever reason – Do not send money to anybody for any reason.

Eharmony?Myspace?YahooPersonels?etc..?

They are all pretty good. Personally I do not care for myspace and wish they would shut that one down. Yahoo personbals is where my dad found alot of his female friends. Yahoo runs a respectable site for personals and doesnt charge for using it. Just keep in mind thoug, anyone can say anything on the computer but it is how that person is once you meet that tells the tale
