    ^ To answer mekk as to why we did online dating: (sorry for the bump, way too long to answer on the side)

    My wife simply had just recently moved here from New Zealand and didn't know anyone here.

    As for me, I had a bad break up with someone that really deceived me a few years prior. In the time that followed I had a somewhat self imposed exile from socializing. I divided my personal time between my dog, wrenching on my motorcycles and racing (which keeps me out of the city most weekends during the on season anyway).

    I wasn't really looking to date anyone when I signed up for OKC. I was looking to meet interesting people and get myself out of the garage and back into society before I turned into a grease covered hobbit. (I should note I wasn't a complete shut in and worked in an office with co-workers) Having never tried it before, it seemed like a good way to vet people. You need to be able to read between the lines on someone's profile and sort through the BS. Its not always what someone says but how they say it that paints a picture of who they are.
