I don't actually date on a forum. I might make a connection that leads to more 1:1 conversation that might lead to a date. And maybe, if we're both lucky, more dates. But the forum is for connecting and getting to know people.

Usually, the initial contact and communication is made on a forum. Specifically for agnostic.com, that would mean exchanges on discussion topics in public, followed by messages exchanged in private here on the site, then probably moving off the site to more direct communication, for example phone calls and text messages. At some point, they could decide to meet in person for a "date" in real life, although that first "date" could be just meeting for lunch in a very public place.

Just like in real life, only you don't have to put on after shave lotion. And you never get a check for the dinner, nor a good night kiss.

if you can date on a vw beetle you can date on anything.

You send heart emojis. Lol. Idk.? It seems kind of funny to me.

The definition of the word "date" has changed over the last decade or so. I have a co-worker "dating" a girl in Australia he met once for 20 minutes in an airport. They Skype and talk all day as if they were in the same room. More importantly, they are happy.
