Poll question: Single DU'ers...Rate the Personal Dating Sites ---

I don't know .... seems a lot of people are out there doing this.

1. OKCupid is a good one.

Good for networking in general.

*edit* Oh, and it's free. :P Always a plus.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

3. Thanks. I will add it.

2. i'm liking POF

esp the 'free' part.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

4. good to know.

thanks. Free works with my budget ;)

5. I hates 'em all

tried Match.com, Yahoo, and one other I can't remember. Had a couple short-term things, got taken, got my heart broken, etc. I've given up, as I've decided there's better ways to meet people (volunteering, friends, coworkers, etc.)

6. I agree with you

:)

And there's always DU... ;)

8. heynow...

been there, done that, still good friends thank God. If it weren't for the distance we'd probably be together but neither one of us is in a position to relocate. S'aright, at this stage in my life I need friends more than I need the other thing :)

[lizziegrace]

11. Same here

friends first and always. :)

17. www.nerve.com

[Tuesday Afternoon]

19. thanks ...

I will check it out.

28. Worked for me which is why I'm not single anymore

I think it's part of a network, ie, the ads appear on other sites like The Onion and Salon.

I responded to one ad.

I met the person two days later.

Married her a couple years after that.

Really.

9. The DU Lounge is the best dating site.

27. Easy for you to say, with half the female population in the world going to sleep,

clutching their printed-out picture of you in your garanimal pajama bottoms
and dreaming unseemly dreams...

[Tuesday Afternoon]

13. really?

Good on you :toast:

[Deja Q]

15. What have you lot been doing behind my innocent, scab encrusted back?

(psoriasis sux)

[In_The_Wind]

18. The guys on Match.com seem to be on lots dating sites.

:shrug:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

20. I think a lot of people are on several sites at once...like playing

the odds, I guess

[In_The_Wind]

22. I just wish they were more willing

to leave the safety of their keyboards for a cup of coffee in real life.
I've grown weary of cyber relationships going nowhere.

Are there any real men left out there?

[Tuesday Afternoon]

23. If I find one -- I will let you know.

A lot of poseurs out there for sure. A lot of ego stroking.

[In_The_Wind]

24. Dating sites remind me of singles bars.

people trying to get numbers just to see if they can



I'm getting soooo tired of players.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

25. Yeah... I know what you mean.

Tired of the players and tired of the games. ;)

21. Other: I met my boyfriend on chemistry.com, which was started

by match.com for people interested in LTRs. I also met some interesting men on match, and my cousin met her new husband there.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

26. Yeah. Chemistry, I forgot about that one.

I always think of it as Match...it is different though.
