online dating

so i met my current and first bf online and for some reason i am so ashamed and a little nervous to admit it to my friends and family. we've been dating for less than a month and i feel like everything is is getting so shaky. i expressed my doubts lately about our relationship over the phone and i think he's getting irritated with my hesitance. Do you think I should still give it a chance, am I pushing him away? I do really care for him but I feel so confused with this situation especially since it's my first ever relationship.

 

as a female, the only purpose you could possibly have for a boyfriend is to show him off to all your friends and say "HEY EVERYBODY LOOK AT ME, I HAVE A BOYFRIEND! LOOK AT MY BOYFRIEND! I DON'T NEED TO HAVE MY OWN PERSONALITY ANYMORE BECAUSE I HAVE A BOYFRIEND TO HAVE ONE FOR ME!"

so what could you possibly get out of a relationship with a guy that you're ashamed of?

 

.... and so do 372 others on this forum.

 

i bought a madonna record from amazon... :frown:

 

Don't worry, there's plentyoffish.com, you'll find another match.com, you won't always be sadandlonelywithnobodytohold.com until you die.com

You're being way too vague.com, hence us burly men trolling you like a little troll-doll.

 

I just feel so pressured with all of these things like having to hide how I met him (he also wants me to hold off on confessing that part until our relationship is very solid to avoid judgment and all). He's also the first person I've ever fooled around with and have been intimate with too and I feel just so new to everything it feels a little suffocating, my parents are also telling me to not take my relationship so seriously and just stay casual with him.

 

it's so simple. either you like him and it makes no difference how you met, or else you only want him as an accessory and you'll keep him around just until you find a more fashionable accessory.

 

why should it matter where u met him? my ex i met online, we was together 4 years, and still best friends.

most people meet online, its probably more popular then meeting a man in a bar or somehthing

 

OK. Seriously.

Why do you need to tell anybody you met him online? Just make up a story, whatever. If all goes well you can one day confess to it and say "you idiots no NOTHING". If it doesn't go that well nobody will be the wiser.

If both of you do the same thing, obviously.

 

I really fail to understand the overall question here but not taking it too seriously is good advice, that should go for all relationships. You don't want to get upset over stupid shit like the opposite sex.

If the relationship is not going how you want and you want it to continue, communicate with him to make it how you want it. If you're just unhappy then end the relationship. Simple as.

 

you sound like you are 10...lol if you are 20 just forget it... you failed. Tried online dating once, and it was just fucking lame, all it is is a peep show.

 

I met my boyfriend online - it's nothing to be ashamed of, you would be surprised how many people do it these days. If you are more ashamed of your boyfriend vesus the meeting on the internet thing, it might be best to step back and think about what you really want.

 

you don't have to tell people that the person you are dating is someone that you met on the internet.

 

Just drop him already.

 

Hey guys, quick question here.

I met a girl on POF and sent a few emails back and forth getting to know each other, both asking questions etc. She seemed interested in me anyway by what she was asking. Told me I was quote "dashing" in my profile photo! That has to be good right? :2thumbsup:

It's been a few days since she replied though and I see she's been online since. Now maybe she hasn't had the time to reply which is cool but I really wanted to ask this girl out for a drink or whatever so should I just mail her again and ask? Or will this be a bit too pushy?

Or just wait it out and if she doesn't reply just take it that she was just being polite and not interested?

 

I honestly don't tell my friends or family that I met by bestfriend and girlfriend online, I just tell them through a friend so they won't ask so many questions. But I don't understand why you are pushing him away if you care about him.

 

You think you have problems explaining! LOL.. try explaining that your gf and you met on CL strictly looking for fuck buddies initially

 

Yes you should ask her and go from there.

 

Touche. Meeting people from the internet is really no different to meeting someone in a bar, its just a different communication medium is all. Bitches will still be bitches whether its through a dating site or a date to dinner. The fundamental properties of a person will not change, therefore how they met is irrelevant.
