I met my husband through Yahoo personals. I think maybe it does work better for the women than the men, as I had a very large amount of men writing to me, and there were jerks in the bunch but many were very sincere. He said he received like a dozen letters in a matter of years, and I received more than that in one day. I am a big believer in on-line dating, especially if you are in your 40s.
No not really… I think it works equally for both. Have you tried it yet to see if it works for you or not? You also might want to ask this question on the singles and dating section of yahoo answers. Try or These sites are safer and secure them most sights. Good luck to you. Try yahoo personals too.
yes. the reason is this: there are so many guys on there that if the woman is good looking, she pretty much has her pick. however, on the other hand, if the woman is ugly, then i would think that she’s in the same boat as the guys.
Yes they want to get to know the inner part of a man. and they can do that via internet before they go any further in dating. and the internet gives them options. Its not like you can go to a bar and pull three men to the side and say ok tell me something about yourself.
It hasn’t for me. I have been on match and am now on yahoo. At least on match I got responses when I joined. On yahoo hundreds look at my profile but few respond and most of them have no photo and send an ice breaker instead of an email. I have meet 2 guys off of it so far , one wasn’t interested in going out again (my guess is because I didn’t want to go to “his place” on the first date”. The other was a man who was so uncultured and country, that he hadn’t even had childhood immunizations. All the men seem to want sex and be recently divorced with several small children. They all seem to be into the “simple” things, meaning poor.
I think the answer about the good looking women was right on the spot. I have used online dating and I have had a lot of friends use online dating. I am good looking and very successfull, yet only one woman in 4 responds to me and I receive at best 1 or 2 emails from women who find me. The good looking women I have met are swamped with offers while the average ones seem to have only a little more success than I do. It’s still easier than doing it in person, so unless you are a hot woman, it’s a little bit of work. But for overall success I would say it’s the same for everyone. It certainly gives you much more access to people than you would have out in the real world.

It worked out very well for me and my wife. We met on line over 6 years ago and are still together. You get out of it, what you put into it.

Well, if it’s working for the women, it has to be working for the men, too, right? Otherwise, who are these women meeting?
