They're only seeking friends if you're unattractive. Try being attractive and I bet the sentiment will change.

This is why you must attach a picture of Gordie Howe to your profile. It worked on Mrs Crabapple.

a thread where if it's not a complaint, however direct or indirect, about a girl in real life, it's about a girl on/from a website. And in most cases, they just happen to be from a website.

They're not really seeking new friends. They are seeking nearly anonymous sex partners.

I'm tired of these sites. I'm taking several months off from them. It was spurred by a pointless situation with a Russian girl (born in the US) which ended with her sending me bizarre emails about "not harboring any ill will" but that she "wasn't what I was looking for" whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean. It became increasingly clear she hadn't planned on it going anywhere from the beginning. The whole thing was stupid, meaningless, and aggravating.
I spent the following weekend getting drunk and dancing with porn stars. It was way more fulfilling. I'm just going to party now. I'm fed up.

effort is the absolute worst thing you can do when trying to find a relationship. if shit doesn't just happen, then it doesn't happen. get used to it.

Oh god the ads at the bottom on strangetalk are too funny. I think I may have just found a loophole in this whole dating thing. I'm going to marry one of these girls and then live in the Philippines. Lets see them get citizenship and then leave me now. HA!
What do you think the return policy is on mail order brides?

i gave them those loving names accordingly. at least i've been avoiding the guy with the screenname 'MNcock'.

I've heard that no one registers for OKcupid for the dating, anyway, it's for the quizzes.
I wouldn't mind dating again at this point but I'd really like to be friends for a while first and not jump into something right away, that's why I have my status as "looking for friends." I'm sure lots of girls feel the same, Daoist.
I'd also like to not date an STer because it's far too tempting to read their posts once you know their username. Also, Ames is an inbred dating pool and I know half of the people on OKcupid and it's kind of creepy to see them describe themselves.

Right, I get that. But these people often describe themselves as "just" looking for friends.
Either:
A. They're on the totally wrong website for that
or
B. They're liars.
Anyhow, I just wanted to bring this phenomenon to light. So these people know we're on to them.

i'm not sure if the posted salary is really going to counteract the instances of comments like
I spend a lot of time doing nerdy things. Also, I love arguing on the internet, especially winning.

I couldn't help but be reminded in that scene in "40 Year old virgin" where they tell steve carrell's character to hide all that nerdy shit in his apartment before the girl came to pick him up.
