Comment on “Forever Alone” 4chan Prank Brings Out the Best and Worst of the Internetparent

Comments

don't think it's internet dating per se. you can meet people in the internet like you would on a bar. hell I have a couple of friends who got to know each other on bbs chat.

but if you pay for dating services, internet or not, thats just weird. like giving up.

For a tech community forum I find this reply quite odd. You pay for many useful internet utilities. I don't see why a simple dating website can't charge so they can make a living.

It's not like going to a social event in real life doesn't have expenses.

Also if your hobbies are programming and gym you will have a hard time finding ladies.

If you don't like drinking or have children that takes out bars.

you also will have friends, be it from the gym or programming. which is what always help with that mater.. same is true for finding jobs. best ones always came from friend hints.

only middle managers pay for relocation services. same is true for dating sites. our maybe not. what do I know?
