RE: Is There A Stigma Attached To Online dating?

Hi all, never posted here before..but yes, I do feel people look down at me when I say I am exploring on-line dating. Maybe it IS because they associate it with desperate older people, but I just think that this is a better way because I can take my time and not be blinded by confusing feelings of Lust/misleading facial expressions, etc before-hand

I do get the odd guy that thinks maybe because I am on-line, I must be so desperate I'm going to let him into my life right away! Maybe they don't see that a lot more caution is needed here simply because it's the internet.....some have been pretty rude too when I don't give out my number or agree to meet right away....
