Online Dating Advice?

Posted by Cliff on from the 'net-affairs-ain't-all-that-bad-anymore-are-they dept.

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.)"

    not trying to be offensive or funny but this is really sad. you need a good crop of freinds to meet women. online dating is so shameful. you need to find a group of people you are comfortable with (a group of geeks?) and then through them you will meet women. talk to those women, develop freindships and see who is right for you. sooner or later you will find a woman you like. the internet is for other things.

    am i wrong?
