					<description>I agree that the only way to REALLY know a person is to meet in person.  Yet I think finding someone on-line is a good option, especially for those of us who don't have a lot of friends with friends to introduce us to.  My recommendation has always been to MEET AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  As you said "show you what you think you want to see, not what actually is. "  That has been my downfall more than once!</description>

					<description>I actually had the opposite experience ... during my learning-to-date again experience after the end of my marriage I ended up meeting my worst dates unexpectedly and in person, and the guy who ended up being the best thing that ever happened to me relationship wise through a casual response to an online message board. We did only do the email thing for 2 weeks before arranging to meet in person though.</description>

					<description>So true. The success rate for online dating is very low (and back then I image it was near null). The best way to meet people is to go out more often.</description>

					<description>I was very uncomfortable about internet dating. But after a good night of sleep I thought to myself, what the heck, let's give it a try. 

A friend of mine told me about meetrich.com. Less than 2 weeks later, I got in contact with somebody. We mailed, chatted, and decided to meet for dinner. That worked really well, so we dated more, and things got more serious. Now nearly 3 months and a few city trips later, we can't get trough the day without seeing each other or at least talking to each other. There is always chance that you meet the love of your life</description>
