i did this. i will call myself Michael ... 'cause that's my name. . I am 29 yrs old, funny, clever, interesting, and cute. I am also shy.
I can't recall if I mentioned my shyness in my profile.
perhaps online dating sites are different here in America than they are in Australia. I found myself a very nice and respectable woman online. We've been together for about 8 months now... There have been some ups & downs of course, but things are now stronger than ever... There's very little (if any) chance that we would have met had it not been for match.com...
so let me officially go on the record to say that while online dating may not work for everyone, it has worked for my girlfriend & me... you know what they say about throwing the baby out with the bathwater...
