Online dating - domain of the sad git or modern way of meeting people?

As I’m currently single with little time to meet anyone I’ve decided to have a go at seeing what happens if I add myself to a dating site and see what happens, I’ve added myself to a free one because paying for for one of these sites does seem a little bit on the pathetic side.

Having browsed a few of the members on there, and I really did take a good luck, I cant help but think I’m on a road to no where. Alot of girls on there who I woulnd’t touch with a barge poll - no looks arnt everything, but come on! - and the girls who are attractive seem to be a little on the chavy side or slutty side for me to be interested.

My first impressions, not so good, but I will stick at it and see if things improve and what results it throws up.

My profile isnt brilliant to be honest, so far I need to find a decent photo of me to add - if such a thing exists -, and I’ve never been too comfortable describing myself especially within this context.

I hope once I’m done I will be able to give the definitive answer as to whether online dating is for losers or just another tool for the singleton - alternatively might be a good way for a no striongs attached fumble under the covers.
