Free Dating Services

“You get what you pay for” especially when it comes to online dating services.

While participating in the online dating market, I began to comb through the free services and did so for a few weeks.  It didn’t take long for me to realize that I was looking for bargains in love when I was trying to convince myself not to settle for less then what I wanted.

Kind of an oxymoron – don’t you think?

Here I was, a single mother that couldn’t get out and hit the single scene much and was trying to find the hidden treasure in the clearance isle of online dating.  I wasn’t exactly sending out the message I wanted my soul mate to receive and I certainly wasn’t receiving any messages that were worth the time of day.

It’s not that I expected my potential love interests to spend a fortune on me, but rather take their search for love serious enough to cough up a few bucks on the hunt.

Any single that is willing to spend $20 plus per month on the online dating circuit is bound to be more serious about the pursuit then Joe Schmoe who hangs out on Bargain Basement Hook-ups.  It’s also been determined through various polls that the person you correspond with is truly single and not married looking for a little side action.

The online dating services with the strongest and most proven track record are:

Match.com - True.com - PerfectMatch.com - eharmony.com

How much are you willing to give to find your near perfect match?

I’d be interested in hearing the experiences of others on various online dating sites — whether it’s good, bad or impartial, I’d like to hear all about it!
