online dating

 

I have recently had some success with a dating strategy I always thought was for old people and people who just weren't compatible with anyone. I had always thought of myself as a fairly compatible person and that I was just finding the wrong people for my personality. After last semester I started to feel as though I just couldn't ever find anyone who would love me for me. I would find people who wanted similar things that I couldn't stand or people who I liked to be with but didn't share the same vision for the future that I do. So when I finally decided that I would try my best to find a girlfriend who has both of these things before my senior year I came came to a conclusion about the means. I knew that I would try an online dating service because it would bypass the whole bar scene and the uncontrollable nature of meeting love on the street. I registered with an online dating site and filled out the whole profile. Within a week I had a bunch of hits from women who matched my profile and the various conditions I want in any relationship that I start. I started to chat with a couple of them who seemed the most promising and they very quickly went down to just one who was most like the type of woman II would like to spend my time on. Her name is Cheryl and we have since been on three dates and have another one planned for this weekend. I am one of those cases where these sites actually work and we have clicked very well. We both really like the same things and have found a lot more things in common between us than the site actually asked about. Now I am sticking around for the summer because I want to try and solidify this relationship before the fall starts and my schedule becomes quite congested. I don't know about the future because I have never been in a relationship that felt this right before but I think that this relationship can turn in to everything that I hope it will be.
