| Yeah I've noticed the Quiver thing seems pretty dumb, haha. Always get people with random match%'s and stuff.
First week... and tough crowd so far. I signed up for POF and it's kind of humorous to see the same people here and there I'm seeing in OkCupid. But yeah I seriously think KS is making this harder.  |

| Location is definitely key. If I lived in Portland, I don't think I would ever have been single. Unfortunately, not a whole lot of people dig my trenchcoat here in Medford. | |||

| Trenchcoat = sexy
Just saying. But yeah, the whole Quiver thing makes me laugh, actually. I found out one of my classmates is on OKCupid though so we talked for awhile over the chat. That was kinda nice. |

Made me laugh, but it figures with Christian Mingle, right?

| Which is ironic, considering Christians take the body of a man in their mouths every Sunday. | |||

Originally posted by Cteno Wow, lol. I think I'm about ready to give up on this venture by the way. My pics probably don't help, but oh well. After putting some real effort into dozens and dozens of messages with nothing in response back... I won't say I give up, but I'm just straight up wasting my time. And what chick is going to seek out a dude when their inboxes are flooded by the day? I've seen so many delete their accounts after awhile too it's kind of crazy. I'd like to maybe check out eharmony, but at this point what's that going to offer over PoF and OkC? Kind of hard to convince me now. Perhaps I was a little too late on this. I can almost imagine maybe there would've been more success here if I tried it out years ago, but now that the entire world is all about social networking, these places just seem to be too flooded. |

| I guess location is key -- probably not as many girls out in KS as there are here, unfortunately. At least not the cool girls. | |||

Look, Xeo, sometimes relationships sneak up on you and come around when you least suspect. It's great that you tried this out, though. I really don't know what to say more than you should get out there more, be assertive when the time calls for it, but you know, play it cool. |

| Well, I run down some searches on OkCupid across the US off and on, still nothing. I wonder if I can change it on POF to do that too? It's at the point where if I met someone online that's not too far, I would go out of my way to meet them in person. It would be pretty exciting.
But yeah back to square one anyways. I'm back on a 4/10's Mon-Thur schedule here and might look into part time jobs to keep me busy Friday, I'm definitely going to look around my community college. A coffee shop or something would be nice, just being around a lot of people my age probably, etc. Money isn't the issue, just finding a "fun" job on the side and meeting people would be the goal. Maybe you guys have some ideas? That or maybe I can start getting active around my school doing community stuff, no idea. So yeah the issue is probably both me... AND KANSAS!!! |

| Is geek2geek legit?
This chick at my work met her soul mate through some biker site, I mean, maybe one of these will work haha... OkCupid sucks, I could completely careless about it at this point now.  |

| I think that's the site my friend used when he finally got a girlfriend after nearly a decade without. They've been together about 3 years now. | |||

| Yeah I'm just stuck at a wall here. With me having to dump money into health related stuff I'm not sure if I'll make it back to school this year, but sometime for sure. That'll be great for meeting people but other than that, yikes. I'll have to really branch out and maybe check out meetup's around here (been looking into that site off and on lately), or something. My friends at work do their own thing and my roommate is more solitary than I am. Only really have one circle of friends now and we rarely do anything.
Back to being pessimistic about all of this again I guess, lol, but I'll have to keep looking around for other sites and maybe try out the premium ones for awhile. Can't hurt. But yeah I obviously have almost no options at this point anyways. Unless maybe I just move away and meet up with online friends in person someday. Been craving a social life so bad for ages now, it's bad. |

| I've had great success with OkCupid, but I guess it really just depends on your location. If nobody else around you is using it, there's really no point.
Might as well give geek2geek a try, I've heard good things about it. |

| I'll still randomly browse OkCupid at work on my phone once a month or something.
I have to say, it doesn't get more awkward than seeing someone you went to grade school with, and have bumped into since off and on, straight up asking for one night stands. I know her first name, which is the start of her username, then it's her last name. And the pictures. Awkward, but kind of depressing I guess since I somewhat know her... wow, lol.

| See, with all you hear about killings through meeting on the Internet, I know people are really sort of afraid to our themselves out there. While others thing it's just out of desperation. Though my opinion? Meh, whatever floats your goat | |||

| You know, I've actually been tossing around the idea of giving one a try lately. More out of curiosity than anything...and I kinda realized that my world just got a lot smaller so to speak anyway, with the accessible and datable people (I'm surrounded by a lot of not so good people in this area) being people I've known my whole life...like, I shit you not, I was the only girl born among a bunch of dudes, counting my cousins and family's friends kids (which is basically my whole neighborhood. Well, other than the riffraff. But yeah.
**shrugs** I don't look down on anyone for using it or for not wanting to use it. Like Benja said, whatever floats your goat. :p |

| I met my girlfriend online. I like how it's more to the point. Everyone knows why you're there. When you meet someone in real life you sort of have to beat around the bush more. Maybe that's just me, though.
And Kate, I know some good guys out here. |

| OkCupid. I really didn't care for any other sites I've tried. | |||

Originally posted by FX Actually, I think you completely nailed it. I'm the type of person who doesn't really mention his feelings about people, except for on the internet, and on OkCupid, I really felt as though I could really throw out who I am and what I was looking for. No point in hiding it if you're going to be looking for somebody to date, no? |
