I met my partner 7 years ago on AOL! We chatted for an hour online, set a time to meet for a drink......went back to his house to decorate his xmas tree......3 months later we were living together, a year after that we got "married" and have been together ever since!

ONLINE DOES WORK if you're honest with who u are, and what you are all about - my old profile NEVER said i was "looking"....rather..it was a nice summary of what my everyday life was like....THAT is how he found me..and thats lead to many years of happieness!

Moral of the "ONLINE MEETING" story: If your online profile looks like a cheap add from the "lonely-hearts society" and is full of info about the person YOU are looking for, trust me, you're fighting an uphill battle. In your profile you should talk about YOU. What makes YOU happy, what brings YOU joy every day. NOT FANTASIES ...reality. Online meetings CAN and DO lead to wonderful relationships...but it's all about honesty on line..... a rare commodity now adays!
