As February draws to a close, I think about how this month is considered the "Valentine's" month. So many people put a lot of stock into Valentine's Day (or as I like to call it-"Single Awareness Day") and it puts me into a thoughtful mood concerning why we consider it to be so important. I don't mean to belittle the idea that sharing your love with someone is not important, I'm just wondering why we can't just do that type of thing more when there isn't a day to help us remember. Is this just my single status talking? Which brings me to the question:
Should I put myself back on an online dating site (or two)?
I have already been on LDS Mingles. For a little over two years, I put my profile on, web mailed new people from the site, and got out of my comfort zone to go on some dates. I met some very nice people and had some good experiences. I left the site due to money issues, but also because it wasn't going anywhere. There were some major weird guys on there, believe me.
I also tried Eharmony. BIG MISTAKE! Not only does it suck the financial savings right out from under you, but there were few matches for an LDS girl that would love to be married in the temple. I was matched with a guy in Las Vegas who sounded very nice, but when I talked to him on the phone, he spent most of it talking about his job (he has some sort of thing with music) and he sang a portion of something he was writing. Entertaining, yes. Falling head over heels, heck no!
So here is where it stands. I am considering going back on and I would love your input on if I should and if so, which one (or two). I've been thinking about match.com or chemistry.com, but again, I wonder about LDS matches.
Could you give me some advice?
