I met my STBXH online and before that had a 6 month relationship with a guy I met online. Like KML I think I'm good at "between the lines" Part of my job is talking to people and deciding if they would be a good fit, so I guess it is a natural strength that people either have or don't..
MR BIG LOTS - LMAO!!!!! That happened to me once. Who are these people??
I think in the past pre-M I went wrong by thinking it was a great match based on emotion. That high of butterflies and passion, etc. And now, I'm looking at things through the lens of friendship, communication, not trying to immediately suss out everything about them and need to know where everything is going.
Funny story: I once ordered a fish on a date and when it came it was an ENTIRE fish. eyes, tail, bones, and all. You try having a conversation, looking poised and graceful, while dissecting what's on your plate!
I always looked at online dating at an experience , maybe you'll meet someone nice, maybe you'll meet someone who becomes a friend, or maybe you'll have a funny story to tell.
