contrary to what other people might think, girls prefer to chat online and date online before meeting the guy. girls have a lot of insecurities and would like to protect their egos before they let themselves fall for any man. through online chatting, they can present a more confident image and can ask more direct questions to guys who are trying to meet up with them.

I've only talked to one girl online late (my current GF), so can't give a current answer, but 10 years ago girls I spoke to implied you were desperate if you needed to meet people online. I think things have changed. It does lack an emotional connection for them I guess. I like the fact that you see their character before anything else. It kind of helps you get you priorities right, and avoid wasting time and money.
I have met a lot of people and had 2 bfs at the same time for a few months. I met them both at the same bar in Chicago. I had to pay for drinks, dress up and wear a pretty dress... ended up losing them both so wasted time and money. Really can't say if it's better if i just opted to date online... as I would waste more time to know the person. Usually, girls want to see the whole package... superficial yeah. But girls have intuition to figure out if the guy is their type by the way he presents himself.

hmm.. And you expected everlasting love? You were disinterested, so it goes without saying that you communicated that. Why did you pay for drinks if you were not interested? You only waste time online if you dont know who you are, or what you want. When you know, you will do better. What makes you think you will see the 'whole package' if you met them in-person. That will only come in time, whether online or in-person. I would make the point that its actually easier to pick a fraud online because you have a complete record of everything they say. I also don't think I've had an experience as erotic as chatting up my GF online. Girls really have no great insights. Infedelity is going on all around them.
I'm from PH and I met my bf online. It was just chance for me... if i break up... I think i wont date online again. I guess ill just give up on finding mr right and wait till someone finds me. My relationship now with my bf (the one i met online), is quite empowering to me as a female... and by that i mean that i learned not to rely on having a bf or a partner to be happy. i am quite pleased with my life now though nothing really changed... not even my salary... it is just a change of mindset. I think chatting online and finding someone special is quite mostly based on luck...
I'd probably have same chances meeting someone nice and honest online and in real life.
Hence it's not where you met your partner... it's if you have treated your partner and your relationship with him with respect... if you have thought about it well...

There is a hint of tragedy in your post. You have successfully found a partner online, why wouldn't you try again (if you lost your partner). It sounds like you are in damage control trying to rationalise that you can be satisfied without a partner. In the one instance you are saying 'he' is a value, in another instance you are saying you are indifferent to the prospect of meeting another like-minded guy. Maybe you have elevated yourself to a level where you can attract more high-callibre guys. If you have high or particular standards I can think of no better place than to meet a person that online. You will read that its fraught with danger. It can be if you are naive and unable to accurately assess people, otherwise its the best possible approach. The probability of meeting a person is dependent on the circumstances in which you intend to meet people. If you go to a singles party, you have more chance. If you go to an industry or activity-related party, you have more chance to make a connection. Online is far better because you can spill more of your guts and people can see more of you. Most people feel to vulnerable to open up online.
