Don't spend all your time looking for someone who fits your 'type' because God doesn't play by your rules. If you restrict yourself to very specific criteria, you're sure as heck going to miss out on some great man.

Yeah, honey. Being open to dating a man is being more open to me. I do find that I am less attracted to someone who is into subcultural aspects I spent more time around than I should have and have come greatly dislike/want to avoid in my own life. I.E. Anime.

I started this thread because I was contemplating joining a dating site and wanted to know how online dating worked.

You didn't say that. :)

That's because I don't want to discuss putting my picture and some personal info online like that out in the open. Let me know if you (dear readers) are people I can ask Qs to about it.

So I guess you admit it doesn't exist?

I bet you can also find some good citations in Rerum Novalis.

it's amazing that you got married then.
[/quote]Because it wasn't legal in most states. Hence Win's anger towards Statists.

I am not sure that dating sites are the ideal platform through which to meet someone. I am not bashing internet dating- it would be incoherent of me to do so- but dedicated dating sites I am not sure about.
I would recommend meeting somebody over Phatmass, but everybody here is cranky and generally also like to troll innocent people. But you would know that already. :)

[/quote]Ask people who have been happily married for more than ten years. I wouldn't join a dating site, people would be faking who they are to be appealing. Do the things you like and enjoy and you'll find people with similar likes. Obviosly stay away from star trek and anime conventions. I liked drinking and socializing and met my wife decades ago in a pub. It working for us so far.

I'm amazing at dating advice
[/quote]If we'd hung out together, I'd have to figure out how to be a wing-man for a stealth fighter jet.

If were aren't, then why are my cats freakily staring out the window at one in the morning?

dating apparently leads to the production of offspring who behave like some of the previous posters

Like Culturewarrior, yeah, my kids can be culture warriors. They will come out weird anyway since I'll help raise 'em.

Also, I'm not sure how many would be willing to go a bit East, theologically, at least in the wedding.

Welp, if we are talking Eastern Catholic, probably most. If we are talking Eastern Orthodox, perhaps significantly less. :smile3:
On the other hand, there is the whole cranky thing. If you were to say that you prefer the Divine Liturgy to the Pauline Mass, you might start a flame war. :|
