One of my good friends has met all of her boyfriends from online dating services. While some of the online relationships work out and some don't last more than a few weeks, she is obsessed with online dating. It gives her the opportunity to know a little bit more about someone before she goes on a date with them. Another plus is the ability to set preferences on what type of person you are looking for.
She has been using eHarmony to meet new men for about two years now. When I had dinner with her last night she mentioned how she was considering making profiles on some different dating sitesjust incase her Mr. Right is a subscriber to one of the many other online dating websites that exist today.
While I have never used online dating myself, I have seen it lead to wonderful relationships for many of my friends. There are dating websites out there for almost anyone looking for love. There are online dating sites specifically made for interracial and minority dating such as black singles, jewish singles, christian singles, singles over 50, gay and lesbian singles, and any other single men or single women searching for that perfect someone.
While there are many free online dating services, other websites will charge you a monthly fee to be a member. Some of the free dating sites include PlentyOfFish, Chemistry and DateHookUp. Other popular dating sites include Match, eHarmony, LavaLife, and Yahoo! Personals.

I'm sorry to hear the rumors about SJP. But can you really believe what you read anymore, especially about celebrities. Maybe this was a ploy to cover the news of her cosmetic surgery.

I love eHarmony http://www.eharmony.com. I did meet a few guys that were a little uptight but am now dating a very cute fun accountant (I know a fun accountant..how rare!)and we moved in together last week. I tried some of the other sites and was disappointed. It is weird how many men lie about their height! Anyway I joined through an online website that gives you discounts on about 300 stores and tells you about unlisted discount codes. I saved 32.5% on my eharmony fee. The site is http://www.fatcrumbs.com and I also found out about a special sale at Saks online.

How about for the more mature generation? I've found seniorfriendfinders.com to be very user friendly.

You stated that these sites were free(Match, eHarmony, LavaLife, and Yahoo! Personals). That is not true.

I have used plentyoffish.com and met the man of my dreams he is very kind hearted and i'm so glad a friend told me about the site him and I have been together for 2 years now and are talking about getting married .

A word to the wise...Beware Singlesnet....the name should be "GREEDNET." They like to bill your credit card....and bill it and bill it and bill it.
For peace of mind, look up the complaints on a site before joining. Good Luck boys and girls ;)

I highly recommend Match.com. I met my soulmate there and we never would have crossed paths otherwise. I dated for two years online before I met him and had a great time with it. It's important to know that not every date you go on will be with "the one." So have fun, be honest and upfront and YOURSELF, and that gives your date the freedom to do the same. It's soooo worth it! I never believed this kind of love and connection with someone would be possible...that it only existed in fairy-tales and movies. Well, we just got engaged, and I couldn't be happier...THANK YOU, MATCH.COM!!! :-)

I recommend Match.com. I met my soulmate on that site two years ago and we just got engaged! I had a great time dating on Match for about two years before I met him. It's important to have a good attitude, be yourself and be mature about it! I know that not everyone you meet will be "the one" and I was always up front and honest, and MYSELF, and allowed others to be the same. I couldn't be happier and if not for Match, we probably never would have met. I only thought this kind of love and connection (on every level!!!) only existed in fairy-tales, movies, etc. Not anymore...THANK YOU, MATCH.COM!!! :-)

Singlesnet is really good from what I hear. Ironically the one, that has gone downhill is match. Several years ago, friends of mine met some great people. Now half the profiles are fake. One guy friend of mine who is the epitome of most women's dreams, really good looking, financially secure, etc was burnt out on dating people he knew so he posted an add on match. He got very few responses, profile looks, etc. He joined another site and went out on dates with tons of real women almost immediately. How is he was mister popularlity on one site but not match.com? Bottom line, watch out paying a lot of money to meet someone.

Sorry, there are real asses and dicks on all of them! I'm still looking after 15 years. There really aren't any real, honest, accomplished men out there. It's a figment of our imagination. Makes a woman ponder going to the other side. What choices do you give us guys? :(

I tried the online dating thing for about two years and sadly discovered that most of it is merely hogwash and a waste of money. You get a lot of people lying about their age, weight, height, income, etc.. Only met one or two folks who seemed presentable (both on FREE sites), but unfortunately neither one turned out to be my cup of tea.

Just whatever you do, STAY AWAY from "Great Expectations". They are nothing but scammers and have multiple lawsuits filled against them
for improper billing, and use of private information. YES, they SELL your information

Plentyoffish.com is a wonderful site.
After one date that lasted an hour and was 59 minutes too long, I met a wonderful man and we have been together for over a year.
We plan on marrying in the not to distant future.

I tried PlentyofFish and Singlesnet, and I got great results with Singlesnet. I found a guy on Singlesnet whom I am now engaged to. I guess it depends for certain people, sometimes the luck is there and sometimes its not, but search hard and your hard work will be rewarded.

I have tried most dating sites even though I am only 18 years old, it's not that I can't go up to girls/women because I have gone up to waitresses and given them my number. But I feel a little better going to even if it's just dinner knowing that much more about the person, it's easier to strike up a conversation and like they said you can set preferences on some of the sites on who can actually email you. I currently us PlentyOfFish.com and really have found somee really great women on it. I have used DateHookUp.com and would suggest both of these sites to anyone that is not only searching for there soul mate but maybe searching for a friend to talk to. With the easy to use features of POF it made it easier for me to find women looking to find friends in my area. It might sound strange for a 18 year old to be saying this but if your really looking for a special someone try it you just might find that person!

I used a lot of dating sites, but met the man I ended up marrying on Plentyoffish. That's a great site and at least at the time I was using it it was free.

I found the online dating a means for men to keep thing impersonal, Also a venue for people wanting to cheat on their mate. I have been deceived by cheating husband and boyfriend repeatedly. If you are looking for something real you will not find it through online dating. Men only want a hook up and no commitment long relationships. Men between 40 to 60 are want a sexual encounter and nothing more. If they are not cheating they are so damaged divorce men that are weak and insecure are looking for hook up only. I feel that online dating is the worse invention and dehumanizing experience.
