I'd prefer to date someone whom I met online since that would be a person I already know and chose to meet live. Blind date are based on luck, and luck sometimes can be a b**ch :s

thanks dude!
I think my wife wouldn't be too happy if I went on either of those two, but I guess if I was single, I'd prefer someone I already met online, for the same reasons as the person above me

Thanks! :) Let's try! ;)

It´s on my wishlist.
Thank you and have a nice monday ;)
Would i date someone in knew about a forum or teamspeak? Dont know, realy!

I meet my GF online, on a bulletin board. Few months of FB chat, then went to her home and never left (5 years soon).

Well, in a certain sense dating someone you met is like dating someone from a blind date. Until the point of meeting each other, you'll never know the truth. That being said, and trying to be more positive here, at least with someone from online, you can get a good idea about their personalities, so if I had to choose, I'd go for online.

Gratitude is important, so thank you for creating this opportunity cheekiyaya!

P.S. Blind date. No awkward unfriending to do if it doesn't go well.

I'd much rather date someone that I'd met online. Much like most others are saying, a blind date is completely up to chance or how well the person who set you up with it knows you. You don't necessarily know the real person that you met online, because the thing about the Internet is that you can be anyone you want. I feel like that also works in your favor, though, because if you like someone for who they want to be, then deep down inside, you like the person, even if the outside doesn't match.

I'd like to date someone I met online, but since people can be pretty different in person compared to online, I see them both as kind of the same. At least I have an idea of what the person is like with someone I've met online, which would help me prepare for a possible meet up.

I don't know.
Online that's for sure but blind can be a good surprised.

Ho, and thanks :)

My wife and I quasi met online :D. We were both visiting the same rock disco an she saw me dancing. As I have some very smooth moves (especially to Little Lion Man which was playing at the time), she just couldn't help herself and asked someone we both knew what my name was. One day later she contacted me on schuelervz.de and now – almost 8 years later – we are married :).

Спасибо! You know, for some variety. ;)

As for the question, hm. If I had to choose and had to date at all, it'd probably be someone met online. Blind dating via matchmaker "might" be safer, but I've almost zero expectations of getting a good match out of it.

My boyfriend and I met online. We got to know each other first, which was better for me than a blind date.

I'd prefer dating person I've already spoke with (that would give themes for speaking) and had some online actvities (gaming), blind date is to random.

Online for sure. Half of my current live friends are from online world. It just take some time to meet them all.
But sure there were some good points in unfriending later if it goes in wrong way.

Don't take it too seriously, but for example dating you would be fun I suppose. 😜

Thanks!

I would much prefer to date someone I already knew, even if that person was just someone I met online. Blind dates would make me feel incredibly nervous beforehand and even more so in the actual data since we wouldn't know how far we could push boundaries.

online, because I'd already have some idea of their personality and whether we'd get along

I'd rather date someone I met online. I love blind dates (I'm a gambler and a risk-taker) but I like to have a good sense of someone before an actual date. :)

Mostly because I'd hate for the date to completely suck because we are incompatible and I wouldn't want to leave early or kick her out. :x

Blind dates would be interesting if I'm not looking for a long-term relationship, though I don't see the point in dating if we're only together for a short time.

Isn't both more or less the same? When you meet an ugly fat guy as 'woman', then yeah it's a blind date. xD

Don't wanna meet anyone. Pretty happy with my present relationship.

thanks! Last time was online, so next I'd have to try a blind date for once.

neither?

I don't like either but if I had to choose, I probably would prefer a blind date. I just don't like the idea of actively searching for someone to get in a relationship with just for the sake of not being alone. I much prefer for it to occur organically with the people you meet circumstantially, though it's getting harder to do it that way nowadays with everyone being so isolated. Thanks for the GA!
