But surely if we extrapolate same-sex online relationships out of the equation….
We would then left with the basic conclusion that for every woman engaged in an online relationship there must be an equivalent amount of men involved too….
Or am I wrong….!,

I'll say this and hope it sounds OK..I have found many women(friends or aquaintances..or even those u just read status msgs of)..
they are online and seeking some form of relationship...however not entirely grasping the fact is that online wise a man is most likely gonna be in contact with several...some he's shagging,trying to shag, and some of course are just great wank fodder
Ive read status's/profiles of women that say
"must be seeking more than one nite stands"
FFS getta fucking grip is my advice..have the meet then let the meet decide if they think its a workable arrangement too |

I've been doing this for four years now as a single woman and in all that time I have never looked for a relationship, wanted one or fallen for someone and got into one
I find it more the other way round people ask me all the time if i'm still single and looked shocked when I say yes and ask why, like I should be with someone else by now |

I'm no longer meeting on here as I've met someone but I will continue my friendships on here and chat on the forums
The other 1/2 was all for deleting his own profile on here but as he chats on the forums too told not to |

 Funny how some women seem to think they are 'the only one' the guy is meeting. 
I shall think about the op some more... |

I gather you are not talking about fab. Yes men do seem cautious but do better on dating websites than women as they have more to choose from, once they get over the initial apprehension of joining. I have introduced several male friends and even help them write their profiles, they now recommend it to their male friends. X |

Perhaps women just have better social skills which are more suited to maintaining the sort of varied dialogue that would keep an online relationship purposeful and interesting. |

"Can't speak for other women, however, I am sceptical of any relationship at this point in my life, online or otherwise.
 "
I feel this way already 
I'm giving up on them |

"I don't get online relationships
I think to want to have a relationship with someone you need to really know them.And you don't feel that you can know someone online?"
No not really people can be anyone they want to be online...ive watched catfish.
Also i think things can be taken out of context when you speak online as you don't get the body language and realness of a person.
I thin you can like someone and get to know a bit of what their persona may be like but you don't really know someone unless you have spent time with them. |

I was not looking or wanting a relationship but one found me on here. It didnt work out but was avoiding relationships pretty well for years.
I also get people asking me where my husband is and very surprised when I tell them I am single. I guess they still probably dont believe me though x |

I agree with that
I have met many guys off here that I have spoken to online and liked them enough to meet them but in the flesh just havnt liked them at all
Tho that's not dating its the same principle talking online isn't the same as face to face |

Don't know about that many guys but the ones I do know on here a relationship is the last thing on their mind In fairness most women I have come across are initially after no strings fun but then if you repeat too often they do change direction at times so maybe its right or maybe its just some people without doing a poll I wouldn't bet on anything.  |

My friend is on a dating site and she asked me what I thought of some profiles. Well was there not some guys from here looking for NSA approaching me that are on dating sites approaching my friend for a serious relationship.....it's a small world. |

I get that all the time. Worst still people ask if I'll get back with my ex. Sunday at his mums memorial service I was sat with him, our daughters, their husbands/partners and stepsons and his sisters all asked if we'd get back together! |

There seems to be a lot of women who are here supposedly just looking for NSA sex and also on dating sites looking for relationships. That must've confusing on how to differentiate the two.
There also seems to be many women and men on here who started off as singles and then hook up with someone and it's all 'my OH' etc. Sometimes this doesn't last long and it's back to singles again, it gets confusing.
You can see it forming too, the cryptic forum posts where it's pretty obvious there's a lot of very pally messaging going on behind the scenes and eventually they become couples.
Now I hear all the protests of 'love can happen anywhere, even on a swinging site' etc and I agree that love can jump up and hit you between the eyes in the
most unlikely of situations, but I do feel that the time and effort some people invest in others on here shifts the boundaries of NSA sex and people perhaps are deep down more open to long term relationships than they are to one meet sex sessions.
And sometimes I do get the impression that men go along with it because it seems to offer more sexual opportunity.
Yes love happens anywhere, but I'm not sure it happens quite as often as the speed in which people hook up with each other on here, not for both parties anyway |

I have used online dating in the past. It's easier than going to singles clubs or speed dating for someone of my age. I got to choose who I had conversations with and being rejected was less of a personal affront. As one of those women who want more than a one night stand from this site, I accept many men won't be interested in me however those I have met mostly appreciate that sex can be better if you have more than one encounter .  |
