Have you found love on the internet?

I met my wife on ICQ, for those who have never used it and I'm not even sure if its still around ICQ was a big thing about 10 years ago. ICQ was a message/chat site in which you could enter your interests and then trawl through an open dialog box looking for interesting people to talk to. As we are talking 10 years most of the users tended to be American or Far Asian but there would be a smattering of Europeans and British people on it as well. You could start a chat with the person in which you typed in real time or you could send messages which when you received a new one gave an annoying high pitched double quaver ...  Read the complete review

When the 'Leccy D Met Tor the Moose... A story of true love ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Where is my love life? Where can it be?!" Prince - 1984 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It seems that today if you ask a couple where they met, the answer is just as likely to be 'we met online' as it is 'we met at work' or 'we met down the pub'. This should come as no surprise as the internet is all around us - we have access to it at our workplace, in public services such as the Library, and of course we have the ...  Read the complete review

Just discovered this category about love on the internet and seen as though so many people have admitted to it, I'm going to join the bandwagon as it were! So, I'm going to let you in on a little secret.... I met my husband on a dating website!!! It all started about 5 year ago (this week actually - how spooky!) when I was working in Hull but living in Bradford and driving every day. This was down to a split with my ex partner and as I had not sold my house at the time, I hastilly moved back to my house and carried on working in Hull. For those of you not lucky enough to live in Yorkshire, the two are about an hour apart (longer in rush hour!). So there I was, 21, ...  Read the complete review

Just found this section and had to tell my story. Back in Jan 03 I decided to have a clear out. Started off by listing a ton of books on ebay. One, Void Moon by Michael Connelly, was purchased and the buyer sent cash in an envelope. At the same time the buyer had also purchased a ream of photo paper from a man in Wales. At some point in his trip to the post office he'd managed to get the two envelopes mixed up (which doesn't surprise me in the slightest now I know him!) - the man from Wales got £2.50 for a book and I got £15.00 for the paper. Being the honest person I am I emailed the buyer to explain what he'd done and got a lovely reply saying, send ...  Read the complete review

Can you find love on the Internet? And the answer is simple of course you can. It started when I was 16 I was browsing the Internet in general and I was searching for Ford Fiesta (I liked this type of car and wanted to research it. I always thought when I pass my test that is the car I want). Anyway I came across a site and it was an "home made site" from a guy who also liked Ford Fiestas with his best friend. He made this site so other Fiesta lovers could go on and pass on comments etc. There was a picture of him on the site and I immediately thought he's nice so I emailed him and asked him about his car. Straight away we hit it off and became good ...  Read the complete review
