Two of my relationships (1 previous and 1 current) have been the product of online dating sites.
The first asked me in his first message about strep in relation to auto immune disorders, asking if I'd ever had OCD, then went into a history of correlation between strep antibodies and mental illness. My profile had included that I have anxiety and an auto immune disease similar to lupus.
As I typically post a lot of my negative traits and bad lighting photos on dating profiles to offset the overwhelming amount of response I would receive if I didn't, I really like when guys take the time to really get an idea of who I am, what my interests are, and how they could add to that.
The current relationship simply commented on a costume I was wearing in a picture, and how he thought it looked really good. We then struck up a conversation about music, metaphysics, and binaural beats. We talked online for about 2 weeks, then met in person.
