There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
So I've decided to give this Internet dating thing a go. My first one was hilariously bad, the poor bloke thought that Scotland was down South. And no, I didn't go on a date on Shetland! Second one went well, but then he cancelled the follow up, so I don't know. One thing I. Finding is that it's hard to keep track of all the different messages you get through. And then deciding which ones you want to reply to.

I forget who Im talking to/what Ive talked about. Sometimes my friends will ask about one of the guys and I have noooo recollection of who it is!
Internet dating is good, but you do have to have a thick skin about it.x

I met my current partner through Match so I have to say it worked well for me :) Initially I was really embarrassed to admit this to anybody but I spoke to my sister about it and she knew quite a few people who were now getting married after meeting on Match so it gave me more confidence.

I had that problem too on my brief time on pof. At one stage I was messaging like 8 guys all at once!
I never met anyone in person from it, I was just looking for someone to chat with really. And then I kind of got back with this guy I'd been seeing anyway so I don't need it anymore. It's kind of a buzz when you get a nice message though, and yes I got the weird ones too.
Anyway, good luck and I agree about looking on general interest sites too. I know someone who met their guy through a My Little Pony site!
Funny enough, I met my man on POF. And I didn't even join it looking for anyone in particular, I just joined out of boredom one day, as horrible as that may be.

I was on POF briefly, and went on two dates. Both dates were rubbish and I haven't spoken to the guys since! I'm not bothered though! I've since deleted my account.

I went on pof, met the man of my dreams and met up with him after talking constantly for a week. Two weeks later we were engaged. Now we are married with a baby on the way. He is perfect for me and he was only living around the corner. There are some idiots on pof but there are also some really genuine normal guys! You have to be careful but it is possible to find your perfect match!
Yes. It might seem strange/quick but if you knew us you would understand. Even our family and friends agreed it was the right move and were fully behind us! I've never been so happy in my life. We are very similar and I think that's why we work so well.

How long have you been together now? :)
I've tried internet dating in the past - POF I never really got on well with. OKCupid however, I found to be a good dating website. I have now met 'the one', though not online. ^_^
Watch the sunrise all alone
Sitting on the tracks
Hear the train come roaring in
Never coming back
Laying quiet in the grass
Everything is still
River stones and broken bones
Scattered on the hill
I hope it's OK to resurrect this. I've met someone on POF, we've been on a few dates, and he's lovely. I'm taking things slowly as I'm quite a cautious person and this is my first relationship, but so far so good. :)
How's everyone else getting on?

Aww I'm glad to hear that you've met someone and it sounds like it's going well for you both. :D
As it's your first relationship and someone you met from the interwebs I think you're definitely doing the right thing by taking it slow. Just enjoy yourself and it'll work. ^_^
I met someone on POF and we're together now. He was one of the first guys who spoke to me on there and we hit it off pretty well. He's the only guy I felt comfortable enough to give my number to and after just over a month of talking we met up and hit it off right away.
I'm glad I went on POF for the experience of online dating but of course mostly for meeting my boy. :)
We've both deleted our accounts now as we don't feel the need to visit POF again. xD
I hope everyone else is getting on well too. ^_^
I did manage to get a stalker from POF, which has creeped me out a tad. :|

EEeeeep! How exciting! I'm happy for you.
I've had a bit of luck myself, been on a few dates with a lady and all things are going well, she's not even freaked out by the MH crap.
How do you broach the MH stuff? I haven't gone there yet as I wanted him to know who I really am, rather than everything being tainted by my schizoaffectiveness. I'm going to have to talk about it if things progress, because I can't wear long sleeves forever and if I ever stay over his, there's going to be the issue of popping the pills in front of him...

Personally, I just come out with it, I think it's fairer that one because I don't like covering up so she would have seen on the first date so I just come out and told her and told her about scars and all that.
