I use them because
I'm usually shy before I get to know people - the bash was an exception as I felt like I already knew you lot.

I don't really go to places where you 'meet people'. I don't do clubbing, don't drink that much and all of the blind dates I've been set up on have been friends of friends that are hopelessly unsuitable.

Online dating works for me as you get a bit of a feel for someone, you know if they're interested or not instead of the shy hopping round that occurs in real life if you're as bad at reading the signs as I am.

Until 3 months ago I had NO spare time as I was always working. Then I had 21/2 months out of work and couldn't afford to go out and my self esteem took a bit of a hit and I put on some weight. So catch 22 really.

At the moment I've sworn off net dating thanks to the arrogant fuckwit I met last Friday, but guys I've met in the past have started to crawl out of the woodwork and email me after months of no contact, so not sure how strong my resolve is.

*would be open to b3ta dating, but with a different username. Not sure how well it would work though as I already have a picture of me in my profile, so it'd be a bit obvious*

God that was emo, sorry.
