Fuck dating, just ask the bitches if they want a root, if they say no, tell em to lay down while you have one

Booyaa to that!! Just walk and spit it out without even thinking about it, she won't hate you for trying. But if you've greasy hair, paisty skin and a faded black HL shirt, then cyber dating is your diamond in the rough.

I wish I had a HL shirt . I do have an ultima 9 shirt tho .
by "cyber-dating" I assume you mean asking someone out over the net, not some weird equivilent of "cyber-sex".
If it's the former, I'm all for it. another way of trying to meet a suitable girl.
If it's the latter.... well, see my post on the wizard hat

ICQ is a great way to find chicks, I met a few good one nighters on ICQ also met my girlfriend of 2 years.

best thing about cyber dating is that it doesn't matter how ugly you are, you can always pick up . . . worst thing is that sometimes that 18 year old "girl" could possibly be a 42 year old gay construction worker or someshit . . . that's why i rely on old fasion techniques such as "try before you buy"

The problem with trying a servo chick on for size is what if they say no and you have to go to that servo again and again and again?
A-w-k-w-a-r-d.
Cyber-dating is wierd...I'd prefer to pick up IRL (so to speak) of course this is coming from a guy who hasn't had a date or a *boing* in over a year.

haha your all so open. whats up with that =p.
I'm not sure bout this 'cyber dating' but whats wrong with chatting to someone on the net for awhile, getting along well then meeting up somewhere to see if you get along (actually to just see if their pics werent fake... haha) and then taking it from there? Totally nothing wrong with it!
Servo chick -> DO NOT just ask outta nowhere 'wanna go out with me'. Because real life isnt the movies (ive found this out the hard way.. lol) Just get your petrol from there everytime you fill up and TALK TO HER. Dont just use 'seeing her a few times' as an excuse to ask her out because sure you like her but she prolly doesnt remember you unless you take action!. So just chat for a short time everytime you go in not for too long. And after awhile you can talk to her for abit longer, then see if she wants to do somethin =p..
btw which servo is this.. maybe i'll go check it out.

If you go to the same servo all the time, just ask the chick for a root everytime you go there. Eventually she'll get sick of you and probably say yes

Nothing wrong with it. It's just a new way of meeting people. I met my first real girlfriend online, and actualy was seaching for a girlfriend online when I met the second girlfriend (hey, it worked once). I have also made a good friend online, and dated one of her friends. Then my current girlfriend of 2 and a half years met a friend of mine over the net, and then I met her at a party...
So if not for the internet, I would still not have had a girlfriend. YAY FOR THE INTERNET!

If you go on the net looking for a girl friend then i think you will get into trouble, if your just looking for a friend then its the way to go,
short history,
5 1/2 years ago looking for someone to talk to on the net found a girl in Hobart, started talking,
1 year later she came to sydney to meet up,
for the next 3 years we saw each other few times a year during school holidays ect, now she is living with me for the past year,
it can work out but i've heard of bad stories of ones which didn't work out, so be carefull
just like a car you want to road test it first before you decided to sign the lease

I'm really unsure about this way of dating personally, I myself am deprived of a women at the moment, and the thought of cruising along the net and finding a chick i would get along well with (in bed) has crossed my mind, but I sort of abanded that idea ever since i got a virus on my computer and came to the conclusion that the internet is dodgy.
But in all seriousness, i prefer to chase or let the girls come to me (like they always do), theres just something artificial about cyber-dating, but maybe i havent given it a chance so i might never know what might arise from it.

The artificialness of it is kinda the point. It's different.

Pfft, News. Like I said, first girlfriend off net, second girlfriend I actualy searched for online, third I met through a friend I met online, and the girl I am with now met a friend of mine online, and we met when he took her to a party. So yeah, no horror stories. Well, beyond normal relationship bullshit that I probably woulda gotten no matter how I met them.

What's the difference between online and or meeting at a night club, you would get more info out of a person online then you would standing in a dark corner of a club trying to talk over the music playing. It doesn't work.
If you chatting online and you get the feeling it's going well meet them in person see if you can actually get along and or feel attracted. You've got to remember they could turn up and feel like doing the bolt just as much as you do. Bonus.... if there is sparks. my 2c worth

put it this way...9/10 times if u are chatting with a hot chiq behind the screen, usually they wont bother chatting with you much because there's 100000000 over guys chatting with her at the same time orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr she has a BF..
a below average looking girl will be the ones who will talk to you with more enthusiast..cause she's in the same boat as u...
but who knows maybe u are one lucky bastard that the hot chiq wanna get jiggy with it and u were her lucky kebab for the night..
hmm..if ya wanna see some hotgirls online..ermm..join www.friendster.com, and dont forget to add me..

heh, i did the whole 'internet dating' thing for a fair while. I can see how it does work, but i never got anything 'serious' out of it and 7/10 chicks i met were pretty on the 'no thanks' side.
My current gf of 1 1/2yrs i met when i was really really bent at a mates place... i dunno wtf i must of said but it worked cause 2 days later i was getting sms's n shit...
Man, if you're keen, just ask. Just be relaxed about it, what have you got to lose?

i'm not a fan, prefer old fashioned style of actually seeing a person before you start hitting on them (no i'm not shallow, i'm the same as the rest of you )
i can see how it is easier for people on the net tho, it's so easy to talk to people and it just doesn't seem so personal, still not my cuppa tea

Can I just ask one question... Did you at any point ever indicate that you were looking for something "Serious"?
If you put it on a chick who you barely know, the chances are you will always get a no as an answer unless there is some exceptional circumstance of who cares lets go for it, in which case there will never be a "real relationship".

Death row inmates lookin for lurve!
I think trawling ICQ or messenger is in most cases a bad idea, especially if you don't have a picture profile. I loathe it when I get incoming messages from anonymous folk looking to score. You'd probably find your patience quickly wanes with opening statements like "wanna fuck?" and things can quickly degenerate to a reply of "yeah sure I'll fuck you. With a big nail-encrusted stick." This kinda shite is only appropriate if the recipient has already indicated they're looking for a root, ie by way of a personal ad or similar.
Having said that, cyber dating can be successful. I know a few couples who met that way and have been together a long while. I think the key is caution!
