I did online dating for a couple years when it first came out. I had a good time and met some nice guys and met a few jerks (just looking for sex and married!). But I met my husband on a website over 14 years ago. We dated for 4 years (lived together for over 3) before we got married and tied the knot 10 years ago and we are both very happy and well suited for each other. It's not perfect but as close as I think it could be. We were made for each other. I had decided to delete my profile and just focus on my son which is what my heart was telling me but my parents were telling me to get out there and live and date and I was too young to be staying home every night after work. I decided to delete my profile because none of the guys I was meeting understood what it was like to be the sole responsible parent in your child's life and for them to depend on you for everything. I knew that my son was top priority so when I went to delete my profile my husband sent me a message, he was raising his son on his own (his son was 3, mine 5) and everything just clicked. I'm not a big believer in the supernatural but it sure felt like fate to me.
Keep hope alive! You will meet your match and each person you meet increases your odds of it being the one for you. (((Hugs)))
