There's one thing I learned from dating websites, some men and woman are looking for love, but most men and woman are looking for a self esteem booster. I don't have to explain the love part but with the self esteem booster, these men and woman get that warm feeling in their hearts when a thousand guys or gal's message them at once, even if it's for bad intentions. It makes those men and woman feel loved, but it's a shame because I personally think that no one needs dating sites to find love... It's a nice tool and it can be fun but it can also be very stressful... I say it's better just get out in the world and continue to do what you love to do. Eventually you'll run in someone that shares the same interest and you'll hit it off as friends and progress from there.

Haha yes! You see, I was one of those guys on OkCupid or some other site looking for love. But, it's a no win situation with those websites so I just stopped... For me, it's simply easier to meet a woman in person whether it's at a bar, at church, adventure outing, major event, volunteering, or even at work, haha.
This can be a bias statement but whether you're a man or a woman, I feel the secret to winning anyone's heart is that you have to have total confidence and be yourself. If a man or a woman doesn't like what you have to offer then you should not sweat it, there's 7 billion people on Earth and a few up in the ISS, you're bound to find someone... Whatever trial and error, continue to do the things you love to do without any hindrance from the outside world/opinion and smile each and every morning when you wake up for you don't know what surprises that God may bring you that day.

Depends on where you go Lynx...
I'm a musician and gig around a lot so I see a lot of lovely young ladies enjoying themselves with their friends. You don't have to drink to have a good time you know...
If I may make a suggestion, get a group of your friends and go out for an evening of Karaoke! Whatever constrictive feeling is bothering you inside will help break the ice when you get up on stage and start doing your thing... Heck, you can even sing your favorite Christian songs, the song list's aren't usually limited to secular songs. haha
When you're comfortable go around the establishment and mingle, meet some new people, they're not as bad as you may think... LOL! But keep your judgement of others to yourself, you'll be fine Lynx!

I never paid for being registered on them. I learnt a lot, if i could say (I learned more about me surfing there. Things I never knew, by the way). So I won´t discourage any to explore himself or herself those sites, except when using it to lie, to cheat on, to scam, to hurt people.
I´ve seen online sites served me for healing. I have met a bunch of ladies there (and afterwards personally, lively, person to person) and, after I divorced, interacting with people online boosted me to know things I never had to deal personally with my folks but again, as you said, that type of boosting you clearly mentioned is worthnothing to be avoided and, profilactically, I´d better meetig a person at distance, than telling them what I see, because -as Jesus said- "From the abundance of the mouth THE HEART SPEAKS"
Life is too short to waste our time on those who seek boot-lickers.

A tool bar, perhaps, will help people to explore his/her border lines and their social limits but, at the end of the days, he/she surfed the www to know how the robes are abroad: I compared my country and have found out "the sky is the limit" (well, sometimes!)
