The guy online might also be promiscuous and alcoholic too. There are good people everywhere, start from your college.

You have a point. I will just hangout in the gym and and wear high heels in the library lol. The thing that frustrates me is that my roommate is obese and not very friendly and still has a boyfriend. I do not know what I am doing wrong.

Yeah, I mean at this point I just need practice as far as talking to guys. I feel like my interests might not be in the "mainstream". I am afraid to post my picture on this site, what if my family sees it and makes fun of me lol.

Why not get advice(s) from older relatives if you can reach out to your parents or older siblings. then take it from there. rather than exposing yourself to the dangers of online dating.

I am an only child and my extended family is very conservative. I never got "the birds and bees talk"; I learned from my friends. I have never seen anyone in my family kiss. Hugging is not very common either. No one in my family has ever told me that they love me. I feel like I was not exposed to this world, and I am trying to take a proactive step towards understanding how courtship/dating works.

I think you should date all the guys that come your way get to know them and see what they have to offer keep an open mind in the dating world although the physical attraction is important be open to being surprised.

Really hope this wont affect your relationship when you finally get into one, as you'll think it's outside the norm to kiss, hug or say "i love you".

I think I'll function normally, I just need to meet a guy who is affectionate so that my actions are reciprocated.

I appreciate your advice, but dating is very difficult in this area. I live in a small-ish town with close-minded people of a different race. I will be stuck in this town for another 3 years. I do not want to waste 3 years of my life being alone, so I thought I would use my resources to consider other forms of dating during these next few years.

Well except you yourself alreadymake an oddity of the idea, why would they laugh at you? You are being sincere about what this phase of your life requires and you are proactive about it. Here is a great platform having different folks with divergent complexity of ideas- the good, the bad, the ugly and the defeated but like someone said you have to filter out what suits your purpose. If eventually, you come across a few subjects, Let your brain guide you. smiley
