I recently decided that I should give online dating a chance but honestly all I've seen so far are guys trying to get into any girl's panties and that is turning me off online dating ...Are there any guys online who are seriously looking for a good woman instead of trying to score?

 I met my boyfriend on www.myyearbook.com, and we've been dating for a while now. He's always talking about how he's going to marry me someday, and I seriously think that he's 'the one'
So the answer to your question? Yes!
Although, I will warn you, just like in real life, there will be those guys who are just looking for a good time. Unfortunately, they're everywhere!

I don't think I'm bad looking, hotornot says I'm a 9, I'm also educated (finished uni) and not overweight. But girls don't view my profile unless they are forced to like with hotornot.com's rating system and they never reply. So in feb I hollowed out my profiles and closed my accounts because it was a huge waste of my time and money trying to find a girl online.
So have I ever had any success in online dating? well the answer is no. Maybe if I was looking for casual sex it would have been different.

 I met my boyfriend online. We were looking for sex. Now we are together for 3 years and more. He is willing to take care of my son (not his) while I go home for 2 weeks.
There are men who want purely sex and there are men who wants to see how it goes. It is not for the faint of heart. I have played the online dating field. Statistically men who are looking for a good woman online, if they are young, then they are overly religious, overly shy and not confident, and if they are more mature, they are in a comprised situation such as having kids already, having a physical illness needing a woman to take care of him, or no good at sex at all so one good thing he can offer is good companionship.
The thing you have to be aware is that there are lots of fakes online. You can not trust anything they say until you meet them regularly and see some consistencies between what they say and what they do.
One good thing about online dating is that you can screen through what you like and don't like, thus minimizing rejections.

 men are full of hormones, they need to get sex done so they can start thinking. as a woman you should be aware of this and make sure you don't sell yourself short. internet dating is no worse than getting drunk at a bar and going home with someone. don't fall in love until you've had a few real dates and you will be ok.
