Someone on their profile on here said "I'm not good at dating, but I'm good at being in a relationship" -- I think I can relate to that... I suck at those "You're not supposed to call within __ days" and "Wait 2 days after you see the person" and all those things in general. I tend to just be me. If I'm comfortable around a person at 1st, I'm "What you see is what you get" (wysiwyg if you're a web-nerd). I've found a few people on here that are thoroughly interesting (they have the whole look/brains/humor/interesting taste thing down), but I feel I'm freaking them out when I ask to meet. It's so much easier to talk in person than to wait for e-mails to arrive. Maybe I'm freaking them out, or maybe I'm just paranoid since I haven't been in the dating game in a while. Maybe they're just busy.

Like the rest of the site- here's a quiz:
You like someone on okcupid.com - you write them, they write back, you write back, they write back. It seems good so far. Do you:
1)Tell them they sound really cool, and ask to meet them - risking looking like an axe killer, or clingy codependent freak.
2)Keep writing them - eventually becoming their bestest penpal friend ever. While they go on dates, and tell you how great it's going. You may eventually get the balls to say "Hey! You know... I thought you seem really cool, and I wanted to get to know you in person" and hopefully they haven't found their match yet.
3)Who's got time to e-mail or meet or date?
4)Google some resources on dating, maybe go to the bookstore/library, read up on the normal rules of engagement, and do things "the right way" - - even though you're a unique individual that doesn't do well with "Normal"
