I've heard SO many negative things about those so-called Dating Sites. I would never pay for them. There's plenty of friendly free sites to check out, in hopes of meeting someone. I would advise anyone to check out "reviews" of any of them so-called Dating Sites. That'll save ya alot of money. They're just a waste of time and money.

It can be both. There are many times I enjoy having the freedom to do what I want, eat what I want, watch whatever I like on TV, etc but ... then there are times when I want to share those with someone. It's a catch-22 situation

I'm single, but I feel complete. May be because I belong to a large family, have lots of nieces and nephews, and I have lots of friends. I don't feel there's a void in my life. I'm happy as I am. There are times that I'm alone but not necessarily lonely.

I am single and I enjoy being like that . I am so busy with my real life and online work that I hardly find time to think otherwise . I live with my parents and I love to be the way I am now . I can understand your feelings though . Actually if work pressure is too much you hardly get time to think over all this . Rest I put in God's hand . Sorry I have no idea about dating sites and I am personally not in favor of choosing someone from the virtual world . May be I am wrong but I am appreg=hensive in this case . Hope you find someone nice for you soon All the best

Hi Norris, For me, being single isn't easy. I'm the kind of person who craves to love and be loved. I think most of it has to do with being a single mom, and having a dad that was never around or never cared about me when I was growing up. I actually do feel a void. I get lonely often, I am an only child, and all my friends are working and have someone while doing their own thing. Ever since my best friend got into her relationship, I don't see her. She's always hanging out with his friends and such. I know if I were in a relationship, I wouldn't neglect my friends, but that's another story lol. I've been on plenty of dating sites and none of them seemed to work because I am never given a fair chance. Not only are these guys talking to me, but they are talking to several women whioh doesn't give me a chance to really sit down and talk to them. And yes, they do lie. Most of them put an occupation down when in fact they do side jobs or are just unemployed altogether. One thing I must say though is that back in 2002, I went into a chatroom and found a guy. He was the love of my life and we were together for a few years. Things didn't end up working out and of course I got my heart broken, but I said all this to say that online dating is honestly a hit or miss! Good luck! :)

I met my husband in Dominican cupid, in 2008 and we have a wonderful marriage, but the problem sometimes is not the site, the problem is the people and his intentions,for example I ahve a lot of friends that have tried to find a couple in that site and only found people with bad intentions. So depends, put your expectations in God hands like I did and God will do.

In my opinion, being single is a good thing. I don't have think of anybody, I don't have to ask permission if I'm going somewhere or if I'm going home late lol . But I guess you will also feel sad when you are single, like if you want to be cuddly with someone, or if you want to be loved . I don't believe in any dating site out there. Getting a boyfriend from a website for me is not a good thing, you will never know what kind of a person that guy is, if he telling the truth, or his real attitude. I know someone who got married with her bf from online dating site. After a couple of months, they divorced because the guy is hurting her.

being single for me is good in some cases. like no responsibilities, no worries.etc.etc...... however, i felt sad at times specially when seeing some couple walking along the park or malls. but, what other couple( not married) specially boys says, when entering a relationship you must have money to spend for your datings. relationships are expensive. now, im not looking for the perfect one because there no such. what im looking is the ryt one for me.

i have been single for quite a while and i can say that i have learned a lot of things from it. i have focused on things which are of high priority like family and myself. also i had time for my friends but mostly for myself. because with the last relationship i had, my world was focused on that person that i completely forgot about loving myself, that when the time came that we had to separate ways, i didn't know how to begin again with my life. when i learned about this dating sites, i explored and talked to people for a while thinking that i might meet someone. however, nothing beats having to spend time with that person face to face and not by means of technology. but as i explore the opportunities on cyberspace i fortunately met the love of my life on facebook. and i must say, combining social network sites and being able to spend time with them personally works!
