I have seen many people ( some friends and some people I know ) who date blindly on internet and they found their soul mate or at least their love ones. People found their love, from chatting, social networking site, dating sites, forums (I can't come up with other sources but one can found her or his partner anywhere). I have seen people who met some one on internet, became friends and then fall in love with each other and then got married.... So, my question is that, do you think blind dating works? Have you ever tired to hook up with anyone on internet??? Last questions, will you ever try out to make serious relationship in some one on internet?

I know two people who met their spouces on the internet and so far both marriages are going strong. I think you still need to be very careful though. I would request a double date with friends the first time we meet just to assure my safey. I have never been on a blind date or an internet date, but I have been with the same person for 24 years. I would not have a serious relationship with someone I have only met on the internet and not met in person because even if a person seems really great and they are really nice and all I think you really need to meet someone in person to see if there is actual chemistry. If there is no chemistry it won't work out no matter how wonderful someone is.

I am in total agreement with you. Yes, you're right. You have meet the person to find out the real chemistry between each other. Just from internet you can find bit of chemistry but for real stuff, you have to meet him or her in real.

I learned that when it come to meeting people online, I had to be driven by common sense and not by my heart. Almost everything that was told to me had to be analized and not take at face value. I treasure friendship on line, let time proof his sincerity. Many people I put under my 'microscopic' couldn't take the scrutiny and left. Good riddance!

Yeah if you are a little bit sensible and sharp than there is no chance that others can decive you or take advantage of your innocence.But belive others without using your common sense than you might get into some problem.But i guess in most of cases your sixth sense alarms you about the danger ahead! it is only you who decided about your fate,

I believe internet dates are bad because you never know who it on the other side of that computer. I would never internet date just because there is know way for me to know if the person on the other side of that computer is telling you the truth or are lying to you. You Could think this person is the best and you just can't wait to meat them. Then when you do meat them there are nothing like what they told you for all you know this person could be crazy. I think most women get hurt or even killed this way because they think the person on the other side of that computer is telling the truth. I like to meat a person face to face where there are a lot of people so that way nothing bad will happen to me, I say don't internet date ever.

Yeah, I also have the same thoughts like you, but you never know what could happened. May be in real you find some one you really loves you. Or find a fraud. So its unpredictable. At times it works out and at times it doesn't. Some people like dating over internet and some people don't.
