Surely this seems desperate...

joining a dating website...
the only thing stopping me was that you have to be 21!
but I am fed up of being the gooseberry, and there seem to be very few men in my life that like me/are available/live within the london area
so....
is it really desperate? Should i just get my booty out a bit more, and get enough confidence back to be the flirtatacious bodacious babe (not my words) i used to be?
danke mucho

Why dont you use both options,then you`ll have twice the chances?:thumb:
Imagine telling your grandchildren how you met your partner.
"I was Londonhotbabe18 and he was Hunkyarms23, it was love at first type".
awwh
It isn't sad at all. Go for it if it's what you want.
Many people I've spoken to say they'd never resort to a dating website because its viewed as an "admission of defeat", ie would make them feel they can't get a relationship "the proper way" (ie face to face, whether that be an introduction through friend or hookup at a club).
The internet's exciting to get laid quickly with someone looking for what you're after, but similarly I'd never want to use it for an r'ship, its still an embarrassing taboo for a couple to meet on the internet and I wouldn't want to hide a secret for so long.
That said, using the internet to your advantage is a great idea, eg having an awesome Facebook profile which makes you come across really desirable to potential hotties of the opposite sex.
and plus i don't want to pay to join one!
You can't think that is what people are like on there really, or else you wouldn't be wanting to join one - unless that's the type of person you're after. So maybe it's something else bothering you; like you feel that you should be able to meet someone not online, if that is how you've met people in the past... or something?
Seriously, does it really matter what other people think? I personally won't do it, but if it's what you want/makes you happy, then go for it.
I do feel a bit weird sometimes telling people me and Rich met on the internet, and I always feel the need to say "but we were friends for ages first", because I know what they will think (one of the boys at work has taken to calling him "Cyberman" :yeees: ), but then I think that I know that I am happy and he is happy, and the people that matter to me don't care how I met him, just that he makes me feel good.
she is definately not desperate and she is a stunner
sites like facebook and dating sites just allow you to meet the people who you wouldnt normally meet in the places you go of a weekend
