Online Dating Advice?
frankgod asks: "I'm a 25/M/US geek who managed to get through school with my singleness intact. I plan on staying single for a while into the future, but I am considering online dating in addition to other methods of meeting local women for casual dating. Any advice on particular sites and tweaking profiles or search results? I've looked at eHarmony , Lavalife (sparse local results) and Match.com (seems to be best of the bunch.)"
If you have to post this as an "Ask Slashdot" you have no hope at all. You are however, not "alone". Terrible pun.
Most of the people on these sites are there for a reason, they have little/no social skills and are always werid freaks. My flatmate brings enough women home to please the US Navy fleet, but he meets them all online. They're ALL either divorced or single mothers and they're all desperate to get married.
Good luck though!
