Are Women the Only Ones Online for Love?

August 29th, 2007

If you’re a woman that’s online looking for love, it can certainly seem like you’re in good company…with other women, that is. There are millions of single women waiting to find their true love online, but not nearly enough good single men are there to meet them.

This is causing some difficulties for women – understandably.

But instead of thinking that you’re going to stay single forever, maybe you need to go beyond the internet and start branching out to find your soul mater.

This might include going to singles mixers and trying speed dating. Though these might not score you a date, you might meet new friends that have ex boyfriends that might be right for you.

The internet is a great place to get your feet wet in the dating game gain, but when you want to find someone now, you need to start getting offline and back into the dating scene.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that you can’t still use online dating; in fact, there’s no reason to stop. Keeping your options open is actually the best way to increase your chances of success – so get out there and online.

The numbers are going to work in your favor when you stop being narrow and start casting your net in as many directions as possible.

YouDate?

August 14th, 2007

When YouTube decided to dip its hands into the online dating scene, no one expected an online dating show from a YouTube member.

Brandon Fletcher’s inside look into the world of online dating wasn’t supposed to be something that drew a large crowd. In fact, Fletcher tried to tell YouTube at one point, only to be shunned in his attempts.

With his site, Dateunknown.com, Fletcher has gotten a deal with YouTube for his video ideas. And while the future of this show is unknown for most of the general public, the sensation that YouTube is makes it a veritable hit before it even gets off the ground.

This show is going to document the real life dates of those that have used online dating during weekly episodes. And there’s no telling there this might lead.

Documentary or simply reality TV in another direction? That’s for the viewer to decide. For now, we’ll just say that there are a lot of strange people dating out there – and that Fletcher may have exposed a great many of them.

Awkward first dates on display for all to see – that’s something that’s like a car crash you just can’t turn away from. And it’s certain to get people talking about the horrors of dating.

Survival of the Hottest?

July 25th, 2007

In this world where beauty seems to be the ideal, it’s no surprise that some online dating sites are capitalizing on this trend. At DarwinDating.com, it’s all about the survival of the ‘hottest’ where only beautiful people can sign up and meet other equally beautiful people.

All you have to do is sign up – and then hope that others vote you in as ‘hot enough’ to be a part of this young, hip, and happening group of would be daters.

Sound restrictive? It is. The main concern with Darwin Dating is that while it sounds like it’s taking itself a bit too seriously, it really thinks that it’s cornering the market on those that value superficial looks above all else. And in this day and age, maybe that’s what people are looking for.

It sounds like a bunch of silliness to those that want to find love in someone who simply shares the same values as themselves, who wants to respect and love them for whoever they are. But for those that are tired of finding certain groups of people on the dating sites they’re currently using, this might be the perfect fit.

I guess that if you’re going to say that there’s a dating site for everyone, you need to include a dating site for everyone – even if the pretty people all want to hang out by themselves and talk about how pretty they are.

Do you have any comments, complaints or something to say about DarwinDating.com? Did you meet someone special on this site? If so, we’d love to hear from you. Your opinion matters!
