Oh, and my story.
Once upon a time, when I was young and desperate to get laid, I put a profile on Faceparty.

Got talking to this rather odd girl from Manchester who seemed to have a dual personality. That should have been warning enough, but as I said I was young and desperate.

So I went to meet her. Not only was she incredibly unnatractive, but she had a personality to match. She also insisted we go to McDonalds (which I hate, not because of any political or ethical stance on the place, but because the food is horrible) where she stuffed her face for what seemed like hours.

I couldn't take any more. After she started whinging at me (she'd only met me an hour ago!) I made my excuses and left.

So that, folks, was my one bad experience with online dating. Having said that, I have met a few very nice people on the Interweb too.
