In the first place, my circle of friends and potential mates has a radius of about 100 miles not 10. In the second place if you think the opportunities to find a mate have improved, I can't believe you are actually looking for one. You have about a 1% chance of hooking up with anyone on the web if you make less than $250,000 per year (or can fake it really well) and less than 1% of those hookups will be with anyone you would seriously consider as a mate. The much quoted statistic that 80% of the women online are only interested in 20% of the men totally obscures the fact 99.9% of the people of either sex online are not worth doing anything but masterbating to. Grow up, get real and immerse yourself in online dating culture before you talk so positively about something you seem to have no real life experience with.

Great, so now in addition to people that you had access to before, now you also have anyone who you might meet through the Internet. It is a mathematical certainty that the set of the people you have access to without the Internet plus the people you have access to with the Internet is greater than just the set of people you have access to without the Internet. You are wrong.

Just how old are you? You seem to think that the internet is the real world and netizens are real people. When was the last time you met someone from the internet face to face? How did it go? Ever hooked up with anyone you met online? Were they mate material?

LOL, if simple math is too much for you I see no point in continuing this discussion. You are factually mistaken and there are no two ways around it.

Cute how you never answer about your experiences. Makes me suspect that you have had none.

Hilarious, unable to defend your assertions so you try to change the subject. This is not a question of personal anecdotes, although that appears to be all you can comprehend. Mathematically, the set of people you have access to without the internet must be smaller than the set of people you have access to without the internet PLUS the set of people you have access to with the internet, unless you think the internet gives you access to zero new people which is obviously untrue. No amount of blathering by you can change this fact.

Unable to defend my assertions? Puppy don't play that game. I had two points to make. The first being that the internet is a terrible place to search for anything, much less a mate. Can you cite even anecdotal evidence to falsify that? The second being that you yourself seem woefully uninformed about how the world works. That's just my opinion. Mating is the most serious business there is for any organism after survival. So it would seem to me that I made a point that you can argue with as long as you have breath. But the first point needs to be falsified by hard data not wishes. Do so or quit wasting my time.

You embarrass yourself further with every post. As they say, better in your case for you to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
