Dating online - profiles and perusing
I thought I would start a thread for people who want to put their online profile names at dating sites for people to check out. And I know lots of people here love reading dating profiles.
Regardless if you are single - I know plenty of people have open relationships or are poly. Plus I personally think it's fun and interesting to read dating profiles. Especially okcupid ones where the extra questions are- I love reading the extra questions for light and interesting reading when I need to take a break from homework. I will ante up and give mine. Mine is at okcupid - Imperfectcandy As a note: To find people on Cupid, you have to not be using the mobile app. You have to use the browser version and click on "find a user" and write in the user name. The mobile apps don't have this option. I also have one on Plenty of Fish but it's pretty much defunct. Same thing there as well. If you want to search for someone, you need to be on the browser version, not the mobile app, click on search at the top bar, click on user name search tab that comes up and type in the name. If you are on any other dating site, don't forget to tell us how to search for people! |
Quick interruption
Hey, HB, I think this is a really, really great idea since there isn't a dating site here. It gives people the ability to learn more about someone who catches their eye here, prior to approaching them.

Perhaps it would have been of more interest to people or easier if I had made a thread for femme profiles and one for butches... |

Well, *I* thought it was a good idea, tru. Lol I don't think anyone else did!

well, it may have been a good idea but if people don't post their profile names, then no one will go and check them out or contact them. So, the gist I get is no one wishes to do that. I have had a sudden influx of visitors to my profile though, since this thread was resurrected LOL.
But I'm just as curious as the next person. I like reading about people. |

I have to say I am surprised at the lack of replies given the amount of singletons there seem to be on here.....and they can`t all be shy ! :|
Daisy :bouquet: |
I'm certainly no shrinking violet. I just don't happen to be on any dating sites.
|
If you are shy, wouldn't this kinda be ideal? You are putting down a name to a dating profile for someone to look at, rather than contacting someone for a date?
Hmn. Guess dating sites aren't used much on BFP. Hey ho :) |
I'm single, but don't do LDR's and don't date online. I am not listed on any singles sites either. I live so rural that the only gay person here in my town is ME. I live on a limited income so going out of town to meet someone to date like in Dallas, kinda don't work for me.
I think I need to move, but I can't because of my mom being here needing me. SOOOO that tosses me out of the dating pool I guess....for long while. |
I think online is a great way to get to know someone but as for looking for partner material it leaves very much to be desired I dare say!
|
I am feveralways on Plenty of Fish. I tried OKCupid, but all I ever met were femmes.lol I stay on POF to meet people who live in the same area and might want to do activities. I am not in the market for romance at this time.

The partner prospect doesn't happen until I've hung out with them *non dating* at *least* a few times. But, that's me. :) Fever: POF has more butches yes. But I find the rare person I do meet on OKC I click with much better. I am very patient and I'm not in a rush to date anyone. My profile is just there, like leaving a door ajar. That's about the extent of it. School takes up too much of my time to date. I have one evening a week to give someone and I can't talk every day and most lesbians find that annoying. So... It's just there. It can't hurt. |
And I certainly don't wish anyone who doesn't wish to use dating site to do it. That wasn't the purpose of this thread.
It's just here for those who want to put their profile name up to see if there is anyone local that might have otherwise missed them. Some people aren't good at talking about themselves. At least this way it would be known they were into butches/transguys or into femmes. If you don't wanna use a dating site, don't. I'm just suprised not very many people here do, is all. Not a worry. :) |
I personally don't go to online dating sites, I come to this one to enjoy the many different topics and people and if something more happens, who knows but I do think FB area also keeps people real and honest but still be careful of people not being who they pretend to be.
|
I think that my pof account is jobandisaiah3 and my okcupid is job3, but I may be wrong about both of those names.
I agree okcupid is a cool way to find out very quickly if you think you might be compatible with someone. Plus, I found out about this site from someone I met on there. |
Dating online
The part that I don't like about dating sites is that they seem so judgmental. I see photos and a short profile. I would rather sit down and have a chat with a lady and get to know her.
To me people (femmes) are more beautiful from the inside. It is their personality, their humor, smiling with their eyes, their warmth, kindness, and their brain. It is hard to get to know ladies on-line. Just my thoughts. |
