[QUOTE=TheBrokenHobo;51385166]if there's ever an fp dating thread i will be sure to auction off a date with me for charity i expect to raise no less than ten million dollars the competition will be fierce[/QUOTE]
I got some pocket lint, is that cool?
This might not be a popular opinion, but... I don't really see the point in online dating.
I know a lot of people have started long lasting, serious relationships online, and I think that's great. But I can't imagine doing it myself.
Six years ago, this girl from my school started chatting with me online after class. It was weird because we barely ever talked to each other at school, but we spent hours at a time just chatting about anything online.
Then she fell in love with me, or so she started to imply somewhat publicly.
I didn't really have any feelings towards her, other than I liked chatting with her. But we never really interacted in real life, it was all just very strange. In the end, nothing ever happened, but we're cool with each other and over it by now. I just don't understand how you could fall in love with someone by just chatting with them through the internet without really having any other closer interaction.

Then again, I'm very introverted and I rarely ever open myself up to others, so how should I know

I was being cheeky :c
Sorry if I came off like an ass.

Also, as far as online dating goes, I really don't know if it would be for me. After my first experience, I think it'd be better for me to find someone who was a little bit closer and someone I absolutely [I]knew[/I] that I could physically visit one day. I love my ex to death, but I could see that the distance and the uncertainty were weighing heavily on both of us internally. For both of our sake, we had to cut it off. Eventually, they found someone much closer and that makes me glad.
Not saying an entirely online relationship will absoultely always fail, but rather, it depends on the parties involved. I just dunno if I could do it again, but that's me.
Online dating through mediums like OKC is exhausting. Two people have responded to messages I've sent, and one of those people is Mort Stroodle lol. I've sent so many messages, and liked a lot of profiles, but I've only got one mutual like and one date to show for it
[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;51383860]Quite a few people in this thread alone found somebody on facepunch tho lol[/QUOTE]
Facepunch.com is the best quasi dating website ever.
Can confirm.
Pretty much every LDR I've observed has come crashing down one way or another, so my disdain for them ain't that unreasonable I feel.
However, I can still respect the ones which have been going strong for a long time. It's good that you're happy.
Just don't rub it into everyone's faces. The LDRs I've seen which did that always ended poorly.

People say this a lot, but I've rarely seen a relationship in close physical contact last either. Relationships are relationships, they crash, they burn, they rarely last. That's just human contact. Why is it only LDRs that are perceived this way?

You and Mort should bang tbh.
In other news I have been going out with the guy I met on OKC for like a month now and we are boyfriends 🙃
You can't give the D via internet, so why bother?
It's one thing if you can see each other a couple times out of the year, but if a couple can't physically be a couple, the relationship will stagnate.
LDRs lack the physical aspect of a relationship of that caliber. They can make the people involved either extremely paranoid about cheating because of how easy it would be to keep such acts under the radar on the internet, or just extremely frustrated and depressed with no physical contact with their loved one.
There are a slew of things an irl relationship has over an LDR, which can make LDRs difficult.
Also timezones. One of the people in a relationship may start to fuck up their sleep just to be with their SO, and that can fuck up a lot of aspects in their life.
Every online relationship discussion in this thread is exactly the same lol, happens like every other month.

I am fairly certain we're not each other's types lol
good for you though, no im not feeling jealous or spiteful haha [sp]fuck you and your happiness![/sp]
I was going to get that guy to go the park with me this weekend and bring his dog but apparently he's working. I asked if he had a time and place he had in mind instead, and there's been no response. I'm pretty sure most of his lack of responding is due to him being interested but too nervous or uninterested and not willing to say that outright. Oh well! Ecrown got to listen to me drunk rant about this last night but thankfully I think I got it all out (i hope)
I don't even know what to say related to the topic other than it works and it doesn't work.
Who cares? v:v:v

Just stating my opinion and elaborating on it. Not like I'm spouting vitriol towards the people in them.
I can understand the stigma of failure involving LDRs, but yeah. For some people it works, for some it doesn't. Like I said, it depends of the people in the relationship.
I think people are weary to talk about it here because there were a few folks in this thread that were going "lol its not going to last ur both gonna fail" to people that were in LDRs, which doesn't help things at all. No one's doing that now though so I don't see what the issue is.
My LDR didn't last, but I don't regret it one bit. It was a learning experience and it has earned me a very good friend.
ya
i could be in an LDR but it would have to be with the same kind of person a non-LDR would work with
problem with online relationships is that people are [I]way[/I] more likely to rush into them and so they tend to blow up very fast and/or suddenly
personally i just hang out and let the tide throw me around until something happens wherever it comes from
i've had enough bad experiences to know not to rush regardless of if i'm lonely or not

Same. It's not easy to suck it up and accept being lonely all the time, but it's a hell of a lot better than getting hurt by rushing or being rushed.
someone become my bf pls
add me on steam for bf interviews ;)
What are the requirements.
[QUOTE=Thomo_UK;51386850]What are the requirements.[/QUOTE]
a penis or penis substitute
just have a schlong, any schlong will do
I completely forgot while writing my last post, but my brother is actually in a LDR with a girl from Brazil. They met a year ago when she was here in Spain during an exchange, but she had to fly back a couple of months after they started seeing each other. My brother actually took a month off of work AND college this September to fly over there and be with her.
I really feel for him cause they bond really well, and it must suck not to be able to see each other often... But still, they communicate frequently and they seem happy, so I wish'em the best.

I'd do a selfie, but my hair and face are so unkempt right now that it'd just be embarrassing. I'll take one after my haircut :v:
