OP, you should change the title of this thread to "Delving for love in a vast world of pies and tea." My feed needs something more  fancier to be infested with


Ghost is lovely no doubt but you're the jelly to my peanut butter.

@Melrache: It's like anywhere else, really. The longer you're here and the more frequently you talk to someone, the more you can like them. I've had two relationships with friends on here and both were very happy (for the most part) encounters. It's not completely impossible. Even less so if you are living in the same country and can meet up. I don't see why people find it do obscure - Yes it isn't that conventional, but it's not all that different from meeting a stranger in bar. As long as you can trust them, and you can at least have some reassurance that they are who they claim to be, it's not a big deal.

So OP... You are looking for a nice guy with a lisp... :D


Pretty much.  Or just something noticable about them that's a bit quirky. Think Michael Cera-esque. 


Michael Cera? The one from Scott Pilgrim? Oh I see what you mean.
Hell, even I'd be gay for Michael Cera! SCOTT PILGRIM REMEMBER?

Okay, I'm crazy in the lovable sense, not the 'actually-a-fat-creepy-old-guy-preying-on-naked-16-year old-boys' way.


Watch out Logan...

I suppose, but I guess it's somewhat easier for gals to get those kind of encounters than for guys. Considering the ratio on the site is enough to make it so. And the country probably affects a lot as well. I don't really have anything against online dating in general, just not been fan of what I've seen on the site so far.

No, usually I choose to stay single. I guess I'm lucky in the sense that I found someone that is willing to deal with my craziness now. XD
Just thought I would spread some food for thought. Whatever you decide, I'm sure things will work out one way or another.

I'm kinda hesitant to ask, but WTF is hatesex?


It's sex without love and/or romance... Or friendship of any kind.
It's sex, infused with hate.


Are you talking about hate sex or HATE SEX?


Well, I initially said HATESEX, but I didn't realize there was a difference.
But Gem is right, we must help the OP!


Right, but first let's just get this one thing straight and that is, I believe that saM is the originator and master of HATE SEX.


Yep. It's long been a thing for the feed/comments since.  BTW this thread now pretty much belongs to us.


ON TOPIC!

That'd be the one! The quirky little Canadian. =D

(Also, I never realized how many people on BSN actually ended up dating. Who would've thunk?)

Ikr? There's like a super secret subculture of friends on BSN. (Ocrap now people know! :o) with enough stuff to make a crappy sitcom.

OP, just make sure you see the person via Skype and talk for a good while before you meet them. Learn as much as you can about them and if you meet up, meet in a public/neutral place.

I know this sounds like common sense, but I've known people who haven't done even that. It's very silly and very risky.

Will do! I've met someone online before (not a dating site though) and yeah, I made sure to go to a very public place for our first meeting.

I kinda wonder how this works in situations where you're from two different countries. I mean one has to take bigger step than the other no matter what. It's the situation in which I've been for... several years now. :whistle:

@Mel:

Yes. As is often the case with a relationship (or potential relationship) someone has to take a bigger leap of faith. I moved to Los Angeles after 4 months to be with a guy. It didn't work out, but you don't know until you try. Sometimes you simply have to follow your heart. If it doesn't work, you move on, but at least you can say you did your best.

Or in a similar situation where one person lives in LA and the other in London, you both literally meet each other half and move to New York. Everyone takes the same leap. I'm so goddamn smart.

@Raven:

That's a really good idea. Unfortunately for me my boyfriend at the time wasn't willing to move. I either had to go there to make it work or I had to end it. I chose to go because I didn't have much to stay for. It was a big mistake on my part - as he wasn't a very nice person - but I came away regretting nothing.

BSN rule 17111: all threads about relationships inevitably end up discussing hate sex.

Therein lies the rub.

As for the rest of your post, at least you were able to find out rather than be left w/ a feeling of uncertainty as to whether or not it could've worked had you not gone.

I've never used online dating myself, but I don't think there is any reason why it wouldn't work, paticularly if you are in the same country.

Bah, relationships are boring IRL. Besides, I ain't no girl magnet.
