Yes I do Cyber.

So what is it about the Cyber Child?

I guess some of us like to get away from the crowed and experiment.

Well to tell the truth I used to....

I found the experience mostly very interesting. Yes you can get the crazy stranger who you can quickly block, but in the most part it was very entertaining.

In my previous post I spoke about some safety issue online. These are important, but as I said it is the same when you go out to a bar. You need to check out a person for a while before you jump straight in.

Remember you can show a picture of about anything or anyone online. Creating a persona that is larger then life, but personally I think the written nature of cyber allows you quickly to work out where someone is coming from.

I always used to look for that interesting one liner's. Something quirky used to grab my attention. In many cases most people just like to chat. There were times that I didn't take the process very seriously, but then all of a sudden one time I was suddenly taken by surprised about the emotions I suddenly developed from my online chatting. To be honest at the time it threw me into a bit of a spin. I had thought nothing online could really develop into anything of any substance, but it did and it took sometime for me to pull away. I hadn't really even seen this person, so in the end of the day I didn't know whether they were real or not, but that was a real wake up call for me in understanding that falling in love online was more then real.

There are various dating sites online, from your gentle to very explicit. You can determine for yourself what you are comfortable with. Sometimes I think when there is more openness there is less BS, that's just my opinion. Important to protect your own personal information, but having said that I met my current partner online and I probably followed all the wrong rules. I guess to me women have a good sense of intuition, but then again just lucky I guess. We have now been together for over 3 very happy years.

One of the reasons for the success of our connection were a few things. We both had reasonably detailed profiles. They both had extensive likes and dislikes listed and hey they were creative and sincere. That included what we liked sexually. I think that's the gem of the internet, rather then wondering what someone is really like and falling into a relationship, only later to find that they aren't comfortable doing certain things and having those issues effect your long term relationship. The internet from my experience allows you to get a better idea of who you are getting involved with.

Just a couple of notes, singles go for your life, those in relationships I'd suggest talking to your partner about it and including them otherwise it can get nasty and because from what I've found you can fall in love if your not careful even if you think it's just a throw away online. Some might think what's the fun in that , well just a personal warning.

Anyway importantly if you want to find love online, be creative don't just flop your bits out. Work with what you've got. Hey it may even mean you become more aware of yourself in the process. Hey and respect , respect who you are speaking to. I know some find that difficult but don't over stay your welcome and think that they may want to do the same tomorrow. Move on!

If you've never tried it before when finding a new partner then give it a go.

I'd like to here your experiences with online dating good and bad.
