As the topic questions, I would like to know if users on GameSpot have ever utilized an online dating service or app.

If yes, please name which one you picked. Also, tell us if you felt it was worthwhile or not.

Well, I made a profile on eHarmony once just out of curiosity, and then I got a message saying that there were no potential matches for me.

I don't know if that speaks poorly of eHarmony or if it speaks poorly of the women who use eHarmony or if it speaks poorly of me, but that probably would have depressed the shit out of me if I wasn't just doing it out of pure curiosity.

I also didn't pay money. Like, they let me make a profile for free, but they also had other services that required payment. So, maybe, I just got rejected because I hadn't given them money yet. I don't know though.

I've never even been on a date. The idea of meeting someone so that it may become a relationship just seems awkward to me, I prefer to let relationships grow naturally.

@toast_burner: what with a dude :-P

I been contemplating use e dating service for kicks but my last strip of dignity won't let me.

I'll try it and post results if someone else tries it with me. I do need a woman and it's 2014 we shouldn't care how it happens

Yes, used to use POF regularly. It's not something that I'd use if you're looking for a real relationship, but it's good for getting laid or just having a good time.

U got laid using POF?

Is your line of questioning going anywhere?

You want to ask me something Gerg? Or want me to ask you something more specifically? You said you were in a relationship on my question and i didn't ask you anything more :)

I use POF.

Funny thing is, I've made WAY more women on a facebook page confessions page where people talk about sex, drugs, liars, welfare,baby daddies, etc than on any dating site.

You know why i asked the question and you answered that. I didn't ask you anything else, just to clear everything up :)

Cut down the damn quote trees people...

Anyways, I met my GF on OKCupid. We have been dating almost 3 and a half years now! She actually just moved in with me during November as well so needless to say it is a pretty serious relationship.

I would definitely recommend the site to people. It is free, has a good layout, and it is a lot of fun to use. I remember enjoying going through and reading different profiles and then deciding whether or not to message! It was VERY exciting when you got a message of your own as well!

I will say that I met a couple of duds through the site before my GF, but in the end it was certainly worth it.

A couple users need to review the Code of Conduct.

- No spam

Includes but not limited to: promoting personal sites, making comments which have no discussion value (such as "first" or “bump"), quote pyramids or empty quoting, battle threads, YouTube spam, "chat" threads, and creating threads with little to no text where off-site content is linked or embedded. This also includes starting forum threads to promote your latest podcast or written review on another site. Repeatedly bumping and replying to spam will result in your ability to post being temporarily and then permanently revoked.

Please do something about that.

What's clear to you?

You used to visit POF for getting action before your relationship. Whats not clear to you?
