Online dating seems to be shedding its taboo status in recent years; people are completely shameless in their pursuit of happiness. Advertisements for Match.com and the like are saturating television screens across the country. Despite the boom in online dating, there must be some experiences that put people off it forever. And [...]Sun, 05 Jul 2009 20:18:31 +0000

In walked Van, wearing a beret, looking squeaky clean behind the ears, and ready to deliver something or another.
“Why don’t you come out of the shadows? What do you really look like? You’re afraid of something, aren’t you?”
Why did this sound so familiar? Where had I heard this before? I thought for [...]Mon, 08 Jun 2009 03:34:34 +0000

I am a 28 male software engineer from Gujarat, India. It was recently when I gave in for marriage after resisting it for years and my parents started searching a girl for me, and as expected within a few weeks they fixed my meeting with this girl who was, according to my [...]Fri, 29 May 2009 17:01:59 +0000

As a transfer student at the University of Minnesota, I was always looking for ways to make new friends. I decided to take a Tae Kwon Do class where I could meet people while also tucking a new skill under my belt.
One of my girlfriends in another class of mine urged me [...]Sat, 02 May 2009 20:32:55 +0000

The date was going pretty well thus far. My partner had not yet screamed at the sight of me and run off into the night (always a good first indicator) and here we were, moving on to our second venue of the evening.
I had one problem: this girl was a Christian. The reason [...]Sat, 04 Apr 2009 17:10:14 +0000

I thought I had seen it all. During my years of on-again, off-again online dating, I felt as if I had earned an honorary phD in dating psychology (or should I say a purple heart?). The upfront-leech, the alcohol-pushing leech, mama’s boy, social odd-ball, bitter misogynist, you name it, I’ve [...]Tue, 24 Mar 2009 03:41:38 +0000

I just heard a funny story from a friend of mine that met a girl on a popular dating site. We’ll call it yardmatch.com. You’ll see why. My friend, we’ll call him Gerry, received a response to his ad on yardmatch from Cindy (not her real name). They arrange an early lunch at [...]Thu, 05 Feb 2009 05:52:42 +0000

“I dated a guy who was a bit of a handful. His emotional stability varied hour by hour and often swung wildly between loving euphoria and numbed depression. We broke up, got back together, broke up, got back together ad nauseam for more than a year and a half. It only recently ended [...]Mon, 05 Jan 2009 23:39:56 +0000

Importance of Being Earnest… or at least the importance of using proper table manners as a way to get the date off to a good solid start.
I happened to be in Chicago this weekend for a writers workshop at Second City. While I was there I wanted to play around downtown. Shopping [...]Wed, 10 Dec 2008 02:33:29 +0000

I was 12 years older than him, but we didn’t know it. It was a long time ago, and I’ll always think I almost married him - white picket fence and all.
I met him in a computer store, in the early days of computers, when I was an actress writing screenplays, [...]Tue, 02 Sep 2008 00:17:05 +0000

Anyone who’s dipped their toes into the murky waters of the on-line dating scene will sprint away from the tide after learning that while there are plenty of fish in the sea, there are also plenty of nets. While learning about how the seamy underbelly of electronic dating is really manipulated, this [...]Fri, 22 Aug 2008 03:49:21 +0000

As a 28 year old living in Chicago, I admit that I absolutely use text messaging to communicate with friends, family, and co-workers. For me, texting is great for sending and receiving short messages to and from people I already know. It’s perfect for corresponding with basic questions: where are you, what [...]Sat, 09 Aug 2008 03:54:04 +0000

In my last article, “The Dealbreaker, ” someone posted a comment suggesting my next one be about “DealMAKERS.” I thought that was a great idea. Instead of being so negative, and discussing how guys can turn us off, I wanted to show some ways in which guys can turn us ON. So now, [...]Fri, 18 Jul 2008 08:04:06 +0000

Charles was one of those friends like dried meat; he will last forever if you keep it right. It was no wonder that when I told him I was back in the city he excitedly invited me to his birthday party. I had really wanted to finally meet his fiancé. The [...]Wed, 09 Jul 2008 05:05:54 +0000

To say that internet dating has changed being single is an understatement. Heck, it’s even changed cheating. One searches the other’s email, text messages, voicemail, IM, MySpace, Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, whatever, and busts them.
Online dating harbors little of the stigma it once did. One is no longer labeled a loser for using [...]Sun, 25 May 2008 03:43:51 +0000

“It’s Okay to Look.” Only in certain contexts and situations could this slogan be construed as a truthful notion in the dating scene. In everyday conversations this phrase gets tossed around by men and women in relationships talking amongst their friends about the “hottie” they saw the other day in the [...]Tue, 15 Apr 2008 16:18:23 +0000

Wow! Not only is your online date good looking, suave, well-dressed, but a rock star/investment banker/rocket scientist? Sounds too good to be true — and, chances are — it might not be true at all. From my year or so of online dating, I’ve learned how to sort the good [...]
