For those of you who have tried online dating here, I was wondering what websites you use and how have your successes been with them.

The only one I really know about is Koreancupid but I have not really heard any goods or bads about it.

What are the most popular and populated websites?

What do you want from online dating?
IMO, online dating should be called instant hookups. If you're looking to just get laid, it's excellent. If you're looking for a serious relationship, you're really really looking in the wrong place.
These are your options:
Fat and or ugly
Really slutty
Lacking in all social skills
Some of the above
All of the above

I really don't recommend it at all.

HAhahaha ^

tried it with Korean women. Met 3. All were psychos.

You can meet someone good but be prepared to be patient and put up with a lot of crap until you do. I just wouldn't bother personally.

Some guys here found some luck but they are the exceptions here.


My advice? Learn some Korean. Join a university dongahri (like a club).

You'll meet korean girls as well as other women from other countries.

my 20 won.

Took me about 8 or 9 dates, (yes, time, money, and effort spent) before meeting ONE girl I thought was mildly cool and down to earth...

Once you meet that one girl, then you still have to accept that fact that she will be logging into her online profile every two minutes to check out the 20 new guys that are emailing her daily... it could be mere curiosity on her part, or insecurity, or shallowness, vain-ness, etc...

it's a zero-sum "GAME"....

but you'll get dates... if 'activity' is what you're after...

I googled donghari and got nothing, you mind elaborating on that a bit?

I tried it, wasn't having much luck with the bar scene...far too many short term flings (which was really fun) but I was looking to expand my limited dating pool and find something a little more long term (and I'm not into dating co-workers and meeting Korean girls outside of hook up joints can be a little tough some times, although I met a fabulous nurse while at the hospital once.) I figured I could instantly expand my search and meet more women. It's easy to post messages and find out a little about someone well before you ever meet them.

Again, like others have stated you do have to sift through some chaff and sometimes the girl you meet is a dud who just doesn't match you at all (tough to find out via messages sometimes), but it was great for me, out and about on weekends, meeting girls online during the week.

In the end I actually met the girl I would end up marrying. We met online, arranged to meet for dinner, ended up liking each other and have been close friends ever since. We are now expecting our first child.

Internet dating is what you make of it, for me, ithe internet is a great way to meet people. I've found countless friends using the internet. Either look up clubs for various interests, find people with shared interests (Via Daves or other forums) or you can try Korean Friend Finder.

Also, are there any clubs outside of universities?

You just have to juggle a couple different people in order to find a gem. Some of the people are complete closet cases and I've found that some just want to practice their English. Whatevs. It's beter than trying to pick up someone at a bar cause at a bar they're usually with friends so they don't want to be disturbed.
