Mary Kary Beckman Sues Match.com For $10M After Online Dater, Wade Ridley, Tried To Kill Her.
Beckman, 50, met 53-year-old Ridley in September 2010 through Match.com. The couple dated briefly, but Beckman ended the relationship in just eight days. Four months later, Beckman said Ridley had broken into her home and hid in her garage until she returned home. Court documents said Ridley "brutally stabbed [Beckman] 10 times with a knife about her head, face and upper body, until the overwhelming force he applied to the stabbing caused the knife to break.” Then he "stomped and kicked" Beckman in the head until she "stopped making the gurgling noise.”
Beckman was found by a neighbor shortly after the attack and was rushed to the hospital, ABC reported.
Ridley, who had no previous criminal record, was eventually arrested and told police he “wanted to kill” Beckman for breaking up with him. He also confessed to killing another woman named Ann Simenson, whom he also met on Match.com. An arrest report said Ridley wanted to kill both of the women because they had “jilted” him.

Met my lady on Craigslist of all places. She is perfect for me, and I for her. Completely unexpected, but sometimes life does that to you.

If a dating service is what you require, then you should be prepared to try a results-oriented pay service.

^well not only that but 99% of the girls I see are just straight up boring/worthless but want absolute perfection. 99% of the profiles are "hey I like to laugh, have a good time, hang out with friends, (other obvious generic shit)" followed by "please don't send me a generic message, or 'hey ur hot wanna fuck??'".
And I sit there for a couple of minutes. look at their pictures. Read the profile again looking for some type of creative spark that will generate something witty or creative or attractive. And after 10 minutes the only thing I can remotely come up with is 'hey your hot want to fuck??' and now I know why guys send these messages because what the fuck else do we have to work with?

^ you're probably right. Online profiles are a terrible way to sum up a person. The most dishonest people are going to look like the best catch.

dconstrukt, I have received one response. Like I said, with a girl with a lot of common interests. And isn't fat/ugly (from what I can tell). We don't have a date till Jan when she gets back from break. Until then I've wasted a lot of time emailing back and forth 3 paragraph emails. I'm going to be upset if we meet and don't click at all. The only reason I got a response is because I am an outdoor person, so is she, and where we live there isn't anyone like that around. Mostly fake so cal girls.
Anyway, other than that I've received 0 responses from anyone else. I've dropped my standards, dropped them even further, sent super creative messages, overly sexual messages, sent messages to single elderly lonely moms, even racial slurs to elicit any response, and have received zilch back. It's so depressing that such boring, unoriginal, uninteresting women can pretty much rule the online dating world.
The funny/sad/ironic part is now I totally think going out in real life would be a lot easier to pull chicks.

I met a few good people online dating.
There are a few things to be aware of:Everybody is trying to punch above their weight on there. So if your not good looking enough, forget it.
Kinda catch 22 but you have to send out 100s of mails as a lot of girls don't bother to even read them as they get so many!
If you just target one or two who appear to be interesting you'll probably get nothing back.
Its all a numbers game.

Usually just some random silly shit that pertains to something they wrote about themselves in their profile. I don't take it too seriously. Probably have heard back from about 75% or so.

super curious guys.... cause like the biggest issue most guys have is sending messages to girls and NOT hearing back....
what are you guys emailing these girls?

It is all luck. Any dating site, regardless of which one, is just a small cross section of society. You have surgeons and waitresses, lawyers and teachers, models, average, etc., etc.
Best story I have is my buddy met his wife on Craigslist. Some bizarre things like they both read the same book and searched, something clicked, and bingo, been married 3 years now.
You just never know, certainly more possibilities than meeting someone at a bar or hoping your friend brings a friend that brings a friend next time you are out.

Not a personal experience but a close family friend has been happily married to her husband she met via a dating agency. Not online per se but these things can work.
