For me personally

The article A) reads like it was written by someone who dated a cheater and is therefore scorned and B) setting up unrealistic expectations and ridiculous 'warning' signs, because she 'refuses to be embarrassed again'. I mean, some of the things just sound a little paranoid.

I'm sorry, but the whole 'peak time' thing, just doesn't work all the time...nor does meeting within a month, nor does meeting 'family'. I've been with Mahhh Woman for 2 years, and I've known her for 4 or 5 years. She's met no one from my family, and she's only met one of my close friends. And coworkers? Really? After how long?

At least those things don't work for people in my particular class bracket. Sorry, but I don't have the money to visit friends and family just because I'm internet dating someone, and they're afraid of getting burned twice.

Maybe It's Just Me,
Dylan

i'm doing #s 1 and 2 right now and i like the idea of #3 but it's hard to get someone to keep their family from me 100 % of the time.

It's late, I'm tired, I had to read this a few times before I understood that e-cheater was referring to someone who was married or otherwise involved with someone else who was prowling the net as a single person.

Poor June is probably in the corner banging her head against the wall again waiting for the misunderstandings to bloom
