    Does nobody else use the AdBlocker Plus plugin in Firefox?? I (thankfully) never see ads on here, nor really most other sites.

    I'd say the general reputation of the concept of using a site has improved over the last few years, it's become MUCH more common for people to meet via a dating website. Especially when you think about how busier and busier we're getting as a society and particularly the younger generation. Ya know it's not at all just a matter of "only ugly chicks" sign up for those. Even back when I first started checking them out in earnest around 2000 or so I was already seeing no shortage of cuties.

    I almost joined the site for seven dollars to get rid of the banners.

    Re: Has anyone on ants ever tried an online dating site?

    I am on okcupid and think its a cool site. i havent gone on any dates yet because i havent had the time /nervous but id say 75 percent of the girls are actually pretty normal. I get 5r10 messages a day becase im normal have 2 college degrees and i seem to be in an area with a lot of med school/nurses/ law students so they have less time to go out really. good to know i can have a date on any friday really

    This. I'm shocked when I even get a notification of something being blocked. I've forgotten all about ads. ABP is f'n amazing.

    Met a lot of different girls, and have now been dating someone for a year and a half.

    Plenty of Fish. It's free. Just be careful...there are a lot of girls with misleading photos...to say the least.

    See this, I've never understood. Okay, so you initially start chatting up a guy, and you set up a date. The minute you meet, he sees the reality versus the photos, and he's very likely outta there. what do you as the girl misrepresenting herself get out of that??

    Re: Has anyone on ants ever tried an online dating site?

    A friend of mine met a girl on eHarmony, they ended up moving from the northeast to Nashville together 3 months later Still happy and together, several years later.

    Obviously these are hit or miss, just like meeting people out and about. But there's absolutely nothing wrong with them. You're likely to find a better match through common interests than spending 30 minutes talking to some girl at a bar, only to realize that she has a boyfriend. Or to go on one date and have it be shit.

    my mom works with someone that is using an online dating website. the woman has been emailing/texting a guy she met on the website for about 2 weeks now... but she said she's trying NOT to meet him, because she knows he will think she's really fat

    wow, you ARE new. if you were a seasoned vet of am.org, you would know that no one restrains themselves when they have something to say. so fire away!
