betamanlet Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Quick and probably stupid question: If she joined an online dating service she's not just looking to make new friends, right? could be for a self esteem boost.
BG1985 Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 If she really is doing it to make new friends, that's a HUGE warning sign. But no, she's really looking to ****.
justforfun Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 If she really is doing it to make new friends, that's a HUGE warning sign. But no, she's really looking to ****. Rubbish.:rolleyes::rolleyes: If she's looking to make friends that's online dating for...I don't really want to say a relationship in case it turns a way the good ones while all the desperate losers hit on me. I want to meet people and eventually find a relationship but I don't want to rush things. I'm willing to meet people and see whether we could take it further than friends. Ok snarky BG...how successful have you been?:p:p:p
edinsvet Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Who knows exactly what she wanted but you know what they say...... "Where there is smoke, there is fire" or "For every cockroach you actually see there are 50 more hiding in the cracks"
boogieboy Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Shes on the market. If you got a feeling that shes pulling away fom you...shes lookin for someone new. Break up with her before she does it to you.
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 Ahmmm... let me be a little more precise... I mean it'd be unreasonable to join an online dating service with the presumption of meeting people and not admitting a potential relationship, right? I mean, join a dating service and look for people to hang out...
edinsvet Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 People Join FaceBook, Myspace, Orkut, the Tribe or other social networking sites like that to Hang out. People join dating sites to date. Which site did she join?
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 match.com - definitely a dating site
betamanlet Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 match.com - definitely a dating site why smile? It's probable if you want her, which I think is abad idea, that she's just doing it for attention.
Phateless Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Quick and probably stupid question: If she joined an online dating service she's not just looking to make new friends, right? That's what people say who are too chickensh*t and prideful to say what they really want. She's looking for a relationship, she's just trying to save face. Ridiculous. DQ.
edinsvet Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 match.com - definitely a dating site That is not good. I don't think anybody goes to Match to find friends to Hang out. People go there to date.
Phateless Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 That is not good. I don't think anybody goes to Match to find friends to Hang out. People go there to date. "Friends first" is one thing, but saying "just friends" is ridiculous when YOU'RE ON A DATING SITE. This chick has pride issues.
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 The smile was because I still think that there's a difference between MySpace or Facebook and Match. Things are going fine so far but last time I was out on a couple of dates things were going pretty well too and then something unexpected happened... I was just wondering if anyone would join a dating website with the intention to meet new people in general just to broaden their friends circle.
Leia Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 A man or woman doesn't go on Match.com to hang out with new friends . Some girls need to learn to tell it like it is.

I was just wondering if anyone would join a dating website with the intention to meet new people in general just to broaden their friends circle. \ NO, they wouldn't. I was just wondering if you were looking at this with humor, which I hope you are, but since you're asking, I don't think so. No, she's looking for a better deal than you. If you don't care, then you are way ahead of where I've ever been in my life....... But if you're expecting her to reveal her undying love for you, you've got something else coming.. Never date unless you like her less than she likes you.
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) Ey, guys! Hold on! Nothing happened yet, OK?! I was just asking because the last time I was dating a girl, on date #3 I was told 'this was the best date I've ever had with anyone' and then after date #4 I was told 'I don't know if I want to be in a relationship right now...'. We remain good friends, talked about that and it turned out to be genuine (and I was kinda lucky since this girl has some issues with what she wants...). So... just making a reality check here... betamenlet: these are two different girls I'm talking about. And, yup, I'm looking at this with humour! Edited October 28, 2009 by Lakeside_runner
D-Lish Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 It's your situation that is confusing. Are you dating someone that has joined a dating site while you have been seeing her... Or did you meet someone on a dating site and you are wondering if it's possible she joined just to meet people to hang out with...

He needs to learn how to write clearly. and He met a girl on a dating site who said she's there only for friends and he's trying to interpret what that means.
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 I dated a girl in June/July and this turned out be really confusing (the date #3/#4 thing...) - we remain friends. Now I met a girl online, we hang out, things are going well etc. it's just I got a little bit cautious - kind of a 'burnt fingers'-syndrome. Hence my question... I know she's a lot of friends so it's unlikely that she's looking for even more friends. It's just we have a lot in common, like really a lot and I don't want to screw things up.
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 It's kinda cool to see how this post develops I never said that she wrote that she's looking for more friends I don't know where did you guys get that from

You should read some of those dating site forums...we're only here to make friends blah de blah de bollocks. You said I what it seems I should have said in my post only much better!
Author Lakeside_runner Posted October 28, 2009 Author Posted October 28, 2009 Phateless: that makes a lot of sense! Thanks!
Phateless Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 It's kinda cool to see how this post develops I never said that she wrote that she's looking for more friends I don't know where did you guys get that from Re-read your first post. It doesn't make any sense.
