It's worth a try! the insecurities are kind of part of meeting the opposite sex for dating purposes anyway, whether online, or in real life I imagine your insecurities would pop up just the same.

I have not yet had any luck with dating sites but I can actually tell you why. First off most of them require you put up some kind of profile which to me is kind of a "resume" of sorts for dating o.o Resumes themselves are hard enough to talk about myself in a really positive light (though I can do that to an extent, I mean to the point of attracting others) so I have kind of repeatedly not said much on these sites and therefore get very few responses haha, well no. only response I got was a scammer so I got 1 :P

Don't do that. If you're gonna do it, do it all the way, unlike me and put yourself out there and let it be. "this is me" kind of thing and I assume the best way is to be as honest as possible but in a favorable light. Don't fake any of it or you'll attract the wrong ones for sure.

Anyway I can't give advice, except the one that is based on assumptions above so take that for what it's worth haha. I'll be curious to hear your experience with it though and..

Good luck! I hope it will be a big success for you!
