I was leaving for college several states away, and he was staying in town. Besides, I knew he wasn&#39;t the &quot;one,&quot; and I wanted to be free to possibly meet other people in college.<br><br>So, we had gone out for a drive, and I broke the news to him. I was kind, and explained everything. He sat tinkering with the keys in the ignition the whole time. Afterwards, he said something along the lines of, &quot;So, can we go out this weekend?&quot; I explained that I had just broken up with him, and that I didn&#39;t want to go out anymore. I had been very clear with my explanations, and wondered what he had missed. I asked him what he had been thinking about the whole time, wondering if he was really sad, and had been thinking of missing me. He replied that he had been thinking about his car. He had just gotten it recently, though it was quite used (like most high schoolers&#39; cars). I was dumbfounded that he had ignored pretty much my whole explanation, and didn&#39;t even realize that we were breaking up, but I also saw his true colors: he really had been showing more concern for his car, and I had been neglected for a while. I was used to being good friends with guys, and he was of the mindset that girls were too girly, and shouldn&#39;t hang out with the guys, aside from dating. I was a bit of a tomboy. It just wasn&#39;t going to work out.<br><br><br><b><font color="#ff0000">Emoteddybearlover&#39;s Story</font></b><br><b>Ok well I was dating this amazing guy for 8 months and I told him we had to take a break.

On their first day of dating they made out right in front of me. i was so hurt, but acted like I didn&#39;t care.

Online dating poses some serious side effects, which if not taken care of shall result in disasters. You need to understand on how online dating can affect your life, habits, routine and time management. Before getting into details, a word of caution to all those passionate online daters: be careful and understand that prevention is better than cure!<br>For first timers, it&#39;s an amazing, new and unseen experience which immediately attracts their attention. But you might end up having a bad company, someone who might mislead you, someone who might exploit you and what not? First of all, extensive online dating can turn into an addiction that kills your precious time.<br>People who tend to get involved in such relationship tend to forget everything else and sit in front of the computer almost throughout the day; such activities not only affect their other work but their health as well. They tend to stay online for long periods, skipping meals and sleep and avoiding their responsibilities. These individuals also drift away from family and friends and start experiencing drastic mood swings. The worst is when they have a problem with the computer or cannot login to the website, they become highly frustrated and keep on grumbling.<br>More cons of online dating are:<br><br>- Risk of meeting a dishonest person who created a profile with a dating site only for scamming other member, telling them he/she is in need of help and would appreciate if they could cooperate with money.<br><br>- Paying your membership fee and then realizing the website has not enough members, so it will be very difficult to find someone.<br>But not everything is bad, online dating provides many benefits too. The Internet provides a wider selection of men and women. With the various profiles shared online, you can gain access to means of narrowing down your search to suit your needs. You will be able to get to know your dream date even before you have met them. Several websites offer online dating services you can take advantage of. This is one way of increasing your chances of meeting your dream date. Staying true to the romantic art of exchanging notes and letters, online dating has taken the next modern step of expressing yourself through the Internet. This adds a mystery into the relationship which is why some people would like to have an online dating relationship before they take the next step of arranging to meet personally.<br>Internet has been a great revolution and probably the very reason for the arrival of the information age, but you need to be careful while using it because addiction to anything is never good. And when it comes to online dating, it is great if you find a genuine person but do not waste your time if you feel it is not for you as there are many more options to find a partner.<br>Jack Carter, <a class="external" href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.dateicon.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.dateicon.com</a><hr size="1"><br/>]]></description></item><item><title>www.gaygateway.net</title><link>http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/www.gaygateway.net</link><author>cmei</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/www.gaygateway.net</guid><pubDate>Fri, 21 Mar 2008 15:34:54 CDT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Hi guys,<br><br>You can share your cruise travel ecperience and look cruise travel mates from <br><br><a class="external" href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.gaygateway.net" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.gaygateway.net</a><hr size="1"><br/>]]></description></item><item><title>Gay and Lesbian Dating Sites</title><link>http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/Gay+and+Lesbian+Dating+Sites</link><author>LesboProud</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/Gay+and+Lesbian+Dating+Sites</guid><comments>This site is dedicated to lesbians from USA,Canada,Australia,Europe and worldwide to seek quality and long-term relationship.I came across it and was attracted by its homepage.I have met lots of interesting girls there.</comments><pubDate>Fri, 15 Feb 2008 23:40:59 CST</pubDate><description><![CDATA[<br><h3>  As our list of Gay &amp;

Just click &quot;<a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/Worst+Dating+Profiles#Edit" target="_self">EasyEdit</a>.&quot;<br><br>singlenlovinit says:<br>One of the worst mistakes that internet dating members make is to not have a photo on their profile. Approximately 60% of dating site members will pass you by without a picture. The image should be fairly current and portray you in an accurate manner. Many people chose to believet that time has not passed them by and use a photo taken 10-20 years ago. <br><br>Another mistake that is made involves body image issues. There is a place in the profile sign up process where you can include your body type. If someone is not atheletic and tone and is 20 lbs overweight, they should not portray themself in a false manner. Feelings get hurt and people waste valuable time chasing something that probably is not going to happen. The worst thing is to mislead your potential date. It always comes back to haunt you!<br><br>Another faux pas is to start describing all the things you don&#39;t like about someone in your profile. Stick with the positive and you will get much quicker and better results. Free internet dating can be rewarding and fun!<br><hr size="1"><br/>]]></description></item><item><title>American Dating Sites</title><link>http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/American+Dating+Sites</link><author>TemlynWriting</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/American+Dating+Sites</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Feb 2008 16:46:13 CST</pubDate><description><![CDATA[ 				<h3><br></h3><h3>As our list of American Dating sites is being compiled, please share your thoughts by <a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/American+Dating+Sites/thread">commenting here</a>!</h3><br><ol><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.matchamerica.com/">MatchAmerica.com</a></li><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.americansingles.com/">AmericanSingles.com</a><br> </li><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.americasinternetdating.com/">AmericasInternetDating.com</a></li><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://americanmatcher.com/">AmericanMatcher.com</a></li><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.singlesofamerica.com/">SinglesOfAmerica.com</a></li><li><a href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.matepal.com/">MatePal.com</a></li></ol><br><hr size="1"><br/>]]></description></item><item><title>Online Dating Pitfalls</title><link>http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/Online+Dating+Pitfalls</link><author>MFL1</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://howtodate.wetpaint.com/page/Online+Dating+Pitfalls</guid><comments>Just added a pitfall to watch out for </comments><pubDate>Tue, 12 Feb 2008 07:18:06 CST</pubDate><description><![CDATA[What are some pitfalls you&#39;ve found in your experience with <a class="external" href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.allsinglesmeet.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">online dating</a>? Share them with us -- just click &quot;EasyEdit.&quot;<br><br><br>Getting your hopes up! This is a big problem that I&#39;ve experienced, and so have my friends using online dating services. A person can look just PERFECT for you online, and you end up projecting onto that person a lot of what you think that person is like. When you meet them, finally, it rarely lives up to your expectations. Plus, it doesn&#39;t help that many, many people online misrepresent themselves!<br>--Anonymous<br><br>I totally agree! I&#39;ve found that it&#39;s best not to get your hopes up. In fact, the first time I was to meet my now-husband in person, we both kept in mind that our friendship was first, even if there was no chemistry between us. Thankfully we weren&#39;t disappointed, because the chemistry was there!<br>-- Julia<br><br>I think safety first. The greatest pitfall in the online dating arena especially free dating sites is that they are free for all. Anyone and his dog can sign up pretending to be whoever. You just have to be really careful on the scene these days.

As busy as most of us are today, there is not much time to focus on trying to find a suitable mate. That is why free dating sites are becoming so popular.<br>There are some things that you need to know when you finally make the decision to try a dating site.<br><br>First, you must decide on what site that you would like to try. My advice is that you try several. If you join a free online dating site you have nothing to lose. There are several that are just a high on the quality list as the paid ones. <a class="external" href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.allsinglesmeet.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Allsinglesmeet.com</a> and <a class="external" href="http://howtodate.wetpaint.comhttp://www.datehookup.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Datehookup.com</a> are two that give you the most features for free. <br><br>Once you select the dating site or sites that you want to join, you must start the profile process. When creating a profile,<br>make it upbeat, include a few current photos and don&#39;t mislead people with your weight or age. These are two touchy areas and people are not very forgiving or understanding when they are being mislead. If you start out being dishonest, there will never be any trust. Be upfront when posting your profile and you will have less rejection later.<br><br>Once your profile is approved and live you will hopefully start receiving lots of winks and emails. Don&#39;t feel shy about initiating the contact. If you joined a free online dating site then you must have wanted to meet people. If you are uncomfortable with rejection then you will never be happy dating!! Just have fun with it and keep it light during your first contacts. I always suggest sending several emails before a phone call or you can also instant message if the dating site offers this feature.<br><br>When you feel comfortable with the person you are chatting with, you might want to suggest a meeting. It should be fairly informal and in a public place. I always recommend a cafe or wine bar. They have atmosphere and are safe as well as the fact that most people enjoy them.<br><br>Most important, don&#39;t give out too much personal information before meeting in person. You never know who you are talking to. People can come across in a very seemingly honest and credible way and be totally opposite. There are alot of criminals that have access to the internet . Take precautions and you will be ok.<br><br>Free online dating sites are a great way to meet people in a safe environment if you use the tools they provide. Instant messaging, webchat, and emails give you the anonymity to get to know dating site members without allowing them to know where you live or who you are! Use some good common sense and you will have fun and hopefully meet great new friends if not your soul mate!<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><hr size="1"><br/>]]></description></item></channel></rss>
