Anyone here actually interested in a relationship?

100% interested, but rushing it is a waste of time. I try to only do serious relationships, which require me to spend a lot of time talking to someone to truly feel like it would work out. Otherwise, meeting new people and making friends here has been a lot of fun!

@Codename + DanieleTheDemiGodOtaku Yeah rushing into a relationship really is the worst thing you can do but I do suggest going out of your way to try a little bit of online dating with someone you're interested (if they want to as well that is) just to test the waters and see if they're the right person for you. If you gel really well together then you can take it further and if you feel it won't work out then there's nothing wrong with something non-serious and short term as long as you have fun while you're at it! Just a wee bit of advice since I feel that's the best way to find someone if you want a relationship on a site like this.

i am interested but alot of people on here treat this like a facebook get the most friends thing or they are too nervous to keep talking its annoying

@InfernalMonsoon Yeah, I definitely get it! Thing is, taking that next step is difficult, since it can hurt a great friendship. If I sit on the decision for a while, and really get to know someone, I'm more comfortable asking if they want to take things up a notch. I actually met my ex-girlfriend here, and we dated for 2 years both online and offline (Though, mainly online. She would travel back and forth from Miami to Jamaica). In my opinion, it just takes a mixture of patience and time to date here. Not everyone will fit with you, but you're likely to meet new friends with a lot in common in the meantime :P

I'm interested in a relationship. I've only had a handful of long distance relationships but they were generally good experiences. I don't believe in just going and looking for someone to date. I'd rather slowly get to know them and be friends first and build an actual meaningful connection with that person instead of just going up to someone and asking if they want to go out with me. It just feels weird to me how people can do that without knowing anything about the person. *shrugs* Maybe my line of thinking is wrong and there is something I'm not understanding.

I found one here, but I wasn't really looking. Neither was my partner for that matter. Things sometimes happen, so it might be worth sticking around. You never know who might turn up.
