Peg - Good luck with the internet dating hun.
My DH and I met via the internet. Just be wary of some guys out there... I am sure I don't need to tell you that a lot of them are full of it and will tell you most anything to get something from you (IYKWIM).
I would say that 90% of the single guys I met from the internet were actually married. My DH was, but he was honest enough to tell me that he was separated from his wife and in the 12 month wait for a divorce. He wasn't on there to pick up, he was there to make friends as he had just moved to Sydney and only knew his workmates... I wasn't on there to pick up either... just to have some fun meeting people when I went to Sydney, go out for dinner etc... and we met after speaking via the net for 6 months and over the phone for 4. When we met we knew it was right. He moved up to be closer to me, moved in with me and the rest is history! I wouldn't swap him for anything! And, I would never have met him if it wasn't for the internet
Soooooo... don't let people tell you that you can't find Mr Right over the net My DH and I are proof that you can.
All the very very best with it hun... at the very least you will meet some interesting characters and have some fun times.
