Online is so different than meeting someone in real life. The person could be 1000 miles away. Or they could just be looking for someone for a one night stand. Sometimes when you meet them in person they don't seem anything like what they seem like online. Sometimes you seem to hit it off great with someone online but you just don't seem to hit it off once you meet them in person. It's strange... I guess shyness plays a role in the matter too. I agree that you need to be careful meeting people online but if you meet someone in a bar they could be looking for a one night stand too, you don't know them either. Personally though, I love the power of the internet  I've just recently split up with my boyfriend. We were together for 10 years and he'll always be a close friend. I met him online, if it wasn't for the internet I would never have met him considering we lived 200 miles apart before we moved in together. I was at college at the time, had no friends and started posting on a band forum, I went to a few meetups and met a lot of awesome people including my ex. Actually, all the people I met from that forum were like they seemed and the people I hit it off with online, I hit it off with in real life. There's also a married couple with a child who met on that forum and a married couple who met in a chatroom before joining the forum. |

The last nice guy I interacted with was a guy in my history class last semester. On exam day he gave me a bluebook because I forgot mine. He sat beside me the whole semester and didn't talk or even look at me once...but I admired him from afar (he was cute and always had something interesting to say). I know it's not much of an indicator that he truly is a good guy but that was seriously the highlight of my day...or month even. I don't even know how he knew I didn't have it because I didn't even say I didn't have one (maybe the frantic way I was acting).
I wish I knew some more nice guys. Most of them don't seem the slightest bit interested in me. Like one in my Design class...I tried talking to him but he's like...uninterested in being my friend or something lol. Other than being nice he seems pretty much opposite of me so maybe that's why? Or maybe there is something annoying about me? XD
