On-line dating

Ok.. so I was never a fan of the whole "on-line" dating scene... Always kinda thought of it as pathetic.. you cant meet people out in the real world and so you meet them thru some dating site and come to realize... they are absolutely nothing you think they are... lol.
But a few months ago one of my best friends told me about a site that he had joined- plentyoffish.com and it was free... So I figure- ah ... what the heck... I will give it a try... maybe it will help me thru the funk that I was in... I havent really dated in over 8 months...
So I joined and it was cool... Had a lot of responses, some idiots, some assholes, and some complete phsycos! But overall I couldnt complain... And as time went on there were a few guys on there that I talked to on a regular basis and actually met a few of them... but that was about it. Then I met one guy... and we emailed back and forth for a few weeks, we talked on the phone for another few weeks, found out that we had a lot of common friends- yet we never met or at least that neither of us could recall. So finally he asked me out on a date. I said yes. But I will admit that I was very skeptical. I honestly didnt think anything would come of it other than a new friend to hang out with... So we got and play putt-putt... and had a freakin great time... I dont think we stopped laughing and joking with each other the entire time. It was honestly the most fun I had had with a guy in a long long time! Then the end of the date came when it was time for me to go and pick up my daughter... and honestly I didnt really want the date to end... so I told him that I was having people over for a fire and invited him a long too... and it was a great night... We all had a lot of fun! Then it came time for him to go home... and I took him and dropped him off... and he didnt kiss me or make any type of move on me... (which was really sweet)... So I left and got home and called him (i know stalkerish! lol! ) but I just didnt want the night to end. And we have been hanging out and having a great time ever since... Who woulda ever thought I would find someone in that manner... but now I am wondering... Its really only been a few weeks since we starting "dating" ... Should I delete my dating account? Should I expect him to delete his? Should I keep it just in case it dont work out? I havent hardly been on in the last few weeks... and I havent replyed to any emails on there at all... but I am curious about him? If he is still on there talking to people... and it really shouldnt matter cuz we aren't "together" but I will admit that it does make me wonder slightly bout what he's thinking about...
What do you think? Do you think I should delete mine already? What are you opinions on internet dating? Can it work?

  1. Best way to meet people is online. I would recommend a pay site if you are serious about it. I am not sure why the thinking is that people online are pathetic but I assure you they are the same people that are at the bar. But in this setting you can easily determine if they are what you are looking for or not.

    I know I get caught up in a hot ass and forget the fact that the girl has troubles. Online helps me at least cool my jets while I look at other qualities she might have. Like nice tits. (Kidding!)

    I can also easily rule out people when they use terms like "soul mate", "the one", "waiting to have sex for marriage", "good girl", "STD", "a man to take care of me", etc...

    I highly recommend it. To the point that I would say it is better then bars or anything else.
