I did the online thing. my girlfriend and i have been together for 4 years, and we met online. I found that though i did go on dates, i didn't have the time or the energy to play the game that is dating, but i was lonely and wanted companionship. Doing it online made it easy because i could really get to know a woman, and she me, before we spent the energy to go out. I even made a few really good friends on the site i used. My girlfriend and i spent 4 months trading emails back and forth and im'ing before deciding to meet up, and there were 2 other girls that i was also speaking to at the time, but when they or i decided they weren't interested, there was no feelings hurt, and none of the wasted time and energy. So as a single dad, Online was much easier, and it also progressed the relationship to a point by the time that we did meet that it was easier to introduce her to my kids and be serious about the relationship.
