Deaf Dating Sites? - Page 2

VacationGuy234 · 08-09-2012, 08:28 AM

Sadly, there are more scammers on the deaf dating sites than the hearing dating sites. You have to be careful and use common sense. Online dating is no different than dating in real life, just be smart about it.

I've used Deaf Singles, but have had better luck on some hearing dating sites. You have to understand there is a MUCH smaller pool of deaf single women and there is still competition from hearing guys on any site.

IMO, be open to date anyone, but move someone who is deaf to the top of the list so that you can check them out first.

Good luck..

I really hate online dating sites..omg...so foo-kin annoyin. I recently was lookin at japanese women datin site I saw on my facebook...I never get lucky and dont trust nobody. Not a good idea. it's better to meet ppl in person.

No one should be using dating sites for anything.

They're full of crap. People lie on their profiles. Nothing works out.

You're better off going to your local deaf social like Deaf Chat Coffee or Deaf Happy Hour.

Don't make any assumptions that nothing works out from people meeting online. There are a bunch of successful stories of people meeting online then later getting married. That's why one has to use dating sites at one's risk!

However, it is true that it is much better and safer to meet people in public either at an event, Church, organized meeting, and so on.

And... where do these success stories come from?

A lot of success stories you see online or on television are fake or staged.

The deaf Singles websites didn't work out for me. The responses I get is usually "hi" or one linears.. It just never seems to flow. Maybe it is that or I am just picky. Meh. I still think some of you guys should try it out. Like some said earlier, you never know. I just decided to let it come naturally and to stop looking for it.

Some of the stories may be fake or staged, but there are still plenty of successful stories that are true. Don't be such a killjoy!

I met and got into a relationship with two girls I met at different times on DSC, but of course, they didn't work out.

I've met at least 3 people via deaf singles connection site. I've been with my girlfriend for about 1.5 years now so I don't need those sites any more.

Of course you don't need those sites anymore if you believe your girlfriend is Miss. Right. Are there any wedding bells tolling in the background? Haha.

MushyCookies · 08-13-2012, 03:38 AM

=P Maybe one day I'll be as lucky as Derek is.

VacationGuy234 · 08-13-2012, 07:55 AM

I've had success on dating sites and I've met a lot of good people. It's no different than real life and you have to be as careful, but I believe, it is the best solution for a hard of hearing/deaf single person.

If you are a man, you need to understand that communication is a top priority for women. If you can't communicate well when first meeting someone, you are not going to have a good chance with that person. For this reason, I don't do well in a bar room setting or a place with loud noise. However, with online dating everything is written messages at first so you can always understand and communicate better, it levels the playing field for us.

It's just another tool not an end it itself.

Irish · 08-14-2012, 09:01 PM

I used Deafs.com... still have a profile on there... but most of the time I've gotten messages from creepy people or older people who I know I just don't have anything in common with. Or people who I can't understand at all due to terrible English. So far I've only met two guys who seemed nice enough and was easy enough to understand.

Theres quite few scammers there I got tired of putting the efforts into the first email and then find out they want my money so i kinda figured out how to figure out whos real and whos not so i kinda keep short emails at first to screen out the scammers but sadly some beautiful lady like you guys here are not trying get know the person before judging someone bases on one liner or picture I know being deaf it limited our odds of finding the partner your half u always wanted in ur life which kinda why we all are here online instead of going to town events because theres plenty hearing fish out there but not deaf of course communication is #1 so that can be hard to find in small town we have to look harder such like meeting new friends online somewhere else

I just hope ill have someone like my grandpa and grandma just few days ago grandma was in hospital bed not wake up while my grandpa was in wheelchair holding her hands.. that picture i got was so powerful so sad but thats true love and long lasting love that I would love to have !!!!

anyway if any of u wanna get know me just

ChefDylan · 08-20-2012, 10:27 PM

Try yelp.com and see what is popular out there. Clubs, Bars, Shows, and such things like that. I mean Yelp.com is rated by people who went out and rate stars. I know cuz when I went to vegas, I looked up some stuff and I got in 5 clubs for free. Thanks yelp. Oh yea, I met tons of women, got their phone numbers, emails, even made out with them but I guess you could said it's Vegas yo!

PowerON · 08-21-2012, 10:15 AM

Try and use OKcupid.com, you will find plenty hearing who know sign language (they have search who know sign language in different level). Be aware, you have to be that smart. They would be turn-off if you have poor English.

I have not heard this? What search? Are you saying you can search for people who are deaf/HoH?

Sadly, a search for sign language will get you everyone who has taken sign language from interpreters to teachers who had to take it as a requirement.

Has anybody dated an interpreter? I have avoided them because I'm not sure their motives are pure. All the ones I've come across are just interested in learning the language.

I dated an interpreter in the past as the interpreter was not just interested in learning the language, but had a vast knowledge of the Deaf Culture.

Where I live, there are NO single deaf women that I know of, at least close to my age that is.

This is why I must look outside of where I live.

Duplicate above...

goodonya · 11-23-2012, 05:41 PM

I like the dating site method because I am way better at writing than talking. As my age increased though I found that it had become a big handicap. I was forced to lie to get any response at all and then confess my age. It sucked to do that but there is as much or more turndown because of age than hearing - a detail I also left out.
I have had a long distance relationship with meeting once a year for a while now. It is great really in many ways and I am hopeful. Fits well with being a glacially slow mover. Still without the dating site I would have never have met her. I am glad she forgave my lies to be interested in me the real guy. Like I say it sucked as a method but it worked for me. When I was completely honest? I had zero response. None. The biggest challenge has been taking what had developed into a totally chaotic life over a lifetime of being single to having a really good life to offer.While I do not like being single it is I find a lot easier in many ways. I have not made the big leap yet into the final placement of myself into bondage.. whoa.
