Do online dating services work well like Match or Yahoo Personals?
I am a man and am back on the market again after a tough breakup. I have never used online dating services before but I am thinking about it now because I am in a new area and don't know many people. Also, I have had enough of the bars and clubs. Would you recommend it? I am a decent guy and would like to meet a serious women for a relationship. What is your experience with online dating?

Yes it works pretty good, make sure you put a photo up though or you won't get responses. Some good sites are...

Reply:It can work, it really depends on the person and the people they are seeking. Why not give it a try. Going to the bar is bad place to meet people. At the bar you know nothing about the person, at least with the dating websites you have to post your info. That way you can select the person you may want to meet.
Reply:Works well, for me, but it depends on what you're after.
I haven't found anyone I'd be willing to have a releationship with (well, one woman was a "possible", but we only dated for a couple months).
But.....I get quite a few dates, and most (75%, maybe) of the time she drops her panties on the first date. I'm a guy so I'm ok with that....again, depends what you're looking for.
Reply:yahoo personals better.
Reply:Do not...I repeat DO NOT go thru yahoo...I signed up thru them for the free trial and then I cancelled like 2 days later...all of a sudden like 3 months later, I happened to look at one of my credit card statements and saw that I was being charged for yahoo personals. I was highly upset and when I contacted yahoo personals, they refused to refund any of my money. They told me that when I cancelled my subscription, all I really did was delete it, but didn't cancel it. I told them I went thru their directions of cancelling it as stated on the website. Everytime I asked to speak with a supervisor regarding this...they were always in a meeting. So I highly suggest you find someone else to go thru. Do not use yahoo personals.
Reply:My sister met a guy online and they got married a year later.
She also met a few scary freaks in the process, including one that somehow found out where she lived and where she worked, and he started stalking her.
I used a service called Equally Yoked, met a few really nice guys but it felt more like shopping than anything. My suggestion, don't date! Focus on making a big group of new friends...you'll eventially meet their sisters and their friends sisters,,,that's the best way I've found to meet people and really get to know them.
My source...thats what I did. Out of a big group of friends who had coffee together after church, 7 couples were made and 6 have been married. (Including me)
I wish you the best!
Reply:Yes! My roommate just got married to a girl he met through online dating. In fact, I believe (especially in US) that the current statistics are very high - it is an accepted way of life out there.
Sure, it might not seem as romantic and incidental as other types of introduction but the world is a changing place and it is not like it used to be.
You can find reviews of different websites at the link below.
Reply:I think for the vast majority of people it does not work. I have done it off and on for years, and funny thing I will go online and browse profiles on both Match and Yahoo and I see the same guys on there I did years ago, so it's definitley not working for them. I have probably met 20+ guys from online and only two of them were even worth seeing a second time. With all that said, I guess it's worth a try, ya never know, it might work for you. Good Luck!...and be careful, the people you meet will seldom be how they portray themselves.
Reply:I met my sweetie online and we've been dating for 6 months now. I also met some strange ones on there too, but you have to take it for what it is. You can meet a weirdo in a bar, at a coffee shop, anywhere.......and people can also lie to your face just like they can lie on a dating profile. Try out several different sites and see which one you like.....I ended up finding my sweetie on a local dating site for our city which was sponsored by the news paper for the area, plus they had singles activities around the area. I had tried a couple of the big name sites also. You really have nothing to lose by trying it out.
Reply:online dating is like dating anywhere actually.
u will find good women, and also fake people.
AND, a jerk who pretend to be a good one.
like all kinds of dating, u still need time to getting know them.
but, u will.
dating site that ask for membership fee, trusted more than free dating site.
if u ever heard eharmony, yeah.. it's a great dating site. try it! :)
or maybe u can start from friendship sites, like friendster or myspace or xanga. I used friendster, n I found many good people there. 95% not fake. depends on how u choose the new friends. :)
wish u the best.

Online dating or actual 3-D meeting by chance . . . your preferance?
O.k....I was married for l o n g while...now peacefully divorced and have been 'in' the dating 'scene' for about 2 yrs now. Have experienced online dating, a dating 'club' / organization, and by chance (in public) meeting. Which do you prefer to opening yourself to for meeting someone . . . through on line search, or to meet someone by chance as you're 'out there' in the world at work, attending an event, brousing a bookstore etc. Which is your preferred style and why? I have my preference and for my own specific reasons...wondering your's.
Online dating or actual 3-D meeting by chance . . . your preferance?
In my head, I think meeting by chance is the best way... but unfortunately, in this day and age, that just doesn't happen... I live in NYC and everyone is so trained not to make eye contact with anyone or to talk to strangers (only because there are so many weird people here...you learn fast not to talk to anyone!). I've met a few guys online and they were all perfectly nice guys. One I had an instant attraction/connection with, but the timing was wrong. The other 2 I just didn't feel that "zing". I think it's easier to feel that "zing" of attracting in person so that is why I prefer it. It has nothing to do with looks, but more of an instant connection that sometimes happens (and in my mind, is very important for a relationship).
Reply:Good luck Onelight! What you CAN try is speed dating. You get the chance to meet 8 or more men in 1 night and if you feel something with one of them, you put a check next to their name and if he checks your name you are contacted by a 3rd party. A friend just married the guy she connected with. Report It
Reply:It really does not matter one way or the other to me.
If I meet some one on line or in real time and she is cool thats all that matters.

Online Dating, Break Up... Stalking?!?
Hello everyone.
I have a bit of a problem.
I am 17 years old, and have been online seeing a 19 year old boy for the past few months. We have recently broken up because of his being overly controlling, possessive, and especially angry, individual. (signs only showed up after dating and I felt it was just a rough patch, but that seems to be his personality and it never went away. causing me much anxiety and unneeded stress)
So I have broke things up. He of course has my address, since we would write to each other. I live in Canada, and he lives in the USA.
* He is a very angry person, and obsessive with me, to the point he stalks many of the places I go online.. which makes me feel paranoid. I have told him this.
The worry I have is that now, after breaking up, with his personality traits in mind.. I fear that he might want to hurt me or my family out of anger (he has my address and telephone number.)
I've alsogone out of my way to make sure that all my accounts online were deleted
Online Dating, Break Up... Stalking?!?
The first and last thing you need to do is defuse the situation.
Do not fuel his obsession. If you haven't done it already, tell him you are cutting off all communication, and if he tries to get in contact with you again, you will call the police. Then don't make any kind of contact with him again, no matter how crude or obsessive he gets. If you even email him or IM him or whatever, you have given him fuel to get respond. Even using this medium is in-directly talking to him. Does he know your avatar and username? Will he be reading this question? If so, you will be fueling him.
You have to not have any kind of contact with him. Don't do it. No matter what. He'll finally get bored and move on. This happens in about 88% of cases.
For the rare 12%, it could turn dangerous. Tell everyone you know about the situation, parents etc. and if he shows up at your home, then he has taken it up a notch and its now time to go to the authorities.
Don't worry about hurting his feelings, people that have anger issues often use this to their advantage and will make you feel bad in order to get the upper hand. They will also use conflict, because most of us try to avoid any conflict.
Reply:man, idk, if its really that serious, maybe you should get a restraining order, but then again, that might not do anything. talk to him, ask him about it maybe. or move. good luck :)

Dating via Online...I met this guy...?
I met this guy via online dating and he's asked me out to a new restaurant that is located in New Harlem, called The Den. Anyone been to this place? Do you think this is an okay place for a date, be as though I've met him through online or should it be more of a coffee house meet and greet? All advice and comments appreciated. By the way, neither of us live in NY, it was just a mutual agreement to meet there since he stays there occassionally for work.
Dating via Online...I met this guy...?
As long as it's a well-populated place and you meet separately, where you can leave in your own car. I met my fiance thru an online dating service and I loved doing it that way. Good luck to you!
Reply:I'd suggest going to a place you're familiar with, it will make you feel more comfortable, also make sure you go to a public place so there will be plenty of people around.
Reply:never been there but i would go if u could!!!
plz answer mine
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
Reply:He sounds married.
Reply:I would know nothing of that restaurant, for I do not reside near that area. I just wish to warn you to be careful. There is nothing wrong with online dating, but it is always important to be somewhat careful. There are people out there that are not exactly friendly, as we should all know. I am sure you can fend for yourself, but I still suggest running a background check, or something of that sort. Considering the fact that you are meeting him in a public place, you should be fine.
I went to their website. Here is the link: http://www.thedenharlem.com/main.html
It looks really nice.It says that they will be closed for three weeks starting Feb 26, 2008 prior to their 5 year anniversery celebration. They open again March 27. Looks like your date will be delayed...sorry
Reply:ask him if u can bring friends... if he says no... dont go... if he says yes bring ure friends... its harder to hurt someone (i aint sayin hes like this but jus incase..) wen they aint alone... jus be careful... u could make it like a double date with ure friends or something..

Online dating dilemma?
A few months ago I joined an online dating site. I have met up with this guy twice, and were planning to meet again. We had spoken for months on MSN before we finally met.
I haven't told my family about him because its early days. This guy has told his folks about me but lied and told them we met in a bar.
Now its my turn to tell my parents but I do not wish to lie to them because if we ever got into a relationship, I know the truth will come out me met online. I really like him but I dont wish to start anything based on a lie.
Should I tell my my parents my own lie, as If i tell them the truth im sure they'd disprove. Or discontinue meeting this guy?
Is it sad meeting online? Were both young 22 year olds. All comments appriciated thanks.
Online dating dilemma?
There is no stigma now attached to on line dating. It's a very, very common way to meet people. What are your alternatives? The church? errr No. Night Clubs (they're all drunk usually), Pubs? (Ditto). Your parents, if they are supportive, will appreciate that you have taken the time and effort to get to know this person by MSN before actually meeting. I believe YOU are the problem in that YOU and only you find it sad to be dating online. But in reality what is the difference where you met? Would it be any better to tell your parents you met at a night club. No. Be proud of what you have done. Obviously you like him and he does you too. So don't start with a lie. Tell your parents the truth and I'm sure they will not see it the way you do.
Good Luck, Sweetie..
Reply:There's nothing to be ashamed about. I know plenty of people who date online. one of my friends met her husband that way. Just explain to them that you met through a legitimate dating service and you're happy!!! They will come around. Good luck!
Reply:i met my man on a phone chat line he never told his family how we met but my sis and mum no my dad dont cos its none of there buisness and its not relevent all the best x
p.s we are now married with 3 kids 5 yrs on
Reply:This is very controversial, some people are a bit embarrassed to let the world know they met online, others don't give a monkeys so I guess its all down to how comfortable you feel with it. If you get on well together then why would you want to stop seeing him. As for your parents, just tell them you met at (the first place you physically met him) then that wouldn't be a lie ... just not the whole truth! Also - be careful, it is still early days. Follow your gut instincts!
Reply:u should just tell it how it is... people meet on the internet all the time.
Reply:i think on line dating is great as long as you play safe ...i met my partner of dating direct..u shudnt have to lie to ya folks ..im sure if they see you happy and he treats u well they wont care where u met him ..good luck
Reply:It's not sad at all to meet someone online. Increasingly more and more young people are finding love and making connections this way - hardly surprising when so many of us use the Internet nearly every day. I was in the same situation as you once, although it was the other way around, I was tempted to lie about how we met and he was prepared to tell people we met online. Don't take his lie too personally, he perhaps feels embarrassed (not of you!) of how you met because maybe he's never had an online relationship before and has never "believed" in them so to speak. That was the case with me, anyway - I was always the kind of person to sneer at online relationships until I made a great connection with a guy I got to know in a chat room. And here we are, two years later, still together and now proud and grateful of how we met.
I think you should tell your parents the truth. Think about it: won't they be much more concerned for you if they find out you were lying? You're effectively saying to them "it's something to be worried about" by not being honest (at least from their parental perspective). Don't give up on your relationship because of his lie - it might well just be out of shyness and worry that his parents will rain on his parade by saying online relationships aren't the real deal. Parents are from another generation and they don't always understand how things work today - my parents were worried I'd get hurt but now they're happy for me because they see how happy I am and how strong my relationship is.
Good luck, I hope it all works out for you.
Reply:Honesty rocks, keep it simple ok,, im telling you that you are in line with being honest,, keep it that way and if nature cant handle that then its problem,,, you are on the right track,, i know you have such a nice parent, they might say thing because they wanna protect you ,, you cannot be angry to them because of that, you have to tell them and follow your heart, i mean its your life, tell them because they have to accept the choice you make,,, i tell my family who am i going out with ,,why because its healthy,, it lets them know we are not doing any hanky panky with out lives,,,you must be asian !
Reply:Its not sad you met on the internet, But why lie to your family if you start now your whole relationship will be a lie.So its worth being up front from the start and your family should respect your decision at the end of the day, As you are both adults.
Reply:online dating isnt sad,and how cares wot your family thinks,ure 22yrs old,and he told his family first,eventho he lied,it shows hes serious about you,otherwise he wudnt ave told them at all
Reply:first you say you don't want to lie, then you ask if you should lie.
very confusing.
Reply:Tell them the truth. They may think it strange at first or even worry about the guy creep. Just tell them he's a great guy and it doesn't matter where or how you met. You could even ask if they think it would be better if it was some guy who picked you up in the bar.
I know a lot of people think it is strange to meet someone on line. That's partly because it so new and people don't understand it. It's also partly because it has gotten a bad rap in the media. They keep showing stories about some girl who meets some one on line and the guy is a stalker or rapist. I reality this doesn't happen any more then any other way of meeting a guy. It just gets ratings so that what they show on TV. They rarely show a story about a couple who met on line and are now happily married.
Reply:at 22 why do you need your parents approval.....?????
I haven't told my family about him because its early days. This guy has told his folks about me but lied and told them we met in a bar.
Now its my turn to tell my parents but I do not wish to lie to them because if we ever got into a relationship, I know the truth will come out me met online. I really like him but I dont wish to start anything based on a lie.

Reply:This is very controversial, some people are a bit embarrassed to let the world know they met online, others don't give a monkeys so I guess its all down to how comfortable you feel with it. If you get on well together then why would you want to stop seeing him. As for your parents, just tell them you met at (the first place you physically met him) then that wouldn't be a lie ... just not the whole truth! Also - be careful, it is still early days. Follow your gut instincts!
Reply:u should just tell it how it is... people meet on the internet all the time.
Reply:i think on line dating is great as long as you play safe ...i met my partner of dating direct..u shudnt have to lie to ya folks ..im sure if they see you happy and he treats u well they wont care where u met him ..good luck
Reply:It's not sad at all to meet someone online. Increasingly more and more young people are finding love and making connections this way - hardly surprising when so many of us use the Internet nearly every day. I was in the same situation as you once, although it was the other way around, I was tempted to lie about how we met and he was prepared to tell people we met online. Don't take his lie too personally, he perhaps feels embarrassed (not of you!) of how you met because maybe he's never had an online relationship before and has never "believed" in them so to speak. That was the case with me, anyway - I was always the kind of person to sneer at online relationships until I made a great connection with a guy I got to know in a chat room. And here we are, two years later, still together and now proud and grateful of how we met.
I think you should tell your parents the truth. Think about it: won't they be much more concerned for you if they find out you were lying? You're effectively saying to them "it's something to be worried about" by not being honest (at least from their parental perspective). Don't give up on your relationship because of his lie - it might well just be out of shyness and worry that his parents will rain on his parade by saying online relationships aren't the real deal. Parents are from another generation and they don't always understand how things work today - my parents were worried I'd get hurt but now they're happy for me because they see how happy I am and how strong my relationship is.
Good luck, I hope it all works out for you.
Reply:Honesty rocks, keep it simple ok,, im telling you that you are in line with being honest,, keep it that way and if nature cant handle that then its problem,,, you are on the right track,, i know you have such a nice parent, they might say thing because they wanna protect you ,, you cannot be angry to them because of that, you have to tell them and follow your heart, i mean its your life, tell them because they have to accept the choice you make,,, i tell my family who am i going out with ,,why because its healthy,, it lets them know we are not doing any hanky panky with out lives,,,you must be asian !
Reply:Its not sad you met on the internet, But why lie to your family if you start now your whole relationship will be a lie.So its worth being up front from the start and your family should respect your decision at the end of the day, As you are both adults.
Reply:online dating isnt sad,and how cares wot your family thinks,ure 22yrs old,and he told his family first,eventho he lied,it shows hes serious about you,otherwise he wudnt ave told them at all
Reply:first you say you don't want to lie, then you ask if you should lie.
very confusing.
Reply:Tell them the truth. They may think it strange at first or even worry about the guy creep. Just tell them he's a great guy and it doesn't matter where or how you met. You could even ask if they think it would be better if it was some guy who picked you up in the bar.
I know a lot of people think it is strange to meet someone on line. That's partly because it so new and people don't understand it. It's also partly because it has gotten a bad rap in the media. They keep showing stories about some girl who meets some one on line and the guy is a stalker or rapist. I reality this doesn't happen any more then any other way of meeting a guy. It just gets ratings so that what they show on TV. They rarely show a story about a couple who met on line and are now happily married.

Hey online dating girls... I've got a question for you.?
Ok, so I gave this online dating thing a try and after dating 3 crappy blind dates I met someone really great. We've really have hit it off and have a great time together. We are around 3 weeks and 9 dates into our little fling. I know she is coming off 2 long term relationships and is enjoying playing the field a little. My question is... how long and how patient should I be about being exclusive? I haven't said anything, I'd really rather not rush her, but on the same token, i'd like to give us a real shot. How do you women feel about this situation? I new to this, so I'd love to hear your advice. Thank you!
Hey online dating girls... I've got a question for you.?
Ok, first of all I'm not an online dating girl... =)
Second, I AM a dating consultant who specializes in online dating.
The best thing that I can tell you is that you should enjoy being with the woman and let nature take its course. The truth of the matter is that she is most likely not ready if she hasn't brought the subject up. Truthfully, man or woman, anyone would be a little trigger-shy coming out of two long-term relationships that didn't work.
Besides, if you totally commit to her when she has not committed to you, then she has nothing to lose. Most relationships are realized when the person imagines their life without the company of a the other one. The saying "If you love it, set it free" exists solely because of this reason!
I'm not saying that you should break up with her at all! What I am saying is that you may want to talk to other women and get a feel for how she feels about it.
Don't do anything that you will regret, just simply talk to other women and see how they react to you, and how she reacts to them. As long as you keep this interaction innocent, you will not be doing anything wrong, and she will truly show how she feels about your relationship.
I tell people to chat with as many people that they can, and to utilize the online dating market as much as possible. You can find out a great deal about a person before you even get to the first date by using these services!
I highly recommend the below online dating website to all of my new clients simply because you get a free trial period that allows you to get a feel for the site, as well as the dating market in your area!
Meet a few people on the site, and set up a few innocent dates where you are simply getting yourself out there and noticed. Your social skills will be the better for it, and both of your true feelings will surface in the long run!

How to start an online dating site, or a profitable online business and be successful?
I'm interested in starting an online business that works. I would consider a dating site, casino site, or other websites that work. I would like to know how I can get stated. I have lots of online experiance. I have looked at many different companies that provide online dating, and casino sites built and read to run. How legit are they, and are their claims for success accurate? They average in price from $499-$12,000. I don't have a lot of money especially to throw away in a scam. What are my best options. I've done ebay, and a few of the online marketing scams that don't work. I'm billingual, English and Spanish, have a two year general degree working on my B.a in business management. I'm receptive to working with other people on a new idea that we can market online, have a few ideas myself just don't know how to get started, can someone lead me in the right direction?
How to start an online dating site, or a profitable online business and be successful?
Starting an online business is not at all a great deal!!! However making it profitable is the real challenge for any online marketer.If you want to make money online, that's great, but you need a system. You need to follow the strategies which are aleready tried n tested %26amp; are used by the champions who could make their fortune on the internet. Don't re-invent the wheel - don't make the mistake of wasting time and money in developing a product.Because you know nothing (I believe so) at the moment about internet marketing. So you must work with someone who can prove their system - be cautious and careful. You need to crawl first before you can walk or run - the best way to learn is to become an Affiliate Marketer. The main advantage with affiliate marketing is that -suppose the product you are promoting is not selling well due to some reason, you can drop that product %26amp; chose something else to sell.In short as an affiliate you are essentially a free-lance marketer - not bound by long-term contracts having a freedom to review / revise / remould your plans as per the demand in the market . (To see the changing demand in the market have a look at these http://buzzyahoo.notlong.com %26amp;
http://buzz-google.notlong.com )
There are lots of people out there there -- people just like you -- who are enjoying the financial freedom that comes with successful affiliate marketing.
Reply:I own a website on profitable home based business opportunities and have been in business for the past 10 months now. I have earned money from all the affiliate programs involved, but nothing to brag about so far. There are others who have quit their day jobs to do this same business fulltime or parttime from home! You must understand that it takes time, energy, and consistent effort and action. The person who replied first is totally correct in saying that you must have an understanding of internet marketing before jumping into anything.
That's why the program I'm in has been so great - it takes you through a 30-day process and teaches you how to market a business online.
We are told that linking to casino sites is a bad thing, as they are often seen as spam sites, but I guess there are successful people doing that as well.
I think the online dating business is a good route to go, but not until you have that internet marketing knowledge base, and I wouldn't know where to direct you there anyway.
With this program, the cost to join is minimal, but the advertising costs can be expensive, but you only do what you can afford at your own pace. The great thing about the program is that is you get a fully customizable website built for you within 24hrs ready to take orders as soon as you sign up. This is an internet marketing, online money making type system, but the fabulous thing is that your site is yours, and is fully customizable. You can use the 30-day program to your advantage to learn exactly what it takes to market a business online, and then change your site to whatever you want it to be - online dating, casino, or whatever you want it to be. This program will show you what you need to do to be successful at owning and maintaining an online business.
You must be willing to put some work into it and cannot expect to see results overnight. Anything that claims that is likely a scam. If you are willing to do the time, you will see results!

Online Dating: Detailed Answers Needed?
I'm a male college student, and I have been considering online dating recently. There seems to be nobody in my area who meets my moral standards or shares my interests. Maybe it's because I'm too serious (both about life in general and about relationships in particular), but there seems to be nobody who is morally or personally compatible with me. Therefore, I think I will try out online dating. I read about OKCupid and eHarmony, which are both free matchmaking sites. Are either of these a good idea for someone who is an intellectual, Christian, extremely conservative, looking for long-term relationships EXCLUSIVELY, and not flirty or looking for someone flirty? Also, it probably doesn't matter...but I'm 19. Even so, like I said, I'm having problems. It's not that I'm unattractive (TONS of girls think I'm "cute" or "adorable"), I'm not out of shape (I get plenty of activity), and I am not some freak (I have plenty of friends). That said, please give me some advice!
Online Dating: Detailed Answers Needed?
Well.. okay, you're probably ~best~ off looking for christian dating sites, since you'll find many more people with your same ideals on there. I personally don't really like those big matching sites, since.. well it's quite hard to find anyone of substance there. But, you might be lucky, who knows. My advise is to find a handful of sites that appeal to you, and use all of them. (I was on about 7-8 when I found the love of my life.)
I wish the best of luck to you!
Reply:I'm not a christian, so I didn't use any of them. http://www.christianpassions.c... and it is completely free. It's pretty easy, though, to just type up "christian dating sites" or "christian personals" and find a ton. You might have to sift through them to find some that are entirely free, however. Report It

Is online dating is for real or it for fooling around??

Is online dating is for real or it for fooling around??
you have to be very careful because you dont know who she is talking to. for all you know, on the other end could be a crazy old woman who likes to murder people (or a man) anyhow, tell her not to lend any money to him because it could be a fraud.
Reply:online dating is what u make of it....
u cant really say youre a couple tho if u havent met one another face to face....
once u meet and find that it will work out for both parties being in a long distance relationship but seeing one another when they can then thats when youre dating....
just chatting online or on the telephone is just being friends...
Reply:OFCOURSE IT'S NOT A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP!!! DUDE! PEOPLE JUST USE ONLINE DATING TO MESS AROUND AND HOPEFULLY FIND SOME TYPE OF IGNORANT PERSON TO GET LAID!!! TELL YOUR FRIEND NOT TO FALL FOR IT... IM SERIOUS!!!
Reply:Definitely fooling around.as far as i suppose 90% people on d net just fool the persons around and whn its the ques of dating-its really a bad game of online fooling..
Reply:fooling around i dont know how much you can accomplish by doing that!!
Reply:Ok! Try it your self ! I am answering your question and you dont know me! Lets meet up and converse ! see if its true

Internet/Online 'Dating' Websites for Friendship or Romance: Computer matchup lies w/ so-called real Persons
I'm a 32-year-old, heterosexual male who is single:
I am a subscribed/paid membership, totaling to at l e a s t $400.00 per month, to the following Internet 'dating' sites to “ ‘find’/‘look’/‘seek’ for a ‘love’ mate and experience mutual ‘love’ with this person”:
1. Yahoo.com
2. Match.com
3. True.com
4. Eharmony.com
5. Chemistry.com
6. FriendFinder.com
7. Passion.com
8. BigChurch.com
9. MySpace.com
I place/post photo(s) of myself on my personal ad/profile for each of the websites listed above.
After I read the match’s personal ad/profile, I write and send a different email to each ‘match’ for initiating contact with peer-aged match (the woman or women).
However, I constantly experience that the ‘matched’ person(s)— the peer-aged women--; regardless of race/ethnicity, regardless of her photo or none on her personal ad/profile; that the peer-aged Women do selectively eliminate me-- they do n o t reply to any of my email(s) I sent-- as potentially being her either platonic friend or amorous/romantic partner based upon h e r preference selection of "Her Ideal Person's" traits, such as:
1) Height,
2) Race/ethnicity
3) 'Body type', and
4) Income/Occupation.
A. What is going on with the Online Internet 'Dating'/"Personal Ad" craze/fad or ‘thing’-- "Woman seeks Man"/"Man

B. Where are the real Woman; n o t the Woman who are fake/'flakes' or n o t those that are " teasers of
written/worded Personal Ads/Profiles, photos, and such)” ? ? ?
C. What is this: “Popularity Contest”, “Flauntiest Teasing”, “Flirtatious but Fickleness/Finickiest” of these
heterosexual peer-aged people; both men and women; with the Internet/Online Dating Website trend or
‘craze’/‘fad’? ? ?
Internet/Online 'Dating' Websites for Friendship or Romance: Computer matchup lies w/ so-called real Persons
i f i was you I would save your money, join some free sites, it has been my experience that there are a lot of scammers on them . i think you are wasting your money. hope you do find some one best of luck alec
Reply:wow, you're spending a LOT of money right now... and some of those sites I believe are partly the reason why you're not getting any results. (hint: they suck)
listen, the only way is to get more results for the money you're investing.
My advice is to cut down on the # of websites you are using to not only save you money, but to up your results and be more efficient.
I'd stick to these:
1. Match
2. myspace
3. eharmoney
4. yahoo
If you do things right, with just 2-3 of those sites, you should have more women than you know what to do with.
Best of luck

Internet/Online 'Dating' Websites for Friendship or Romance: Computer matchup lies w/ so-called real Persons
i f i was you I would save your money, join some free sites, it has been my experience that there are a lot of scammers on them . i think you are wasting your money. hope you do find some one best of luck alec
Reply:wow, you're spending a LOT of money right now... and some of those sites I believe are partly the reason why you're not getting any results. (hint: they suck)
listen, the only way is to get more results for the money you're investing.
My advice is to cut down on the # of websites you are using to not only save you money, but to up your results and be more efficient.
I'd stick to these:
1. Match
2. myspace
3. eharmoney
4. yahoo
If you do things right, with just 2-3 of those sites, you should have more women than you know what to do with.
Best of luck

NO success with online dating. Is this normal? Does it mean I'm ugly?
I'm trying to get a sense of how my success with online dating compares to other guys. I decided to give online dating a try because I work with mostly older people as a Software Engineer. I don't really have many friends either, so it's tough to meet people.
I consider myself successful compared to others my age, I make around 80,000/year at 25 years old. I am very physically active and in excellent shape and quite muscular. I'm 6foot 190lbs, six pack, everything. Everything about myself is very good except I don't have an attractive face. I'm very average and my face has a naturally serious expression to it which causes some people to think I look scary.
So on to my success online: I joined eharmony for 5 months. Most women blocked communication with me upon viewing my profile. Some talked (maybe 10%). Out of the girls that talked, only 3 agreed to schedule a date with me. One of these girls cancelled, the other went on 2 dates before rejecting me, and the other went on one.

Sounds like those women are as judgemental about your looks as you are about their weight....
Reply:I don't think it has anything to do with being better or worse than the women. A serious face, or being a little more heavy set are just characteristics that people find attractive or unattractive. So for example maybe some of those ladies you are rejecting were seen as beautiful by someone with different taste than you. Maybe if you come across as too serious and someone is looking for someone whose strength is their sense of humor they are going to look for a different profile. First of all i don't think you should take it personal that people that you don't even know don't want to be romantic with you. They don't mean it personal- i mean you don't when you reject people because of their body type right? You just know they are not right for you. Second, If you are the type of person that is seen as scary you may not make a great first impression (not sure cause i don't know you) but it would be easier to meet people not expecting to be romantic so they can get to know you first- like a coffee shop or something or a friends house...but since you don't have many friends that might be a good place to start- friends are very important...Older people are usually have children that might be your age or friends or family your age I would start by making friends there and see what happens.
Reply:Dating online is not a cure all. You've only been on the site for 5 months, give it a chance.
Reply:There is a problem here! You aren't giving everyone a chance! Rejecting the bigger women and thinking that they are all obese is wrong! I for one am a big girl but I am pretty confident and take DAMN good care of myself! I'm not lazy, I love walking and working out but I am the way I am and no matter how I try to change it, it won't. Being of one with success and admitting that you are not the hottest guy on there why are you so shallow to not want to date a women who is full figured? That is my question to you..can you answer that!? Just beacuse we are bigger than the rest does not mean that we can not and do not be loved!
Online dating is like real life. Rejection is apart of learning who you click with and who you don't. But being shallow by not giving everyone a chance is closing the door on some wonderful people! Love is taking a chance at life and no it doesn't mean that you are unattractive or that you are not going to find someone! Just don't be so closed minded and close out women who are interested in you! It is those who are interested in you that will make the relationship last longer!
So give us big girls a chance you might like what you get! E-mail me and I'll send you my picture!
Reply:I think you might want to try a service where you have more freedom contacting people (like Match.com).
Initially, my dating experience was similar to what you describe. I was successful in my 20s and I even have a tendency of giving off the appearance of being annoyed (even though I'm not). eHarmony was one of the first dating sites I tried and I experienced what you describe. A big part of my problem was this: I was meeting so few women that every time I actually got a date I stressed myself out over it, acted strange/stressed on the date, and then the woman never wanted to see me again.
I seriously doubt your looks are your problem. Also, it sounds like you're being hard on yourself by viewing a failed date as "rejection". Sometimes things just don't work out.
I would recommend looking into a few other dating services to try to generate more frequent dates. Since eHarmony "matches" people, the population of your town might be hurting you more than anything else. Also, I went on dates with people regardless of their weight. However, I believe it is important to be attracted to your partner so if you know you would never want a relationship someone overweight it might be more honest to continue doing what you are doing.

Online Dating Spam mail in Yahoo Inbox?
I've been getting online dating site spam in my regular inbox here on yahoo, its not even going to the bulk folder. Is anyone else who doesn't go to online dating sites having this problem?
Online Dating Spam mail in Yahoo Inbox?
You must have disclosed your mailbox.
Just remove it or ignore it
Reply:I get a little of everything that is unwanted. I have had porn invites, Viagra without prescription and dating services. I spam them for Yahoo but get them all the time. Try not to look at emails if you don't know the sender. Emails like that are loaded with viruses, trojans and malware. If you get a lot of spam and then get a window or pop up telling you to correct it, ignore that and don't click on it. If you react to it you will load your computer with virus. Be sure to scan your computer for threats on a regular basis and empty your Recycle Bin. Best of luck to you!!

Is online dating worth it for a 20-something female tired of the club scene & what are the best sites for that
I got out of a serious relationship a few months ago. I was madly in love %26amp; it ended suddenly and without warning as he was cheating. I'm coping and getting over it, but I had grown accustomed to having someone to come home to, snuggle with, %26amp; share stuff with. I miss it. I'm clearly not ready for anything serious right now but do like dating %26amp; getting that male attention. But at the same time, the situation with my ex has me kind of discouraged and put off by men as I thought I was going to marry this man and he turned out to be an a**hole. I'm considering checking out some online dating sites to help me get back in the game. But part of me thinks that's just pathetic and for desperate people. Not to be conceited but I would consider myself a fairly attractive person inside and out (22, intelligent, 5'5", 125lbs) %26amp; could go to the club %26amp; get some numbers but tired of that scene. Is online dating worth it or is it just desperate old guys looking to get lucky %26amp; what are good free sites?
Is online dating worth it for a 20-something female tired of the club scene %26amp; what are the best sites for that
its not for desperate people actually its for people just like yourself....LOL who dont want something serious but want to flirt and just be able to do what you want still..but always have someone to talk to...if you dont mind wasting time and you have time to waste go for it....you would be surprised how many extremely good looking people are addicted to the internet...i consider myself one of them...LOL
Reply:The best free site is
PlentyofFish.com
Reply:oh ouch! That hurts just reading it. Of all the ways to break up, that's got to be the worst...out of nowhere...because he's cheating...when you were thinking of marriage... :(
I don't know the answer to your question. If you figure it out, let me know! I'm about your age and probably on the verge of becoming single. If you have luck anywhere, let me know!
But kind of on a different note, I just wanted to say...rebounds sometimes work! A lot of my past relationships, in fact some of the very best of them, could be considered rebounds. It's legitimate to not want to be alone...I never bought into the theory that you have to get "used" to being alone before it's ok to be with someone again. How does that make sense? You just need to make sure you keep your wits about you and don't get so desperate that you go for a loser. But from the way you write and talk, I doubt that's going to be an issue for you.
Reply:Ur probably only gonna find more liars n cheaters online...cause lets be serious, who tells the truth online? Y would a dude say he's old, balding n fat if u can't see him? I think u should spend this time bettering urself cause u obviously aren' too comfortable with urself if u need male attention. Build ur confidence b4 u start dating again, whether u choose to date online or in the real world.
Reply:wow your the same age as me :)
Reply:Hi hun
1. Sorry about what happened.. that totally totally sucks..
2. In my experience w/online dating, I wouldn't recommend it. I also thought it was for desperate people and I was right!! I felt really awkward about it but now I just kind of laugh it off.. I found someone in another way.
However, maybe you could find a good site.. look out for more answers-- sites that are cool.
No harm in trying, I guess! you could always be anonymous for a while to try it out and see what kinds of people are on the site.
Reply:A friend of mine used online dating for a while he meet a few woman he liked had a good time and now is in a serious relationship with one of them. Yahoo has a personals section. I think they all charge you a little bit. There are all kinds of age ranges. Just be safe meet in public places if you don't like someone don't go out with them again. Most people using personals are not looking for a quick hook up. Just stay away from Craigslist.

Online Dating: Detailed Answers Needed?
I'm a male college student, and I have been considering online dating recently. There seems to be nobody in my area who meets my moral standards or shares my interests. Maybe it's because I'm too serious (both about life in general and about relationships in particular), but there seems to be nobody who is morally or personally compatible with me. Therefore, I think I will try out online dating. I read about OKCupid and eHarmony, which are both free matchmaking sites. Are either of these a good idea for someone who is an intellectual, Christian, extremely conservative, looking for long-term relationships EXCLUSIVELY, and not flirty or looking for someone flirty? Also, it probably doesn't matter...but I'm 19. Even so, like I said, I'm having problems. It's not that I'm unattractive (TONS of girls think I'm "cute" or "adorable"), I'm not out of shape (I get plenty of activity), and I am not some freak (I have plenty of friends). That said, please give me some advice!
Online Dating: Detailed Answers Needed?
There are other reasons why you shouldn't be Christian and extremely conservative.
Anyway, I have no idea of the effectiveness of online dating, but I suggest you go to any Christian and extremely conservative activities near you. You may have to get far enough away from your college that the activity won't have many college students because they seem to be more less religious and more liberal in general.
Reply:Online dating is fun and very effective. Okcupid is a very wonderful site with personality text and compatibility test all for 100% free. eHarmony is not one hundred 100% free. You are just 19 and if you are looking for a long-term relationship that's actually questionable. Most dating sites that are serious matchmakers will consider our age and even users will also want to question your age but then that shouldn't discourage you. You can give Yahoo personals a try, since we are already here in Yahoo zone. They have excellent dating tools and services, though it's not free but you get seven days free trial. The best thing about using Yahoo Christian singles is this, if they mess you up, you know where to find Yahoo and bug them. Alternatively you can visit http://kissnRomance.blogspot.com for more dating tips and advice.
Good luck and take care.

An online dating site that *won't* just give me local singles?
I want to start trying online dating, but I specifically want a site that isn't restricted to "singles in your area". I went to a good local school for the scholarship, but I've never been happy here and what's worse, it's in my backwater hometown.. Believe me, I have tried to date guys here; I've partied, I've been in sports and lots of groups, nothing has worked. I'm now 21 and extremely frustrated and lonely, and I will be stuck here for another semester because I had to take a medical leave of absence. Unfortunately it's too late to transfer.
Since I absolutely can't find anyone here, I want to get in touch w/ people online. I don't care if I won't get to meet them; at this point I don't even care that much about officially dating. I just want to be able to talk to guys who are interested in more than just Will Ferrell and fraternity gossip, or who aren't just trying to get me in bed so they can brag about it. What are some good sites I could try?
Please help me!
An online dating site that *won't* just give me local singles?
Kalibasa,
The good news for you is that the majority of online dating services allow you to select distance in your Preferences. Therefore you can change it to "any" and it will provide you with matches of any distance.
The bigger online dating services are Match.com, Yahoo! Personals, and eHarmony. However, if you don't want to pay a monthly fee, you might want to consider either a free online dating service (like OKcupid or PlentyofFish) or a Social Networking Site like MySpace or Facebook.
In reading your note, I'd suggest you start with a social networking site then move into online dating if you decide that you want to go beyond meeting/socializing with people online.
Best of luck to you!
Reply:I have a long list of different online dating sites you can try. Two of them are 100% free while the others will let you check out matches %26amp; try for free before upgrading to a paid membership.

Online dating tips?
Dating online is common nowadays ,could you give me some advice about online dating ?
Online dating tips?
I don't know why it's called online dating because dating happens offline...however, when getting to know people online for potential offline dates, here are some tips:
1. Represent yourself truthfully...don't act like someone you are not, don't put bogus info or pics in your profile
2. Don't give out any personal information (name, phone number, address, place of work) until you've gotten to know someone a bit...in fact, it's best not to divulge that info until after you've met and gotten an impression of them...
3. When you make arrangements to meet, do so in a public place...arrive and leave separately...don't have them pick you up or vice versa, don't let them follow you home...
4. If something seems off or too good to be true, let that be a red flag...there are plenty of honest and kewl people online, but there are also plenty who are not...use good judgement and don't believe everything you see or hear
I've known a number of couples who met online...some who've even married so the 'net is a great tool in meeting people and bringing friends and lovers together...just use it wisely and safely.
Good luck and have fun!

Online Dating--Do and Don't?!?
I joined an online dating service recently. I've been told that I'm an "8" on a scale from 1-10 but I'm not very photogenic. I saw a very attractive guy with an excellent profile so I emailed him. We virtually had the same things in common. He viewed my profile but he didn't respond back. I think he saw my picture and said "No Way!" Now, I feel silly for even joining the service. So:
#1--Do you think that he focused more on the picture than what we had in common?
#2--Should I just forget the online dating scene and just go to places where men hang out?
Online Dating--Do and Don't?!?
Ofcourse he focused on the picture sweety he is after all a MAN! Secondly you should not fell silly at all had you not taken the chance you wouldnt have known the outcome and there will be men to respond. Should you forget onlie dating I dont know, I tried it a few times met alot of frogs and met my best male friend as well as my husband (but met him in a chat room). You should however get out of the house and go meet ppl not everyone is on the net and sometimes ppl when they can see you face to face are more willing to talk then if they see a "photo" sports bars are a pretty good place to hang out more men then women...just an idea
Reply:1. i have no idea
2. yes! online dating is unsafe. if you ever do end up meeting someone in person that you met online, always make sure that you bring a friend and go to a crowded place. the last thing you want is be raped or killed.
Reply:Why do u want someone who isnt attracted to you, to like you?
Just because THEY dont think your hot, doesnt mean your NOT hot.. because everyone has different taste.. and sadly... attraction is just as important as clicking personalities.
Sad story but dont give up on online dating if u prefer that choice. Many people meet and it works out great.

Reply:No, i have heard many gr8 reports about dating services. I haven't tried because I'm paranoid I'll meet a freak of some sort. You can't judge a book by its cover huh?
# 1 question. Men are very visual creatures. Do you have a digital camera? Take heaps of pictures looking in different angles different light, then choose the best picture from them.
Keep trying with him if you want, but i would email him and ask him out. Do the face to face thing that way he will get to know the real you, not some idea of you from a picture.
Good luck!
Reply:don't do online dating!!!!!!!!! the person ur tryin to reach will either want or not want to go out w/ u for all the wrong reasons!!! when u physically meet people and they get to know u and u get to know them, thats when a relationship can have a healthy start and begin to grow. a picture and paragraph just won't cut it sweetie!
Reply:dont online date. you dont know if you're talking to a rapist or not.
Reply:well, we dont know what is on his mind, the only clear thing is that he is not interested to you, because here on net,wether any kind of online dating, you can get response easily and you can really assess easily if you attract men or not. if so when there's a lot of message you get, it means they like you and if only few it means only few also attracts with you. and it is sad to say that most people here depend on picture that you posted. but dont lose hope, your just being so sensitive. nevermind that guy, just think of this way, he is not a good catch anyway, who knows he is just a poser. or he is not really have a nice personality. you can meet diffirent types or people here, so very careful. just try again some online daiting here. what i want to say is.. just be friendly. good luck

Change dating services and try one with real people who are honest and open.
I used this one http://www.thesinglesbar.web-dating.net
And its where I met my wife, shes stunning (she still wont tell me why she ever used an online service) and well I am very average. But we took it slowly and spent time getting to know each other before we met. I think my Scottish accent had something to do with it cos she is American.
Good Luck and dont give up!!

No, don't stop just bcos of one jerk!!!
I know what it's like, when I was a bit younger, one guy made me feel like cr*p about myself. The Dating Game is a big one, you need to thicken up your skin so that these types of guys don't upset you.
In my life, I've found that really good looking guys can be arrogant (not always of course) and can really hurt sensitive girls feelings - it's just not right. Life, love and dating are just so much more than that. There are two sites that I really think you should check out, one of them is letters4love and the other one is a free online dating site.
#1 -- Who cares, he's not worth thinking about. You are who you are, whether he likes it or not
#2 -- No, a lot of guys will just be looking to hook-up, at least online you might be able to communicate at a deeper level first, choose some candidates and then go out and meet them.
Good luck girl!

Reply:I've been on numerous online sites to see what kind of women are attracted to me. And after extensive (and years) of research, the results were quite interesting on what type of women are attracted to me. but the online dating sites need to be taken all with a grain of salt. Everybody out there has different preferences on what they like in a person. I prefer a certain type of woman, but most of my girlfriends are not what I prefer, so it's different for different folks. I wouldn't think of quitting the service because of one guy. I take it serious, but on the other hand, I don't. Plus there are lots of pictures out there that aren't really who they say they are, kind of like in real life, huh?
With online dating sites, the one thin I do like is that you're kind of forced to communicate and get to know each other before actually meeting someone face to face. A picture is only that, an image frozen before you. To get to know that person, you're going to have to communicate with them for a bit. That forces you to get to know them first, if it works, great. If it doesn't, press on.
Reply:Forget online dating. It's good in the sense that you connect on a more personal level before sex can ruin it, but at the same time when you connect that well you eventually get driven insane. It's good to have differences and not always get along. Anyway, don't do it.

Online Dating Nightmares?
Does anyone have any online dating nightmares. I've been to a few sites and there are some pretty interesting people out there in the "online dating world". I've actually joined a few sites to see what kind of woman was attracted to me. I did research on one site for about 6 months, pasted a picture, wrote a good description of myself to see what I'd attract. Any good stories out there, curious and interested.
Online Dating Nightmares?
Ive only had one online dating nightmare, the guy turned out to be someone totally different then i thought, but i took a friend along with me the first time i met him. I know this one good site that i met a really great guy on that im now seeing. Its called www.SinglesNet.com. You can type in ur zip code in and find singles in ur area after u make ur profile and stuff. Its a really good site you should check it out.
Reply:None here, just be careful and make sure you know what you are getting into!

Online dating? good idea?
i've been pretty disappointed with the dating opportunities i've had lately. when i get set up by a friend, things don't seem to work out and i've seemed to have gone through all the guys in my pool of acquaintances. i am considering going to an online dating site like match.com. anyone had good experiences with this sort of thing? any good tips for a new online dater? by the way, i'm in my twenties if that makes a difference.
Online dating? good idea?
I do not think online dating is good because you do not know if they're a nut-case deep inside. If you date them they will learn to much informaiton about you and could become a serious problem for you once it falls apart.
You would probably do better going out to places you haven't to meet new people that you haven't met yet. Don[t forget = no matter where you go there are always chances to meet new people and forge new relationships.

Reply:I keep answering your questions because they are interesting..lol I'm not crazy or anything though. I have tried the online dating and it was a waste of time and money. I think a lot of people aren't truthful on there and they like to play games. I would like to talk to you sometime if you are interested. I don't know how to on here though. I'm good looking, funny and easy going. If not I can completely understand why.. good luck
Reply:i dont think online dating is a good idea cause it could end up being someone ttly different. i think u should just wait for ur oppertunity for a guys to come along. ur young someone good should end up coming along and be ur forever soul mate.

Online Dating w/someone in another state...?
Okay, I've been corresponding with this guy online and telephone since April. We're talking about finally meeting and going out on a date, because we want this to work. He wants me to fly out to where he lives to see him, and he will pay for one way and I'll pay the other way. The thing is, that I'm just getting settled into my new place and I have things I need to get for my home for me and my daughter. He knows this, but offers to help me out with also. So I really can't afford a plane ticket although I do want to go out with him... I'm taking things a step at a time, because I wanna be cautious and make sure I know what I'm getting into before I get into anything. What do you think...any advice or words of wisdom? Can online dating really turn into True Love?
Online Dating w/someone in another state...?
yes!
i met ,my husband on hi5he lived in a different state
he was african im irish/mexican
we are madly in love and i was so cautious too but i swear it was worth it
and i could not picture life without him
online dating works
good luck : )
Reply:wow, for a moment there i thought i was reading a script of 'to catch a predator', until you mentioned your daughter and having a place of your own. why doesn't he go to you? he could get a room and a rental so he could meet you at restaurants or wherever. that way he doesn't know where you live. at the same time all you have to do is get a baby-sitter for a few hours or so. i know moving into a place hurts or bank account so this might be the best way.
as far as true love, i've noticed that the divorce rate is high now a days and that a lot of people are just waiting to settle down. i don't know either of your ages or history so i don't want to make any other suggestions that you might have already thought of. my experience, a relationship is what you make of it. you can do all the talking and set all the rules but your actions are going to tell whither or not you want it. remember, things are usually good in the beginning.......but people do change. there's a difference between your 'wants' and your 'needs'.

Online Dating sites...what's the use?!?
Online dating sites are a complete rip-off! Except for one site that I know of that is free (plentyoffish.com), all of the sites make you pay to be able to email someone (understandable), but the catch is that the person you are writing to has to be a paying "member" also. Similarly, on some sites, someone may write you, but unless you pay, you can't even see the profile of the person who has an interest in you, let alone make a reply. So unless you sign up for some high cost, automatic-renewal-trap contract, you can't respond to a person that has already paid to be able to speak to you. This situation basically makes online dating a complete joke. If a person pays a site to transmit their message to someone, then it should be made law that that message is delivered regardless of whether or not the receiver is a paying member. This practice is as assenine as having to pay to receive a call from someone...but at least cell phone providers are finally (slowly) coming around on that score
Online Dating sites...what's the use?!?
That is sooo funny. Here's why. I agree w/you completely. I have always been the person who always said that I will "never PAY for an online dating service". Yes, I'm on plentyoffish and a couple others that are free, *Mate1 is free for women by the way. Anyway, I had a message on yahoo personals just yesterday, I got my 1-time free response, and this guy and his message and profile intrigued me so much that I found myself actually going against all my previously (longtime) stated "I'll NEVER PAY FOR ONLINE". Effective today I am a paying member of yahoo personals (but will only participate for one month) just so that I can make a connection to this person and plainly reply to his email and let him know that I am also interested. My calendar has already been marked to terminate the contract March 10th!!!! Not necessarily an answer for you but maybe some humor.... (I told myself, "Self, $25 in the grand scheme of life and possibly finding Mr Right just may be worth it this one time.") Maybe February 14th this year won't be the 'Black Wednesday' I thought it would.........good luck. I sure in hell hope he turns out to be worth the $25 bucks!! If not, then I'll have to do double time to find someone else before the membership runs out..lol

Reply:Well, you could look at it this way. You never would have met or had access to the person you want to communicate with if the online dating site had not been available to link you together. They are providing a service and should be paid for the service they provide. True, they do charge a lot of money, but there is a lot of overhead in maintaining a website, paying web designers, paying the salaries of the customer service reps who answer the phones or respond to e-mails from members who visit the site, etc. Each dating site varies by price. I knew I would have to pay in order to meet the matches that were sent to me and to be able to communicate to them through the website's e-mail system. Still, their system was highly organized, was user friendly, gave lots of useful information and advice, and it provided a safe way to get to know someone before actually meeting them face to face. The website I am talking about is e-Harmony.com, and I am engaged and will be getting married soon to a wonderful man I would not have ever met, were it not for the website that I paid for. You have to weigh the pros with the cons. If the good outweighs the bad, then spend a little money. You would spend money to go to a ballgame or a movie, or go out to eat, and there is no guarantee your team will win, the movie will be good, or the food won't come back to haunt you later. At least for the price of a couple of movies or meals, you can try these sites for a month or two and maybe meet the person you are looking for. Shouldn't a lifemate or someone you could fall in love with be worth spending the money on, more than some quick entertainment?
P.S. - No disrespect intended to the person above me, but it doesn't make you a loser or pathetic to go to these online dating sites. It's a safe way to screen out people without wasting your time. I am attractive, have a nice personality, am witty and fun. I'm not being conceited - I'm just saying I wasn't desperate. I went to e-Harmony because I had just gone through a terrible divorce. They had a free personality questionnaire, and I thought it would give me some useful insight into my personality so that when I WAS ready to date again, I would not pick someone like my ex-husband. Right away they sent me matches, and one of those turned out to be someone who is the most awesome man and is SO compatible with me in every way. We've been together for a year. I was far from desperate. I wasn't even trying to find someone, and by doing a personality questionnaire, I met the man of my dreams.

They had a free personality questionnaire, and I thought it would give me some useful insight into my personality so that when I WAS ready to date again, I would not pick someone like my ex-husband. Right away they sent me matches, and one of those turned out to be someone who is the most awesome man and is SO compatible with me in every way. We've been together for a year. I was far from desperate. I wasn't even trying to find someone, and by doing a personality questionnaire, I met the man of my dreams.
