soul mate? online? don’t go into it with such high expectations. better to be surprised anyway.
if you’re really that serious, try one that you pay for like match.com maybe… if not, (idk where you are) but okcupid.com is a popular one in many US cities
welcome to fluther!
Good luck finding a dating site that built on lies and wishful thinking and 10-year-old photographs that were flattering 10 years ago.
Your soulmate?? No such thing.
Perhaps going outside to some place where you can meet people who share your interests would do.
Second vote for okcupid.com although only met one person from there – and she’s awesome. Plentyoffish.com is another free one. I maintain an account on both because I like meeting new people, regardless of whether I’m single or not.
@frdelrosario that doesn’t happen very often, and when it does it’s kind of obvious. If you have decent standards, and look out for personality dimensions more or just as much, you’ll be able to easily filter the legit from the non-legit.
I don’t really believe in soul mates per se – but there’s a lot of potential matches out there. Have fun, but learn to be happy with yourself first. Then share said happiness and double the fun.. in your exploration.
Best of luck :)
Join okcupid and never look back.
Once you sift through the usual suspects, you can strike gold. I did.
@phoebusg : do you find pleantyoffish a pain to navigate? i joined a while ago and never filled out a profile because i found the site to be so annoying to use!! but when i saw your comment here i filled out a profile… i’m still trying to navigate it.
I have been trying match, eharmony and chemistry for the last month now. I have a 3 month plan with each. Ironically I met someone in person (not online) just recently but we are not serious yet. What I can tell you is if you are a guy I would steer clear of match, do not expect any woman to email or wink you first on this site, on top of that only expect 1 response for every 50 you send out. Chemistry is dead, nothing happening there and you are extremely limited with the navigation on that site. I have been having success with eharmony, I have received several emails from women first on here, several winks and the messages I have sent out I get a half decent amount of replies back. I am not saying you will have the same results I had with each site so that is up to you to decide. I am new to online dating sites myself but I figured (since I have the money) that I would try all 3 of these sites just for the heck of it (and to increase my odds).
I would go with eharmony, at least from my experience. I am at the emailing stage with 2 women right now. It is a lengthy process and not easy. I would answer the long questionaire truthfully so you get the best matches. I am somewhat skeptical of their “29 dimensions” testing method but I had more luck here so far. I heard bad things about some of the free sites like Plenty of Fish. I do not know about any other dating sites. Online dating isn’t easy either. Ironically I just asked this same question a little over a month ago. I didn’t get any responses so I tried all 3 of the big ones.
@Samantha_Rae may be, but it’s the most popular where I’m from. I like okcupid’s interface a lot, it’s fun to use simply due to that. But POF has a ton more people. The guy who made it, from BC (Canada) did it as a project to learn web programming – and yes, it’s still his little learning project. Somehow it took on
Try singlesnet.com. I met some nice people on there. When I was single.
