I am on a few sites and I find older men fit into three boxes? Become a preacher{minister} looking for a purse or a player? and what is your views on this subject? {On Line Dating?}
Anyone who meets people online has to do it safely. Age is not a factor.
I met a lot of people in person after meeting them online. I never had any real problems, although a few of the guys who implied that they were single actually had wives… and kids… but that’s still not the same as being raped or killed.
You do have to be smart & safe, though. Meet in a public place, maybe with friends at another table to keep an eye on you, if you’re really nervous about it. I always had a friend who knew where I was going, who I was meeting, and what time I planned to be home… and I’d call her to let her know I got home OK when the meeting was over.
I always talked to the guy on the phone before I met him, too. Sometimes someone who seems cool online … isn’t so cool on the phone. It’s harder to hide that "creepiness factor" on the phone.
All that said… I want you to know that I met my husband online. Next month is our fifth anniversary. And yeah, I still love the guy.
