Does match.com (or similar sites) really work?

All depends. Do you want to meet people and have fun? Sure, they work great. Do you want marriage? It may work for that too, but it is a lot less likely. People do find their husband or wife on there at times, but 95% of the time people just find some fun dates. Kind of more Mr. (or Ms.) Right-Now, not as much Mr. (or Ms.) Right.

I can tell you from experience that you can find great women via Craigslist.\n\nI have met more attractive women via my ads there.\n\nI can't speak on Match.com\n\nBest of luck,\nJeffrey

E harmony sounds good but that is a personality dating site. Depends on what type of people you want to date too. My brother uses adultfriendfinder.com. it has pictures and i think a chat room and webcam on there. but i think yahoo is pretty good. match.com. well there are some few.

I have had very good success using the White Pages on-line.  I have been able to find people that I had lost contact with for years.  It is certainly worth a try it was for me.

Yes, they can work.  My husband, whom I met on line, and I are approaching our 5 year wedding anniversary so you can have a long term commitment from one.  I think the better sites are the ones that have you fill out a profile and then match based on personality - In my singles days udate.com was one.  I never used eharmony since we were together before it came out, but it appears to follow the same format.\n\nBefore I met my hubby I dated a handful of guys from sites (don't remember exact number but it was probably around 8) and I never had a bad experience.\n\nThe key is to treat this just like you would dating someone off-line.  Pick people that are geographically close to you and after a few emails you should start meeting in person.  I think it's crazy when people claim they are madly in love with someone they've only emailed.  If after a few emails the other person is leery of meeting you in a public place (another necessity just to be safe) or at least talking on the phone I'd worry if that person was married or completely different from the way they were portraying themselves.\n\nHope this helps.

I have dated a few guys on line. My advice is this. Stay away from sites that are free. Pay the $25 usually men who are willing to pay are more genuine and are looking for a real relationship.  I have met a few crazies but 90% are nice men who are either shy or just busy with work

Can you trust any match making site?  Sure, you can meet people there, but you can meet people anywhere.  He makes you think there's some deeper level of compatibility matching at e-harmony.  But, in reality, it's no different than any other match making site.  You toss your name into a hat, and sometimes you win, but most times you lose.\n\nGood luck.

Match.com That's where I found my current boyfriend. He was my second date (didn't hit if off with the first guy) and we've been dating for 7 months... I have a feeling we'll be engaged by the end of the year :)))  It's really easy and LOTS of people find love there. Good luck!!

YESSSSSSSSS there is one that i know of.  it's called plentyoffish.com and it's website is www.plentyoffish.com.  it's free to make a profile and free to contact other members.  it's a really good dating site b/c it is basically what the pay site would offer but it is free.  the problem is that since it's off the internet everyone is soo cautious that it is easy to chat online but nearly impossible to go out on a date.  i found meeting people through friends or even randomly at local bars is much better than internet dating.\n\nonce again your answer is yes and the site is www.plentyoffish.com  if you join you must be nice to all otherwise dont bother.
