Singles dating: online VS real world?

[starryeyes]

*Do you (or would you) go out with someone you met online, such as from a dating site, chat room, BFP, etc.? (this can be local or long distance or both)

Yes! I have had several relationships with people I have met online, both locally and long distance.


*Do you go out on blind dates? (set up by friends, co-workers)

I have never been on a blind date, but I wouldn't mind. I might questions some of my friend's judgement as to the type I prefer to date, but I am open to meeting new people, regardless of it materializing into a relationship. Friendships are great too!

*Would you go out with someone who has dated someone you know?

Depends who. A close friend, absolutely not! I value my friendships too much, and it would bother me if a close friend was with an ex of mine. If it is an acquaintance, maybe. I guess it depends!! :-D

*Which do you think is better: meeting and dating people from an online source, or meeting and dating people you meet in real life?

I would love to meet someone in my local area, of course, but that isn't always possible. The Internet gives us such a broad spectrum of people to connect with, I think it's more likely to find someone compatible, especially in our community which is already small. As long as the person embodies the qualities I am looking for, I am ok with either.
