YouMeUs: Exactly! You hit it on with "aren't you just with the wrong person?" in such situations. I'm thinking that there's plenty of guys getting confused as to who they think they should be; 'macho man' 'bad boy' 'good guy' 'lover boy'...etc. because of what they've been told or asked of by so many different women.
I tend to be all of those combined in my own little way, but I'm not out to impress anyone. Take me as I am or find another that's to your liking, I say.
Why try and iron out someone's wrinkles and creases when that's what makes them who they are anyway i hate ironing
2intrigued: A cyber relationship? No. It may appear that way but given that this is an international dating site, most people may not be able to deal with long distance for various reasons so they don't bother pursuing them.
Might as well re-post my response given that the thread has been resurrected.
I think that women (for the most part) don't really know what they want from a man they don't even know so therefor "cyber" relationships are a good place to start. Every person is different and illicit different responses from people so trying to work all that out in person (see first date) can be rather traumatic for a woman. Combine this with the general reality that the art of conversation, if not dead, is really "on the ropes" these days this can make for some rather uncomfortable first meetings. So I would have to say YES they are or at least should be :-)

YouMeUs: Isn't a friendship a form of relationship? So wouldn't an online friendship be considered the same? Wouldn't that also be a cyber relationship?
Men are so darn technical If this thread was about friendship it wouldn't have been gender based
Yes in general most men are "technical" when asked a question it's in our nature. It would seem silly to me to ramble on and on about something unrelated to the question someone asked me and in my opinion rude to them. I respect people enough to try and give them straight and honest answers.
Obstinance_Works: Women like to talk and the fact that they're more imaginative with a looser grip on reality means they embrace most forms of escapism, cyber or otherwise, more deeply than men do. Life is a dream.
I mean you do realize that any sane woman would read your comment and make a mental note to keep you in the ick zone, right?
