Appreciate the input so far.
I have made profiles in the past, but nothing on 'serious' websites, really. I'm usually quite picky with whom I talk to on these websites, and rarely give my number out. 90% of the time, the guys weren't actually seeking a relationship. I usually try to meet the person within a weeks period of time. That's when I officially ask for their number, take them on a date, be adorable, etc etc. So far with these new, 'safer' websites, I've met quite a few cool guys. If anything long term stems from it, great! But I don't want to attempt to get my hopes up too much. I do like the advice of making my intentions clear right off the bat as well. Helps to weed out the not-so-interested men.
