    Early 20's.

    Just like with everything else online, everything about that person must be taken with a grain of salt. Its a handy tool, but it has to move offline at some point, and when it does, it needs to be kept in public areas for awhile, just like regular dating.

    I think it helps because it just gives you a chance to filter out a lot of people to find one that you prefer. As long as you talk a bit first before meeting it should work. Does it always? No. I've met some women I wish I wouldn't have but have had some success too. My brother met his wife of 4 years online so it's possible. I'm 34

    "Me. My age group is between the range

    of eighteen years old, to thirty-eight."

    "Only single / never married; no children."

    "I just Look at pictures and read Yahoo!

    PERSONALS profiles. On occasion,

    send one of those Yahoo! PERSONALS

    'ICE BREAKERS'."

    "I won't subscribe to Yahoo! PERSONALS

    to make contact with any of these women."

    "I am currently homeless, had been homeless

    since 7 September 2006."

    "I wouldn't bother to deduct cash from my debit

    card, to pay the monthly fees, while I'm eating,

    sleeping, showering, and shaving inside some

    homeless shelter."

    "I just might reconsider 'Online Dating' as an

    option for meeting single women, once I have

    a home somewhere, ( without a roommate ),

    and have enough money to fit into my budget."

    Okay I am 15. I think online dating is really just another way to meet that special person. I think it is just fine as long as you are careful because it can be extremely dangerous too!
